Cecily D'Aubigny ¹

Marriage (1): Sir Roger de Mohaut

bullet Another name for Cecily was Cecelia de Albini Of Arundel.¹

bullet Noted events in her life were:

• Land: Castle Rising and the Manor of Killinghall, from 1224, Kings Lynn, NFK, England, UK. ² "For some reason which cannot easily be explained, no record was entered on the Close Rolls of the pourparty (property division) of the estates of Hugh, Earl of Arundel, which was assigned to Roger de Mohaut and Cecily his wife."

• Misc: She had livery of her inheritance, 23 Jul 1260. ³ When a tenant-in-chief (holding land directly from the Crown) died, his or her land reverted to the crown until the heir paid a sum of money (a relief), and was then able to take possession (livery of seisin) of the lands. However, if the heir was under age (under 21 for a male heir, under 14 for an heiress) then the wardship of the heir, custody of their lands and the right to arrange their marriage passed to the monarch, until the heir came of age. The wardship and marriage was not usually kept in Crown hands, but was sold, sometimes to the next of kin, often simply to the highest bidder.

Cecily married Sir Roger de Mohaut, son of Roger de Mohaut and Nichole. (Sir Roger de Mohaut was born circa 1200 in Hawarden, FLN, Wales, UK and died on 28 Jun 1260 in Kings Lynn, NFK, England, UK ⁴.)

bullet Marriage Notes:

Cecelia was the heir of her brother Hugh of Arundel. As a result Roger acquired the manor of Castle Rising, in Norfolk, and other extensive estates. ¹

This version was effectively replaced by a new and enlarged edition between 1910 and 1959 edited successively by Vicary Gibbs (Cokayne's nephew), H. A. Doubleday, Duncan Warrand, Lord Howard de Walden, Geoffrey H. White and R. S. Lea. The revised edition (published by the St. Catherine Press Limited), took the form of twelve volumes with volume twelve being issued in two parts. Volume thirteen was issued in 1940, not as part of the alphabetical sequence, but as a supplement covering creations and promotions within the peerage between 1900 and 1938.
