In 1325-6 his parents settled the reversion of a messuage and lands in Woolavington, Sussex on him. He married (1st) before 1330 MARGARET FOLIOT, younger daughter of Richard Foliot, Knt., of Gressenhall and Weasenharn, Norfolk, by Joan, daughter and co-heiress of William de Brewes (or Breuse), Knt. [see MIDHURST 6 for her ancestry]. She was born about 1314 (aged 16 in 1330). They had one daughter, Katherine (wife of Hamon le Strange, Knt). In the period, 1343-5, he and his wife, Margaret, made a settlement of the manors of Gressenhall and East Lexham, Norfolk, together with the advowsons of Gressenhall and Stanfield, Norfolk. In 1344 he and his wife, Margaret, settled the manor and advowson of Cowesby, Yorkshire on themselves and the heirs of their bodies, with remainder to Hugh de Hastings, Knt., and Margery his wife, and the heirs of Margery. He fought at the Battle of Crecy 26 August 1346, and was present at the Siege of Calais in 1346-7. In 1347-8 he and his unnamed wife were residing at Hunstanton, Norfolk. He presented to the church of Gressenhall, Norfolk in 1348, 1349, and 1361. He married (2nd) before 1351 ELIZABETH LE LATIMER, daughter of William le Latimer, 3rd Lord Latimer, by Elizabeth, daughter of John Botetourt, Knt., 1st Lord Botetourt [see THWENG 10 for her ancestry]. They had two sons, Thomas, K.G. [1st Lord Camoys] and possibly Hugh, Esq., and one daughter, Maud. He was summoned to a Council in 1359, by writ directed Johanni de Camoys. In 1361 John de Trailly, of Yelden, Bedfordshire owed him and three others a debt of £30. SIR JOHN DE CAMOYS was living 5 May 1362 (date of deed). His widow, Elizabeth, married (2nd) before 1365-6 RALPH DE UFFORD. In 1382-3 Elizabeth Camoys, possibly his widow, was paid 50s. by Sir Edward Courtenay, Earl of Devon out of his manor of Waddesdon, Buckinghamshire.
