Bartholomew Fitz Toret, who continued the line. His attestation of a Charter, which passed in or about the year 1196, is remarkable. He is called Bartholomew de Morton, and his name is followed by that of Richard Corbet, who was already his son-in-law. (Eyton's Antiquities of Shropshire, vol 10, pp 184-192)
In the year 1214, Morton was assessed 40x to a King's Tallage. It is not certain that Morton-Toret was meant, but, if it was, there can be no doubt that the impost arose in the contemporary confiscation of Bartholomew de Morton's estates. A letter from the Sheriff of Shropshire, written to King John soon after Easter 1215, expressly names Bartholomew Turet as one of the only seven Salopians who had been, and still continued to be, adverse to the king in the existing civil war. On February 25, 1216, King John orders William Earl of Pembroke to give Bartholomew Turet's lands and Castle of Morton to Engeram de Pratellis, to hold during the king's pleasure. A Writ of King Henry III, dated November 4, 1217, certifies that Bartholomew Turet had returned to the fealty and service of the Crown. Copies of this Writ were addressed to the Sheriffs of five Counties, viz., Shropshire, Cornwall, Oxfordshire, Leicestershire, and Yorkshire.
Bartholomew de Moreton appears in his undoubted rank as a Shropshire Knight in 1229. He was deceased in 1235, and was succeeded in Shropshire at least by his grandson, Richard Corbet (III), son and heir of Richard Corbet, by Joan. daughter and coheir of the above Bartholomew. [History and Genealogy of the Pearsall Family II:802]
______________________________
Toret's descendant was Peter Fitz Toret whose name appears constantly before 1160 and 1194 in connection with Shropshire places and Shropshire men, and was succeeded by his son Bartholomew, who appears to have died before 1235. The name of Gerard Fitz Toret, probably a younger brother of Bartholomew's and the latter's under-tenant at Evelith frequently occurs under the name of Gerard de Ivelith.
On Bartholomew's death, his Shropshire estates passed, with his daughter, to Richard Corbet of Wattlesborough, her husband, and in course of time to Robert Corbet their son. [The History of the Evelyn Family p553]
