=== Life Sketch ===
“Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
“ROGER DE MOWBRAY, Knt., of Thirsk, Yorkshire, younger son, born about 1220 (came of age in 1241). He was heir in 1230 to his older brother, Nele (or Nigel) de Mowbray. He married (1st) after 13 April 1238 (date of grant of marriage) DE FURNIVAL, daughter of Thomas de Furnival, of Worksop, Nottinghamshire, and Sheffield, Yorkshire, by Bertha,* daughter of William de Ferrers, Earl of Chester [see FURNIVAL 8 for her ancestry]. They had two daughters, Joan and Elizabeth (or Isabel). He had the grant of a market and fair at Hovingham, Yorkshire in 1252. He married (2nd) before 1257 MAUD DE BEAUCHAMP, daughter of William de Beauchamp, Knt., of Bedford, Bedfordshire, by Ida, daughter of William Longespée, Knt., Earl of Salisbury (illegitimate son of King Henry II of England) [see BOTETOURT 6 for her ancestry]. They had six sons, Roger, Knt. [1st Lord Mowbray], John, Edmund, William, Andrew, and Robert. He was summoned for service in Scotland in 1258, and for service against the Welsh in 1260. He appears to have sided with King Henry III in the earlier days of the opposition of the Barons. SIR ROGER DE MOWBRAY died shortly before 18 October 1263, and was buried in the church of the Friars Preachers, Pontefract, Yorkshire. His widow, Maud, was co-heiress c.1266-7 to her niece, Joan, daughter of Simon de Beauchamp, Knt., by which she inherited a one-third share of the barony of Bedford, Bedfordshire. She had restitution of Bedford Castle in 1267. She married (2nd) (as his 1st wife) before 15 July 1270 (date of bond) ROGER LE STRANGE, of Ellesmere, Shropshire, Steward of the King's Household, Sheriff of Yorkshire, 1270, 1272, Justice of the Forest south of Trent, 1283-97, Bailiff of the Honour of Peak, Derbyshire, Constable of Chartley, Oswestry, and Welshpool Castles, younger son of John le Strange, Knt., of Knockin, Shropshire, by Lucy, said to be daughter of Robert de Tregoz [see TREGOZ 3]. They had issue. His wife, Maud, died shortly before 4 April 1273, and was buried with her 1st husband. In 1274-5 Gocelin de Bratheweyt arraigned an assize of novel disseisin against Roger le Strange and Roger de Mowbray touching a tenement in Kirkby-Malzeard, Yorkshire. He married (2nd) before 18 June 1307 MAUD ___. In 1288 he was commander of an expedition against Rhys ap Maredudd. He was King's messenger at the Court of Rome in 1291-2. He was summoned to Parliament from 24 June 1295 to 26 August 1296, by writs directed Rogero Extraneo, whereby he is held to have become Lord Strange. He signed the Barons' letter to Pope Boniface VIII in 1301 as "Dominus de Ellesmere." Roger le Strange, Lord Strange, died 31 July 1311. His widow, Maud, was living 9 Feb. 1337.
