About Sir Baldwin Fulford, Kt

Primary Sources

IPM taken at Launceston 1 Oct. 1464 on the estate of Baldwin Fulford (Cornwall and Devonshire Inquisitions Post Mortem, Damerel-Greienvill LDS film #917527):

"William Durneforde was seised of the manors of Durneford, Hokeh... and.... [and has issue Nichola] who married Henry Fulford; and gave those manors to the said Henry and Nichola and their heirs; they had issue Alice, who married William Bykebury, they had issue Elizabeth. Alice and William died; Elizabeth married Robert Burton, and they had issue Elizabeth. Nichola afterwards died and Henry Fulford married Willelma daughter of Nicholas Morton; they had issue Baldwin Fulford aforesaid; Henry and Willelma are dead. Robert Burton and Elizabeth his wife were seised of the said manors: the said Elizabeth died and her daughter Elizabeth died without issue; Robert is yet living, and holds the same, with reversion to said Baldwin."

Note: The only error in the above is the statement that the daughter of Henry and wife of William Bykebury was called Alice; her name was Joan, as shown in her husband's IPM. Otherwise, the descent of the manors as above is confirmed in the IPMs of William Bykebury and Robert Burton.
