 William de Braose,* bestowed the entire honour in 12 13,* all but the borough 

 of Barnstaple and 1 5 of Braose's fees, which he had given to Peter son of 

 Herbert/ To Henry de Tracy succeeded his son of like name,^ who married 

 Maud, daughter of Reginald de Braose, and died in 1273,* when his grand- 

 daughter, Maud, daughter of Eva de Tracy, by her husband, Guy de 

 Bryane, was found to be his next heir.'' This Maud was twice married, 

 first to Nicholas Martin, the younger son of Nicholas Martin, lord of 

 Dartington, and secondly, to Geoffrey de Camvil. In right of Maud, 

 Geoffrey de Camvil held the honour in 1285 by the courtesy of England,* and 

 was succeeded by Maud's son and heir, William Martin.® On the death of 

 William Martin in 1325,^" and of his son, Nicholas, two years later," the 

 honour came to his sister Joan, wife of James, Lord Audley, in whose family 

 it continued until the fifteenth year of Richard II. On the death of 

 Nicholas, Lord Audley, in 1392,^^ it reverted to the crown.
