• Background Information. 902
Hugh de Chaucombe (fl. 1200), justiciar, was probably born at Chalcombe in Northamptonshire; at least, it is certain that it was from that place that he received his surname. He is first mentioned in 1168, in the Great Roll of Henry II, as having paid 30l. for relief of six knights' fees in the diocese of Lincoln, in which Chalcombe was then included. He next appears in the same record as having in 1184 been fined one mark to be released from an oath which he had taken to the abbot of St. Albans. During the last three years of Richard I (1196-8) he was sheriff of Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and Leicestershire. On the accession of John he was employed about the king's person, and accompanied him into Normandy. In September 1200 he witnessed a charter granted by John at Argentan, and sat as one of the judges in the king's court at Caen. In the same year the barons of the exchequer received instructions that a debt which Chaucombe owed to the king should be respited so long as he continued abroad in the royal service. The next mention of Chaucombe belongs to 1203, when he appears as having been charged with the duty of making inquisition at the ports with regard to the persons who imported corn* from Normandy. During the next two years, he frequently accompanied the king in his journeys through England, and he witnesses several charters granted at different places. In 1204 he acted as justice itinerant, fines being acknowledged before him in Hampshire and Nottinghamshire, and in July of that year he sat in the king's court at Wells. In the following October he was again appointed sheriff of Warwickshire and Leicestershire, jointly with one of the king's clerks named Hilary, and was entrusted with the care of the royal castle of Kenilworth. He was also appointed to manage the revenues of Kenilworth Priory during its vacancy. In January 1206-7 he failed to appear to a suit brought against him by R. de Aungervile relating to the wrongful possession of some cattle, and orders were issued for his arrest. In the following July he was dismissed from his office of sheriff, being succeeded by Robert de Roppesley, to whom he was commanded to deliver up the castle of Kenilworth; and subsequently he had to pay a fine of eight hundred marks to the king. In 1209 he became a monk, and entered the priory at Chalcombe. By his wife Hodierna he had one son, named Robert, and two daughters, who were married to Hamund Passelewe and Ralph de Grafton*.

Note: Hugh of Chalcombe (sometimes Hugh de Chalcombe or Hugh of Chaucombe; died after 1209) was an English nobleman and royal justice. Hugh first appears in the written record in 1168, when he paid a relief of 30 pounds for six knight's fees. From his name, he may have been born in Chacombe in Northamptonshire, and was certainly raised there. Hugh served as a royal justice from 1192 to 1194 and further served as an itinerant justice in 1194. He served as Sheriff of Staffordshire from 1194 to 1198. Hugh was married to Hodierna de Lucerne, and they had one son, Robert, and two daughters. Hugh founded Chacombe Priory, an Augustinian priory founded during the reign of King Henry II of England. In 1209 Hugh became a canon at Chacombe.
