TAILBOYS, Sir Walter (1350-1417), of Sotby and Skellingthorpe, Lincs.

Family and Education
b. Hepple, Northumb. 2 Feb. 1350, s. and h. of Sir Henry Tailboys (d. 23 Feb. 1369) of Hepple by Eleanor, da. and h. of Sir Gilbert Burradon of Burradon, Northumb., niece and h. of Gilbert Umfraville (d.s.p. 6 Jan. 1381), 3rd earl of Angus and 3rd Lord Kyme, de jure Baroness Kyme. m. bef. 1396, Margaret, 3s. inc. Walter 1da. Kntd. by Oct. 1386.CP, i. 149-51; vii. 358-60; CFR, ix. 252; Hist. Northumb. ed. Dodds, xv. 404; CIPM, xii. 422; xiii. no. 140; xv. nos. 431-6; CCR, 1413-19, p. 465; Reg. Repingdon (Lincoln Rec. Soc. lvii), 98-99; Scrope v. Grosvenor, i. 177; ii. 402-4. Lincs. Peds. ed. Maddison, 945, states that the MP married twice, his second wife being Mary, the sister of Adam Tirwhit (and thus daughter of (Sir) William Tirwhit* of Kettleby). This is highly unlikely, both on chronological grounds and because Tailboys was survived by his only known wife, Margaret, to whom dower was assigned in November 1417 (CCR, 1413-19, pp. 406-7). The Mary, widow of Walter Tailboys, who died in 1447 (CIPM (Rec. Comm.), iv. 234), was almost certainly married to the MP’s grandson Walter Tailboys the younger (CCR, 1422-9, p. 395; 1429-35, p. 110). This member of the family is omitted by Maddison from his pedigree, presumably because he predeceased his father.
