Family/Spouse: Unknown. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

1. John MALLORY

Notes:

Known as Lord of Tachebrook, Mallory, Botley and Peckleton, he was living in 1293. His coat of arms was a lion ramp. Gules, double queed. All of his siblings have the same estimated birth date as him in UA CD-100. (F-511, 599)

Notes:

Living in 1216, he was Lord of Kirkby Mallory, Botley and Walton, Swinford and Bredon. Specifically he is listed as the Lord of Walton in 1246. The first Mallories appeared in the 1100's shortly after the time of William the Conqueror and likely had fought with him. This Richard Mallory was knighted in 1221 according to Mary Reumah Mallory's research.

Richard is the first known Mallory that many current Mallories are believed to descend through. The name has been spelled Malory, Mallorie, Malore, Malri, and Maleure also. The name itself is probably French in derivation meaning something close to "weighed with misfortune" or it could be from the word "maillerie" which is a mill that breaks up hemp in textile manufacturing. The first time the exact spelling Mallory appers in in Leicestershire by 1174. The coat of arms was a gold shield with a red rampant fork-tailed lion.

During King Stephen's reign, this family held lands in Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Warwickshire, Northampton shire, Bedfordshire, Rutland, Camridgeshire, Yorkshire and Cheshire. All of these lands had been sold into other families by 1714. Two of these houses still supposedly contain some Mallory artifacts. (F-511, 512, 635)

Notes:

He was living in 1186 with the title Lord of Tachebrook Mallory, of Warwicks. (F-511) According to Nichols History of the County of Leicester, he was knighted. This might have been in 1216 or the 1216 could have been referring to his death date. Mary Reumah Mallories' notes don't specify which are correct. (F-635)
