ST. BARBE, OF SOUTH BRENT, SOMERSETSHIRE

[RBodine996]

Can anyone point out a reliable account of the family of St. Barbe, of
South Brent, Somersetshire who later came into possession of Ashington,
Somerset? I am aware of the account in Burke's Commoners, 2: 447.

Richard St. Barbe = Matilda
He, his wife and children are named in a Somerset fine of 1316/7.

Sir John St. Barbe = Mary Langelonde (Longlande). Through her mother,
their son Richard St. Barbe inherited the Furneaux manor of Ashington,
Somersetshire.

Isabel St. Barbe = Sir William Stradling (died 1406/7), of St. Donats'
Castle, Wales

Somersetshire in 1623: 74
