WELLES·ÄîBARONS WELLES.
The first of this family mentioned by Sir William Dugdale is
ADAM DE WELLES, who, in the 6th of RICHARD I.,* paid 10 markes for adhering to John, Earl of Moreton, who at that time assumed more authority, during his brother's captivity, than he was afterwards able to justify. After this Adam came
WILLIAM DE WELLES, who, in the 9th of JOHN, gave 50 marks for one knight's fee in Grimsby, co. Lincoln, and was s. by another
WILLIAM DE WELLES, who in the 11th EDWARD I., obtained license for a weekly market and a yearly fair at his manor of Alford, in Lincolnshire. He m. Isabel de Vesci, and had two sons, William, a minor, 49th HENRY III., and
ADAM DE WELLES, who in the 22nd EDWARD I. was in the wars of Gascony, and was summoned to parliament, as a Baron, 6 February, 1299, in which year he was made constable of Rockingham Castle, and warden of the forest. The next year he was in the wars of Scotland, and again in 1301 and 1302; and had regular summonses to parliament to the year of his decease, 1311. He m. Joane, dau. and heir of John d'Engayne, and had a son,
ROBERT DE WELLES, baron, never summoned to parliament. This nobleman d. in two years after he had attained majority, anno 1320, and leaving no issue by his wife, Maud de Clare, widow of Roger de Clifford, he was s. by his brother,
ADAM DE WELLES, 3rd baron, summoned to parliament from 20 July, 1332, to 20 April, 1343. This nobleman, at the period of his brother's death, was only sixteen years of age; he attained his majority in the 20th EDWARD II., and doing his homage had livery of his lands. In the 7th EDWARD III. his lordship was in the wars of Scotland, and again in two years afterwards, at which latter period he was a knight. In the 16th of the same reign he was charged with ten men-at-arms and ten archers for the king's service in France, and the like number in the next year. He m. Margaret, dau. of John, Lord Bardolf, and dying 1345, left with a dau., Margaret, who m. William, son of William, Lord Deincourt, a son,
JOHN DE WELLES, 4th baron, summoned to parliament 15 December, 1357, and 20 November, 1360. The wardship of this nobleman, who was a minor at his father's decease, was granted to Margaret, widow of William, Lord Ros, of Hamlake. In the 22nd EDWARD III., although still in minority, he caused his father's executors to purchase a rent of ten pounds per annum, from the monks of Bardney, for the behoof of the abbess and suns of Grenefield, which monastery was founded by his ancestors; in consideration whereof they obliged themselves, and their successors, to find two fitting priests, to celebrate masses, matins, placebo, dirge, and commendation, every day in the chapel of our lady, within that their monastery of Grenefield, for the health of the souls of his lordship's predecessors. Lord Welles had livery of his lands in the 29th EDWARD III., and in four years afterwards he was in the wars of Gascony. He m. Maud, dau. of the aforesaid Margaret, Lady Ros, d. in 1361, and was s. by his son,
JOHN DE WELLES, 5th baron, summoned to parliament from 20 January, 1376, to 26 February, 1421. This nobleman served in the expedition made into Flanders, in the retinue of John, Duke of Lancaster, in the 27th EDWARD III., and in the 1st RICHARD II. was in the wars of France. The next year he was in the garrison of Berwick, under Henry Percy, Earl of Northumberland, its governor. His lordship subsequently obtained license to travel beyond sea, and returning in the 8th RICHARD II., had leave to go abroad again for the vindication of his honour, having received some affront from a knight in France. He seems to have come home solely to procure letters testimonial vouching for his credit and reputation. After this we find him in the Scottish wars; and in the 19th of the same reign, he was ambassador to Scotland, .... Of this Lord Welles nothing further is known than the period of his decease, anno 1421; .... Lord Welles m. Margaret, or Eleanor, dau. of‰ John, Lord‰ Mowbray, and had two daus., Margaret, m. 1st, John de Huntingfield; 2ndly, Stephen, 2nd Lord Scrope, of Masham; and Anne m. to James, 3rd Earl of Ormande.‰ He was s. by (the son of his deceased eldest son‰ Eudo, by his wife, Maude, dau. of Ralph, Lord Greystock) his grandson,
SIR LEO, or LIONEL DE WELLES, as 6th baron, summoned to parliament from 25 February, 1432, to 30 July, 1460. This nobleman received the honour of knighthood, in the 4th HENRY VI., from the Duke of Bedford at Leicester, with the young king himself, and divers other persons of rank. His lordship for several years after served with great honour in France, and was made lieutenant of Ireland for seven years, in the 16th of the same reign. When the fatal feud between the houses of York and Lancaster broke out, Lord Welles arrayed himself under the banner of the latter, and adhering to his colours with unbending fidelity, fell at the battle of Towton Field, on Palm Sunday, 1461. His remains were deposited in Waterton Chapel, at Methley, co. York. His lordship m. 1st, Joan, or by some accounts, Cecilia, only dau. of Sir Robert Waterton, of Waterton and Methley, co. York, and sister and heir of sir Robert Waterton, also of Waterton, Knt., and had issue,
.... etc.

_________________
John de Welles, 5th Baron Welles (1352·Äì1421) was an English soldier and noble the English ambassador to Scotland. He married Margaret "Eleanor," daughter of John, Lord Mowbray by Elizabeth, Baroness Segrave. He was born in Welle, Lincolnshire, England on 20th April 1352. John De Welles died on 26 August 1421.
At a banquet in Edinburgh , after arguing over who was the most gallant of their countrymen, he issued, as Champion of England, the following challenge to David Lindsay (later 1st Earl of Crawford): ·ÄúLet words have no place; if ye know not the Chivalry and Valiant deeds of Englishmen; appoint me a day and a place where ye list, and ye shall have experience.·Äù
As a result of the challenge, on St George·Äôs Day, 23rd April 1390, in the presence of Richard II of England , he fought David Lindsay in a jousting tournament on London Bridge.
The day for the encounter arrived, and the two knights fully armed in the plate armour of the period were conducted to the Bridge, where a daâØs had been erected for Richard II and the members of his Court.
All the suitable positions were occupied by the nobility, and elsewhere the populace crowded every available corner. When all was in readiness the heralds gave the signal and the two horsemen, spurring their heavy horses, charged full at one another.
Spears were broken, but both warriors remained seated firmly in their saddles. "The people beholding how stiffelie earle (sic) David sat without moving, cried that the Scottisman was locked in his saddle. He hearing this, leapt beside his horse, and verie nimblie mounted up againe into the saddle, armed as he was, to the great wonder of the beholders."
With fresh spears a second course was taken and once more the weapons were splintered "and yet without anie great hurt on either part." At the third collision Lord Welles was borne from his saddle and fell heavily to the ground, being "sore hurt." The onlookers appear to have thought he was killed, but Lindsay was quickly off his horse, and, kneeling by his side, he tenderly held him in his arms until the doctor came to tend his wounds.
