Sir John De Lingen

• General Notes
  • Sir John de Lingon, son of Sir John de Lingen, had a grant of free warren in Lingen from Henry III, dated December, 1256. The royalty of fishing and fowling in the King's manor of Marden was also granted to him. He lived during the insurrection of Llewellyn, Prince of Cymru, and appears to have been one of the commissioners, with Roger de Mortimer and the Earl of Glouchester, appointed to settle terms with the discontented Welsh, for the injuries done to Prince Edward. In 1260 he was witness to a grant from Walter de Clifford, Lord of Corfham to Sir John de Haleton, of six acres of his "hog" at Cleobury, to be measured by the royal perch, and with license to dig coals within the forest of La Clie to sell or give away - this being one of the first records of coal in Shropshire. Sir John de Lingen fought with the Mortimers against Simon de Montfort at Evesham. [Shull, Burdsall, Stockton p382]
