      “ROBERT DE VIPONT, of Appleby, Westmorland, Eyworth, Bedfordshire, Buckland, Buckinghamshire, Staveley, Derbyshire, Perlethorpe, Nottinghamshire, Essendine, Rutland, Winderton (in Brailes), Warwickshire, Kimberworth (in Rotherham), Yorkshire, etc., son and heir, born about 1234 (a minor at his father's death in 1241, and came of age c.1254/6). He married after 19 Nov. 1242 ISABEL FITZ JOHN, daughter of John Fitz Geoffrey, Knt., of Shere, Surrey, Justiciar of Ireland, by Isabel, daughter of Hugh le Bigod, Earl of Norfolk [see VERDUN 8 for her ancestry]. They had two daughters, Isabel and Idoine (wife of Roger de Leyboume and John Cromwell, Knt., Lord Cromwell). In 1256 he made fine with the king by five marks of gold for having respite from his knighthood, and for having a charter for a market, fair, and warren. In 1258 he sued Walter, parson of Newbiggin, Northumberland for poaching in his deer park. The same year he fought in Wales. In 1258 John de Gravenel granted him by fine the manor of Eyworth, Bedfordshire, for which Robert granted him a moiety of the manor of Buckland, Buckinghamshire for life, except the hall, with 12 librates of land in Newbottle, Northamptonshire. He was one of the most violent of the barons in arms against King Henry III, he being an adherent of Simon de Montfort. His name occurs among the list of barons whose seal was required to ratify the peace between King Henry III and the barons in 1261. In 1263 he excused his absense as plaintiff in a plea in Westmorland on the ground of infirmity. ROBERT DE VIPONT died testate shortly before 5 July 1264.

She married (1st) before 1276 ROGER DE LEYBOURNE (or LEYBURNE), in right of his wife, of Brough under Stainmoor, Westmorland, Buckland, Buckinghamshire, Perlethorpe, Nottinghamshire, Kimberworth (in Rotherham), Yorkshire, etc., younger son of Roger de Leyboume, Knt., of Elham, Kent, Steward of the King's Household, Warden of the Cinque Ports, Warden of the Forests beyond Trent.

In 1280-1 Thomas de Hellebek' arraigned an assize against Roger and his wife, Idoine, touching common of pasture in Brough-under-Stainmore, Westmorland. ROGER DE LEYBOURNE died shortly before 21 Feb. 1283/4. In 1293-4 his widow, Idoine, was summoned to answer the king by what warrant she claimed to have free warren in Bawtry, Kimberworth, and Austerfield, gallows, infangthief, and outgangthief in Bawtry, and a market and fair in Kimberworth, all in Yorkshire. She was co-heir in 1297 to her uncle, Richard Fitz John, Knt., Lord Fitz John. Idoine married (2nd) before 25 June 1302 (later dispensation dated 15 March 1317, they being related in the 4th degree of kindred) (as his 2nd wife) JOHN DE CROMWELL, Knt., of Carlton on Trent, Nottinghamshire, Beeston, Cheshire, Englefield, Flintshire, Hope, Shropshire, Austerfield, Yorkshire, etc., Constable of Chepstow Castle, 1307-8, Constable of the Tower of London, 1307/8, 1310-23, 1326/7-35, Justice of the Forest south of Trent, 1317, Admiral of the Fleet, 1324, and in right of his 2nd wife, of Eyworth, Bedfordshire, Amersham, Buckland, and Singleborough (in Great Horwood), Buckinghamshire, Staveley, Derbyshire, Moulton, Cromwells (in Potterspury), and Yardley, Northamptonshire, Perlethorpe, Nottinghamshire, Essendine, Rutland, Winderton (in Brailes), Warwickshire, West Winterslow, Wiltshire, Kimberworth (in Rotherham) and Maltby, Yorkshire, etc., younger son of Ralph de Cromwell, Knt., oi Cromwell, Nottinghamshire, by his 2nd wife, Margaret, daughter of Roger de Somery [see STAFFORD 4 for his ancestry]. They had no issue. He was engaged in the French and Scottish wars. In 1305 he accused Nicholas de Segrave, Knt. of treason and was defied by him to battle. He was summoned to Parliament 10 March 1307/8 to 1 April 1335, by writs directed Jobanni de Crimped' or Crumbewelr, whereby he is held to have become Lord Cromwell. In 1308 he and his wife, Idoine, obtained a grant of free warren in several manors including Kimberworth cm Rotherham), Yorkshire, Eyworth, Bedfordshire, Buckland, Buckinghamshire, and Essendine, Rutland. In 1313 he obtained a papal indult for a portable altar. In 1317 he and his wife, Idoine, obtained a pa indult to choose their confessors. In 1318 he complained that his park in Essendine, Rutland was broken into. hr 1319 he and Robert de Umfreville, Knt were appointed wardens of Northumberland, and the parts adjacent. In, 1320-1 John and his wife, Idoine, settled various manors, including Amersham, Buckland, and Singleborough (in Great Horwood), Buckinghamshire, Moulton, Potterspury, and Yardley, Northamptonshire, Perlethorpe, Nottinghamshire, Essendine, Rutland, Winderton (in Brailes), Warwickshire, West Winterslow, Wiltshire, etc. on. themselves for the life of Idoine, with successive remainders to Hugh le Despenser, Knt., the younger and Hugh le Despenser, Knt. the elder for life, and thence to Edward son of Hugh le Despenser, Knt. the younger and his heirs. He fought on the part of the king at the Battle of Boroughbridge 16 March 1321/2. In 1325 Robert de Wombwell and Robert Tree were fined £300 for damages done by wilful entryof the manors of Moulton and Yardley, Northamptonshire, where they devastated the goods and furniture of John de Cromwell and expelled him by force and arms. He was a supporter of Queen Isabel and fled abroad with her in 1326. That year King Edward II seized all of John's lands, including those held in right of his wife, because he stayed out of England without license. In August 1326 his wife, Idoine, was allowed to receive the issues and profits of the manors Buckland, Buckinghamshire, Moulton, Northamptonshire, and Essendine, Rutland during pleasure, and to retak her own robes, beds, and jewels, and other things pertaining to her chamber. John probably returned to England early in the reign of King Edward HI, as he was suing his bailiff touching his accounts for the manor of Essendine, Rutland in 1327. He was granted a weekly market and a yearly fair at his manor of Carlton on Trent, Nottinghamshire in 1328. In 1330 John and his wife, Idoine, claimed view of frankpledge in the manor of Moulton, Northamptonshire. In 1331 he and his wife, Idoine, and his son, Richard, obtained papal indults far plenary remission at the hour of death. In 1331 John and his wife, Idoine, took advantage of the statute annulling all fines levied by force and duress after the exile of the Despensers, and tried to obtain an annulment of the fine of 1320-1, which they said had been so levied. They were evidently unsuccessful. His widow, Idoine, died shortly before 18 Nov. 1333. SIR JOHN DE CROMWELL, Lord Cromwell, died shortly before 8 October 1335.

In 1263 Roger de Clifford, John Giffard of Brimpsfield, and other local dissidents successfully laid siege to Gloucester Castle in an attempt to remove the French knight Mari de Bezille from his office as county sheriff. The castle was later garrisoned for the Crown by Roger de Clifford who, having returned to his allegiance, was given custody of it at the end of 1263. In Feb. 1264 he was ordered to fortify and hold the bridge at Gloucester, while all other bridges on the Severn were to be destroyed. In 1264 he played a prominent part in the Siege of Nottingham, where he took Simon de Montfort the younger as prisoner. He was taken prisoner at the Battle of Lewes 14 May 1264; he was among those who were released on condition of appearing in parliament when summoned.

In 1286 Roger, Vicar of Tenbury, was sued in the Exchequer by William Barrett, Chamberlain of London, and another for 12 marks which Sir Roger de Clifford, being deceased, owed the plaintiffs. In 1290 Cuntassa, late the wife of Roger of Clifford, requested the king's grace, stating that she has been grievously distrained by the sheriffs for various debts of her husband, but that she is not his heir, and only holds what the king has granted to her for life, and is unable to render the debts. In 1292 his widow was summoned by writ of Quo Warranto to satisfy the king whether she claimed to have free warren and hold pleas of the Crown in her manor of Bridge Sollers, Herefordshire.
