had been licensed, 3 March, 1339-40, to marry at her pleasure 

 (Close Boll). On 20 June, 1346, there is a licence for William 

 de Burton and Elizabeth, his wife, to enfeoff Nichohis de hx Croice 

 and another of the manors of Hertrigge, &c., co. Jierks, and for 

 them to re-grant the said manors to William and Elizabeth in tail, 

 with remainder to Thomas, son of William, and Margaret, liis wife, 

 daughter of the said Elizabeth, in tail, with remainder to Elizabeth's 

 right heirs (Patent Boll). Tlie marriage of Tliomas de Hiirton and 

 Margaret Percy is not given in Blore's pedigree of" Burton." Tlio 

 bride probably died young. The groom was born in or about 1335. 

 Bresuniably the licence was not acted upon, for 28 October, 1351, 

 there is a licence for William de Burton and Elizabeth, his wife, 

 to enfeoff Rowland Daneys and others of the manors of Hertru<^g, 

 &c., and for Daneys to re-grant them to the said William and his 

 heirs: — thus barring Elizabeth and her issue, or other heirs {P"t. 

 Boll). 



The last of these transactions relating to Herbrugg appears on 

 the dorse of the Close KoU for 1352. There is first a release dated 

 at Little Chastirton, co. Eutland, Wednesday after St. Valentine,

 of John de Hertrugge," to Rowland Daneys and others of all her 

 right in the manors of Hertrugg, Tidecoumbe, and Haselwyk, Sc(j., 

 CO. Berks; which deed she acknowledged in the Chancery on L'G 

 February; secondly there is a release of even date, made at London, 

 by Sir William de Burton, knight, to "Elizabeth, daughter of John
