358 He held a command in the right wing at Therouenne in 1513. (Stafford), Edward 3rd Duke of Buckingham (I768)
 
359 He held numerous other official appointments in the North—e.g. Commissioner to treat with the Scots, 1471–73, 1483, 1484, 1488; of array in the Northern counties, 1472; Justice of the Forests North of Trent and constable of Bamborough Castle, 5 June 1471; constable of Dunstanborough and Knaresborough Castles; constable and porter of the castle of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 5 March 1473/74. By Henry VII he was made bailiff of Tyndale, Northumberland, in 1486. (Percy), Henry 4th Earl of Northumberland (I763)
 
360 He held the manors of North Cliff, Sledmere, Newsham, and Broughton by Malton of others than the King. Constable, Robert (I1943)
 
361 He is called "Earl of Buckingham and Stafford," when created a Duke (1444) according to the recital of that creation in the Parliamentary settlement of his precedency. In an indenture 13 Feb. (1443/4) 22 Hen. VI he is styled "The Right Mighty Prince Humphrey, Earl of Buckingham, Hereford, Stafford, Northampton, and Perche, Lord of Brecknock and Holderness." He did not, however, add thereto the title of "Earl of Essex," though his grandfather, Thomas, Duke of Gloucester and Earl of Buckingham, had assumed that title, (as well as those of Hereford and Northampton) having married the daughter and co-heiress of Humphrey (de Bohun), Earl of Hereford, Essex, and Northampton. The Earldom of Perche was a foreign title and the Lordships of Brecknock and Holderness were not peerage dignities. (Stafford), Humphrey 1st Duke of Buckingham (I742)
 
362 He is mentioned in the will of his Godfather and maternal relation, John Bacchus, of Welton, dated 3 February 1759. Huntington, John (I2223)
 
363 He is mentioned in the wills of his father and mother. Akeroyd, John (I2265)
 
364 He is said to have been with the (Lancastrian) Duke of Exeter at Hull in 1460, awaiting Queen Margaret's arrival, having been personally summoned by the Queen. (Neville), George 1st Lord Latimer (I897)
 
365 He is said to have died aged 22 weeks and 6 days, which would mean that he died 1 April 1719, the day on which he stated to have been baptized. Greville, Hon. Fulke (I2673)
 
366 He is stated by Foster in the pedigree of Wyvill, perhaps erroneously, to have died in 1711, although the pedigree of Dalton states that administration of his estate was granted 10 July, 1710. Dalton, Thomas (I1823)
 
367 He laid claim to this office, as his hereditary right, in 1514. He claimed the Lord High Constableship as heir of Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford, who, it was stated, "held the manors of Harlefield, Newnam, and Whytenhurst [Haresfield, Newnham, and Wheatenhurst], in the county of Gloucester of the King by the service of being Constable of England." The judges decided that the office should "have continuance in the Duke notwithstanding that one of the three manors has come to the hands of our Lord the King; for otherwise it will ensue that the Duke will have the two other manors without doing any service for them, and so the Duke is compellable at the pleasure of the King to do and exercise the office." For an account of the confusion into which the judges were led by their misconception of the nature of the tenure of this office, which was not in fact attached to the manors but was an office held in fee; and of the confusion worse confounded in which Law Lords and Counsel in modern peerage cases have been involved owing to their blind acceptance of the decision in this case, see J. H. Round's Peerage and Pedigree (vol. i, pp. 147–166), where an amusing exposure of legal methods is given in the article termed "The Muddle of the Law." See also Appendix D in The Complete Peerage, volume II (1912). (Stafford), Edward 3rd Duke of Buckingham (I768)
 
368 He marched at the head of his own men and some Londoners, but his chief supporters fell away and he was obliged to make his submission at Bedford. (Plantagenet), Henry 3rd Earl of Lancaster and of Leicester, Count of Provence (I596)
 
369 He mentions Elizabeth his 1st wife, late baroness of Greystoke, Beatrice his wife, Elizabeth (unmarried) daughter of Robert Greystoke kt. deceased, and John Greystoke his son and heir male. (de Greystoke), Ralph 5th Lord Greystoke (I1756)
 
370 He obtained this estate from the Queen in 1601. (Greville), Fulke 1st Baron Brooke of Beauchamps Court (I2616)
 
371 He owed the Crown £100 in 1523, and it was ordered that the sum be collected from his lands. Guildford, George (I713)
 
372 He paid a fine for licence to heriot a third part of all the lands of the said John and Alice within the graveship of Sowerby in the parish of Halifax, 12 January, 35 Elizabeth (1592). Aykeroide, Henry (I1594)
 
373 He participated in the Yorkist victory over the Lancastrians at Hexham, 15 May 1464. (Stafford), John 1st Earl of Wiltshire (I747)
 
374 He probably died young. He is mentioned in the will of his Godfather, 3 February, 1759, under which he received a pecuniary legacy of £100, but not in the will of his father, 9 November, 1779. He therefore probably died between 1759 and 1779. Huntington, John (I2223)
 
375 He professed the Roman Catholic faith, 21 October 1685, but after the Revolution he returned to the Anglican communion, 15 May 1692, taking his seat in the House of Lords, 14 November 1693. (Lennox), Charles 1st Duke of Richmond (I925)
 
376 He received a writ of livery of the earldom and honour of Leicester, 29 March 1324 (the castle of Kenilworth excepted), becoming thereby Earl of Leicester, and possibly Steward of England. (Plantagenet), Henry 3rd Earl of Lancaster and of Leicester, Count of Provence (I596)
 
377 He received his writ, as Lord Willoughby de Broke, 25 February 1695/96, taking his seat, 27 February, as a Peer by descent, without ceremony, in the ancient seat or place of his ancestor, Sir Robert Willoughby, next above the Lord Eure. (Verney), Richard 11th Lord Willoughby de Broke (I2622)
 
378 He resigned on the same day the dignity of Earl of Surrey in favour of his eldest son, for his son's life. (Howard), Thomas 2nd Duke of Norfolk (I404)
