   Humphrey de Bohun, K.G. (25 March 1341/2–16 January 1372/3)[1][2]
   
   Humphrey, 7th Earl of Hereford, 6th Earl of Essex, 2nd Earl of Northampton, known as Humphrey X, was the son of William de Bohun, 1st Earl of Northampton and Elizabeth de Badlesmere, and grandson of Humphrey de Bohun, 4th Earl of Hereford by Elizabeth of Rhuddlan, daughter of King Edward I.[3]
   He became heir to the Earldom of Hereford after the death of his childless uncle Humphrey de Bohun, 6th Earl of Hereford.
   He married Joan, daughter of Richard de Arundel, Knt., 10th Earl of Arundel, 9th Earl of Surrey, and his 2nd wife Eleanor of Lancaster.[2] (Humphrey's sister Elizabeth married Joan's brother Richard, 11th/4th Earl.[4]) A papal dispensation for the marriage, required because they were related in the 4th degree, was dated 9 September 1359, and the license for the marriage was dated 17 October 1359.[2]
   Their children were
   Eleanor de Bohun, who married Thomas of Woodstock, K.G., Duke of Gloucester.[2]
   Mary de Bohun,[2] who married Henry of Bolingbroke, the future King Henry IV of England.[5]
   possibly Elizabeth, who died young.[6]
   In 1360 he succeeded his father as Earl of Northampton.[7] On 15 October 1361 he succeeded his father as Earl of Hereford and Essex and Constable of England.[2][3]
   In November 1363 he headed an escort of King Peter I of Cyprus from Dover to London. In 1367 he crusaded with King Peter in the Levant. He was back in London by May 1368.[8]
   He was made a Knight of the Garter in 1365.[3] He was appointed chief Ambassador to Milan in 1366.[2] He undertook diplomatic missions in 1366 and 1367, and headed an Embassy to the Duke of Brittany in 1371.[3]
   In 1369 "he had command in the expedition against France"[2] with John of Gaunt.[9]
   Humphrey died on 16 January 1372/3 and was buried at Walden Abbey, Essex.[2][3] His daughters Eleanor and Mary were coheirs of his vast estates.[3]
   Humphrey's will, dated 12 December 1372, was proved 15 May 1373.[2][10] His widow, Joan, died in 1419.[2]
   Research Notes
   There is no mention of a daughter of Humphrey de Bohun and Joan Fitzalan called Elizabeth in the works of Douglas Richardson, nor in Medieval Lands, nor in T Anna Leese's Blood Royal.[11] The Wikipedia article on her father lists a daughter Elizabeth who died young.[6] Some family trees on the internet include Elizabeth without giving sources.[12] It would be good to find more evidence for her existence. - Michael Cayley, 24 March 2019
   
   Contrary to what is said on Wikipedia[6], Humphrey appears not to have participated in the sack of Alexandria in Egypt in 1365: it was only in 1367 that he joined Peter I of Cyprus's crusading forces.[8]
   
   Some websites wrongly suggest that, as he had no son, Humphrey's estates should have passed to his cousin Gilbert de Bohun, and that it was royal intervention which led to them passing between his daughters.[13] This shows a lack of understanding of the laws of feudal inheritance, under which his daughters were entitled to share the estates.
   
   The Walden Cartulary gives a different date of death of 16 Feb 1372.[14]
