  “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
  “JOHN DE MOHUN, of Dunster and Isle Brewers, Somerset, Whichford, Warwickshire, etc., son and heir, born about 1248 (came of age in 1269). He married ELEANOR FITZ REYNOLD, daughter of Reynold Fitz Peter, Knt., lord of Blaenlyfni (in Cathedine), Breconshire, Bedhampton, North Oakley, Tadley, and Wolverton, Hampshire, etc., by his let wife, Alice [see FITZ HERBERT 5 for her ancestry].
  
  They had one son, John, Knt. [1st Lord Mohun]. In 1273 Joan de Reygni arraigned an assize of novel disseisin against him and others touching a tenement in Carhampton, Somerset. JOHN DE MOHUN died testate 11 June 1279. In 1280 William de Pleybire sued his widow, Eleanor, John de Mohun, Robert de Mohun, and the Prior of Bruton, executors of John de Mohun, on a plea that they restore to him chattels to the value of 20 marks.
  
  In 1281 Aumary de Saint Arnand was granted custody of lands out of the of Whichford, Warwickshire to the value of £50 yearly, and lands out of the manor of Isle Brewers, Somerset to the value of 25 marks yearly, in satisfaction of a grant previously made to him of land to the value of 100 marks yearly out of the lands and tenements late of John de Mohun, lately deceased, to hold during the minority of the heirs of the said John de Mohun, together with a further grant of land to the value of £8 yearly in the said manor of Isle Brewers.
  
  His widow, Eleanor, married (2nd) before 1 Jan. 1281/2 (as his 1st wife) WILLIAM MARTIN, Knt., 1st Lord Martin [see MARTIN 10], son and heir of Nicholas Fitz Martin, by Maud, daughter of Guy de Bryan [see MARTIN 9 for his ancestry]. He was born about 1257-8 (aged 25 in 1282, aged 50 and more in 1308). They had two sons, Edmund and William [2nd Lord Martin], and two daughters, Eleanor and Joan.
  
  He was summoned to serve in Wales in 1282 and 1283, in Gascony in 1295-97, and in Scotland in 1298, 1299, and 1300. He was summoned to Parliament from 24 June 1295 to 24 Sept. 1324, by writs directed Willelmo Martyn, whereby he is held to have become Lord Martin. He fought at the Battle of Falkirk 22 July 1298. He joined in the Barons' Letter to the Pope in February 1301 as D'n's de Camesio [Lord of Kemeys]. In 1305 he was appointed a justice of Trailbaston.
  
  In March 1306 William Montague, of Devon, owed William and his wife, Eleanor, a debt of 26 marks. He married AMICE DE CAMVILLE, widow of Henry de Pomeroy, of Berry Pomeroy, Devon, and daughter of Geoffrey de Camville, Knt., 1st Lord Camville, by an unidentified 1st wife, [see MARTIN 9 for her parentage].
  
  He was one of the chief Barons who complained of the king's predilection for the favorite Peter de Gavaston, and was one of the Lords Ordainers of Reform in 1310. He was employed in all the Scottish expeditions from 1308 to 1322. He was present as a Trier of Petitions in Parliament in 1320. SIR WILLIAM MARTIN, 1st Lord Martin, died before 8 October 1324. His widow, Amice, left a will dated 5 Feb. 1338/9, proved 16 Feb. 1339/40, requesting burial in Berry Pomeroy, Devon "by the sepulchre of her lord" [i.e., 1st husband].

3. Title: Appendix I of "Ancestors and Descendants of John Price: Immigrant to Virginia: 1610-11"
   Note: Although the book is compiled by Vina Chandler Price, Appendix I was included at the request of Mrs. Margaret Scruggs Carruth, and was researched by Miss Kett and by Mr. H. E. Forrest (after the death of Miss Kett, which took before 1930). Both Miss Kett and Mr. Forrest were reputed to be professional genealogists. Mr Forrest is also referred to as the "Antiquarian Editor" of the Shrewsbury Chronicle I looked H. E. Forrest online and found that he is also the editor of the following books: --"Shrewsbury Burgess Roll", published in 1924 by the Shrewsbury and Shropshire Archaeological and Parish Register Society --"The old Churches of Shrewsbury: Their History, Architecture and Associations", published in 1920 by Shrewsbury, Wilding & Son --"Some Old Shropshire Houses and their Owners: Braggington (with a plate), Dinthill, Whitley, & Play-Y-Court", published in 1915 by Shropshire Archaeological & Natural History Society. Margaret Scruggs Carruth is a charter member of "Daughters of the Barons of Runnemede". She served as Registrar when it was first organized, and is listed as member #22. To be eligible for membership, a person must descend from one or more of the Barons of Runnemede. The Barons forced King John to agree to the Magna Carta, a charter constituting a fundamental guarantee of rights and privileges. Mrs. Scruggs claims eligibility for membership through John Price who supposedly descended from eleven of the Barons. Appendix I provides two different lineages. One is from Robert Fitzwalter (who was one of the Barons of Runnemede) to John Price (born 1584-5), and the titular character of this book. The 2nd is from Elystan Glodrydd app Cyhelin ap Ifor (933-1010) (who was Prince of Ferlllys and founder of the Fourth Royal Tribe of Wales) back to the same John Price.
   Page: Eleanor is identified as: the daughter of William de Mohun and wife Beatrice (this parental relationship seems to be in error); the wife of William Martin; the mother of Joane Martin (wife of Nicholas d'Audlithley (died 1319) (7th Gen, pp. 515-516)); and the grandmother of James 4th Lord Audley (8th Gen, pg. 516).
