DNB* Fitzgerald, Maurice (c.1194-1257), justiciar of Ireland, was the son of Gerald fitz Maurice Fitzgerald (d. 1204), who obtained half of the cantred of Offelan, centred on Maynooth and Rathmore, from his brother William (d. c.1199) before 1189, owned land at Croom in Limerick and Imokilly in Cork, and before 1189 held Offaly as its first lord with centres at Lea and Geashill. Gerald fitz Maurice acquired Offaly through his marriage to Eva, daughter of the first grantee of the area, Robert of Bermingham, and Maurice Fitzgerald was the child of this marriage, which took place in or shortly before 1193. On his father's death in 1204 Maurice was a minor of about nine years of age. He and his lands were placed in the wardship of William (I) Marshal, who in 1207–8 successfully resisted King John's attempts to take them from him. Maurice came of age in 1215 and in the following year his Irish lands, with the exception of those in Offaly, were delivered to him. On Gerald fitz Maurice's death his widow had married Geoffrey fitz Robert and then, after 1211, Geoffrey de Marisco with whom she had several children. The lands in Offaly were Eva's inheritance and they went with her to Marisco, who was entitled to hold them for his life, even after Eva died about 1225.

In 1234 Marisco lost his Irish lands for supporting Richard Marshal, who was mortally wounded on the Curragh on 1 April that year. Fitzgerald had been appointed justiciar in 1232, replacing Richard de Burgh, who shared temporarily in the downfall in that year of his uncle Hubert de Burgh. He led the force which confronted Richard Marshal on the Curragh and was subsequently rewarded by regaining Lea and Geashill from Marisco. It was recorded in the local chronicle that Richard was murdered ‘by the Geraldines, holding the place and taking the part of the king’ (Annals of Ireland, ed. Butler, 7). Fitzgerald was summoned to England after Marshal's death but no action was taken against him. In the following year, however, his messenger, Henry Clement, was murdered by William de Marisco who had been with Marshal on the Curragh. Fitzgerald suspected the involvement of Richard's brother and successor, Gilbert Marshal (d. 1241), and relations between the two men were cool.

The conquest of Connacht in 1235 provided the opportunity to heal the rifts among the English magnates in Ireland caused by the murder of Marshal. In that year the settlers gathered under Fitzgerald to make good Richard de Burgh's claim to the province. From Athlone they travelled north to Boyle in Roscommon, but failed to encounter Fedlimid Ó Conchobhair, who soon fled to Ó Domnaill for protection. The invaders then attacked the islands of Clew Bay before besieging and capturing temporarily the island of Lough Cé, which belonged to the Mac Diarmada family. Fedlimid came to terms and agreed to hold the king's five cantreds in Connacht as a tenant of the crown, but in 1236 Fitzgerald banished him and replaced him with a rival. Fedlimid soon returned to contest the situation and with the support of Richard de Burgh eventually re-established his position in 1237.

In 1235 Richard de Burgh granted Sligo to Hugh de Lacy. He in turn granted a large part of this, namely Carbury and the northern half of the barony of Leyny, to Fitzgerald who acquired the other half of Leyny from Jordan d'Exeter, another of de Burgh's grantees. In 1238 Fitzgerald and Hugh de Lacy ousted Domnall Mac Lochlainn, king of Cenél nÉogain and as a reward Lacy granted Fitzgerald his claims as earl of Ulster on Tír Conaill and Fermanagh. In 1239 Fitzgerald plundered Carbury, which at this period was subject to Ó Domnaill. In 1242 he entered Tír Conaill with Fedlimid Ó Conchobhair and took the submission of the local families. Thereafter he built castles at Banada and Ardcree in Leyny and in 1245 built the castle of Sligo, again with the assistance of Fedlimid. In 1253 he founded a Dominican friary in the town. After losing the justiciarship in 1245 he continued to raid into Tír Conaill, taking hostages and setting up kings. In 1252 he built the castle of Caol Uisce, which was destroyed by Ó Domnaill in 1257. Sligo was burnt at the same time. This effectively saw the end of the English thrust into the north-west.

Fitzgerald gained land elsewhere in Connacht after 1235. Richard de Burgh granted him land in the baronies of Dunkellin and Kiltartan in Galway and he established manorial centres at Ardrahan and Kilcolgan. The territory had previously belonged to the family of Ó hÉidhin and they were allowed to retain some of their former land as Fitzgerald's tenants. In Mayo, Fitzgerald received land in the barony of Kilmaine from Gerald de la Roche and Raymond fitz Griffin. Here he established the manor of Lough Mask where he also built a castle.

Henry III had confidence in Fitzgerald's ability, as justiciar, to raise money for his enterprises. In 1240 the king ordered him to prepare for a royal visit to Ireland which was subsequently cancelled, and in 1242–3 he complied with Henry's demands for men, money, and supplies from Ireland for his French campaign. In 1245 Fitzgerald was entrusted with the task of organizing a force from Ireland for Henry III's campaign against Dafydd ap Llywelyn in Wales. He gathered upwards of 3000 men, including Fedlimid Ó Conchobhair and many other Irish. This force arrived at Gannock (Deganwy) late in October, by which time the king was preparing to return home and the force from Ireland ravaged the island of Anglesey. Fitzgerald's punishment for arriving late was to be replaced as justiciar by John fitz Geoffrey in 1245. He was not disgraced, however, and in August 1248 was in Gascony at the king's bidding. In 1249 he and fitz Geoffrey punished Áed, son of Fedlimid, for an attack on the Berminghams and replaced Fedlimid with a rival Ó Conchobhair. Fitzgerald had founded a Franciscan friary at Youghal, Cork, in 1224 or 1231 and he died there, in the habit of a Franciscan, in 1257.

Nothing is known of Fitzgerald's wife except her first name, Juliana. Their eldest son was Gerald fitz Maurice Fitzgerald, who died in Poitou in 1242/3. He in turn had a son, Maurice Fitzgerald (d. 1268), who succeeded his grandfather as third lord of Offaly upon reaching his majority, some time before 1262. He was drowned in 1268 while crossing from England. Gerald fitz Maurice Fitzgerald also had a daughter, Juliana, who married John de Cogan. The second son of Maurice Fitzgerald and Juliana was Maurice fitz Maurice Fitzgerald (d. 1286). He acquired the Tír Conaill, Fermanagh, and Connacht lands by feoffment from his father and served as justiciar in 1272–3. About 1258 he married Matilda (Maud), the widow of Maurice de Rochford and daughter of Gerald de Prendergast. The third son of Maurice Fitzgerald and Juliana, Thomas fitz Maurice Fitzgerald, was given Banada in Leyny, Sligo, by his brother Maurice. He was the father of the first earl of Kildare, John fitz Thomas Fitzgerald and he died at Lough Mask in 1271.

DNB* Talbot, Gilbert, first Lord Talbot (1276-1346), landowner, was the eldest son and heir of Richard Talbot, a knight of Herefordshire and Gloucestershire, and Sarah, the daughter of William de Beauchamp of Elmley, Worcestershire, and the sister of William de Beauchamp, earl of Warwick (d. 1298). Talbot, born on 18 October 1276, inherited property in Herefordshire and Gloucestershire on his father's death in 1306. His younger brother, Richard, became lord of Richards Castle and another brother, Thomas, became a priest. Talbot served against Edward I in Scotland in 1293 and on local commissions in Gloucestershire before 1312.

Talbot came to prominence during and after the contrariants' uprising against Edward II. He received a pardon in 1312 for the death of Gaveston, and may have been implicated in the execution either through his kinship with Guy de Beauchamp, earl of Warwick, whose first cousin he was, or through his association with Thomas, earl of Lancaster. The Talbots held a manor in Lydney, Gloucestershire, of the earls of Warwick and a manor in Longhope, Gloucestershire, of the earls of Lancaster. Gilbert Talbot received an annual rent of £40 for life from Thomas of Lancaster. His connection to Lancaster may explain his participation in the 1321–2 rebellion, although he was also called an adherent of Roger Mortimer. With his son Richard Talbot he was among those accused of burning Bridgnorth in January 1322 and father and son were both captured at the battle of Boroughbridge on 16 March, Gilbert styled ‘banneret’ and Richard ‘bachelor’. Talbot's lands were plundered, with losses of more than £60 from one estate at Credenhill, before they were taken into royal custody in December 1321.

Talbot, however, recovered quickly. Promising in July 1322 to pay a fine of £2000 and one tun of wine worth 40s. a year for life, he was released from prison and he retrieved his property. That October Edward commissioned him to arrest malefactors in Gloucestershire and on 1 November gave him custody of the castle and town of Gloucester. As another condition of his pardon Talbot served in Gascony in 1324–5. Described as one of Prince Edward's counsellors, he attended Edward's homage to the French king, Charles, on 24 September 1325, the first indication of a bond that lasted for the rest of Talbot's life.

Talbot returned to England with Edward, Mortimer, and Isabella to overthrow Edward II and so, at the age of fifty, stepped onto the stage of national politics. In August 1327 he was appointed chamberlain, the first since Hugh Despenser the younger fell from power, and accompanied Edward III to France to perform homage again in 1329. Four days after Mortimer's fall on 19 October 1330 Edward appointed Talbot justice of south Wales and renewed the grant for life in 1339. He became justiciar in the bishopric of St David's in October 1332, and stayed on as chamberlain until 1334. Edward assigned Talbot custody of Builth Castle in 1330, the castles of Blaenllyfni and Bwlchydinas for life in 1333, and Carmarthen Castle in 1340. His military career included serving in Scotland (1333–5), raising Welsh forces to fight in Scotland (1335–7), preparing for threatened French invasions (1337, 1345), and arraying troops in Herefordshire (1339).

Talbot had been sent as a county knight to a great council in 1324 and had been summoned to two councils in 1330, but he received his first summons to parliament in 1332, becoming Lord Talbot. He was a frequent witness to royal charters, received fees and robes as a knight of the royal household, and gained various other favours including several wardships. Edward gave him permission to alienate lands in mortmain to the family priory at Wormley, Herefordshire. Talbot was one of the trailbaston justices inquiring into official misconduct and local disorder in 1341, and served on other commissions until his death on 20 February 1346 at Eccleswall, when he was nearly seventy years old.

Marriage* Principal=Amabilia (?)1 
Death*after 1273 1 
Deathbefore 26 June 1278 His wid. Amabilia nominates Nicholas Comyn and others as her attorneys in Ireland4 
DNB* Comyn, John [called Red Comyn], lord of Badenoch (d. c.1277), magnate, was the son of Richard Comyn (d. 1244×9), and was also nephew (and heir) to Walter Comyn, earl of Menteith (d. 1258), and nephew to Alexander Comyn, earl of Buchan (d. 1289). John had two brothers, William and Richard. He was twice married, his first wife being Eva, his second Alicia (probably de Lindsay, of Lamberton).

John Comyn had inherited important lands in Tynedale in Northumberland and in southern Scotland (in Dumfriesshire, Roxburghshire, and Peeblesshire) by c.1250, and the lordships of Badenoch and Lochaber in northern Scotland after 1258. The Tynedale and southern Scottish lands had been acquired by John's great-grandfather Richard (d. 1178), who founded the family's secular fortunes through favour with the Scottish royal family. Richard's son, William, extended the family's landed acquisitions northwards through the lordships of Lenzie and Kirkintilloch (c.1200), the earldom of Buchan (c.1212), and the lordship of Badenoch (c.1229) for his son Walter (the future earl of Menteith). William had two wives and two large families. The earldom of Buchan, which he acquired through marriage to his second wife, Countess Marjory, was inherited by Alexander, the eldest son of this marriage. The Tynedale and southern Scottish lands, with the Badenoch lordship, descended to John Comyn through Walter Comyn, the eldest surviving son of William Comyn's first marriage. After Walter's death in 1258, John gained the headship of the senior, Badenoch, branch of the family and became the first Red Comyn. This sobriquet, derived from the heraldic colour of the Badenoch branch of the family, was handed down to his successors as head of the senior branch, to his son John Comyn, known as the Competitor (d. c.1302), and to his grandson, another John Comyn (d. 1306). Comyn failed, however, to inherit the earldom of Menteith after first accusing the countess and her new husband, Sir John Russell, of poisoning Earl Walter in 1258, and then forcing them to resign the earldom. The compromise decision reached by the king and a Comyn-dominated council in 1260–61 was to give the earldom to Walter Stewart (d. c.1296).

John Comyn had been a regular member of a Comyn ‘party’ under the leadership of Walter Comyn, earl of Menteith, his uncle, in the politically disturbed years 1242–58, when the power of the Comyns in the north was threatened by the Bisset and Durward families, and their political dominance of the aristocratic community was threatened by Alexander II's appointment of Alan Durward as justiciar of Scotia c.1244. John Comyn personally participated in the hounding of the Bissets in 1242 and with other members of the Comyn following made a bond of good behaviour in 1244. The death of Alexander II in 1249 and the minority of Alexander III (r. 1249–86) intensified the rivalry between the Comyns under Earl Walter and their opponents, especially Alan Durward, for political leadership in Scotland. When the Comyns regained control of Scottish government, with English help, in 1251, John Comyn was part of this government. When they lost this leadership in 1255, John Comyn participated in the kidnapping of the young Alexander III and his queen during the successful counter-coup of 1257, and was named as justiciar of Galloway in the Comyn-led confederation of nobles which made a treaty with the Welsh princes in 1258.

The decision to curb John Comyn's power in 1260–61, by not allowing him to succeed to the earldom of Menteith, was an acknowledgement by the magnates, including fellow Comyns, that John's reputation for bellicose behaviour was substantially true. Fordun regarded him as ‘a man prone to robbery and rashness’ (Chronica gentis Scottorum, 2.293). The setback of 1260–61 probably explains why John Comyn appeared irregularly in the royal circle during the 1260s. Instead he sought advancement and adventure in England. He was in the English royal household in 1262, 1264, and 1265, and fought for Henry III at the battle of Lewes in 1264, where he was captured. The English records from 1260 to 1275 testify to the rich rewards available. Comyn received a confirmation of his important Tynedale lands in 1262 and permission to fortify his Northumberland manor house at Tarset in 1267. He was given numerous privileges in the royal forests, a yearly fee of £50, and in 1266 was promised (though never received) 300 librates of land ‘for his faithful service’ (CPR, 1258–66, 551).

Comyn's military expertise featured further in Scottish record. In 1269 he upset the earl of Atholl by building a castle at Blair in Atholl. The matter was settled by the king and his council. It seems that two great castles of Badenoch and Lochaber, namely Lochindorb and Inverlochy—with Ruthven a possible third—were also founded by John Comyn and that, with Blair, they formed part of a strategic castle building plan in the north. Comyn featured prominently as justiciar of Galloway in a royal expedition against Man in 1275.

John Comyn, who was a benefactor to Melrose Abbey and to the churches at Durham and Glasgow, died c.1277. He left five sons: John the Competitor, who married Eleanor (Marjory), sister of John de Balliol, the future king of Scots; William, lord of Kirkintilloch; Alexander; another John (d. c.1295); and Robert (d. 1306). According to Andrew Wyntoun, he had four daughters (the Scots peerage mentions a fifth), who married Richard Siward, Geoffrey Mowbray, Alexander of Argyll, and Andrew Murray, father of the Andrew Murray who died in 1297.
