      BARONY OF FERRERS OF CHARTLEY (CP doesn't give numbers/recognize the title?)

      SIR WILLIAM FERRERS, of Chartley, &c., frequently called LORD FERRERS, son and heir, aged 23 and more at his father's death. The King took his homage and fealty, and he had livery of his father's lands, 9 February 1435/6. On 18 December 1440, he had livery of the manor of Keyston, and obtained that of Bugbrooke, both of which his mother had held in dower.

      He married Elizabeth, daughter of Hamon BEALKNAP, of Seintlynge in St. Mary Cray, Kent, Knell, Sussex, &c., by Joan, younger daughter and, in her issue, coheir of Sir Thomas BOTELER, of Sudeley, co. Gloucester. He died s.p.m., 9 June 1450. His widow's dower was ordered to be assigned, 12 November 1450: on the same day the King took her fealty, and the manors, which she and her husband had held jointly, were liberated to her. In May 1455 she conveyed to feoffes the manors she held for life, in dower or otherwise. She died 28 May 1471. [Complete Peerage V:320-1, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
