  “ROBERT MAUDUIT, of Hanslope, Buckinghamshire, Barrowden, Morcott, and South Luffenham, Rutland, hereditary Chamberlain of the Exchequer, son and heir. He married ISABEL BASSET, daughter and co-heiress of Thurstan Basset, of Thurleigh, Bedfordshire, Letcombe Bassett, Berkshire, Hawridge and Marsworth, Buckinghamshire, etc. They had two sons, William, Knt., and possibly Thomas. In 1195-1200 the abbot and convent of Westminster granted him certain houses in Longditch, Westminster. In 1195-8 William Postard, abbot of Westminster, licensed him to have a chapel in his house near Longditch, Westminster. In 1208 he reached agreement with Hugh Fitz Hugh and others regarding three bovates of land in Luffenham, Rutland. He and his son, William, both took arms against King John and forfeited their lands. In 1217 both returned to fealty to Henry III, and their lands were restored. His wife, Isabel, acquired two messuages from John Testard, and 7s. 8d. in quitrents from John son of Edward the reeve, in order to grant them to maintain the lights on the altar of St Mary in Westminster Abbey. In 1220 he sued Waleran, on of Waleran Earl of Warwick, for a debt of 200 marks; Waleran pledged the manor of Weston, Gloucestershire to him. ROBERT MAUDUIT died shortly before 22 June 1222. His widow, Isabel, presented to the church of South Luffenham, Rutland sometime before 1225. On 24 October 1225 Thomas de Venuz made fine with the king by 10 marks for having Isabel, widow of Robert Mauduit, as his wife if she consents to it. She died shortly before 11 Dec. 1225.

  Biography

  Research Notes
  That there was a Mauduit connection to Clapham, Bedfordshire is confirmed by VCH Bedfordshire which says of the manor of Clapham Greenacres or FitzJeffrey's Manor "The first tenant of the property of whom mention has been found is William Mauduit Earl of Warwick, who before the year 1268 alienated it to William le Brun."
