Biography
Simon Milbourne, Esq. of Tillington, Burghill, Almeley, Munsley, and Howton , Herefordshire, England and, in right of his wife, of Icombe, Worcestershire, Sherriff of Herefordshire 1479-1480, was the son of John Milbourne Esq. and Elizabeth Devereux, daughter of Walter Devereux, Knight of Weobley, Herefordshire.[1] His birth is estimated to be about 1435, and is likely to have been in Herefordshire where the family had lands.[2]
Simon married about 1460 to Jane Baskerville,[3] daughter and heiress of Ralph Baskerville, Esq.[1] They had thirteen daughters[4] as follows:
Sibyl, m. Richard Hackluyt Esq., m. Sir John Breynton;[1][3]
Elizabeth,[1] m. Sir Thomas Monington, m. John Whittington;[3]
Alice, m. Henry Mill, m. Thomas Baskerville, Esq.;[1][3]
Blanche, m. James Whitney, Esq., m. Sir William Herbert[1][3]
Katherine, m. Thomas Barton;[1][3]
Jane. Both Magna Carta Ancestry and Royal Ancestry, list two daughters called Jane. The one who married Richard Cornwall is listed second, so this Jane probably died young.[1][3]
Anne,[1] m. William Rudhall, Esq.;[3][5]
Agnes, m. Thomas Walwyn, Esq.;[1][3]
Jane, m. Sir Richard Cornwall;[1][3]
Joyce, m. Thomas Hyett;[1][3]
Margaret, m. Richard Bishop;[1][3]
Juliane;[1][3]
Eleanor,[1] m. John Moore, Esq;[3]
and one son:
John.[3]
Simon was Sheriff of Herefordshire in 1464[6] and 1479/80.[1][6]
Simon presented to the church of Mundsley, Herefordshire in 1507 and died testate on 14 Aug 1522[1][7] at Icomb, Worcestershire, England.[1]
Simon lived into his ninetieth year, ceasing to enjoy sound memory prior to his death, and in 1525 a special commission was issued from the Exchequer authorising Rowland Martin and Thomas Bodenham Esqs to enquire what manors and lands were held of the crown in fee and who was entitled to possess them and thus to distribute them.[8]
