A HISTORY OF DEVONSHIRE 



and heiress Juliana^ married (i) Fulk Paynel, a grandson of Ralf Paynel the 

 Conqueror's companion,* by whom she had three sons, William,* Fulk, and 

 Hasculf Paynel,* and (2) Warin de la Haule or de Aula.' Juliana's first 

 husband had seisin of the honour of Bampton in 1164, but in 1166 Warin 

 de Aula was in possession.' In 1180 Fulk Paynel her son'' accounted for 

 1,000 marks for a fine of the honour of Bampton,* but six years later he was 

 put out of possession for being in arrear. ' After the honour had been held 

 for a time by Hugh Bard ^° and William Briwere " Fulk Paynel recovered it 

 in 1199,^* and died in 1216,^* leaving a son called William and a daughter 

 Christina, the wife of Miles Cogan.^* Through this daughter it, in 1274, 

 passed to the Cogan family.^' 



The honour continued in the Cogan family till the 21st year of 

 Richard II, first in the person of John Cogan the younger, who died in 1301 ; 

 then of his son Thomas, who died before 1 3 1 5 ; next of his grandson Sir 

 Richard Cogan, who came of age in 1327 and died in 1367, and finally of 

 his great grandson Sir William Cogan. On Sir William Cogan's death in 

 1382, without issue," it came to his sister Elizabeth, wife of Sir Fulk Fitz- 

 warren," whose daughter Elizabeth, after her brother Fulk's death without 

 issue in 1408," brought it to Richard Hankford," whose daughter Catherine, 

 after the death of Richard Hankford the younger in 1431,*" carried it to 

 William Bourchier Lord Fitzwarren.*^ From him it passed to his son Fulk, 

 Lord Fitzwarren, father of John Bourchier, earl of Bath, and thus was united 

 with the earldom of Bath. 



The other portion of Walter de Dowai's Devonshire estates went to the 

 Somersetshire honour of Marshwood apparently by gift of Henry I to Geoffrey 

 de Mandevil,'* possibly uncle of the earl of Essex.*** On Geoffrey's death in 

 1 144 it passed to his younger son Ralf, and with Ralfs daughter Dionisia***
