- Hugh de Kilpecke aka de Kylpek,[1] de Kilpek[2]
Hugh was the father of:
Isabella, who was married to William Walraund; William was seised in the time of Henry III, king of England 1216-1272;[2] Isabella and William had children:
Robert Walrand, who died without having children:[2]
John Walrand, an idiot;[2]
Joan, who was married to Philip Marmion;[2] Joan and Philip had children:
Joan Marmion, who was married to — de Morteyn; Joan was living in April 1294;[2]
Matilda Marmion, who was married to Ralph le Botiller; Matilda and Ralph were living in April 1294;[2]
Mazera Marmion,[2] who was the mother of:
Joan;[2]
On 12 March, 1223, at Worcester, Hugh of Kilpeck made fine with the king by £20, to be rendered in 15 days from Easter forthcoming in the seventh year of Henry III's reign, for having the king’s windfallen wood from Hugh’s bailiwick in the county of Herefordshire, and the sellers of the windfallen wood in Herefordshire were ordered not to intermeddle with the windfallen wood of the aforesaid bailiwick.[3]
An Extent was made in 28 Henry III (28 October 1243-27 October 1244) of Hugh de Kylpek's land in co Gloucester, and the panel, which included Richard Marmihun and Ralph Walens', said that Hugh held property in Parva ....., and he had daughters, the younger of whom was aged 17 years, and he held that land by serjeanty of ..... of Kilpek.[1]
At the Easter term in 22 Edward I [April 1294], in a Staffordshire de Banco case, Joan de Morteyn sued Ralph le Botiller and his wife, Matilda, for the next presentation to the church of Northburi (Norbury); Joan, the plaintiff, and Matilda, the defendant, were sisters: granddaughters of Hugh de Kilpek, daughters of Hugh's daughter, Joan, wife of Philip Marmion.[2]
Research Notes
The following was provided by Carol (O'Brien) McDonald: The Kilpeck family, a distaff line of the Whitney family of Herefordshire, was one of those families that has gone largely unnoticed by the historians. Joan Kilpeck [c1227-<1282] was the younger daughter and coheir of Hugh Kilpeck [>1192-1244], married Philip Marmion [died 1291] as his first wife. Could find no information on Hugh’s origins other than he held lands in chief by serjeanty being the forester of Kilpeck in co. Hereford. Hugh was a minor in 1212 when William Cantilupe was the custodian of his lands, but had attained his majority by 1219. [Book of Fees, page 101, Calendar Patent Rolls HIII] However, whilst searching for a record for the parentage of Walter I Cantilupe in the Pipe Rolls, came across the name of Kilpeck immediately under the name of Cantilupe. We have now have four earlier generations prior to Hugh Kilpeck, the father of Joan, from the introduction written by Round, in which is written: In Herefordshire Henry de 'Kilpeed' (i.e. Kilpeck), who was fined 100 marcs 'pro foresta,' was himself the keeper of the forest, being identical with the Henry 'filius Hugonis forestarii ' of the previous page (p. 53), whose father, as Hugh ' filius Willelmi forestarii,' had made his return in 1166. The roll of the previous year (p. 42) records his succession to his father. [Pipe Roll 23HII, page xxvi ] As Hugh was a minor in 1212, the time frame is consistent with Henry being the grandfather of Hugh. The father of Hugh is likely to have been John Kilpec , as an entry that I had previously missed reads, Willelmus de Cantilupo tenet de garela hered' Johannis de Kylpec feudum j. militis et dimidii. [Book of Fees, pages 100, 101] John Kilpeck was living 1200 but deceased 1204 when his widow Juliana was assigned her dower. [Rotuli de Oblatis et Finibus, pages 78, 233 ]
