  ROGER DE MOWBRAY, brother and heir, was a minor 2 October 1230, and the custody of his lands, as heir of Nele de Mowbray, and his marriage were granted to Hubert (de Burgh), Earl of Kent, for 500 marks; but the wardship and marriage were transferred to John (de Lacy), Earl of Lincoln,, in 1234. The King having taken his homage, Roger had livery of his lands 20 May 1241. On 24 February 1251/2 he had a charter for a market and fair at Hovingham, Yorks. In 1255 he confirmed a grant in Axholme made by his father to Sulby Abbey, and at various times confirmed grants to Bridlington and to Fountains. He was summoned for service in Scotland in January 1257/8, and in 1260 was ordered to be at Chester to serve against the Welsh, being appointed in December with James de Audley to dictate, on the King's behalf, the terms of the truce with Llewelyn. He appears to have sided with Henry III, at any rate in the earlier days of the opposition of the Barons. He married Maud, sister and eventually coheir of Simon DE BFAUCHAMP, and eldest daughter of William DE BEAUCHAMP, baron of Bedford. He died about November 1266, and is said to have been buried in the church of the Friars Preachers at Pontefract. His widow, to whom the castle of Bedford was restored as eldest coheir of Simon de Beauchamp, married Roger LE STRANGE [LORD STRANGE of Ellesmere], who died in 1311. She died before April 1273.
