He was made a Knight of the Bath at the coronation of Richard III, July 6, 1483, and died testate with a will dated Oct. 3, 1485 [Testamenta Vetusta, v. I, p. 378-379], in which he made provision for his wife and children. He enfeoffed his sister's husband Giles Daubeney with his manors and lands at Chideock in Dorset, Isle Brewers in Somerset, and Frampton upon Severn in Gloucester, which had been the lands of his mother Dame Katherine, to make an estate from them for his wife Dame Katherine. He enfeoffed his wife's mother Lady Joan Dinham, his wife's brother John Lord Dinham, John Morton, bishop of Ely, and others with his lands of Lanherne and all the rest of his property in Cornwall and Devon to make an estate to "find my children necessaries." The actual date of his death is extant in the many I.P.M.s taken after his death, being the heir to both his father and his mother, a co-heiress in her own right.
