HUGH DE SAY, son and heir [of Hugh by Lucy de Clifford]. He was keeper of Norton Castle, in what is now co. Radnor, and fought under Richard I in Normandy in 1194. In 1195 he was in charge of the castle of Bleddfa in the March, now co. Radnor. In 1196 he and Roger de Mortimer of Wigmore were defeated near Radnor by the Welsh prince Rhys.
He married Mabel, daughter of Robert MARMION. He was assessed to the third scutage of the army in Normandy in 1196, and seems to have been living in the early part of 1197, but died s.p.m., before Michaelmas that year. His widow Mabel by Easter 1201 was married to Reynold [---]. She was dead before Michaelmas 1210. [Complete Peerage IX:258]

THE FIFTH "BARON BURFORD"

Hugh de Say of Richard's Castle died in the 1190 financial year and his son, Hugh (Fitzhugh) de Say was made responsible for the 11 pound, 10 shilling which Osbern Fitz Hugh had owed for scutage due on his 23 knights' fees in Herefordshire. The second Hugh Say seems to have been a much more warlike character than his father and this in the end may have been his undoing. In 1191 the Welsh seem to have been putting pressure on the lands around the Teme and Lugg valleys. As a consequence, the loyal barons of King Richard I ("The Lion Hearted") seem to have been ordered by the Chancellor to seize two Chandos castles, while the Chancellor himself, between 18 May and 8 July, forced Mortimer of Wigmore to surrender Wigmore Castle as Roger had been 'intriguing with the Welsh'. Towards the end of his life, Hugh decided to try to regain his position in Wales and joined the Marchers in the great royally backed campaign against the Prince of Deheubarth and his adherents in 1195. At Michaelmas that year it was recorded that Hugh de Say had been granted 100 shillings in aid of repairing Bleddfa (Bledwach) Castle, the vill of which had been held by Osbern Fitz Richard at Domesday.

In 1196 Rhys ap Gruffyd of Deheubarth attacked Radnor Castle and destroyed it and the town. No sooner was the castle destroyed than Roger Mortimer of Wigmore (d. 1214) and Hugh de Say of Burford drew up their forces 'in the valley near that town'. A great battle ensued and the Marchers were utterly defeated, with the alleged loss of some forty knights and an innumerable number of foot. However, a study of royal records at this time shows no losses at all amongst the known knightly followers of Mortimer, and the only death that can be suggested with any certainty in the Say lordship appears to be that of Hugh de Say himself! By early 1197 it would seem that Hugh Fitz Hugh de Say of Burford was dead and it seems possible that he either died at the battle or, as his death was not mentioned in the Welsh Chronciles, soon afterwards of his wounds. Around the same time it became obvious that another Helias de Say had succeeded his father Hugh at Stokesay.
