Excerpt from "Notices of an English Branch of the Malet Family", by Arthur Malet, published 1885, p 35-36, appendices L1 - L9:

BALDWIN MALET OF ENMORE AND DEANDON.*

Baldwin, the son of John Malet and his wife Elizabeth, daughter of Sir John de Kingston, was at his father's death, being under age, placed under the guardianship of Margaret Beauchamp.** In Sir A.M.'s MSS. there are forty-seven extracts containing his name; most of these give the name only. Some few are of interest: one*** shows that Baldwin's wife Elizabeth was living in 1373; another,+ dated 3 Richard II, 1380, is an engagement entered into by Baldwin and Elizabeth his wife with John Hull,++ that their son and heir apparent, John, should marry Joan Hull, and setting apart for their residence and maintenance the manor of St. Audries and lands in Exeter. Elizabeth, Baldwin's first wife, was the daughter of Sir Thos. Trivet; by her he had issue:

1. John Malet.
2. Eleanor = Sir William Hody, Chief Baron. of the Exchequer.

Baldwin married for the second wife Amicia, daughter of Richard Lyffe of Corypole, by whom he had issue:

1. Hugh Malet.
2. Phillipa = Thomas Martin of Athelhampton, Dorset.

There is an extract from a deed of Baldwin's, date 1375,+++ purporting to have made over to John Trivet for his life the manor of Oake, and providing that after his death it should go to William Coker and his heirs.

It appears that by this time the overlordship of Enmore had passed from the Beauchamps to the ancient family of Gournay, for in 1399# we find that Baldwin does homage to Matthew Gurney for Enemore, Sutton, and Oke. And in 1401## he does homage to "my very noble dame Alice Stury for Hethcombe in Blacksoll."

Baldwin Malet, as appears from the Council Book in Bib. Cotton, Cleopatra, F III, was one of the knights summoned to the Great Council, the next day after the assumption of our Lady, at Westminster, 2 Henry IV, A.D. 1401.

The earliest mention of Amicia Lyffe as his wife is in 1402,### and in 1426 she as his widow,@ makes over to trustees the manor of Corypole.

Amicia Malet and Johanna Tilly,@@ were the coheiresses of Richard Lyffe, from whom the Malets obtained the estate of Corypole, and quartered the arms of Lyffe and Valetort.


* From this period I have the benefit of the Rev. Frederic Brown's M.S. notes, chiefly extracts from papers in the Prerogative Court.

Note:
The dates given below do not jibe with the probable timeframe of William Hody's life. Perhaps they are in reference to a later William Hody:

Founders Kin of Wadham College Oxford. "Sir William Huddye of Dorsetshire, Knight"
"Lord chief baron of the exchequer, attorney general, 1486; called to the degree of serjeant at law 1486; appointed lord chief baron by Henry VII, 1487; resigned 1522 and died soon afterwards, aged above 80 years."
He may be the William Hody who represented Totnes in the parliament of 1472. His name is first mentioned in the year-books in 1476. He was in parliament in 1483, and procured a reversal of the attainder of his uncle, Sir Alexander Hody of Bowre, Somrset, who had been attained at Edward IV's accession for adherence to the house of Lancaster. In 1485, shortly after the accession of Henry VII, he became attorney general, and was made a serjeant-at-law at the end of the year. On 29 Oct 1486 he was appointed chief baron of the exchequer, was still a judge in 1516, and probably died in 1522 when John Fitzjames became chief baron. - DNB DNB also gives daughters Joan who married Richard Warr and Jane who married Lawrence Wadham. This needs to be checked against other records.

Excerpt from "Notices of an English Branch of the Malet Family", by Arthur Malet, published 1885, p 34-35, appendix K:

JOHN MALET OF ENMORE AND DEANDON.

John, the son of Baldwin Malet and his wife Hawise the daughter of Sir Simon Ralegh, married, in fulfilment of his father Baldwin's engagement, Elizabeth, the daughter of Sir John de Kingston, Knight. As this covenant was made in 1338, and his father was born in 1284, Baldwin was fifty-four years old at the time. I have no information of the date when John Malet succeeded his father, but as we have a deed* in which he confirms to his brother Baldwin land granted to him by their mother which is dated 1346, it must have been between 1338 and that year. There is in Sir A.M.'s MSS., vol. i, sup. 2, p.22, an entry stating that Sir John Malet had George, son and heir of Robert Lovel, in ward, 21 Edward III, A.D. 1348. There are no later dates than this. By his wife Elizabeth he left a son and heir, Baldwin Malet.

BALDWIN MALET OF ENMORE AND DEANDON.

Baldwin Malet, the son of John Malet and Sibylla the daughter of Sir John St. Cleere, was born 12 Edward I, A.D. 1284; he married Hawise, or Avicia, daughter of Sir Simon Ralegh of Nettlecombe. The first mention of his name is a mere entry in Sir A.M.'s MSS., dated 1311, "Baldwin and Raymund Malet." The next entry of his name is in 1312,* an acknowledgement of homage due to and paid to Baldwin Malet by William Ridel. After this are in the same MS. many entries in which he is designated Baldwin Malet filius Johannis, Dominus de Durburgh, &c., and in the same MSS., vol. ii, p.5, "Baldwin possessed this estate [Deandon] and presented to the Church in the 3rd year of King Edward III, A.D.

From Sir Wm. Pole's collections also we find** that Baldwin paid homage for Enmore to the Beauchamp of the time, the lineal successor of Mabel, the daughter of the last Baron William Malet, thus showing that this possession had been held by Baldwin's ancestor Fichet from the barons Malet, the successors of Roger de Corcelle, the owner of it at the time of the survey. There is yet another entry,*** the contract between Baldwin Malet and William de Whitfield and his wife Constance, that John the eldest son of Baldwin should marry their daughter.

Baldwin,by his wife Hawise, or Avicia, had issue John and Baldwin.

Excerpt from "Notices of an English Branch of the Malet Family", by Arthur Malet, published 1885, p 34-35, appendix K:

JOHN MALET OF ENMORE AND DEANDON.

John, the son of Baldwin Malet and his wife Hawise the daughter of Sir Simon Ralegh, married, in fulfilment of his father Baldwin's engagement, Elizabeth, the daughter of Sir John de Kingston, Knight. As this covenant was made in 1338, and his father was born in 1284, Baldwin was fifty-four years old at the time. I have no information of the date when John Malet succeeded his father, but as we have a deed* in which he confirms to his brother Baldwin land granted to him by their mother which is dated 1346, it must have been between 1338 and that year. There is in Sir A.M.'s MSS., vol. i, sup. 2, p.22, an entry stating that Sir John Malet had George, son and heir of Robert Lovel, in ward, 21 Edward III, A.D. 1348. There are no later dates than this. By his wife Elizabeth he left a son and heir, Baldwin Malet.
