Also at the start of the thirteenth century Joanna wife of John de Criol claimed one

knight's fee in Worthington , from her brother, Peter de Goldinton, as her

marriage portion, given to her on her marriage to her first husband, William Pantulf. 83

Peter claimed that the land was the marriage portion of their mother and eidem

descendit tanquam recto heredi and also quodpatri suo non licuit dare terram i11am.

This was obviously not a strong defence as, in 1204, Joanna and Peter made an

agreement over the land whereby Joanna was given an exchangeof lands, but Peter's

initial defence may be a reflection of an earlier custom which had fallen out of use bythis time.
