HighSheriff of Durham 1518-1522 - wrong William!
CR, Langley 21 (1426): William Eure of Woton,
knight, William Spence, clerk, and William Hoton of Herdwyk... on their
recognizance, have committed to them the custody of the manor and vill
of Estbrandon, ... the manor of Tudhowe ... two parts of the castle of
Brauncepath with the vills of Braucepath ond Stokley ... in the Bishop's
hands by the minority of John son of John son of the late Earl from the
feast of Michaelmas past to the 16th September next.
CR, Langley 22 (1427): Writ of scire facias against
William Eure, William Spence and William Hoton, for debt at the suit of
the Lord Bishop.
CR, Langley 22 (1427): Sir William Bowes of
Stetelam, William Lomley of Bentrove, esquire and William Hoton of
Hunewyk, esquire: recognizance to the Lord Bishop for the payment of a
sum of money by Sir William Eure of Woton, William Spence, clerk, and
William Hoton of Herdwyk.
CR, Neville 2 (1439): Pardon for William Hoton of
Herdwyk for the acquisition from Robert Bruys of the manor and vill of
Heworth by Acle without license. Pardon for grant of the same by him to
Master George Radclyffe, clerk, and William Eure, knight, and for the
grant of the same by the latter to Roger Thornton, esquire, William
Hoton of Hunwyk, John Horsley and Thomas Hoton, chaplain, without
license. License to the parties last named to grant the same to Master
William Blakburne, rector of the church of Stanhope, Master Richard
Witton, clerk, William Raket of Durham, Thomas Thornburgh of Elvet and
John Stapilton, chaplain. It thus seems that the William Hotons of
Herdwyk and Hunwyk are different people. See Surtees, Vol. 3, p. 34
for some more information on the Hotons of Hardwicke.
