Notes about John MALET

Excerpt from "Notices of an English Branch of the Malet Family", by Arthur Malet, published 1885, p 32-33. Appendices H1, H2:

JOHN MALET OF ENMORE AND DEANDON
John Malet, the son of Baldwin and Mabilia, succeeded his father before the year 1286. He married Sibylla, the daughter of Sir Robert St. Cleere. In Sir A.M.'s MSS. there are eight notices, in two of which* he is styled "Johannes Malet Miles Dominus de Enemere filius et haeres Baldwini Malet Militis Ed. I." In another he styles himself "Johannes Malet miles filius et haeres Baldwini Malet Militis." The other entries are of no particular interest, except one, which appears to be an extract from the Devonshire post-mortem inquest dated 16 Edward I, A.D. 1288, from which, besides the names of some of his possessions, we learn that his son and heir Baldwin was then of the age of four years.

There existed a Thomas Malet of Deandon, Knight, son of John, who was, it is presumed, a younger brother of Baldwin, John Malet's son and heir. There was also a Thomas Malet, Knight the shire for Nottinghamshire, 4 and 5 Edward II, A.D. 1311-12, and 33 Edward III, A.D. 1366; I do not know if these persons are identical.
