LANDOWNERS IN CORNWALL, 1165. 159 



6. Richard Fitz- William holds 5 Knights' fees. 



There were two Fitz- Williams, probably brothers, in the 

 reign of Henry II, one of whom has been mentioned previously 

 as holding 71 knights' fees ; this Richard held what was, 

 probably, a younger brother's fortune — 5 fees. John Fitz- 

 William, who, in 1301, held of R d de Stapeldon in Ammel the 

 ninth part of a fee worth 60 s , was probably a descendant of 

 Richard Fitz- William, and resided at Hall, in Lanteglos-by- 

 Fowey. His daughter and heir, Elizabeth, was married to Sir 

 Reginald Mohun. The Mohuns inherited from the Fitz- William 

 family, the manors of Tolcarne and Bodinnick, also the barton 

 of Hall. 



7. Gralanus holds seven Knights' fees. 



No person of this name can be found ; but in the Scutage 

 roll, about 35 years later, Alanus Blundus (Bloyou) is stated to 

 hold the same number of fees, and he may have been the 

 immediate successor of Gralanus or Alanus. 



The family of Bloyou was descended from Blohinus, who 

 held five manors in Cornwall at the time of the Domesday 

 Survey, viz : — Deliau or Deliomur, in St. Teath ; Duvenayit now 

 Dannand, also in St Teath ; Treuthal now Truthal, in Sithney ; 

 Treveheret now Trehudreth, in Blisland ; and Trefroic, now 

 Trefreake, in St. Endellion. In 5th Stephen (1140) we find 

 that Richard, son of Bloihou paid a fine in Cornwall. (Great 

 Roll of the Pipe). 



This family became extinct early in the 14th century, for 

 when Sir Ralph Bloyou, Knight, died s.p., his sisters, Elizabeth 

 and Johannah, became his heirs ; Elizabeth married first, Sir 

 Stephen de Tinten, by whom she had a daughter Alice, who 

 became the wife of Sir Walter Carminow ; and secondly she 

 took to be her husband Ralph Beaupre. It is not known to 

 whom Johannah was married, but she had a daughter Margery, 

 whose son, Simon Berkle, espoused Margery, daughter of Sir 

 Oliver Carminow. 



In the 'Introduction to the Year-Book,' 30 Edward I, 

 (1302) the following notice occurs : — " The Bloyho family seem 

 to have been very turbulent. Sir Ralph Bloyou was concerned
