Notes par John FERRERS

John de Ferrers, 1st Baron Ferrers of Chartley (1271, Cardiff - c. 1324, Gascony) was the son of Robert de Ferrers, 6th Earl of Derby and Alianore de Bohun, daughter of Humphrey de Bohun and Eleanor de Braose, and granddaughter of Humphrey de Bohun, 2nd Earl of Hereford.

In 1264 John, without any true inheritance other than the turbulent spirit of his father, joined the Earl of Hertford and other rebellious Barons in opposing the collection of subsidies granted by the parliament then held at St Edmundsbury, to the crown.

The ferment was allayed by the King's confirming Magna Carta, and their charter of the forests; and by declaring that in future, no tax should be imposed upon the subject without the consent of Parliament, at the same time granting a pardon to the discontented lords and their adherents, in which pardon John de Ferrers is especially named.

Soon after this he petitioned Pope Nicholas III, to interfere to procure him the lands of his late father which he had conferred upon Edmund, Earl of Lancaster, but his suit was ineffectual.

In 1273, he was again involved in the wars against Scotland and subsequently in 1288 he was constituted Seneschal of Aquitaine by Edward II.

John was subsequently involved in the Scottish wars which led to his summoning to parliament as Baron Ferrers of Chartley, in the county of Stafford on 6 February 1299 (a seat which came into the family of Ferrers by the marriage of William de Ferrers, 5th Earl of Derby, with Agnes, sister and co-heir of Ranulph, Earl of Chester.)

Family
Sometime before 1300, Sir John married Hawise (Hawyse) de Muscegros. Hawise was born on 21 December 1276, a daughter of Robert de Muscegros. She was also a granddaughter of William Malet (Magna Carta baron) and heiress, and niece, of Cecilla de Muscegros, by whom he acquired a great increase in fortune. She died about June 1340.

The couple had one son Robert who was born in 1309 in Staffordshire and became Robert de Ferrers, 2nd Baron Ferrers of Chartley upon his father's death.

He died in 1324 in Gascony, apparently as a result of poisoning, and was succeeded by his son Robert.

Of Chartley, co. Stafford, Southoe and Keyston, co. Hunts, and Bugbrooke, co. Northants, the King took his homage on 21 Nov 1293, whereupon he had livery of those lands as heir of his grandmother, Margaret, Countess of Derby. On 13 Sep 1294, he had license to demise to Robert de Bures the manor of Chartley, for the life of said Robert. He was the principal supporter of the Earls of Hereford and Norfolk in their quarrel with the King in 1297. His attempts to regain the lands which had been forfeited by his father's rebellion, which included a payment for such to the Earl of Lancaster, did not meet with the King's approval and he was thus summoned to appear before the King's Court or suffer forfeiture of all his lands. He was summoned for military service from May 1297 to 28 May 1311, as well as to Parliament from 6 Feb 1298/99 to 19 Dec 1311. He was in the King's service in Scotland in 1298 and 1303, as well as Constable of the Army of Scotland in 1306. On 24 Jun 1311/12, he was appointed Seneschal of Gascony. About this time, which was probably in Aug 1312, John de Ferrers died in Gascony, "of poison, it was said" at the age of 41. His widow married John de Bures, whom she predeceased.
