Note 1

John and his son William held land from Hawkeswood, Shropshire to Hawkinge, Kent and in between.

Dover Castle assigned them Hawkinge, apparently so they could prepare it for the church.

Their land included properties in Warwickshire and Hereford and Wiltshire and Kent and apparently Huntingdonshire.

A. Children of John. In 1303 John and William went to Shropshire to clear up their interest in Hawkeswood and other land in and near Shropshire.

2. John and William sold their portion of Hawkeswood and other Shropshire land to Hugh le Mon who was also John's son and the father of the Hotchkiss line.

3. Warren who was also John's son, and father of the Hill line, was likely setup with his feoffment of nearby Neenton. The later lifetime lease in 1328 only confirmed this arrangement.

1. Also on that 1303 trip, John, Williams 2nd son, born about 1272, was apparently put in charge of land in Warwickshire and nearby counties.

4. Stephen stayed with Andrew and later received York land himself. He likely received other lands which he passed to his own sons.

C. Children of Andrew from his first wife. Andrew's first wife likely brought York land into the family.

4. Roger came of age after Joan married Andrew. Andrew held Devon land through Joan and shared part of it with Roger.

D. Children of John from his second wife Joan, who most likely brought lans from Devon and Cornwall with her dowry.

The Nash Estate became the family home after Hawkinge Manor was given to the church.

After Andrew died in 1321 Joan held Nash for her life, and was thus called Joan of Nash.

She apparently had the ability to distribute portions of the remaining property to her children as they came of age.

1. When Joan died Nash and the remaining lands, mostly in Kent and nearby counties, passed to her first son John I of Nash.

2. Margery was given a small York estate at age 2 1/2. Stephen was her guardian and added more land to her share when he died.

4. When Joan died the rest of the Devon land went to Sir Richard, alias Hankeford. He likely also received more in knight's service.
