3 unusual facts about Baron Bardolf


Baron Bardolf

The (historical) barony of Lovel had been forfeit since the attainder of Francis Lovel, 1st Viscount Lovel, son of Joan Lady Lovel abovementioned, in 1485, and any right to it was vested in the same co-heirs as the baronies of Beaumont and Bardolf, descendants of Lovel's sisters.

His co-heirs were his two great-nephews, descended from his only sister Joan (died 5 August 1466) by her first husband John Lovel, 8th Baron Lovel: Sir Brian Stapleton (died 2 April 1550), son of Sir Brian Stapleton by his wife Joan, elder daughter of Joan Lady Lovel; and Sir John Norreys (died 1564), son of Sir Edward Norreys by his wife Frideswide, younger daughter of Joan Lady Lovel.
