eleanor the fifth lancaster daughter eleanor and mary sent letters to isabella at amesbury priory in 1334 and in the same year isabella sent gifts for mary s wedding to henry percy future lord percy henry of lancaster s only son and heir henry of grosmont married isabella second daughter of edward ii s kinsman henry lord beaumont in 1330 and in the same year the fifth lancaster daughter eleanor married isabella s brother john future lord beaumont their father s heir henry beaumont fled to the continent and spent much of the period 1329 30 outside england after making his opposition to the regime of queen isabella and roger mortimer known and henry earl of lancaster took beaumont s family under his protection henry of grosmont and his young wife isabella beaumont spent much time with his father sisters and brothers in law over the next few years grosmont was at leicester with his wife isabella his father and his sisters blanche and eleanor in june and september 1330 was with his father at kenilworth in september 1333 and june 1338 and with him again on numerous other occasions the lancaster siblings attended a famous jousting tournament at cheapside in london in september 1331 together and in april 1348 blanche lady wake and her niece elizabeth de burgh b july 1332 maud s only child from her first marriage to william de burgh d june 1333 watched henry of grosmont compete in a tournament at lichfield william sometimes lived in ireland but on other occasions lived with the lancasters he visited a jousting tournament with his brother in law grosmont in february 1328 and was still with the lancasters in june that year 8 as well as being extremely close to their father the lancaster siblings also often visited wrote to and demonstrated their affection for each other in february 1332 henry of grosmont and eleanor of lancaster stayed with their sister blanche wake at deeping in lincolnshire and blanche s husband thomas wake was one of the men who accompanied grosmont to spain in 1343 wake on excellent terms with his father in law henry earl of lancaster for many years and a member of his council visited henry in leicester in july 1339 and gave him one of his manors in yorkshire 9 like henry beaumont thomas wake fled from england in early 1330 after taking part in the conspiracy of the earl of kent his sister margaret s husband and returned in november 1330 his wife blanche spent the period with her father and siblings and attended the weddings of her siblings henry of grosmont and eleanor to the beaumont siblings that year there was a considerable age difference between blanche the eldest lancaster sister and her youngest siblings and she was probably just about old enough to be eleanor and mary s mother despite being practically another generation to her youngest sisters she was remarkably close to them isabella of lancaster the nun of amesbury kept in touch with blanche lady wake by letter and the two eldest siblings seem to have been particularly close in the early 1330s they visited salisbury winchester and king s somborne in hampshire a manor which had belonged to their late mother maud chaworth now held by their father together as well as spending at least half a year in each other s company at amesbury priory eleanor dowager lady beaumont stayed in melton mowbray leicestershire with the fourth sister joan and her husband lord mowbray in september 1343 and in january 1345 visited her father in leicester with her soon to be second husband the earl of arundel shortly before they wed 10 the third sister maud of lancaster visited the papal court at avignon in 1343 and made requests of the pope on behalf of henry earl of lancaster her father and eleanor beaumont her sister 11 henry of grosmont talked in 1344 of his sincere affection for his dearly beloved sister isabella when granting a favour to amesbury priory and when his sister maud was widowed for a second time and left with a baby daughter maud ufford future countess of oxford in 1346 grosmont and his household officials helped her look after her affairs 12 in 1337 grosmont gave his eldest sister blanche and her husband thomas wake one of his manors to pass after their deaths to thomas s foundation of haltemprice priory in yorkshire and in 1361 he appointed blanche as one of the executors of his will a clear sign of his trust in her of his six sisters grosmont seems to have spent the most time with eleanor perhaps because they were married to the siblings isabella and john beaumont and because her second husband the earl of arundel was a close associate of his 13 five of henry of lancaster and maud chaworth s seven children had children of their own the exceptions being the two eldest isabella was a nun and then a prioress and blanche s marriage of more than thirty years to lord wake produced no offspring one thing that strikes me is that in all cases there was a delay of a few years between their wedding and their first pregnancy and not all of the delay can be explained by the girls youth when they married eleanor was born around 1316 18 married her first husband john beaumont in 1330 when they were both about 12 or 13 and had her first child henry beaumont in late 1339 or early 1340 mary was born around 1319 21 married henry percy in 1334 and had her first child henry percy the younger future first earl of northumberland in november 1341 joan married john mowbray in 1328 and gave birth to her only son john mowbray the younger in june 1340 when she was at least twenty five though her two daughters may have been older maud married william de burgh in 1327 and had her first child elizabeth de burgh in july 1332 and isabella beaumont married henry of grosmont in 1330 and their first surviving child maud of lancaster was born in april 1340 though another daughter is mentioned in 1338 39 who must have died in infancy seemingly henry of lancaster encouraged his children and their spouses not to rush into parenthood henry earl of lancaster and leicester died on 22 september 1345 and was outlived by all seven of his children isabella the second sister prioress of amesbury was alive on 30 january 1348 but died before 4 february 1349 14 joan the fourth sister lady mowbray died on 7 july 1348 7 july 1349 or 7 july 1350 in early 1348 john mowbray and joan his wife johane sa femme presented a petition to edward iii so she was obviously still alive then but by early march 1351 her widower john mowbray had married his much younger second wife elizabeth daughter of john de vere earl of oxford b 1312 joan of lancaster definitely died on 7 july the feast of the translation of st thomas becket the date is given in the sarum missal translacio sancti thome martyris obitus domine iohanne domine de moubray filie comitis lancastriae but no year is provided 15 henry of grosmont duke of lancaster and earl of leicester lincoln and derby was the third of the lancaster siblings to pass away dying in his town of leicester on 23 march 1361 among other sources which confirm henry s exact date of death the 23rd of march is also recorded in the sarum missal the youngest sibling mary lady percy died eighteen months later on 1 september 1362 just six days before edward iii s sister joan of the tower queen of scotland also died eleanor countess of arundel and lady beaumont died on 11 january 1372 and maud dowager countess of ulster and lady ufford on 5 may 1377 a few weeks before her kinsman edward iii blanche lady wake eldest of the siblings was the last of them to die and finally passed away between 3 and 11 july 1380 when she must have been at least 75 and perhaps closer to 80 her heir by blood was her brother henry s namesake grandson henry of lancaster earl of derby b 1367 who became henry iv in 1399 and the heir to the dower lands she held from her long dead husband thomas wake was thomas s niece joan of kent dowager princess of wales richard ii s mother sources

later centuries when the monarch spent most of the year in and around london and went on progresses in the summer when the city got too hot and stinky the fourteenth century english kings spent their reigns on a never ending circuit around the south and midlands of england all year round even in winter they tended not to go farther west than bristol or farther north than nottingham and only rarely did they go to the north of england to be fair the north was pretty empty in the middle ages with york the only settlement of any size edward ii rarely spent more than a handful of days in one place and when he did it was usually westminster windsor the royal hunting lodge of clipstone in nottinghamshire in the first half of his reign the royal palace of clarendon near salisbury in the second half of his reign york or his favourite residence of kings langley in hertfordshire because of the ongoing war against scotland edward spent more time in the north of england than many other medieval kings and unusually visited the area around newcastle upon tyne on occasion i ve taken a couple of months from edward s reign to illustrate the frequent travelling and have calculated the distances he and his enormous household must have ridden or rather in many cases trudged his household was somewhere in the region of 500 people queen isabella s was around 200 and the king was never alone but always accompanied by a number of earls bishops and barons each of whom had their own sizeable retinues we re talking about several thousand people plus a few hundred horses either being ridden pulling carts or carrying loads the logistics of it all are almost unfathomable just imagine being in charge of finding accommodation and food for all those people and animals october 1317 1 october edward had spent the night of 30 september to 1 october at monk bretton in yorkshire just outside barnsley he travelled sixteen miles to doncaster where he spent two nights 3 october eight miles from doncaster to tickhill 4 october twelve miles from tickhill to retford 5 october thirteen miles from retford to sutton on trent 6 october nine miles from sutton on trent to newark 7 october fifteen miles from newark to grantham where edward spent two nights 9 october twenty two miles from grantham to stamford 10 october eleven miles from stamford to fotheringhay 11 october sixteen miles from fotheringhay to molesworth 12 october sixteen miles from molesworth to st neots 13 october twenty miles from st neots to baldock 14 october eighteen miles from baldock to ware 15 october eleven miles from ware to waltham 16 october sixteen miles from waltham to westminster edward then spent the second half of october 1317 and until 5 november at westminster i make this a total of 203 miles that he travelled in just sixteen days with only two occasions when he spent more than one night in a location doncaster and grantham may 1326 on 1 and 2 may 1326 edward was at hailes abbey in gloucestershire which had been founded eighty years earlier by his great uncle richard of cornwall henry iii s brother 3 may twenty miles from hailes to barnsley the one in gloucestershire not the one in yorkshire mentioned above 4 may fourteen miles from barnsley to purton in wiltshire 5 may seventeen miles from purton to marlborough 6 and 7 may edward stayed in marlborough 8 may twenty seven miles from marlborough to cirencester 9 may eighteen miles from cirencester to gloucester 10 to 13 may edward stayed in gloucester 14 may nine miles from gloucester to coberley 15 may seventeen miles from coberley to down ampney 16 may twenty miles from down ampney to ogbourne st george 17 may four miles from ogbourne st george to marlborough again 18 19 may edward stayed in marlborough 20 may twenty five miles from marlborough to crookham 21 may sixteen miles from crookham to caversham 22 may fourteen miles from caversham to bisham 23 may twenty five miles from bisham to sheen 24 may edward stayed at sheen 25 may twenty eight miles from sheen to otford 26 may eighteen miles from otford to maidstone 27 may fourteen miles to charing the one in kent not charing cross in london 28 may twelve miles from charing to chartham 29 may eight miles from chartham to bishopsbourne 30 may fourteen miles from bishopsbourne to saltwood 31 may 1 to 6 june 1326 edward stayed at saltwood that s a remarkable 320 miles travelled in just one month and sojourns in several counties from gloucestershire in the southwest all the way over to kent in the southeast the longest daily journey was twenty eight miles edward ii s bodyguard of archers were not on horseback but ran alongside him on his horse we know this from an entry in edward s chamber account of 12 june 1326 when he bought his archers new hose made of linen and mentioned that it was a reward for running next to him in the hot weather can you imagine running twenty eight miles in one day that s longer than a marathon and the next day the archers had to run eighteen miles there were another five occasions in that one month of may 1326 when the...
