22 Anniversary Address. 



her husband, and married Peter de Malolacu ; her eldest son 

 was John Lord D'Arcy, ob. inf. eet. 1362, S. P. 



Philip, his brother and heir, succeeded him, and sat in par- 

 liament from 1377 to 1397— ob. 1398. 



John D'Arcy, his son and heir, sat in parliament from 1399 

 to 1411 — ob. then 



Philip Lord D'Arcy, son and heir, ob. inf. set. 1418, S. P. 

 M. leaving two children, viz. — Elizabeth, who married Sir 

 James Strangeways, and Margery who became the wife of Sir 

 John Conyers, between whose descendants the Baronies of 

 D'Arcy, and Meinil are now in abeyance. 



In 1460, I find the " Castrum de Beleford" as belonging 

 to Dni de D'Arcy. 



I find in 20 Ed. 4th, 1461, that Thomas de Ilderton and 

 Thomas Grey were seized of the Manor of Belford, but 

 that could only have been as Trustees ; for the D'Arcy and 

 Lilburn family were certainly the real owners at the time, 

 and for long subsequent thereto. 



Sir John Conyers, by Margery D'Arcy, his wife, had Sir 

 John Conyers, K.G., his eldest son and heir; to him suc- 

 ceeded William Conyers, his son and heir, 1506 — d., 1524. 

 Christopher Conyers, his son and heir, 1524 — ob., 1538. 

 John Conyers, his son and heir, 1538 — ob., 1557, S.P.M. 

 His daughters were his heirs, but in 1640 all their issue had 

 failed excepting Elizabeth, the eldest daughter, who married 

 Thomas Lord D'Arcy, and so in the Feodary's Book it is 

 recorded under date, 10 Elizabeth, 1568, that the heirs of 

 Lord Conyers were seized of half of the Ville, of Belford and 

 Easington. 



Conyers D'Arcy, the son of this Elizabeth, became Baron 

 Conyers, Jure Matris, and one of the co-heirs of the Barony 

 of D'Arcy and Meinil, from whom the Duke of Leeds is 

 descended, and is the successor to those Ancient Honors. 



I do not find how this moiety of Belford afterwards passed 

 away from the D'Arcy family, but it must have been soon 

 after this period. 



The other moiety which formerly belonged to Walter de 

 Huntercombe came to
