Greville/Grivel

 

 
 

Note from Lord Greville

You need to know that one of the old spellings for Greville was Grivel, originally from the town of Greville in Normandy.

William Greville circa died 1294,

John Greville circa 1297,

William alive 1313,

William Greville of Camden,Lord of Milcote died 1401,

These are old lineage to me and are the direct relatives to the Warwick Earls,Barons and Lords Greville(Brooke).

The Greville motto is VIX EA NOSTRA VOCO.(I scarsley call these things my own).

If you need more info to present day please contact me.

Regards
Christopher,
Lord Fulke-Greville,

Notes for RICHARD GRIVELLE :

Warwick Castle

Further up the river Avon, we came to Warwick Castle, where we spent a couple of hours among the Tussaud wax statues that depict life as it might have been in the old days. Warwick is "English history in a nutshell."

Warwick first became important in history as we know it, in 914 when an Ethelfleda, daughter of the Anglo-Saxon Alfred the Great, ordered an earthen rampart built to protect their position from the invading Danish. In 1260 the wooden buildings began to be replaced by stone structures. In the 14th century, Thomas de Beauchamp (the family who had by this time attained the title of Earl of Warwick) began a massive reconstruction of the castle.

In 1604, the now dilapidated castle was presented by James I to Sir Fulke Greville. The estate remained in the hands of the Grevilles until 1978, when it was sold to the Tussauds group b y David Greville.

Chipping Campden (old silk mill, David Hart Silversmiths, St James' church, Sir Baptist Hick s statues, William Greville House). Broadway and the Lygon Arms, Stanton, Stanway, the beautiful Buckland Manor, Longborough, Lower Swell, Upper Swell, Lower Slaughter and Mill (over 1,0 00 year old bread mill), Upper Slaughter church and Manor Hotel.

Child of WILLIAM GRIVELL is:

i. MARGARET12 GRIVELL, m. RICHARD LYGON, JR..

Notes for RICHARD LYGON, JR.:

Richard Lygon, Junior, eldest son, was 21 years of age when his father died, and was probabl y born in 1490. On September 15, 1512 he granted his mother for her dower in Gloucestershire the Manor of Mattysdon. He married, not later than 1511 in Worcester, Margaret Greville (Grevell), daughter of William Greville (Grevell), a Justice of the Court of Common Pleas in 1510, who had been one of the feoffes of Richard Beauchamp. With her he acquired Arle Court near Cheltenham, where he appears to have lived during his mother's life.

After her death there was some differences between him and his younger brother, which was set tled by a friendly arbitration. In 1523, Richard was on a commission to collect the subsidy i n Worcester (L. & P., p. 1361). He was knighted at the coronation of Queen Anne Bolelyn on Ma y 30, 1535. In 1534, he was on the commission to make inquisition (P. M.) on the lands and he ir of John Lytilton of Frankley Weston. He was Sheriff of Gloucestershire 1534-35 and of Worc estershire 1548-49.

In 1535 he was Justice as a session held at Great Malvern and bound over James Asche, parso n of Staunton, to the council for calling the king antichrist. In 1536, Sir Richard Lygon wa s called to furnish 100 men to be sent against the northern rebels and to attend the king i n person. He served in the French War, 1544. In 1545, the expenses of the Hundred Courts of t he town of Slaughter were held by Richard Lygon, Chief Steward, and also he was Chief Stewar d of the King's Court at Cheltenham. Margaret, his wife, died in 1542, and Richard married (2 ) Joan, who survived him. Sir Richard died March 20, 1556.

He and his first wife had the following children:1. William Lygon, eldest son, of Redgrov e and Madresfield, born in 1518, was 44 years old at his father's death. While still under age he married in the autumn of 1529 Eleanor Dennis, daughter of Sir William Dennis (Denys) of Durham in Gloucestershire and his wife Anne Berkeley, daughter of Maurice Berkeley, Lord Berkeley, who died in 1506, and his wife, Isabel Meade The contract of marriage contains interesting particulars as to the provision for the young people. Richard Lygon and William Dennis were to find their children in apparel according to their degree, and William Dennis was t o find his daughter lodging so long as Margery and Anne Lygon were alive.

Like his father, William Lygon before his possession to Madresfield lived at Arle, and seem s to have been in possession of the family estates at Mattisdon, Uckington, Dormiston, and Cromhall in Gloucestershire; he was also one of the justices of the Hundred of Cheltenham. In 1 538, he was among the gentlemen listed by Lord Cromwell as meet to be preferred in the King' s service (Patent Rolls, p. 49). On July 9, 1540, he had a grant. He and his wife had a daughter, Cicely Lygon, who married in 1559, Edward Gorges, Esq., of Wroxall, born in 1537, died A ugust 29, 1568, son of Edmund Gorges. They had a son Ferdinando Gorges, Knight, colonizer o f Maine, born about 1565, died at Ashton Court near Bristol, England, May 1647, married (1) A nne Bell, buried in London August 6, 1620, daughter of Edward Bell and Margaret Barley, married December 21, 1621, (2) Mary Fulford.
