Notes for Simon III Basset
_______________

Carol Mc Donald, in her treatise “Basset of Sapcote and Calendar Rolls” received on Wednesday 1st February 2012, states, p. 6 that he was son and heir of Ralph I Basset and his wife Elizabeth Colville.  She also states that his second wife was Elizabeth Colville and they were the parents of Ralph II Basset [1st lord Basset of Sapcote].

On April 11th she issued an update to this giving firm evidence that he was the father of Ralph (III), first lord, c. 1315-1378:

“[CIM V2 1307-1349] No 1027. 25 August 1328 Blyth.  Writ to Simon de Bereford, escheator south of Trent.  Inquisition – Stanton, held Monday before the Exaltation of the Holy Cross.  Alexander, parson of the church of Stanton, on Thursday after St Thomas the Apostle 14EII [21 December 1320] by his charter made at Sapecote, granted the manor of Stanton by Sapecote to Simon Basset of Sapecote and Isabel his wife and heirs of the said Simon.  The said Simon and Isabel continued their joint seisin of the said manor until the death of the said Simon.  The manor is held of Alexander de Frevill and Joan his wife as belonging to their manor of Tameworth, by the service of a third part of a knight's fee and suit to the court of Tameworth every three weeks and is of the yearly value of 10/ 4s 8d.  Ralph Basset, son of the said Simon, is his next heir and is of the age of 13 years and more.”
