Notes about JOHN WELLES

"John de Welle (afterwards de Welles), son and heir of John and Fifth Lord Welles was born 20 Apr 1352 at Conisholme, Lincolnshire and was baptized that day in the church of St. Peter. He was summoned into parliament 1375 to 1420 as both Johanni de Welle and Johanni de Welles. In may 1390 he and Sir David Lindsay, afterwards 1st Earl of Crawford, performed a notable feat of arms on London Bridge, where Welles was unhorsed at the third course. John married 1) before May 1368 Eleanor, daughter of John de Mowbray, 4th Lord Mowbray; and 2) before 13 Aug 1417 Margery {Neither of these marriages seem confirmed.} The only known child of John seems to be Ives or Eon de Welles, by his first wife."
