Hugh Mortimer of Mortimer's Hall, co. Hants, by Eleanor, daughter of John Cornwall. [Ancestral Roots]

Note: As near as can be determined Mortimer's Hall is in Stratfield Mortimer, which is in Berkshire very near the border with Hampshire. Part of the parish of Stratfield Mortimer does extend into Hampshire, so this is perhaps what AR (as well as CP & BP) means. So far no other Mortimer's Hall has been found; www.streetmap.co.uk is the mapping system which shows Mortimer Hall in Stratfield Mortimer, as pointed out by Chris Phillips on SGM. The villages of Mortimer West End (Hampshire) and Mortimer (Berkshire) are also nearby (within 3 kilometers).

The following is from an e-mail from Brice Claggit, referring to research done by Neil Thompson, a noted genealogist who CP XIV: 487-8, credits for the article published in that volume on the Mortimers of Tedstone Wafer:

Here is the descent as Neil Thompson worked it out several years ago:

1. Sir Roger de Mortimer "le oncle," 1st Lord Mortimer of Chirk, 1256?-1326; m. Lucy La Wafre, heiress of Tedstone Wafer, Herefordshire. Since Lord Mortimer was never attained, his descendants below were de jure Lords Mortimer of Chirk.

2. Roger de Mortimer, d. by 1333; of Tedstone Wafer; m. Juliane ____.

3. John de Mortimer, fl. 1333-36; of Tedstone Wafer.

4. John de Mortimer, fl. 1346-67; of Tedstone Wafer.

5. Roger de Mortimer, d. 1402; of Tedstone Wafer; m. Maud, dau. and heiress of Sir John Herle, of Kyre Wward (Cure) and Martley, Worcestershire.

6. Sir John Mortimer, 1388-1415; of Tedstone Wafer, Kyre Ward and Martley.

A, Sir Hugh Mortimer, of Kyre Ward and of Mortimer Hall, Hampshire; m. Eleanor Cornewall (d. 1520, aged almost 90), who m. (2) Sir Richard Croft (c. 1431-1509).

a. Sir John Mortimer, d. by 1504 (or: d. 1513); m. Margaret Neville, who m. (2) Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk. No issue.

b. Elizabeth Mortimer, fl. 1489-by 1525; de jure heiress of the barony of Mortimer of Chirk; m. Thomas West, 8th Lord La Warre. Issue.

B. Roger Mortimer, of Burton, Little Sapey, Worcestershire.

a. Alyson Mortimer, heiress of Burton Sapey; m. Robert Browne. Issue.

Neil thought it possible, but unlikely, that nos. 3 and 4 above were the same man.

Note: I have think that it was John #3 who brought suit in 1342, so was living then, while his son John presented to Tedstone in Apr 1347, and was therefore of age at that date.

Hugh married Eleanor CORNWALL on 20 Jul 1439 in 1st Husband. Eleanor (daughter of Edmund CORNWALL, Master Of Burford and Elizabeth De LA BARRE) was born about 1431 in Burford, Shropshire, England; died in 1520 in Croft Castle, Leominster, Herefordshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
