Thomas de Botetourt d. 13?? d. 13?? (abt. 1292 - abt. 1322)

Thomas de Botetourt was the first son of Sir John de Botetourt who's chantry can be found in the church of St. Mary Belchamp Walter.

Again, the Wikitree profile does contain some collabrating information but also introduces some that does not make sense (at the moment). For example: there is no mention of Framlingham castle on the Framlingham related websites, the village, the castle and any other sites that I can find.

The Wikitree profile:

Father: - Sir John Botetourt, 1st Lord Botetourt, Admiral of the North Fleet, Constable of St. Briavels Castle, Governor of Framlingham Castle b. c 1260, d. 25 Nov 1324

Mother: - Maud FitzThomas b. c 1270, d. c 27 Nov 1328

Sir Thomas Botetourt was born circa 1292 at of Upton, Norfolk, England; Age 30 in 1322.[1]

He married Joane de Somery, daughter of Sir Roger de Somery, Baron Dudley and Agnes, before 1318.[2]

They had 1 son (Sir John, 2nd Lord Botetourt) & 1 daughter (Maud, wife of Sir Reynold, 4th Lord Grey of Wilton).[3][4]

Sir Thomas Botetourt died circa 28 July 1322.[5]

Sir John, 2nd Lord Botetourt

The Botetourt family had substancial wealth and their descendants were also beneficiaries of this in addition to that of marriges to other wealthy families.

The wealth of the Botetourt family was passed down through John (2nd Lord) and the "substantial Botetourt inheritance," was mentioned in the account of Sir Robert Moton of Peckleton and Hugh, Lord Burnell.

Peckleton is in Leicestershire and the name Bartholomew Brokesby is associated with this inheritance.

Residence at Mary Hall, Belchamp Walter

Although I have not seen this confirmed elsewhere, Thomas Wright records that he was the owner of Mary Hall, Belchamp Walter.
