> Clean Reconstruction
Sir John Chidiok I [c. 1306 – 6 May 1388], knight, of Chideock and More Crichel [Dorset] and Kingstone [Somerset], was the husband of Isabel FitzPaen, only daughter and heir of Sir Robert FitzPaen II [d. 1354].
They received livery of the FitzPaen manors by 1355 and established Chideock as their fortified seat [licence granted 1369/70]. John served with King Edward III in France in 1359–60 and held numerous Dorset and Somerset estates by the courtesy of England after Isabel’s death [before 1360]. He died 6 May 1388, having already settled his lands upon his son.
Sir John Chidiok II [c. 1348 – aft. 1390] succeeded at age 40 and received livery 22 June 1388 of Chelborough, Chideock, Cottley, Buckham, More Crichel, Allownshay, and Kingston in Yeovil. He m. before 8 Nov 1375 Joan de Seint Loe, eldest daughter and co-heiress of Sir John de Seint Loe of Newton St. Loe and Maiden Newton.
> Relevance to the Verified FitzPaen Descent
Page 456 traces the inheritance of the FitzPaen estates into the Chidiok family through Isabel FitzPaen, eldest daughter and co-heiress of Sir Robert FitzPaen II. The FitzPaen lands thus passed from the Somerset–Dorset barony into a new West Country line based at Chideock. Although the barony itself fell into abeyance after 1354, the blood and properties continued unbroken through Isabel FitzPaen and her son Sir John Chidiok II, whose later alliances [with the de Seint Loe family] further linked the line to the aristocracy of Somerset and Dorset.

> Clean Reconstruction
Sir John Chidiok II [c. 1348 – 30 Jun 1390] married Joan de Seint Loe, elder daughter and co-heiress of Sir John de Seint Loe [by Alice de Paveley].
Through her the Chidioks acquired a share of the Seint Loe–Paveley inheritances in Wiltshire and Gloucestershire [Westbury, Hilperton, Clifton].
He died in 1390; his widow held her purparty and later married John Bache of Little Crichel, who died 1409.
Their son Sir John Chidiok III [b. c. 1375] succeeded aged about 15 and was confirmed in possession of his lands in 1409.
> Relevance to the Verified FitzPaen Descent
Page 457 demonstrates the FitzPaen bloodline thriving in the Chidiok descendants for two more generations.
By the 1390s the family had blended the old FitzPaen manors of Somerset and Dorset with the Seint Loe–Paveley estates of Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, forming a broad West-Country power base.
This continuity represents the final active line before the Barony of FitzPaen slipped into abeyance around 1400.
