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.

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.
* Sir A.M.'s MSS.,Vol. I, Sup. II, p.27.
Omnibus,etc. Johannes Malet, Dominus de Enemere, sal: Nov: me relaxasse Baldwino Malet frati meo et Johannae uxori ejus terram quam Hawisia mater mea eis concessit, etc. Dat: apud Enemere anno regni Ed:19'o. [A.D. 1346.]
