• Notes

  Thomas was the Knight of the Garter, Baron of Wake and Woodstock. He served under his Stepfather, Edward, Black Prince of Wales in France and distinguished himself in the battle of Castile. Under King Richard II, his half-brother, he was Marshall of England. (C-437, p. 583) The following information on Thomas was provided by Keith Cox via email in the year 2000. "Edmund's father Thomas was the Keeper of the New Forest in which Brockenhurst lays from 1377 till his death in 1397. He was granted the manor of Brockenhurst by the King in 1388, he would of held the manor of Lyndhurst (3 miles to the North of Brockenhurst) as part of his job of keeper of the New Forest. Presumably on the death of John de Foxley who was Keeper of the New Forest, before Thomas Holand, and who also held Brockenhurst on a ten year grant from 1373, Brockenhurst again came under the jurisdiction of the Keeper on the Forest by default, the grant made in1388, allowing the Thomas Holand to take the profits of Brockenhurst manor."
