Property
Manor of Higham Gobion
"The manor was of considerable value at the date of the Survey, for it was assessed at 8 hides, and was worth £8. It had been held in the time of Edward the Confessor by five sokemen, who could assign and sell their land to whom they wished. By 1158 the manor had passed to Richard Gobion, (fn. 4) whose family gave their name to the place, and held the manor until 1300. In 1231 Katherine, widow of Richard Gobion, successfully claimed her third of 3 carucates in Higham as the dower settled on her by him and his father Richard. (fn. 5) Her opponent Hugh Gobion, grandson of Richard, was holding shortly afterwards two knights' fees in Higham, Streatley, Faldo, and Sharpenhoe; (fn. 6) he died in 1275, (fn. 7) and was succeeded by his son Richard, who in 1279 was accused by his mother Maud of failing to carry out an agreement made between them in 1277, whereby Maud had handed over one-third of the manor, which she held as dower, in return for £10 of silver paid annually during her life. (fn. 8) The dispute was amicably settled in the same year, and Maud was granted right of distraining if Richard should fail to pay the rent. (fn. 9) In 1284–6 the holding amounted to one and one-fifth part of a knight's fee. (fn. 10) Richard died in 1300, (fn. 11) leaving two daughters, the elder of whom, Hawise, married Ralph Butler, (fn. 12) to whom she brought the manor as her inheritance, after the death of her mother Margaret, in 1311. (fn. 13)"[1]
Manor of Streatley with Sharpenhoe
"In 1274 Hugh de Gobion died seised of Streatley manor, leaving as heir his son Richard, (fn. 10) who rendered feudal service in Streatley ten years later. (fn. 11) He died in 1300, leaving two daughters, Hadwisa, wife of Ralph Butler, and Elizabeth as co-heirs. (fn. 12) Streatley manor passed to the former, and was held by Ralph Butler in right of his wife until his death in 1342, when he left their grandson Ralph as his heir. (fn. 13) Hadwisa, however, retained the manor until her death, which took place in 1360, when, her grandson Ralph having predeceased her in 1348, Sir Edward Butler, his brother, inherited Streatley with Sharpenhoe manor. (fn. 14) Sir Edward died without an heir in 1412, and Philip, his second cousin, inherited his estates. (fn. 15) Sir Philip Butler died in 1420, when his widow, who after wards married Lawrence Cheyne, owed feudal service for the manor. (fn. 16)"[2]
