<< AR/17/74, Creation date: [1454?, Sep] (... before Nativity of Blessed
Virgin Mary, 33 [Hen VI]) Depositions of witnesses in law-suit, Arundell vs Arundell: John Arundell senior vs Remfrey Arundell, [esquire]; concerning the manors of Lanhern and Seynt Columbe; mention that John Arundell knight, father of Remfrey Arundell knight, gave..., and that people became tenants of Sir Remfrey. ... Mention of Remfrey's homage done at Chudelegh to '...nd Bisshopp of Exeter that now ys' [= Edmund Lacy, bishop from 1420 until his death 18th Sep 1455]. Endorsed [16th century?] 'Remfry Arundl.', [17th century?] 'Sir John Arundell of Lanhern.' Note: This probably goes with the dispute recorded in AR/17/75-77, though those are all dated 1456; Sir John Arundell gave the manors of Lanherne and St Columb to his son Remfrey [= later Sir Remfrey, father of Remfrey Arundell esquire] on 29th Jul 1429, AR/20/19. >> The first person mentioned is "John Arundell senior" who is living at the time this document is drawn-up obviously since he is one of the parties. John Arundell the father of Renfrey died 7 Jan 1434/5, so can we not say that the John who is a party in this suit is John the son of the John who gave the manors? I do not have a death date for this later John but I show he married Margaret Burghersh and had a son John "abt 1421" (www.thepeerage.com) and in that case would then be called John Senior I suppose. mvernonconnolly...
The above-document would then add the knowledge that he 1) survived his wife Maud and 2) was still living in 1456 mvernonconnolly...
