=== Life Sketch ===
John Merbury was a trusted Lancastrian retainer who, by means of long service to the Crown (mainly in South Wales) and two advantageous marriages, became one of the richest and most influential Herefordshire gentlemen of his day. Little is known of his parentage, but his arms indicate that he was related to the Marbury family of Marbury (on the Cheshire border with Shropshire) who also owned the castle and manor of Lyonshall, near Kington, Herefordshire, which eventually came into his possession. Two of his brothers made equally impressive careers for themselves, Sir Laurence Merbury as successively treasurer (in 1400) and chancellor (from 1406) of Ireland, and Nicholas Merbury as chief butler and master of the ordnance to Henry V. Marbury was a fief of the Talbots, by whom Sir Laurence was retained, but John himself apparently began his career as an archer serving from 1389 in the force recruited by Sir John Stanley. He then enlisted with John of Gaunt, who at Bordeaux in October 1395 granted him an annuity of ten marks from the issues of the lordship of Halton, Cheshire, thereby retaining him for life.
