"Known as Sir John Giffard Le Boef. He was enfeoffed of two parts of a knight's fee in Twyford, by Robert FitzNicholas, steward of Henry III, prior to 1272. On 12 Mar 1276 he was mentioned as of Twyford in the Close Rolls, and in 1277, as John Giffard le Boef, he petitioned that the service Ralph Pipard should be performed in West Wales [Parliamentary Writs, vol 1, p 632]. In 1282 the said John Giffard was performing in Wales the service due from John Giffard of Brimsfield (ib.). In 1284 he was summoned by a writ of quo warranto to show his right of frank pledge in Twyford, when he pleaded the feoffment by Robert FitzNicholas and called upon Robert's nephew, Ralph Pipard, to warrant, but was adjudged to be in mercy. Pipard sought in 1289-90 that he be restored [Parliamentary Rolls, vol 1]. In the Feudal Aid of 1284-1286 John Giffard le Boef held 15 1/2 virgates of land in Charndon, co. Bucks, of the king, and 40 librates in Twyford of Ralph Pipard [Feudal Aids, vol 1, p 181]. On 3 May 1296 he was knight of the shire for co. Bucks, in a Parliament at Westminster--one of the earliest Parliaments [Parliamentary Writs, vol 1, p 632].
"In the roll of arms, in the time of Edward I, known as the Planché Roll, the arms of John Giffard le Boef of Twyford are given as Gules, three lions passant in pale argent, and a label for difference. These are the arms of the Brimsfield Giffards with the mark of cadency. In the roll of arms printed with the parliamentary writs the arms of Sir John Giffard le Boef of twyford are set down as "Sire Johann Gyffard le Boef De goules a III lions passant de argent e un label de azur."
That Sir John Gifford Ie Boef of Twyford, co. Bucks, Knight was probably a son of Osbert and Isabel (de Bokland) Gifford of the Brimsfield family is shown by a pardon for Geoffrey de Arcubus for the death of Hugh Ruffus, at the instance of John Gifford, son of Osbert Giffard, 10 Jan. 1266 (Calendar of Patent Rolls, Henry Ill, 1258-1266, p. 522). The John Gifford of this record can be no other than the son of the Osbert who died about 1237, as the latter's son Osbert, born in 1233 or 1234, could not have had a son John who was born early enough to be the John mentioned in the pardon, and Osbert, son of Richard Giffard the Justiciary), left no issue, an his sisters were his heirs. Moreover, John Gifford Ie Boef came from Devonshire, and he (and his son after him) held Accott in Devonshire and Astwell in Northamptonshire adversely to John Gifford, son of the second Osbert. Astwell at one time was held by the second Osbert.
(The contributor of this article, who has spent the winter in England, writes that he has discovered a fine of John Giffard le Boef of Twyford, in the time of Edward I. in which the said John is called "son of Osbert Gifford," so that the pedigree is now conclusively proved back to the Conquest. Therefore on p. 59 of the present volume of the REGISTER, line 9, the word probable should be deleted.---EDITOR.]
