Alcester, co. Warwick and Powyck, co. Worcester; Steward of the
Household of KING EDWARD I; Constable of Gloucester Castle.
The "Homer Beers James Genealogy" on the WWW adds:
"Walter de Beauchamp, of Powyke and Alcester. (See Burke, pg. 34.) He
having purchased from Reginald Fitzherbert a moiety of the manor of
Alcester, co. Warwick, made that one of his principal seats, calling it
Beauchamp Court; the other being at Powyke, co. Worcester. This Walter,
who was an eminent person at the period in which he lived, being signed
with the cross for a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, had a legacy of 200
marks bequeathed to him by his father, for his better performance of
that voyage. He was steward of the household to King Edward I., and
attended that monarch to Flanders, and into Scotland, where he shared in
the honors of Falkirk on July 22, 1298. In the 29th year of the same reign
he was one of the lords in the parliament of Lincoln, being then styled
Dominus de Alcester, who signified to the Pope, under their seals, the
superiority of King Edward over the kingdom of Scotland. In Prestwich's
"Edward I," it describes Walter de Beauchamp in a quotation from "The
Siege of Carlaverock" as follows: "a knight who would have been one of
the best of all, according to my opinion, if he had not been too proud and
rashly insolent, but you won't hear anyone talk of the steward without a
'but' ". He married Alice de Toni (Tony), her first husband.
They had the following children:
1. Walter de Beauchamp, d.s.p., succeeded by his brother, William.
2. William de Beauchamp, d.s.p., succeeded by his brother, Giles.
3. Giles de Beauchamp, who had already inherited, by the settlement of
his older brother, the lordship of Alcester, the manor-house of which,
called Beauchamp's Court, he had license to fortify in the 14th year of
Edward III. and to embattle it; and he obtained similar permission
regarding his home at Fresh Water, in the Isle of Wight, in the 16th year
of the same reign, 1342-43. He died October 12, 1361. He married in
1329 Catherine (Katherine) Bures, a descendant of Surety William Malet.
They had the following children:
1. John de Beauchamp is little mentioned, save his founding a chantry
in the parish church of Alcester, in the time of Edward III., for one priest
to celebrate divine service daily at the altar of All Saints, and his being
in the expedition against France in the 3rd year of King Richard II. This
John de Beauchamp married Elizabeth St. John, who died in 1411; and
they left two sons as follows:
1. William de Beauchamp, of Powick, co. Worcester, who died before
1431, was Constable of the Castle of Gloucester in the 16th year of King
Richard II. and Sheriff of Worcestershire in 1401, married Catherine
Ufflete., eventually co-heir of Gerard de Ufflete. They had a son, John de
Beauchamp.
2. Walter de Beauchamp, from whom the Beauchamps, Barons of St.
Amand, derived. He was a military person of renown in the reigns of King
Henry IV. and King Henry V. He married Elizabeth Roche, daughter of John
Roche
John was succeeded by his eldest son, William."
