The Bohun Family
Humphrey de Bohun, 4th Earl of Hereford, fought and died at the Battle Boroughbridge in 1322
Humphrey de Bohun was the 2nd husband of Elizabeth, daughter of Edward I. This marriage is another connection to records made at Hailes Abbey.
Lords Ordainer
Humphrey de Bohun and Aymer de Valence were both Lords Ordainers (1311). Both of these earls, Hereford and Pembrook, were involved with Sir John de Botetourt in the Ordinances of 1311.
William Marshall
William Marshal appears on this page as I had found a reference to him in relation to monumental images described in John Kempe's book.
Making a search for William Marshall (Temple Church) you will find a link to The Temple Church website. (I find the disclaimer on the Temple Curch Website a little draconain). William Marshall was Henry III's ?????
The Earldom of Hereford
The Earldom of Hereford was created six times.
In context to this website it is the sixth creation that is of interest. It should be noted that the earldom is an ancient one and the first creation was that of Sweyne Godwinson, the brother of Harold II of England of 1066 fame. Another key figure of interest to this site is William Fitz Osbern
