d c 1333 13th Lord of Shelton was Knighted of Shire of Cumberland.
m Margaret ? ABT 1301, Shelton, Norfolk, England |
Kathryn M Brown, p 16, says he suceeded his cousin, Richard,
to the Shelton estates. He was also known as John de Schelton. He
lived in Skelton Castle, Cumberland; and was a Knight of the Shire of Cumberland.
Kathryn M Brown, p 13, gives quite a bit of data on Sir John
and lists his two wives as Maud and Hawys, daughter of Prince
of Powys of Wales.
By 12 Nov 1306, he had done homage for his inheritance and the escheator beyong Trent was ordered to deliver his lands to him. In 1302, John was found to have a quarter fee in Shelton, held of the Earl Marshall as well as land in Heverlond. He was summoned to the Great Council in Westminster 9 May 1324. John DeShelton married Margaret (also called Maud). Some sources says that she was the daughter of Robert De Brus, E. Carrick, and Margaret De Galloway, w. of William De Carlyle. The marriage seems to have been very unhappy. He was dead by 1333, for 27 Jan 1333 a writ was issued from York ordering John De Blomvill, escheator in the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk etc., to take into the King�s hands, the lands late of John De Shelton, tenant-in-chief. In another writ from Cowick the following 15 Mar, the escheator was ordered to ensure that any dower assigned to Margaret, widow of John De Shelton was removed from her hands, as the King had learned that she had long withdrawn from her husband to be with her paramour and since she was never reconciled with him, should have no dower. Copinger says that she eventually remarried to Thomas Kenyng. There is also an Edmund Shelton in this time frame who possibly is part of this family. A writ of protection was issued to Edmund De Shelton 28 Mar 1324 for going with the King�s brother Edmund, Earl of Kent beyond the seas. 30 Apr 1327 a writ issued from Nottingham |

and his wife
m Agatha, probably a daughter of Sir John Gedding of Lincolnshire. The arms of Gedding were found by Blomefield to impale those of Shelton in several armorial windows and manuscripts. She appears to have died before 1313, for in that year John Shelton settled the same manor on himself, his wife Joan and their heirs. The Visitation has her as the second wife and has no children assigned to her. Blomefield has a third wife for John Shelton, Alice daughter of Sir Robert de Burgullion, though the Visitation does not. Sir John Shelton sold lands near the Church of St Helen near Mundham to Walter De Filby and Sir Thomas Preston. He apparently did not survive his father for long since Apr 1333, William, Bishop of Norwich was given custody of the lands of Ralph Shelton son of John Shelton during his minority. Alice Shelton died before 1334, her IPM being 26 Aug 1335 where in Shelton she held a messuage, lands and rents held for her life of the inheritance of Ralph De Shelton etc. A writ issued 1 May 1334 with an order m1: Agatha GEDDING dau of Sir John Gedding) |

Ralph SHELTON (Sir d 1315, Shelton, Norfolk, England
d 17 Nov 1378, Shelton, Norfolk bur Nov 1378, St. Marys, Shelton, Norfolk, England William, Bishop of Norwich was given custody of his
estates in 1333 until such time as Ralph attained majority. At his mother's
death in 1334, he was made Lord of the Manor. Though because the honor
of knighthood was so expensive, he put off that title as long as possible.
In 1346, King Edward III granted his letters of patent showing that
he was in the King's own company at Crecy ( a great English victory
in the Hundred Years' War 1337-1453, a succession of wars between England
and France. It was one of the first battles in which the English soldiers
used gunpowder) and was knighted for his part in saving the life of the
Black Prince. He built the Old Shelton Hall which was destroyed
by fire in 1600.
| According
to both Blomefield and the Visitation, on his marriage to Joan de Plays
in 1346, Ralph settled Shelton and Bedingham manors on himself,
his wife and their issue. Kathryn M Brown, p 18, adds additional
information and shows four children: Sir Ralph, John, William,
and
Robert. Through his first marriage, Sir Ralph became
heir to the great estates of Sir Ralph Burgullion of Great Snoring,
Suffolk, England, and of Rediston. He was also Lord of the Manor of BrentElleigh
in Suffolk. In Aug 1362, he and Sir Oliver De Calthorpe witnessed
a quit claim between Ralph De Hemenhale and Creeke Abbey.
In a writ issued from Westminster 10 Nov 1364, William De Elmham,
who was going beyond the seas, had letters nominating Sir Ralph Shelton
and
Geoffrey Dersham as his attorneys. 12 May 1367 the King
appointed
Ralph, Sir William De Hoo and Sir Edmund Thorp
to make inquisitions into the King�s business in Norfolk and Suffolk
to ensure that the King was receiving all the revenue to which he
was entitled. 6 Oct 1368, he attended the wedding of the same Sir Edmund
Thorp to Margaret daughter of Richard De La Rivere. 28
Mar 1371, Ralph, Robert Le Mortimer, Roger Geneye,
William Clere, William De Norton and John De Cressingham
were ordered by the King to collect a parish subsidy in Norfolk
to safeguard the defense of England and further the war in France. The
following 8 Jun the same men were given a mandate to collect in Norfolk
without delay, a subsidy of 116 shillings from each parish amounting to
4674 pounds. 1 Feb 1376, Ralph was ordered to take into the King�s
hands the lands in the county of Suffolk of Roger Le Walsh, deceased
and to make inquiries touching his lands and as to his heir. He died soon
after and in his will, Sir Ralph Shelton ordered his body to be
buried in the chancel of St Mary�s church at Shelton. Copinger
says he died 17 Nov 1373,
Blomefield gives 1375 and the Visitation
says his will was made 6 Oct 1378 and proved 30 Nov 1380 (though they do
not have the text of his will). The Calendar of Inquisitions Post Mortem,
writ issued 30 Mar 1376 says he died 16 Oct last (1375) and left with his
wife Joan, daughters Joan aged 12,
Margaret aged 5
and Isabel, half a year.

| Sh17-1 | Sir Ralph SHELTON b c 1347, Shelton, Norfolk d 25 Apr 1424 bur Great Snoring church, Suffolk, England
m Alice UVEDALE b 1351 dau of Sir Thomas de Uvedale of Tacolneston | When he was 2 years old, he inherited Great Snoring and Thirsford co Norfolk from his kinsman Hugh De Burgullion. The NRS Vol 19 pt 2 in the biographical notes of the Archdeaconry of Norfolk donors, notes Hugh De Burgullion son of Sir Robert Burgullion, the younger (this Sir Robert being a brother of Alice De Burgullion wife of Sir John Shelton), who died childless around 1349. The NRS goes on to say that it seems that Anne Burgullion who married Sir Ralph Shelton, senior, was his sister for at his death the Burgullion estates passed to the Sheltons. In 1376, Ralph inherited his father�s lands and estate on his death and at this time he was married to Alice Uvedale. 21 Dec 1382, he with other prominent men of Norfolk received a directive from the King to investigate treasonable insurrection in the county and another writ in the same time frame was issued for Ralph and John, Duke of Lancaster; John De Clifton; Robert De Howard and Oliver De Calthorpe to be made commissioners of the peace and oyer and terminer for the county of Norfolk. He was asked to perform the same function with John, Duke of Norfolk 25 Apr 1386, 12 Jul 1388, 15 Jul 1389 (along with Simon Barrett this time), on 28 Jun 1390, 5 Mar 1397, 22 Jul 1397 (with John, Duke of Lancaster), 12 Nov 1397 (with John, Duke of Lancaster; Edmund, Duke of York; John, Duke of Exeter; Thomas, Duke of Norfolk and Simon Barrett). 1 Mar 1384, Sir Ralph Shelton and others were directed to enquire about the trespass and other offences in the prior of St Mary�s, Walshingham co Norfolk, where quarrels had arisen between the prior and convent. Was on the voyage of St. Malbes de L'Isle and into Scotland with Richard II and then into Spain, where Sir Hugh Hastings died. In 1385, Ralph attended John of Gaunt on his great expedition in Spain and was at the famous battle of Nazarett. In 1397 a grand breakfast was provided at Norwich for Sir Ralph Shelton, Sir Edmund Thorp and many others of the nobility and gentry of Norfolk. 20 Jun 1398 he and Sir Miles Stapleton and others were commissioned to redress offences and execute statues in Norfolk. 14 Jul 1402, the King directed Sir Ralph along with Sir Thomas Bardolf, Sir Thomas Morley and Sir John Heveningham to array men at arms to defend the sea coast against an invasion of the King�s enemies and 2 Jul 1405 he was again ordered to assembly men at arms to resist the King�s enemies from France and Picardy and then to go to Wales to strengthen troops there. When his step-mother Joan Shelton died in 1405/6, Ralph was 58 years old and inherited the remainder of her estate as she left no heirs of her own. 14 Jul 1406 he was again commissioned to go to Wales to strengthen the King�s forces there. King Henry IV was like most medieval kings in monetary straits from constant warfare, and 4 Sep 1405 he ordered Sir Ralph Shelton, Edmund Oldhall, Nicholas Wichingham and the Sheriff of Norfolk to collect money from the Norfolk parishes for a loan to King Henry IV to defend against the King�s enemies in Wales and enemies in France who have landed in Wales. 5 Nov 1406, he was directed by the King to determine the worth of the Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex estates of the late Sir Robert De Hemenhale and to determine who Sir Robert�s next heir would be. In 1409, Ralph presented Henry Turnour as pastor at Hardwick church. 1 Dec 1411, he was directed to mediate a dispute between Sir Thomas Morley and Sir Thomas Hemgrave. In 1424, not long before his death, Ralph along with John, Duke of Norfolk; Walter, Bishop of Norwich and John Heydon purchased Neville�s manor in Hethill co Norfolk. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

married as his second wife Margaret, daughter of Sir John Scott
of Scots Hall co Kent. He was made a Knight Banneret 9 Jun 1487 and
his will was dated 12 Oct 1496 and proven 28 Jan 1496/7.

Oxford. During the years 1632-1639 he received the livings of Hackney (1633);
Oddington, Oxfordshire; Ickford, Buckinghamshire (1636); and Newington,
Oxfordshire; besides being a prebendary of Gloucester from 1632. In 1638
he was on a commission appointed to visit Merton College, Oxford. He was
intimate with the Royalist leaders, participated in the negotiations for
the Uxbridge treaty of 1644, and collected funds for Charles II

and imprisoned for some months, but he regained the wardenship in 1659.
In 1660 he became bishop
of London and master of the Savoy, and the Savoy Conference was held
at his lodgings. He was consecrated archbishop
of Canterbury in 1663. He was greatly interested in the welfare of
Oxford University, of which he became chancellor in 1667, succeeding Edward
Hyde, 1º Earl of Clarendon (b. 1609 - d. 1674). The Sheldonian
Theatre at Oxford was built and endowed at his expense.

Barrett, daughter and heir of Simon Barrett co Norfolk and through
her he held the manor of Barrett�s in Hardwick. 2 Dec 1404, he received
a pardon from the King for not appearing in court to answer Walter
De Watham concerning a debt of 20 marks. 8 Feb 1415 William
received another pardon, this time from King Henry V, for not appearing
before justices of the bench of Henry IV to answer Robert Blake
of London on a debt of 40 shillings. He died 20 Jul 1421 and his IPM was held 9 Oct 1421.
The Visitation of Norfolk says that he was executor of
his brother Sir Ralph Shelton, but as William died in 1421 and Sir Ralph in 1424,
William could not have been his brother�s
surviving executor. For the same reason, he could not have survived as
executor of his brother Robert who died in 1423. William
must have married late in life and to a much younger woman, as he was quite

survived for many years and from 1426-1452 �Katherine, Lady of Shelton,
relic of William Shelton�, presented 9 different rectors to the church
at Hardwick. In 1426 she held fees in Shelton and 1432 presented
to the church at Thirsford as a patron. Catherine died 3 Aug 1456

became lord of the manor at Shelton, Norfolk, after the death of his father. Some sources
say that he was succeeded by his brother, William, who apparently
had no sons, and was succeeded by his nephew, Ralph. But others,
and according to the dates I agree with them, says that John was
William son. 27 Feb 1422 the King commissioned Edmund Wynter
and Richard Elleswyk to the keeping of all lands late of William
Shelton, Esq tenant-in-chief by knight�s service, during the minority
of John, his son and heir, with the marriage of the latter also
given to their custody. He had livery of his lands in 1427. In 1428, he
held fees in Osmundeston, Bedingham, and Kerdeston. He died a young man
on the Monday before the Feast of St George the Martyr, 23 Apr 1431, seized
of the manors of Brent Illegh co Suffolk, Shelton Netherhall, Snoring,
Thetford and Hindringham, IPM dated 9 May 1431. 1 Apr 1431, the escheator
for Norfolk was directed to take into the King�s hands the lands
late of John Shelton, Esq in Norfolk and Suffolk. After her husband�s
death
Margaret Bures or Brewys held the manor of Brent Illegh
for life. 20 Jul 1432, she was given license from the King for 1
mark paid in the hanaper to demise 1/3 of the manors of Great Snoring and
Shelton co Norfolk. 10 Jul 1432 she received the King�s permission
to marry to whom ever she wished �of the King�s allegiance�. Margaret
remarried to Robert Allington, son of William Allington and
Joan de Burgh and died in 1479.

Notes: eldest son and heir. At his father�s death, he had livery of his inheritance including Shelton, Snoring, Carrow and others and 8 Jun 1559 he was given license to take possession. He was High Sheriff of Norfolk in 1570. During his term as High Sheriff, he developed a close relationship with John Parkhurst, Bishop of Norwich. The Bishop held Ralph in great esteem as seen in a series of letters published in the Norfolk Record Society and Ralph proved to be a great ally during the prosecution of George Thimelthorpe, one of the county officers accused of corruption. Sometime after 1558, Ralph sold the Suffolk manor of Mildren which had been in his family since 1480 to Robert Thorpe. 31 May 1561, he paid 5 pounds in alms for William Godsalve, Esq., who had died very suddenly. 8 May 1566, he was made commissioner of the sewers with several other Norfolk notables. In 1573, he presented William Mann as the rector of Hardwick church and in 1576 presented Reginald Nuthall as rector to the same church. He was knighted at Norwich by Queen Elizabeth 22 Aug 1578 along with Thomas Knevett, Edward Clere, Roger Wodehouse, Henry Wodehouse. 19 Jun 1573, Ralph was made a justice of the peace for Norfolk and appointed again 23 Jun 1574. 20 Mar 1574 Ralph was commissioned with Edward Flowerdew and Roger Wodehouse to inquire into the death of Edward Cusshin and 17 Sep of the same year, served in the same capacity upon the death of Stephen Burrell. Ralph married 13 Sep 1551 Mary, daughter of Sir William Wodehouse of Waxham. In the Shelton family church at the manor, there are ten panels on the left side of the altar, which record the marriage of Mary Wodehouse and Ralph Shelton, as well as the birth of their children Margaret, Thomas, John, Ralphe, and Edward. She was buried at Shelton 6 Jul 1558. He married secondly 16 Oct 1570 at Shelton to Anne, daughter of Thomas Barrow, Esq of Barningham co Suffolk by Mary daughter and coheir of Henry Bures at Acton co Suffolk. Sir Ralph died 3 Oct 1580 and was buried at Shelton on the north side of the altar 6 Oct 1580. His IPM was held 25 Apr 1582 and another 28 Apr 1584 where he was found to hold Carrow in Norwich which he had prior to his death settled on Thomas Barrow with remainder to Anne and his children by her, as well as being seized of Shelton, Snoring Magna, Barettes and Thirsford. His widow Anne, married after 9 Jun 1585 as her second husband Sir Charles Cornwallis and they jointly held Carrow Abbey. In 1589 she presented to the church of St Julian�s in Norwich. Sir Charles Cornwallis had a distinguished career including serving as Ambassador to Spain and treasurer and died at Harborne co Suffolk 21 Dec 1629. m1 Mary WODEHOUSE dau of Sir William Wodehouse of Waxham and Elizabeth Calthorpe) 15 Sep 1551, Shelton Manor |

knighted at Theobald's, Warwickshire, England in 1607. According
to records in the British Museum, he was Minister to Spain, Secretary to
the Prince of Wales and one of the entourage of the Earl of Carlisle
on the trip to France in 1612 to arrange for the marriage of Charles
I with the sister of the French King. It was this Sir Ralph
who held the Norfolk and Sufolk estates in 1606 (succeeding his brother
John) prior to the sale of Shelton. In an account of his marriage
to Jane West he is given as Ralph Sheldon, Esquire of Beoley,
Worcestershire. Sir Ralph was a member of the Second and Third London
Companies. In all the Colonial records of the Second Charter granted to
the London Companies, 23 May 1609, the names of Sir Ralph Shelton of
Norfolk England, a Captain Shelton and a James Shelton, Gentleman,
appear. The Second London Company sailed under Lord
De La Warr with nine ships and 500 people. The admiral's ship named
"Sea Venture". They landed in America in 1610. A charter was granted to
the Third London Company in 1611. As a member of Parliment, Sir Ralph
signed the petition circulated there by the Company in 1610. There is nothing
to indicate that Sir Ralph ever came to America to live. If so,
he returned to England; but his son James Shelton, Gentlman, came
with Lord
De La Warr in Jun 1610, remained and founded the Shelton family
of America and Virginia.

also says that William married secondly to Elizabeth daughter
of Richard Townshend of Rainham by Catherine daughter of
Sir Humphrey Brown. In Anne�s father�s will there is a curious
note �to daughter Godsalve ?200, if she marry some gentleman by her
own consent with the advice of her friends� which suggests that her
husband died by this time so there would seem to be some conflict in the
fact that he married again after her death in 1588. Another unresolved
conflict is that Blomefield notes that 31 May 1561 Mr Ralph Shelton
paid 5 pounds to be given in alms for William Godsalve, Esq who
died very suddenly in Whitsun week. The Harleian Society has her married
to a second husband named Grey.

In a letter from Eleanor Brydges to the Earl of Rutland it was written that "no one ever bought her husband more dearly", speaking of an incident when the Queen reportedly broke Mary�s finger by hitting her with a hairbrush. The Queen, in a passion at the discovery of what had taken place, "telt liberall bothe with bloes and yevel words". But after that, Elizabeth not only sanctioned the marriage, but appointed the new Mrs. Scudamore as gentlewoman of the bedchamber.

| Sh18-8-2-1-2 | Sir Richard SHELTON buried: 7 Dec 1647, West Bromwich
Notes: second son. Often called Sir Richard Shelton of Rowley Regis, from the manor of that name in Warwickshire. Richard studied law at the Inner Temple and was employed by the Duke of Buckingham to handle his private affairs. He was appointed by King Charles I as Solicitor General Oct 1625 and was knighted by the King at Hampton Court 31 Oct 1625. Sir Richard was elected to Parliament for Bridgnorth 17 Jan 17 Jan 1625/6 and for Guildford 3 Feb, but in the commons his lack of debating skills and general incompetence made him easy prey for the opposition. 6 Mar 1627/8 he was re-elected to Parliament for Bridgnorth and in 1628 was appointed treasurer of the Inner Temple. In Oct 1634 being according to Clarendon �an old, illiterate, useless person�, he was forced to resign as Solicitor General and was succeeded by Sir Edward Littleton. Richard retired to his manor at West Bromwich which he had acquired from his cousin William Stanley in 1626 and lived there peacefully during the Civil War. Richard was mentioned in the will of his brother Robert 23 May 1642. 23 Jul 1642 Lettice died and was buried at West Bromwich. Sir Richard Shelton of West Bromwich, co Staffs, made his will 26 Jul 1642 where he asked to be buried in the church in West Bromwich near his recently deceased wife. He mentions William Boothe of Middle Temple, Humphrey Lowe of Oaksmoore co Salop (possibly married to his sister Alice), Thomas Pearson of Clement�s Inn, niece Folliot and her husband and children, nephews Richard and Henry Lowe, unmarried daughter of his brother �Roger� (Robert) Shelton, sister Shelton. He named as his right heir Alice Lowe who received lordship of West Bromwich. Executors were Humphrey Lowe and Thomas Boothe, who proved his will 10 May 1648.

Notes: Third son, a clerk who was Master of Metingham College and still living in 1538 when he was mentioned in the will of his brother Ralph Shelton of Brome. Copinger says that Mettingham Castle was converted to a college and the arms of Richard Shelton, one of the last master of the college with several matches of his family ornament the walls of the Keep which was the residence of the master. In 1492, he was named in the will of his maternal grandmother Elizabeth Clere. Richard held the manor of Peter�s Hall in Bunwell. 27 Nov 1505, King Henry VII issued a writ from Westminster issuing a pardon to Sir John Tate, John Shelton, Richard Shelton and 300 others of all offenses in regulating trade. He was probably the Richard Shelton who presented the rector at the church at Redenhall in 1518. Blomefield noted that Richard had such skill in water works that in 1528, his advice was used in cutting Yarmouth Haven. |

As the son of Robert de Shelton was either not yet born or an infant in 1277, it was likely this John who is referenced. If so, then he was likely the John de Shelton summoned from Norfolk and Suffolk to serve against the Scots 24 Jun 1301. May also be the John de Shelton pardoned 10 Nov 1303 for the death of a man in consideration for his service in Scotland (the letter patent issued from Dumferline on that date reads �Pardon in consideration of service in Scotland to John de Shelton for the death of Roger le Yongebonde of Shelton�).
