Sir Ralph Bigod
« on: Sunday 19 January 25 14:17 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I hope someone can help.
In his book" Yorkshire in the reign of Elizabeth 1 " John Rushton states on p 141, Sir Ralph Bigod gave husbandman Thomas Hardy his long standing tenant of the manor place and 24 oxgangs at Bainton   licence to enclose or dike the desmesne lands in 1531. I am trying to finding out  more about Sir Ralph and his connection  to Bainton but  can't find a connection, other than stated in John Rushdens text. Any ideas ? Thanks.

Sir Ralph Bigod had a second son Ralph, but his heir was his grandson Francis, son of Sir Ralph's elder son John.

Sir Ralph died in 1515. His grandson Francis Bigod had extensive landholdings in the East Riding, including in Settrington, Birdsall, Bainton, Hunmanby, Lockington, Duggleby and Malton.

I think this repeats my post #5 but the legalese easier to read (page 285).

From what I see Sir Ralph bequeathed his holdings (1515 or 6 Hen 8) to his grandson Francis who committed treason and was executed. Later the holdings were restored to Francis' son Ralph?
