"Lambourne: Manors | British History Online". www.british-history.ac.uk. Retrieved 14 February 2025. By 1411 the manor had passed to Thomas Lampet, whose widow Elizabeth was then holding it for life. (fn. 24) In that year it was settled upon William Lampet, 'kinsman' of Thomas. (fn. 25) In 1412 it was said to be held by Isabel Lampet. (fn. 26) She was probably identical with the Elizabeth of 1411. The manor subsequently passed to John Lampet, who was succeeded before 1456-60 by his daughter Cecily wife of William Curzon. (fn. 27) A William Curzon died holding Lambourne in 1485. It was then stated that Robert Curzon had enfeoffed certain persons with the manor. (fn. 28) This implies that Robert was the predecessor of the lastnamed William. That the William Curzon who died in 1485 was a young man and not identical with the William Curzon of 1456-60 is also suggested by the fact that he left an infant daughter, Mary, as his heir. (fn. 29) Mary apparently married a member of the Tey family, of Ardleigh, probably Sir Thomas Tey (d. 1540). (fn. 30) Sir Thomas made a conveyance of the manor in 1520. (fn. 31) Lambourne was apparently not among his possessions at his death. By 1547 it had passed to Robert Barfoot, who died in that year. (fn. 32)
