HORDE, Thomas (d.1498), of Bridgnorth, Salop.

Family and Education
s. and h. of Richard Horde*. m. by Sept. 1446, Joyce, da. and coh. of John Stapleton† (d.c.1446) of Stapleton, Salop, by his 2nd w. Margery, 1s. John† (d.v.p.), 4da. A visitation ped. of the fam. in 1623 assigns him a son and four daughters. The husbands of two of the daughters are there identified as Sir Edmund Cornwall (d.1489) of Burford and Sir Richard Lacon (d.1503) of Willey, an identification confirmed by contemporary sources (although the ped. is mistaken in the Christian names of their wives). It is thus likely that the husbands of the other two das. are correctly given as Sir John Gifford and William Charleton of Apley, the former of whom was a feoffee of our MP’s gds. and h.: Vis. Salop (Harl. Soc. xxviii), 252; E150/843/1. Our MP’s son John is said to have married Mary, da. of William Bulkeley of Beaumaris. If this is correct, she must either have been his 1st wife or else her Christian name is given mistakenly, for in 1474 John’s wife was named Alice: E150/843/1.
