STOTTESDEN. 151

….

John de Plessetis, Earl of Warwick, died on February 26, 1263. The heir of himself and his first Wife, Christiana de Sandford, was Hugh de Plessetis, aged twenty-six years at his Father's death. [52] In April following this Hugh had livery of the Manor of "Suttesdon" "as a tenure in capite, by service of one knight's-fee", his Relief thereon being 100s. He had also livery of other lands inherited from his Mother. [53] He married Isabella, one of the three Coheirs of Philippa Bassett, sometime Countess of Warwick, and on Nov. 29, 1265, had livery of his said wife's estate. [54] In 54 Hen. III Hugh de Plessetis gave the Manor of Stottesden, in frank marriage with Christiana his infant daughter, to John, son of Nicholas de Segrave, [55] which John seems at the time to have been about fourteen years of age. The Jurors of Stottesden Hundred reported this transfer at the Assizes of September, 1272, adding, that it was without the King's consent. They also reported John de Segrave to be then seized thereof; but among the Defaulters in their Hundred appears the name of Nicholas de Segrave, [56] as though the Father were accountable for the Suit and Service due from Stottesden while the Son was in minority. At the Inquisition of Stottesden Hundred, taken in November, 1274, the Jurors traced accurately the descent of this Manor from John de Plessetis to Hugh de Plessetis. The alienation thereof by the latter they also dated in 1270, and explained that Nicholas de Segrave was to hold Stottesden for his life.

[171] The latter person was also concerned in a suit about land in Northwood, in 1270. [172]
