John Segrave, 2nd Baron Segrave (1256-1325) was an English commander in the First War of Scottish Independence.
Segrave commanded the English in Battle of Roslin, and the Battle of Happrew. He also was involved with the execution of William Wallace, and was the one who carried his quarters to their destinations in Scotland. He died a wealthy man.
Born 20 July, about 1256 (aged 39 in 1295), he was the son and heir of Nicholas de Segrave, 1st Baron Segrave, and his wife Maud, daughter of Geoffrey de Lucy, Knt., of Newington, Kent, Cublington, Buckinghamshire, Dallington and Slapton, Northamptonshire, etc., by his wife, Nichole. In 1270 John married Christian, daughter of Sir Hugh de Plescy (son of John du Plessis, 7th Earl of Warwick), Knt., of Hook Norton, Headington, and Kidlington, Oxfordshire, Stottesden, Shropshire, Kidderminster, Worcestershire, etc., by his 1st wife, Isabel, daughter and co-heiress of John Biset. Christian's maritagium included the manor of Stottesdon, Shropshire. At the same time, his sister Amabel married Hugh's son, John de Plescy. After his father-in-law's death, John de Segrave had custody of his lands during the minority of his heir.
...
Death
On 16 July 1324 Segrave was appointed Seneschal of Gascony and with Fulk FitzWarin, was captain of the troops going to Gascony, serving under Edmund of Woodstock, Earl of Kent. Next year he died in Aquitaine, aged nearly 70 years old. The extent of the Segrave territories and influence had been much widened during his lifetime. His father's estates were nearly confined to the central midland counties, but he also acquired territory in Norfolk, Oxfordshire, Huntingdonshire, and other shires. In 1301 he had licence to crenellate his house at Bretby, Derbyshire, and in 1306 to fortify his manor-house at Caludon, Warwickshire, with a moat and embattelled wall.

In return he had a grant of the manor of Lodene, Norfolk. In 1298 he was back in Scotland and was at the battle of Falkirk. In 1301 he obtained a license to build a castle at his manor house in Bretby, Derbyshire and was next made Governor of Berwick-upon-Tweed and warden of Scotland. We then find him at the siege of Caerlaverock with King Edward. After Edward's death he was again made warden of Scotland and went with King Edward II back into Scotland and was part of the defeat of the English army at the Battle of Bannockburn where he was taken prisoner. After a year in prison he was exchanged for Thomas de Moram who had been kept in the Tower. John was sent by the king to Gascony as punishment for the escape of Roger Mortimer from the Tower. John died while in Gascony.(1)

John was taken prisoner during the Scottish wars in 1281 and the king granted him £100 towards his ransom. Upon his father's death he became the owner of Caludon Castle which he held until his death in 1325. He was summoned to Parliament from 26 Aug. 1296 until 6 May 1325. He continued to fight in the Scottish Wars and in 1296 was made Constable of the English army in Scotland. In 1297 he was retained to serve Roger Bigod, Earl of Norfolk, with five knights in time of peace or war in England, Wales and Scotland for the term of his life. In return he had a grant of the manor of Lodene, Norfolk. In 1298 he was back in Scotland and was at the battle of Falkirk. In 1301 he obtained a license to build a castle at his manor house in Bretby, Derbyshire and was next made Governor of Berwick-upon-Tweed and warden of Scotland. We then find him at the siege of Caerlaverock with King Edward. After Edward's death he was again made warden of Scotland and went with King Edward II back into Scotland and was part of the defeat of the English army at the Battle of Bannockburn where he was taken prisoner. After a year in prison he was exchanged for Thomas de Moram who had been kept in the Tower. John was sent by the king to Gascony as punishment for the escape of Roger Mortimer from the Tower. John died while in Gascony.(1)
