I originally had only one Henry Biset (of Kidderminster, Worcs), but Phil Moody, citing 
original charters, has two Henry Bisets, one as son of William "the Carpenter" Biset, 
and the other Henry as son of William's younger brother, Manasser Biset. According to 
Phil Moody, each Henry had children according to the way that I have it portrayed.

---------------------

Manor of East-Bridgford-on-the-Hill, Nottinghamshire:

William Carpentar, by the consent of Henry Biset, his Son, and of Manasser Biset, his 
own Brother, and of Ernulphus Biset, his Nephew, gave his Mill on Doverbek, called 
Clive-Milne, to the Priory of Thurgarton, for the Souls of William Biset his Father, and 
Howisa his Mother, and Susanna his Wife, and Henry Biset, and Ausoldus his 
Brothers, and Henry his Nephew, and all his Ancestors, so that the said Mill should be 
towards the building of the new Church; and when that should be finished, to be 
expended amongst the Friars, reserving to himself and his Heirs, the multure of the 
Corn of his Demesne, when he would grind there. With this he gave himself Living if 
he pleased; or if he died in England, there to be buried. Henry Biset, Son of William 
Carpentar, confirmed his Father's Gift of that Mill, with a Bovat of Land in Ludham, 
and a Toft, lying by the said Clive-Milne, and likewise gave to the Priory, the Passage 
of Briggeford, with a Toft belonging to it, (which is now known by the Name of 
Botemans Leyes, and still belongs to the Ferry) with William the Miller, for the Souls of 
his said Father, and of his Mother, and of Albreda his Wife, reserving to himself and 
his Heirs, and his Servants, the free Fishing.

The Abbat of Roucestre, 27 H 3. claimed against Albreda de Basingburne eight 
Carucats, and two Bovats of Land, with the Appurtenances in Briggeford, whereof 
every Carucat contained eight Bovats of Land measured, whereof Thurstan, his 
Predecessor, Abbat of Roucestre, in the Time of King Henry the Second, was seized 
in right of his said Church. Albreda came and answered, that neither she, nor her 
Ancestors, ever defended this Manor but by four Carucats, as in Tallages, Aids, 
Customs, and Services, and called to warrant Margery, Ela, and Isabella, the 
Daughters and Heirs of John Biset. Margery was then of full Age, Ela, and Isabella, 
under Age, and in the Custody of John de Plesseto: they were then summoned in the 
County of Southampton.

Warinus de Basingburne paid two Marks for one Knight's Fee here in the Time of 
Henry the Third. Albreda de Basingburne, held a Knight's Fee here, by reason of the 
Custody of the Land and Heir of John Biset, granted by the King. Albreda had Issue 
Constancia, and she Isabel and Agnes: Isabell was Mother of Thomas de Multon, of 
Kirketon, and Agnes of Philip de Caltoft, between whom, 9 E. 3. the Land was divided. 
The said Thomas and Philip, 3 E. 3. claimed Court-Leet, Tumbrel, and Pillory here, and 
Philip a Market on Tuesday, and two Fairs granted, 1 E. 3. to the said Philip de 
Caltoft.

[NOTE: Rosie Bevan of SGM, and DNB, both state that Beatrix (mentioned next as 
cousin) was the eldest sister of Isabel and Agnes mentioned above. Also Thoroton's 
family tree shows a sister of Constancia named Albreda who m. William le Grant 
(Grand/Graunt), who presumably died without issue, as she is not mentioned in the 
text.]

Roger le Brabazon held the Manor of Est-Briggeford, one Moiety of the Inheritance of 
Beatrix his Wife, to them and the Heirs of their Bodies; the other Moiety for Term of his 
Life, of the Grant of John de Caltoft, and Agnes his Wife; and John de Multon, and 
Isabell his Wife, as the Inheritance of them the said Agnes and Isabell Roger and 
Beatrix died without Heirs of their Bodies, and so the Reversion of their Moiety, 11 E. 
2. came to the said Agnes, Wife of John de Caltoft, then aged forty Years, as Cousin 
and Heir of Beatrix; and to Thomas de Multon, Son of the said Isabell, the other Heir: 
which Thomas was then above fifteen Years old.

[NOTE: According to DNB Beatrix & Roger had a son Roger (who died without issue 
1317) and a son Matthew, who had sons. Either the Brabazon moiety of East Bridgford 
came to the other 2 sisters through some other means than indicated above, or 
Matthew was a son of Roger by another wife than Beatrix. Also, I believe that Multon's 
moiety came to the Deincourt family as indicated below because a daughter of 
Thomas Multon and Isabel Biset m. John Deincourt, William's father, and that Thomas 
Multon aged 15 as stated above was a grandson not son. The 3 sisters were born 
much earlier than most sources indicate--see notes for Beatrix.]

It appears that John Caltoft, (Son of Philip) 25 E. 3. infeoffed Sir John de Loudham, 
Knight, Richard Pensax, and others in his Moiety of this Manor, which descended to 
Alice his Daughter and Heir, who, it seems, was first married to Sir Thomas Hethe, and 
after to Sir William Chaworth.

Multon's Moiety was become Deyncourt's, in the Time of Edward the Third. The Jury, 
27 E. 3. found it not to the King's Loss, if he granted Leave for William Deyncurt to 
give a Mess. and three hundred Acres of Land, with the Appurtenances in this Place, 
to three Chaplains to celebrate in this Church of East Bruggeford.

The King, 35 E. 3. granted to Thomas atte Hethe, and Alice his Wife, who held one 
Moiety of this Manor, and to Robert Deyncurt, who held the other, that they should 
have a Market here on Tuesdays, and two Fairs yearly, to them and their Heirs.

In 49 E. 3. Alice, who had been formerly the Wife of Sir Thomas de Heth, Knight, 
made William Carbonell Rector of the Church of Alyngton, her Attorney, to deliver 
Seism to Sir John de Loudham, Chivaler, the younger, John de Welby, and to John de 
Staumford, Rector of the Church of East-Bridgeford, of her Manors of Est-Brigeforth, 
Thoresby, Alyngton, and Toynton. The Circumscription of her Seal is, Sigellum D. 
Alicæ de Hethe; and on the Shield is a Bend between two Cotises Dancè, impailing an 
Escutcheon, within an Orle of Cinquefoils, viz. Hethe impailing Caltoft.

Thomas Deyncourt, of Upminstre, in Essex, 36 H. 6. demised to Thomas Southwick, 
and Henry Normanvile, Esquire, his Manors of Alington, alias West-Alington, (which 
was also Biset's Land) in the County of Linc. Est-Briggeford, and the Advowson of that 
Church in Nott. Walley-Hall, in Darbishire; Kettlethorp-in-Keeton, in Rutl. and one 
Mess. called the Hall, in Kyrton, and all his Lands and Tenements in Alger-Kirk, 
Soterton, Bykirke, Wygtoft, and Boston, and a certain Rent annually of ten Marks, out 
of the Demesne of Tuxford. Howbeit it appears, 20 H. 6. that Robert Deyncourt died 
seized of the Moiety of this Manor, and ten Marks yearly Rent in Tuxford.- Ales, the 
Wife of William Lord Lovell, and Margaret of Raph Lord Crumwell, being then by the 
Jury found his Cousins and Heirs.

(Raph Boteler, Lord of Sudely, Knight, and Ales his Wife, Daughter and Heir of William 
Deyncourt, Knight, 8 E. 4. remitted all their Right and Claim to William Bishop of 
Winchester, in the Moiety of the Manor of East-Briggeford, and Advowson of the 
Church, and in ten Marks Rent in Tuxford, &c. And there was a Fine levied 20 E. 4. 
between the said William Bishop of Winchester, and Sir Thomas Billing. Knight, Quer. 
and John Deyncourt, and Joane his Wife, and Robert Deyncourt their Son and Heir, 
Deforc. whereby this Moiety of the Manor and Advowson were settled on the said 
Bishop and his Heirs, who gave it to Magdalen College in Oxford, which he founded, 
whereto it still belongs.

The other half, which was Sir John Caltoft's before-mentioned, and with his said 
Daughter and Heir Alice, went to the Family of Chaworth, (as in Wiverton is also 
shown) was it seems settled on Thomas Chaworth her Son and Heir, and Nicola, 
Daughter of Sir Reginald Braybrooke, his first Wife, and the Heirs of their Bodies.

NOTE: Thoroton indicates in a family chart that John Biset was a son of Henry son of 
William "the Carpenter" Biset. This is not the case, as John was a son of Henry Biset, 
son of William's brother Manasser.
