The elder line of the Derbyshire Knyvetons were seated at Bradley. We
have seen that they were founded by Henry de Knyveton, son and heir
son of the elder Matthew de Knyveton by his first wife, a daughter of
Roger de Stretton.
Herewith a tentative pedigree of the Bradley line:
1. Matthew de Kniveton, of Bradley; received a pardon from the King,
1266 (CPR); dead by 1285; married firstly N Stretton, the daughter of
Roger de Stretton; married secondly Elizabeth, made claims respecting
dower at Ilum, 1285; charged with murder, 1305. Issue:
2. Sir Henry de Kniveton, son of his father's first marriage; of
Bradley; ff 1288-1313 (PROCAT); commissioned to inquire into the sale
of wood in the forest of High Peak, 27 Edward I [1298-1299] (PRO E
146/1/16); one of this name married to Isabel by 9 Edward I
[1280-1281] (Thoroton); ancestor of the Knivetons of Bradley. Issue:
3. William de Kniveton, son and heir of Henry and Isabel [Coll. Hist.
Staff., 1888, p 26, citing the Banco Rolls of Michaelmas 4 Edward II,
i.e. 1310]; issue:
4. Henry de Kniveton, son and heir of William de Kniveton; held at
Underwood and Bradley; dead by 1349; married Isabel (Derbyshire Feet
of Fines, H. Garratt, 1985, p 10); living in 1349; issue:
5. John de Kniveton, son and heir of Henry de Kniveton; a minor in
1349; one of this name, "of Bradley", 1397 (John Rylands Library,
Manchester: Phillipps Charters, PHC/325, dated 28 October 1397)
NB The 1349 reference is from the following:
"In September 1349, an agreement was made between Henry [de
Brailsford] and Isabel, the widow of Henry de Kniveton, concerning the
ward and marriage of John, son and heir of Henry de Kniveton"
(Derbyshire Archaeological Society Journal, 1960, p 76, citing
Radbourne Charters, 287)

Cox, in his 'History of the Churches of Derbyshire', sub Ashbourne,
states that the Cokaynes descended from a daughter of "Sir William de

presents no great chronological difficulties, although the subsequent
Cokayne generations are unclear, due to conflicting sources.

It seems that this Isabel was likewise an heiress. In the Plea Rolls

and Isabella his wife, Roger de Mercynton and Alienora his wife, and
Richard Draycote and Agnes his wife sued Roger de Mercynton and

Gayton. The defendants did not appear, and are to be summoned for the
morrow of St. Martin, and the tenements to be taken into the King's
hands".
The note (6) reads:
"This is rendered as in the original, but it is difficult to
understand it, for it will be seen that Roger de Marchington and
Alienora his wife are both plaintiffs and defendants in the suit. The
female plaintiffs are the co-heiresses, or the representatives of the
co-heiresses, of Gayton. The suit does not occur again in Banco, and
was probably decided at the assizes of 9 Edward I in Staffordshire".
