    Author: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Publication: Name: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Baron_Marmion;
    Note: There have been four different baronies held by the Marmion family, two feudal baronies, one purported barony created by Simon de Montfort and one barony by writ. Feudal barony of Tamworth The first feudal barony was obtained by Roger Marmion (d. circa 1129) who held lands in Lindsay in 1115-18, lord of the manor of Fontenay and castellan of Falaise Castle, Normandy, when between 1110 and 1114 he was granted the feudal barony of Tamworth, the caput of which was Tamworth Castle, after the exile of Roger d'Abetot, nephew and heir of the King's steward, Robert Despenser. The eldest son of the 3rd Marmion feudal baron of Tamworth acquired the manor of Winteringham in North Lincolnshire. Welsh feudal barony of Llanstephan A second barony was obtained by Roger Marmion, lord of the manor of Fontenay-le-Marmion during the Norman invasion of Wales when he was rewarded with the Barony of Llanstephan, whose caput at Llansteffan Castle played a central role in the Welsh wars. Barony of Torrington, purported barony by writ (1264) The third barony was a barony by writ of summons for William Marmion (as "Baron of Torrington") to Simon de Montfort's Parliament in 1264, but the summons was not continued after the rebels' defeat at the Battle of Evesham in 1265. Under modern law, this summons did not create a peerage. Barony of Winteringham, barony by writ Created for John Marmion (d.1322). Ancestry According to Cokayne "the earliest known occurrence of the Marmion name seems to be that of a William Marmion who exchanged 12 acres of land with Ralf Taisson, son of Ralf the Angevin, which were granted by the latter to the abbey of Fontenay before Oct 1049 and who acted as a witness to a confirmation charter by William Duke of Normandy in 1060. Due to similarities between the coats of arms of the Taisson and Marmion families there is some speculation that they were related. King's Champion Legend has it that the Marmions were Champions of Normandy before moving to England during the Anarchy. Robert Marmion's defence of King Stephen's castle at Falaise (birthplace of William the Conqueror and former seat of the Dukes of Normandy) in 1140 against Geoffrey of Anjou, is possibly an indication that the title originally had more than symbolic meaning. In addition, as Normandy was still the homeland of the Kings of England at this time, it makes sense that, if one existed, the King's Champion would be known as "Champion of Normandy and England." Philip Marmion (d.1291) used the "3 Swords" badge, later used by the Dymokes to denote being hereditary Champions of England, as a seal as early as 1265, and in 1328 Tamworth Castle was held by the service of "appearing armed in the Royal Arms and mounted on the King's best charger to make proof for the king against any who opposed his coronation."] The duty passed to the Dymokes through Philip's granddaughter Margaret Ludlow, due to his having no legitimate male heirs. Baron Marmion of Tamworth (c.1110-14) By Tenure (feudal barony) Robert Marmion (died 1144) Robert Marmion, 2nd Baron Marmion of Tamworth (d.bef Oct 1181), son and heir. Lord of Fontenay.

Rebel in the First Barons' War. Married Juliana daughter of Philip de Vassy, Baron of Vassy, Lord Forest Auvray Philip Marmion, 5th Baron Marmion of Tamworth (d.1291), son and heir. Sheriff of Warwickshire & Leicestershire. Royalist in the Second Barons' War. Died without legitimate male heirs so his office of Kings Champion of England and Manor of Scrivelsby passed to Dymoke descendants of his daughter Margery. Baron Marmion of Llanstephan (c.1114) By tenure (feudal barony) Roger Marmion, Lord of Fontenay (d.abt.1129). Awarded Llanstephan c.1114. Robert Marmion, 1st Baron Marmion of Tamworth (d. 1143), eldest son of Roger Marmion, Lord of Fontenay. Robert Marmion, 2nd Baron Marmion of Tamworth (d. 1185) Geoffrey Marmion, youngest son of Roger Marmion, Lord of Fontenay. Granted Llanstephan by his nephew, Robert Marmion, 2nd Baron Marmion of Tamworth, in 1166. Benefactor of the Knights Templar. Albreda, sole daughter and heir of Geoffrey Marmion, married William, son of the crusader Richard de Camville, and so the barony passed into the de Camville family. Baron Marmion of Winteringham By tenure Robert Marmion, 1st Baron Marmion of Winteringham (d.bef 1242) (aka Robert Marmion the Younger), son of Robert Marmion, 3rd Baron Marmion of Tamworth and his 2nd wife.

Married Maud, daughter of Thomas, 1st Lord Furnival Robert Marmion, 5th Baron Marmion of Winteringham (d.abt.1360), son and heir, died without issue whereupon the Barony fell into abeyance between his sisters, Joan, Lady Bernack and Avice, Lady Grey. Avice's moiety, or half share, of the Barony passed to her Fitz-Hugh descendants. Baron Marmion of Torrington (1264) Purported barony by writ William Marmion.

    Author: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Note: Sir John Marmion, Baron Marmion of Winteringham was an Anglo-Norman baron who represented Lincolnshire in Parliament and fought in the Wars of Scottish Independence. Ancestry He was the son and heir of Sir John Marmion, 3rd Baron Marmion of Winteringham & Isabella and was born c.1292. Career and life John was an adherent of the king's cousin and rival Thomas, 2nd Earl of Lancaster and on 16 October 1313 was pardoned for his role in the death of Piers Gaveston. He again found himself in trouble in 1314 when an arrest warrant was issued for both John and his father who lead a group of dozens of men on a raid upon the Abbot of Fountains Abbey's land at Aldeburgh and Balderby, Yorkshire. Timber, two hundred sheep, fifty oxen and four carts were stolen and the Abbot's servants suffered kidnapping, beatings, cuts and had their beards plucked out. The Abbot and his monks may not have been entirely innocent having themselves been accused of violent assault in 1307 and of stealing deer in 1316. In May 1314 John was summoned to serve in Sir Henry Tyes' company at the Battle of Bannockburn. Following the disastrous defeat Robert the Bruce and his armies swept so and John was again summoned to defend the north against the rampant Scots at Berwick-upon-Tweed on 30 June 1314. He joined John de Mowbray's company in Aymer de Valence's attempt to re-capture Berwick in August 1319 which led to the Battle of Myton and a two-year truce. His father died at or shortly after the Battle of Boroughbridge in 1322 whereupon John Jnr took over his father's lands. This was at a time when the Fens were gradually becoming flooded and at least one of John's meadows at Cherry Willingham sank under water. Robert the Bruce used Boroughbridge as an opportunity to invade eighty miles into the north-west of England plundering and burning towns such as Lancaster and Preston as he went. In the last half of 1322 John was summoned to help repel Bruce and drive him back into Scotland where he operated a scorched earth policy to deprive the English of food. Hunger and dysentery forced King Edward to withdraw his forces back to York. Marmion was stationed there in May 1323 when a thirteen-year truce was agreed between King Edward and Bruce. John was summoned to a Great Council at Westminster in May 1324 as a Knight of Gloucestershire, Yorkshire and Lindsey, Lincolnshire. He accompanied John de Warenne, 7th Earl of Surrey and Queen Isabella in their negotiations with King Charles IV of France in Gascony in March 1325. Rather than returning to England Isabella stayed in France where she embarked upon an affair with Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March and formed a plot to oust her husband, Edward II, from the throne. The plot was successful and Isabella called a Parliament in January 1327, which was attended by John Marmion,[4] and which ratified Isabella's eldest son Edward III as the new king. In April 1327 John was sued by William de Paris (a former MP for Lincs) for the wardship of William, the underage son and heir of the late Leicestershire MP and knight Sir William Marmion (a leading candidate to be the Knight of Norham Castle fame) and his land at Keisby, Lincs. When the Queen and Roger Mortimer gathered a vast army at York in July 1327 John joined them. The campaign saw little fighting and after the Battle of Stanhope Park the English army returned to York and disbanded. On 25 May 1329 John was granted protection for three years to go on pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Deer were stolen from his park at Tanfield in his absence and an arrest warrant to catch the thieves was issued on 11 October 1331. He was appointed to arrest all disturbers of the peace in Sussex on 21 March 1332, shortly before the start of the Second War of Scottish Independence. Sir John died in 1335,[2] the year of Edward III's 'Great Invasion of Scotland' and the Battle of Boroughmuir. Family and descendants John first married Elizabeth before then marrying Maud daughter of Thomas, 1st Lord Furnival and had the following children: Robert Marmion (d.s.p. 1360) Of infirm condition and never summoned to Parliament. Joan Marmion (d.1362, m1. John Bernack m2. John Folville. son of John de Folville (1286-1329) and Mabel de la Mare of Ashby Mears, Northamptonshire. Avice Marmion, 2nd wife of John de Grey, K.G. of Rotherfield. Issue John and Robert adopted the Marmion name and their Fitz-Hugh descendants became the eventual heirs of the lands at Winteringham, Tanfield, etc.
