  Died	1218
  Notes	"A Chronicle of the Kings of England by Sir Richard Baker, Knight." London, 1660. He succeeded to the barony, and in the sixth year of Richard I. (1196) paid £6-1s-6d for his estates in the County of Somerset as scutage for the King's ransom. He was sheriff of Dorsetshire and Somersetshire in the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth years of King John (1205-1209); which fully proves his importance at that time, when none but persons of the greatest rank and property were admitted to that office. For the first of these years he had under him Osbert, the clerk, his deputy. Being one of the great barons of that reign who stood up for the liberties of their country, and being found (7th John) in arms with the rebellious barons against the King, he was stripped of all his lands in Counties of Somerset and Dorset, which were seized by the King and given to Ralph de Ralegh. He died 18th of King John (1218). He married Isabel, daughter. of ____ and left an only son and heir who succeeded to the estate.
