BARONY OF WELLES (V)
JOHN (DE WELLE, afterwards WELLES), LORD WELLES, son and heir, was born 20 April 1352 at Conisholme, Lincs, and baptised that day in the church of St. Peter there. He was retained to stay with the Duke of Lancaster for life, 12 February 1371/2, and accompanied the Duke on his historic but fruitless march from Calais to Bordeaux, August-December 1373; was given seisin of his lands, 6 May 1373; and served on many commissions of the peace, of array, &c., in Lincolnshire from 1374. He was summoned to Parliament from 20 January 1375/6 to 26 February 1420/1, by writs diiected Johanni de Welle, or Welles, such summonses being apparently continued no less than 7 years after his death, viz. from 29 September 1422 to 3 August 1429. He was frequently abroad or serving in the French wars, 1377, 1379-83 and 1387-88; was with the garrison of Berwick-on-Tweed, 1378-79; had licence to go to France "pro Declaratione Honoris ac Nominis sui Salvatione," 22 August 1384; and took part in Richard Il's only expedition to Scotland in 1385. In May 1390 he and Sir David Lindsay, afterwards 1st Earl of Crawford [SCT], performed a notable feat of arms on London Bridge, where Welles was unhorsed at the third course. He was present at Lowestoft, October 1398, on the embarkation of his brother-in-law, the Duke of Norfolk, who had been banished by Richard II; was summoned, 18 May 1400, to perform homage and fealty to Henry IV, was appointed, 11 May 1402, to proclaim, in Lincolnshire, the King's intention of enforcing law and order; and ordered, 8 September 1403, to stop granting livery and making unlawful assemblies. He married, (?) 1stly, before May 1386, Eleanor, sister of John (DE MOWBRAY), EARL OF NOTTINGHAM, and of Thomas (DE MOWBRAY), DUKE OF NORFOLK and EARL MARSHAL, 1st daughter of John, 4th LORD MOWBRAY, by Elizabeth, suo jure (according to modern doctrine) BARONESS SEGRAVE, daughter and heir of John (DE SEGRAVE), 4th LORD SEGRAVE. She, who was born shortly before 25 March 1364, may have been living in 1399. He married, (?) 2ndly, before 13 August 1417, Margery. He died 26 August 1421. She died 8 April 1426.

John de Welles, 5th baron, was summoned to parliament from 20 January, 1376, to 26 February, 1421. This nobleman served in the expedition made into Flanders in the retinue of John, Duke of Lancaster, in the 27th Edward III [1354], and in the 1st Richard II [1377] was in the wars of France. The next year he was in the garrison of Berwick, under Henry Percy, Earl of Northumberland, its governor. His lordship subsequently obtained license to travel beyond sea, and returning in the 8th Richard II [1385], had leave to go abroad again for the vindication of his honour, having received some affront from a knight in France. He seems to have come home solely to procure letters testimonial vouching for his credit and reputation. After this we find him in the Scottish wars, and in the 19th of the same reign, he was ambassador to Scotland, where, during his sojourn, being at a banquet where deeds of arms becoming the subject of conversation, his lordship exclaimed, "Let words have no place; if ye know not the chivalry and valiant deeds of Englishmen, appoint me a day and place when ye list, and ye shall have experience." This challenge was immediately accepted by David, Earl of Crawford, and London Bridge appointed as the place of combat. The battle was fought on St. George's Day, and the Scottish earl was declared victor. Indeed, he displayed such an extraordinary degree of prowess, that notwithstanding the spear was broken upon his helmet and visage, he remained so immovably fixed in his saddle that the spectators cried out that in defiance of the laws of arms, he was bound thereto. Whereupon he dismounted and got up again and ran a second course, but in the third, Lord Welles was unhorsed and flung to the ground, on which Crawford dismounting, embraced him that the people might understand that he had no animosity, and the earl subsequently visited his lordship with great courtesy until his recovery. Of this Lord Welles nothing further in known than the period of his decease, anno 1421; although for eight years afterwards summonses appear to have been regularly issued to his lordship. But there are other instances upon record of summonses having been directed to barons after their deaths, probably from ignorance that the decease occurred. Lord Welles m.

ohn (III) de Mowbray, 4th Baron Mowbray (24 June 1340 ? 19 October 1368) was an English peer. He was slain near Constantinople while en route to the Holy Land.
Family
John de Mowbray, born 25 June 1340 at Epworth, Lincolnshire, was the son of John de Mowbray, 3rd Baron Mowbray, of Axholme, Lincolnshire, by his second wife, Joan of Lancaster, third daughter of Henry, 3rd Earl of Lancaster.
Career
Mowbray and twenty-six others were knighted by King Edward III of England in July 1355 while English forces were at the Downs, before sailing to France. In 1356, he served in a campaign in Brittany. He had livery of his lands on 14 November 1361; however, his inheritance was subject to the dower which his father had settled on his stepmother, Elizabeth de Vere. By 1369, his stepmother had married Sir William de Cossington, son and heir of Stephen de Cossington of Cossington in Aylesford, Kent; not long after the marriage, she and her new husband surrendered themselves to the Fleet prison for debt. According to Archer, the cause may have been Mowbray's prosecution of his stepmother for waste of his estates; he had been awarded damages against her of almost ?1000.
In about 1343, an agreement had been made for a double marriage between, Mowbray and Audrey Montagu, the granddaughter of Thomas of Brotherton, and Mowbray's sister, Blanche de Mowbray with Audrey's brother, Edward Montagu. Neither marriage took place. Instead, about 1349, a double marriage took place between Mowbray and Elizabeth de Segrave (also granddaughter of Thomas of Brotherton), and Mowbray's sister Blanche with Elizabeth's brother, John de Segrave, Pope Clement VI having granted dispensations for the marriages at the request of Mowbray's grandfather, the Earl of Lancaster, in order to prevent 'disputes between the parents', who were neighbours. Mowbray had little financial benefit from his marriage during his lifetime as a result of the very large jointure which had been awarded to Elizabeth's mother, Margaret of Brotherton, Duchess of Norfolk, who lived until 1399. However, when Elizabeth's father, John de Segrave, 4th Baron Segrave, died on 1 April 1353, King Edward III allowed Mowbray to receive a small portion of his wife's eventual inheritance. Estate accounts for 1367 indicate that Mowbray enjoyed an annual income of almost ?800 at that time. Elizabeth then succeeded her father as 5th Baroness Segrave, her brother having predeceased their father.
Mowbray was summoned to Parliament from 14 August 1362 to 20 January 1366. On 10 October 1367, he appointed attorneys in preparation for travel beyond the seas; these appointments were confirmed in the following year. Mowbray was slain by the Turks near Constantinople while en route to the Holy Land. A letter from the priory of 'Peyn' written in 1396 suggests that he was initially buried at the convent at Pera, opposite Constantinople; according to the letter, 'at the instance of his son Thomas', his bones had been gathered and were sent to England for burial with his ancestors.
His will was proved at Lincoln on 17 May 1369. His wife Elizabeth predeceased him in 1368, by only a few months.
Marriage and issue
Mowbray married, by papal dispensation dated 25 March 1349, Elizabeth de Segrave (born 25 October 1338 at Croxton Abbey), suo jure 5th Baroness Segrave, daughter and heiress of John de Segrave, 4th Baron Segrave (d.1353), and Margaret of Brotherton, Duchess of Norfolk, daughter and heiress of Thomas of Brotherton, son of King Edward I. Through the marriage, the Mowbray family gained the estate in Framlingham, Suffolk, including Framlingham Castle, which became the main seat of power for the Mowbray family for most of the 15th century.
They had two sons and three daughters:
1. Margaret de Mowbray (c.1361 - 24 April 1404), who married, by licence dated 1 July 1369, Sir Reginald de Lucy (d. 9 November 1437) of Woodcroft in Luton, Bedfordshire.
2. Joan de Mowbray (c.1363 - 30 November 1402), who married firstly Sir Thomas Grey (1359 ? 26 November or 3 December 1400) of Heaton near Norham, Northumberland, son of the chronicler, Sir Thomas Grey. They had four sons and one daughter, including John Grey, 1st Earl of Tankerville. She married secondly, Sir Thomas Tunstall of Thurland in Tunstall, Lancashire (c. 1360 ? 1415).
3. Eleanor de Mowbray (born before 25 March 1364), who married John de Welles, 5th Baron Welles.
4. John de Mowbray, 1st Earl of Nottingham (1 August 1365 ? 12 January 1383), who died unmarried, and was buried at the Whitefriars, London.
5. Thomas de Mowbray, 1st Duke of Norfolk (22 March 1366 - 22 September 1399)
