Richard SCROPE (Archbishop of York)

Born: 1351, Masham, Yorkshire, England

Died: 8 Jun 1405, Bishopthorpe, West Riding, Yorkshire, England

Notes: Bishop of Lichfield. Archbishop of York. Fourth son of Henry, Baron Scrope of Masham, a cousin of Richard, Baron Scrope of Bolton, was the "Archbishop of York" of Shakespeare's 'Henry IV'. He was educated at Cambridge and, afterwards, in France and Italy. In Rome, he became a distinguished "advocate" in the Papal Court and, up on his return to England, was, for some time, Chancellor of the Kingdom. In 1386, he was raised to the See of Lichfield, whence he was translated to York in 1398. The Archbishop had been indebted to Richard II for all his preferments and joined the Mowbrays, Percys and others of the great Northern Barons who rose in arms against his rival, Henry IV, in 1405. They were led to disband their forces by a stratagem of the Earl of Westmorland. The Archbishop was, however, seized and taken to the King at Pontefract, whence, he was brought to Bishopthorpe and, together with the Earl Marshal, was condemned to death in his own hall by a certain knight named Fulthorpe. Henry IV, who was present, had commanded Chief Justice Gascoigne to pronounce sentence on them; but Gascoigne (himself a Yorkshireman) firmly refused on the plea that the laws gave him no jurisdiction over the life of the prelate. The Archbishop was beheaded, on 8 Jun 1405, in a field between York and Bishopthorpe, protesting that he "never intended evil against the person of King Henry". He was buried in his own cathedral in York, where offerings were long made, at his tomb.

Received many honours from Henry V and created Lord Treasurer in 1410, married Joan, widow of the Duke of York in 1411, when he possibly changed his allegiance. He was charged with being involved in the Earl of Cambridge's plot. He admitted knowledge of it all, but said that he had been gathering evidence for the King and had been about to make a full disclosure. He was executed in a brutal fashion outside the City of Southampton and his head sent north to be placed on a spike over Micklegate Bar in York, and there left to rot, his dismembered body was despatched to various parts of the country. Shakespeare describes him as being 'The Bedfellow of Henry V and had obviously been a trusted confidant. Henry was beside himself with fury at this betrayal.

Notes: Knight of the Garter. First mentioned while accompanying a company of 'The Teutonic Knights' of Prussia against 'The Infidels' of Lithuania. He then moved on to Venice, where he served with the Duke of Duras in the Genoese assault on that city. He served in France with John of Gaunt 1369-73. He was created Seneschal of Aquitaine in 1383 and then Governor of Cherbourg. He committed some crime against the Bishop of Durham. The King ordered him to offer a jewel to the Bishop, which should be of a value of more than £500. He became Vice-Chamberlain of the Royal Household, became King of The Isle of Man (purchased from the Earl of Salisbury by his father). He was granted the Castle town of Marlboro in Wiltshire. He was created Earl of Wiltshire in 1397. In 1398 he became Lord High Treasurer of England. William took a prominent part in repealing the patent granted to the Duke of Hereford, John of Gaunt's son, securing his succession to his fathers titles, money and holdings, should his father die while he was still in exile. The Earl of Wilts, Sir John Bussy, Sir Henry Grene and Sir William Bagot were charged with the defense of the realm when Hereford invaded England in 1399. Shakespeare commented that 'The Earl of Wilts hath the Realm in Farm'. The Earl of Wiltshire, Bussy and Grene took shelter in the city of Bristol, when their adherents deserted them. All three were surrendered by the populace, to the Duke of Hereford, who had them beheaded on the spot, without benefit of a trial. Following Hereford's accession to the throne as Henry IV, he had these sentences confirmed by parliament, they were attainted and all their possessions and titles were forfeit to the crown. In 1398 Ambassador to treat for peace with Robert, King of Scotland, and in 1399 was made Lord Treasurer of England. The following year Richard II appointed him one of the three Guardians of the Realm during the King's absence in Ireland. The Queen Isabel, then only eleven years of age, was placed under his care at Wallingford Castle. After his death, defeated by Henry of Bolingbroke and beheaded without trial, his head was sent in a white basket to London and placed on London Bridge. After the accession of Henry IV, it was delivered to his widow.

Buried: Saint Agatha, Richmond, Yorkshire, England

Notes: 3rd son of Richard, 1° Lord Scrope, was charged with imprisoning the Earl of Warwick on the Isle of Man. In 1401 he accompanied Thomas of Lancaster, the King's son, to Ireland as his deputy. It is said that his wife, having heard the complaints made about him whilst he was Justice of Munster, Leinster and Uriell, his maladministration of justice, 'except that he would make a solemn oath on The Bible, that willingly he would wrong no 'Christian creature' in that land, that truly and duly, see payment made for all expenses. She finally did consent to go with him. Thomas of Lancaster gives him a glowing reference in a letter written from Drogheda on 18 th Feb 1401. Scrope himself wrote at about the same time, asking for the monies owed to him, if not for 'A Grant of The Isle of Man, forfeited by my brother'. He died in Ireland in 1408. Millicent, his widow, married Sir John Fastolph (Falstaff in Shakespeare). Millicent's son Stephen became Fastolph's ward. Fastolph enjoyed Stephen's inheritance for 51 years before he finally died.

Elizabeth SCROPE

Born: ABT 1485

Died: 1544

Notes: Sir John Perche/Pechey/Pechie/Peach/Peachey/Percehay, Kent, who was the first lieutenant of the Gentlemen Pensioners in 1509 and a champion in the lists, bearing a standard of tawny with the crest of a lion’s head crowned with ermine and the words “in everything”. Elizabeth was in the households of both Elizabeth of York and Catalina of Aragon and received a pension from Henry VIII. She provided a refuge at Lullingstone Castle for her cousin, Margaret Scrope, Countess of Suffolk (d. 1515), during Margaret’s final years. After her husband died, leaving her life interest in most of his properties, she settled an annuity on Percival Hart, his nephew, who was to inherit after her death. She later revoked this annuity, after which (c.1535) Hart accused her of wasting his inheritance by selling items he was supposed to inherit. The matter went to arbitration by Lord Cromwell and Elizabeth was obliged to sign a bond to Hart. Childless, in a will made 1 Aug 1541 with a codicil 27 May 1544, she left her sister Agnes plate, pewter, a bed, and other goods and made her co-executor. It was proved 22 Jul 1544. She also left bequests to her other two sisters. Elizabeth left “to my sister Dame Margaret Scrope sometime nun at Barking five pounds sterling”. However, mere mention in a will in no way proves the two women lived together after Barking’s dissolution, and furthermore, Elizabeth’s will must have been written more than a year before it was proved, for according to Court of Augmentations records, Margaret died in 1543. Margaret was also known to have given away one of the books previously in Barking’s library, The Mirror of the Life of Christ, to an Agnes Goldwell, who may have been one of her sister’s servants. There are numerous bequests to friends and servants, as well.

Elizabeth SCROPE

Notes: though James Metcalf had a daughter called Elizabeth she could not have been this person. James Metcalf married relatively late, but it is thought that he made a first marriage to Elizabeth Scrope who brought him property in Sledmere. She was the daughter of Sir John Scrope 5th Baron Scrope according to some theories. Curiously James Metcalf's father was addressed by this Lord Scrope in one document as brother, and this was further evidence for their children being married. At the time if your child was married to someone else's child then you would address the other in-law as brother. A James and Elizabeth Metcalf were married members of the same Guild of Corpus Christi that Sir Robert Constable and Beatrice were members of in about 1490. They were probably the James and Elizabeth Metcalf who were involved in a land sale in 1488, the same landsale that Thomas Metcalfe and Elizabeth his wife was also involved in. James Metcalf had a father called Thomas and mother called Elizabeth who could have been living in 1488. One of Robert and Beatrice Constable's daughters were married to the grandaughter of another member of the Guild, it was obviously a place where people of like social status could meet. It is interesting that in the 'Dorso' of a legal document (Yorkshire Deeds, 8, p 47, YAS RS) dated 26 Mar 1539 one of the people mentioned is Robert Constable of Sledmere, James had a brother called Robert, who unfortunately did not leave a Will. This mention is very curious. More evidence will probably come to light in time. John, Lord Scrope married as his second wife Elizabeth St John. Elizabeth St John was a member of Henry VII's family, descended from his grandmother. She had a daughter Mary who was married to Sir William Conyers in 1479 and it would seem likely that this Elizabeth would be the mother of our Elizabeth.
