Juliane 2nd Baroness de Leybourne |
William de Clinton; 1st and last Earl of Huntingdon, so created 13 March 1336/7, earlier (6 Sep 1330) called to Parliament by writ made out to "William de Clynton" thus according to later doctrine being created Lord (Baron) Clinton even though his elder brother was at one point sitting in Parliament under an identical title; knighted by 1324; Custodian of Halton Castle, Cheshire Sep 1327-48, Justice of Chester 1330-33 and Kent 1332, Constable of Dover Castle and Warden of the Cinque Ports 1330-43, Admiral of the West 1333-35, served Scottish Wars and Hundred Years War, fighting at Sluys 24 June 1340, took part in Crecy expedition 1346 but only as Admiral in command of the ships; married by 17 Oct 1328 Juliane (died between 31 Oct and 2 Nov 1367), daughter and heir of Sir Thomas de Leybourne, and widow of (a) Sir Thomas le Blount and (b) 3rd Lord (Baron) Hastings of the putative 1264 creation, dsp 25 Aug 1354, when his title expired. [Burke's Peerage]----------------------on the history of the Earldom of Huntingdon:When the third Simon de St Liz died in 1184 he left no surviving issue and David, younger brother of the Kings of Scots just mentioned, assumed the Earldom from 1185 (on the handing over of it to him by William the Lion) till it was taken away from him in 1215 or 1216 by King John. He got it back again in 1218, however. It is this David's daughter who married Sir Henry de Hastinges, ancestor of the Lords (Barons) Hastings of which the current Hastings holdersof the Huntingdon Earldom are cadets....A little over a century later the then Lord Clinton was promoted Earl of Huntingdon. Apart from his wife being the widow of Lord Hastings he seems to have had no family connection with the title's previous holders. On his death death without issue in 1354 the Earldom expired once more.
