  === Life Sketch ===
  Sir Peter de Montfort was born circa 1240 at of Beaudesert, Haselholt in Preston Bagot, Forwood in Wootton Wawen, Whitley in Wootton Wawen, & Wick in Wellesbourne Hastings, Warwickshire, England.
  
  Father: Sir Peter de Montfort, Sheriff of Shropshire & Staffordshire, Constable of the Castles of Shrewsbury & Bridgnorth b. a 1210, d. 4 Aug 1265
  Mother: Alice de Audley b. a 1210, d. a 23 Feb 1277
  
  About 1260, he married Maud de la Mare, daughter of Sir Henry de la Mare, Justice of the Peace, Constable of Stogursey Castle and Joan de Neville. Peter and Maud had three children:
  
  1. Sir John, 1st Lord Montfort.
  
  2. Elizabeth, wife of Sir William de Montacute, 2nd Lord Montacute, & of Sir Thomas de Furnival, 1st Lord Furnival
  
  3. Alice, wife of Warin de Lisle, & of Sir Robert FitzWalter, 1st Lord FitzWalter
  
  Peter de Montfort participated in his father's treasons, and was taken prisoner at the battle of Evesham, but being allowed the benefit of the dictum of Kenilworth, he was restored to his paternal inheritance and afterward enjoyed the favor of King Edward I, in whose Welsh wars he took a very active part.
  
  Sir Peter de Montfort was of Loudham & Gunthorpe when he died circa 4 March 1287 in Nottinghamshire, England, leaving a daughter Elizabeth (who married first, William, son and heir of Simon Monticute, and secondly, Sir Thomas Furnivall), and a son and heir, John de Montfort.
  
  PIERS DE MONTFORT, son and heir. In 1260 he was staying beyond the seas. In April 1264, he was captured at Northampton and imprisoned for a short time in Windsor Castle with his father and brother Robert. In June he had custody of Rockingham Castle for a few days; and it was probably he, and not his father, who was forbidden to take part in a tournament at Dunstable in February 1264/5. He fought at Evesham for Simon de Montfort, 4 August, and was wounded and taken prisoner. Having "appeased the King's indignation and rancour of mind," he was on 28 June 1267 pardoned for all trespasses at the time of the disturbance in the kingdom, and he recovered part of his father's lands. In 1268 he gave the advowson of Ponteland, Northumberland, which his father had bought, to his friend Walter de Merton for his newly founded college at Oxford; and in this year a grant of £50 per annum was renewed to him. In February 1271/2 he had protection for going on a pilgrimage to Santiago, and he went again in January 1274/5. In Nov. 1276 he was one of the magnates at a Council at Westminster concerned with Llewelyn and Welsh affairs, and in February following was going to Wales in the King's service. He was going beyond the seas in January 1277/8, and again in 1281. He gave the manor of Greetham to the Bishop of Durham for a hospital for the sick and poor. In 1280 he granted to Queen Eleanor the marriage of his eldest son John. A market and fair at Uppingham were granted to him in June 1281. In April 1282 he was summoned to serve in person against the Welsh.
  
  He married, circa 1260, Maud, daughter and heir of Matthew, son of Henry DE LA MARE, with whom he had Ashtead in Surrey. He died before 4 March 1286/7. [Complete Peerage IX:127, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
