  Robert de Holland, son of Mathew de Holland, was alive in 1241. In that year he and his son Thurstan were in prison on the charge of having set fire to a house belonging to the Rector of Wigan and occupied by John Mansel. The Sheriff, however, was directed to release them on bail. Thurstan did not appear on the day appointed for trial, 'but Robert came and defended his whole action and put himself for good or evil upon the country, to wit, upon twelve knights above suspicion and four vills of the neighborhood of Wigan.' A day was given him by the Justices at the next Assizes, and the Sheriff was directed in the meantime to 'let him have peace, and in no wise to trouble him or permit him to be troubled."
  
  Thurstan appeared before the Justices on July 23, but no prosecutor attended te Court. The Justices asked Thurstan 'how he would acquit himself concerning the fire if any one would speak against him,' and he too claimed trial by jury, and was given a day at the Assizes. It does not appear that further happened in this case.

  Robert de HOLLAND was born about 1198 in Upholland, Lancashire, England. He died about 1258 in Upholland, Lancashire, England.
