Dear Newsgroup ~
As a followup to my earlier post, I should note that the National
Archives catalogue has an entry for an inquisition post mortem for
Maud widow of Thomas de Swynnerton as follows:
Item details C 135/164/20
Context
C Records created, acquired, and inherited by Chancery, and also of
the Wardrobe, Royal Household, Exchequer and various commissions
Division within C Records of the Chancery as central secretariat
C 135 Chancery: Inquisitions Post Mortem, Series I, Edward III
Record Summary
Scope and content
Maud late the wife of Thomas de Swynnerton: Northampton****re
Covering dates 35 Edw III [1361-1362]
Availability Open Do***ent, Open Description, Normal Closure before
FOI Act: 30 years
Held by
The National Archives, Kew
Inasmuch as Maud de Holand, wife of Sir Thomas de Swinnerton, held a
manor at Crick in Northampton****re for the term of her life which was
granted to her by her first husband, John de Mowbray, I imagine this
inquisition may well be for her. If so, a transcript of this
inquisition should be in print.
Best always, Douglas Richardson, Salt Lake City, Utah
