Sir Thomas de Furnival, b. ca. 1270, d. 1332, 1st Lord Furnival, of Worksop, co. 
Nottingham, and Sheffield, Co. York; m. (1) by Jan 1272/3, Joan le Despenser, d. ca. 
1322, daughter of Sir Hugh le Despenser, b. 1223, d. 1265, Justiciar of England, of 
Loughborough and Arnesby, co. Leicester., by wife Aline, b. 1246, d. 1281, daughter 
& heir of Sir Philip Basset, d. 1272, Justiciar of England, of Wycombe, co. 
Buckingham, and Wootton Basset, co. Wilts, by (1) wife, Hawise, daughter of Sir 
Matthew de Lovaine. [Ancestral Roots]

Note: I am not sure at all about the "b. ca. 1270". The reason that Thomas inherited 
in 1291 was because that was the year his father died, not the year he came of age. 
He was a minor when married in 1272/3, but probably more than 3 years old.

Following copied from Susan Cary, World Connect db=poliksa, rootsweb.com:

Thomas de Furnival, 1st Baron Furnival, who had a summons, in the 22nd of Edward I, 
amongst other great men, to attend the King in order to advise of the affairs of the 
realm, and having done so, received command to repair to Portsmouth, upon the first 
of the ensuing September, well fitted with horse and arms, for the expedition then 
intended against France. In the next year, 23 June, 1295, he was first summoned to 
Parliament as a baron, and from that period his lordship appears, for several years, to 
have taken a distinguished part in the Scottish wars. In 27th of Edward I he was 
constituted Captain-General and Lieutenant to the King, for the Counties of 
Nottingham and Derby, and had summons to Parliament uninterruptedly until 27 
January, 1332, 3rd of Edward III, but he did not hold lands by barony. Lord Furnival 
married Elizabeth, daughter of Peter de Montfort, Jr., of Beldesert Castle, County 
Warwick, and was succeeded at his decease by his eldest son, Thomas.
