Notes about Nicholas MEYNELL

Second Lord Meinill of Whorlton

Notorious for wooing and bringing back to his castle at Whorlton, Lucy de Thweng, the wife of William de Latimer of Danby. He never married her and their son Nicholas was known as Nicholas de Meynell (or de Meinill), Nothus (bastard of a known father).

In 1293 he escaped capital punishment for murdering William Mowbray, his wife and two children by burning down their house at Easby, by pleading that he was a clerk; he had probably taken Holy orders to protect himself from the consequences of his crime.
