AKA: Miles of Hathelsay

Personal Information

  • TITLE: 3rd Baron Stapleton
  • BIRTH: ABT 1319
  • DEATH: ABT JAN 1372/73

Notes

He was escheator and high sheriff of Yorkshire and was summoned as 3rd baron to parliament in 1358. He escorted David Bruce, king of Scotland, from Newcastle to London after the battle of Nevill's Cross and died in 1372. He married Isabel Vavasour and had one son and two daughters, one of whose descendants became claimant to the barony of Stapleton when it terminated with the death of his son, at the age of only 23 years, in 1374. The Carlton lands, which this Thomas Stapleton, 4th baron, had inherited for only two years passed by the tail male to his cousin, a descendant of Gilbert de Stapleton (Foster, Pedigrees; Dictionary of National Biography; Robinson, Carlton Towers, p.10).
