(fn. 33) He was made a knight in 1426 for his conduct at the battle of Verneuil in 1424. (fn. 34) Sir Thomas and Eleanor his wife were pardoned in 1427 for having married without the king's consent; she was the widow of Sir Philip Darcy. (fn. 35) Sir Thomas was on a commission of array in the same year. (fn. 36) There is again a slight defect in the evidence, (fn. 37) the next to appear being Sir Richard Tunstall, (fn. 38) a Lancastrian who was attainted in 1461, (fn. 39) but was afterwards pardoned and restored. (fn. 40) Sir Richard, who made a settlement of his manors in 1490 (fn. 41) and died in or before 1492, had a son William, who died in 1499, and a daughter Eleanor, whose son and heir Christopher Askew was then aged twenty-one. (fn. 42) The heir male was Thomas son of Thomas brother of Sir Richard, aged twenty, and his wardship was granted to Sir Edward Stanley of Hornby. (fn. 43)p. Keeper's Rep. xli, App. 751.dshire (ii, 270) Sir Richard was the son of Sir Thomas. See also Plantagenet Harrison, Yorks. i, 300.. VI, m. 41 d. He was squire of the body to Henry VI and in an act of resumption in 1455 an annuity of 50 marks was reserved to him as Sir Richard Tunstall, knight; Parl. R. v, 318. He was one of the king's feoffees in 1459; Ibid. 355Nether Burrow, &c., was in 1465 granted to Sir James Harrington; Cal. Pat. 1461–7, pp. 445, 461. Two inquiries were made as to Sir Richard's manors and lands. He held the castle and manor of Thurland, half the manor of Cantsfield, messuages, water mill, &c., in Tunstall, park called Fairthwaite, manor of Over Burrow with lands, &c., in Over Burrow, Nether Burrow and Gale; the manor of Leck, with lands', water mill, &c., there; messuages, &c., in Old Wennington, Nether Wennington, Hubberthorn in Warton, Arkholme, Docker, Hornby, Lancaster, Goosnargh and Newton (Whittington); Chan. Inq. p.m. 5 Edw. IV, no. 45. In 1465 the castle, manor and lordship of Thurland, &c., were granted to Sir James Harrington; but much of the estate was bestowed on John Tunstall, esq.; Cal. Pat. 1461–7, pp. 445, 460, 422.rl. R. vi, 47–8. Sir Richard is apparently the Tunstall who is celebrated in the ballad of 'Flodden Field' for his loyalty to the cause of Lancaster, where it is said that in consequence Henry VII called him 'undefined Tunstall' and that he fought at Stoke. The ballad erroneously names Brian, 'a trusty 'squire,' as his son instead of his nephew; and Scott in 'Marmion' seems to have misapplied the epithet quoted, as he calls Brian the 'stainless knight.'37. In 1493 as William son and heir of Sir Richard Tunstall he made a settlement of his manors, &c. The castle and manor of Thurland, with messuages and lands in Cantsfield, were held of Lord Harrington in socage. Elizabeth widow of Sir Richard claimed the dower which had been assigned to her in May 1492.
