      “MARGARET (or MARGERY) DE GATESDEN, daughter and heiress, minor in 1269. She married by contract dated before April 1262 JOHN DE CAMOYS, Knt, of Flockthorpe (in Hardingham), Norfolk, Hinxton and Orwell, Cambridgeshire, West Tisted, Hampshire, Great Stukeley, Huntingdonshire, Pilton and Tansor, Northamptonshire, Wotton, Surrey, etc., and, in right of his wife, of Eling and Lasham, Hampshire, Broadwater, Elsted, and Trotton, Sussex, etc., son and heir of Ralph de Camoys, Knt., of Flockthorpe (in Hardingham), Norfolk, Hinxton and Orwell, Cambridgeshire, West Tisted, Hampshire, Great Stukeley, Huntingdonshire, Pilton, Tansor, Torpel, and Upton, Northamptonshire, Wotton, Surrey, etc., Constable of Pevensey, by Asceline, daughter Roger de Torpel. He was born about 1247-52 (aged variously 25, 26, or 30 in 1277). They had one son, Ralph, Knt. [1st Lord Camoys]. Sometime before 1268 he conveyed a moiety of the manor of Lasham, Hampshire to Robert Walerand. In 1275-6 he and his wife, Margaret, arraigned an assizee of mort d’ancestor against Nicholas Blundel touching a messuage and land in Elsted, Sussex. In 1276 John and his wife, Margery, sued Robert del Ostre and his wife, Rose, regarding their right to hospitality in a messuage in St. Michael Comhill, London. In 1276-7 he was granted letters of protection, he then going in the king's suite to the parts of Wales. In 1279 he and his wife, Margaret, successfully claimed free warren in Broadwater, Sussex. The same year he and his wife, Margaret, reached agreement with Richard de Pevensey and his wife, Isabel de Montagu, regarding the holdings of various manors; the said Richard and Isabel granted John and Margaret and her heirs the manors and advowsons of the churches of Norton [Fitzwarren] and Bradford-on-Tone, Somerset, and quitclaimed to them all their right in the manors of Stockholt (in Akeley), Buckinghamshire, Broadwater and Bovigeton, Sussex, and Eling, Hampshire. Sometime in the period, 1279-84, he conveyed the manor of Orwell, Cambridgeshire to John Kirkby, Bishop of Ely, and John Lovetot. In 1280 he vindicated his right to the advowson of Broadwater, Sussex against William son of Richard Hubard. The same year he granted Richard de Crofton £10 annual rent from the manor of West Tisted, Hampshire. In 1280 he released the manors of Torpel and Upton, Northamptonshire to the king and queen. The same year he and his wife, Margaret, recognized the right of the Prior of Boxgrove to certain land and a mill in Elsted, Sussex which Margaret's father, John de Gatesden, had held for his life by a lease from a former prior, and 17-1/2 acres in Elsted in the vale of Marden; they likewise granted the prior an acre in Tulonde. In 1280 Peter de Montfort and his wife, Maud; and her half-sister, Hawise le Veel, sued John and his wife, Margaret, regarding the manor of Norton [Fitzwarren], Somerset, which John and Margaret they said had no entry except by John de Gatesden (father of Margaret) who unjustly disseised Joan de la Mare, mother the said Maud and Hawise. In 1280-1 he and his wife, Margaret, arraigned an assize of novel disseisin against William de Brewes and others touching a tenement in Horsham, Sussex.

In 1304 he and his wife, Margaret, purchased the reversion of the manor of Cokeham (in Sompting), Sussex from her niece, Hawise de la Hyde, widow of Robert le Veel, Knt. In 1304-5 Hawise likewise conveyed the manor of Stow Bedon, Norfolk to William and his wife, Margaret. In 1308 William and his wife, Margaret, gave a release for land in Compton, Surrey to Henry de Guildford. He and his wife were summoned to attend the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308. His wife, Margaret, died shortly before 4 Jan. 1310/11.
