from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Marshal , Lord of Hingham (* around 1257, † 1282 ) was an English nobleman.

John Marshal came from a branch of the Marshal family . He was the eldest son of William Marshal , Lord of Norton and his wife Elizabeth Ferrers, daughter of William de Ferrers, 5th Earl of Derby . He was still a minor when his father fell as a rebel against the king in the Second Barons' War in 1265 . Through the intervention of William de Say († 1271) he was pardoned by the king for his father's rebellion, so that he was allowed to inherit his possessions. After the death of his grandmother Aline de Ryes , who died in 1267 at the age of 90, he became the heir to their estates in East Anglia and the feudal barony of Hingham . His mother was second married to Dafydd ap Gruffydd , the younger brother of the Welsh prince Llywelyn ap Gruffydd . She exchanged with her son the estate of Folesham in Norfolk , which she had received as Wittum , for the estate of Norton in Northamptonshire . 1278 John came of age, which he could inherit. In 1282 he took part in Edward I's campaign to conquer Wales , but died that same year.

William had married Hawise, of whose father only the first name John is known. His heir became his underage son, William . John de Bohun, a younger son of Humphrey de Bohun, 2nd Earl of Hereford , paid the king 2,500 marks for his guardianship and for the administration of the inheritance .
