  • Story: Notes On Eleanor (Alianore) De Louvaine

    He [William de Ferrers] married, 2ndly, Alianore, daughter of Sir Matthew DE LOVAINE, of Little Easton, Essex. He died shortly before 20 December 1287. His widow was given the manors of Stebbing and Woodham to hold in tenancy till her dower was assigned, 20 January 1287/8, and she had livery of these manors, which the King had assigned to her as dower, 18 April following. Sir William de DOUGLAS abducted her from the manor of Ellen la Zusche at Tranent, co. Haddington, before 28 January 1288/9, at which date the Sheriff of Northumberland was, in consequence, ordered to take his lands into the King's hand, and to arrest and imprison him: an order repeated, 14 April 1289. He was imprisoned in Leeds Castle, Kent, but was released on 15 May 1290, and his said lands-the manor of Fawdon---were restored to him, provisionally, 24 May following. The marriage of Alianore was granted to him, for a fine of £100, 18 February 1290/1. He was arrested for failing to give hostages in connection with a pardon granted him in July 1297, and, on 12 October following, was sent to the Tower, where he died before 24 January 1298/9. After his death, the lands which Alianore had held in dower from her 1st husband (which had been taken into the King's hand by reason of the rebellion of William de Duglas, were restored to her, those in England 24 January 1298/9, and those in Scotland 22 July 1302. She married, 3rdly, before 6 October 1305, Sir Williarn BAGOT, of Hide and Patshull, co. Stafford, and was living, his widow, 3 May 1326. She was buried in Dunmow Priory.
