Notes for Sir Thomas Uvedale Kt. - Direct Ancestor
Received Bromwich Manor from his brother’s son Thomas by deed in 1480/81.
Thomas Uvedale accompanied King Henry V to the battle of Agincourt, there he captured a prisoner129. Not all the original rolls of arms for the expedition to France still exist. Thomas is not on the extant rolls, however he is recorded as noted in the Appendix XV to the “History of the Battle of Agincourt” by Sir Harris Nicolas as being entitled to the ransom of a French prisoner (Jean de Boisgarnier130) just after Agincourt. On this basis he is “it may be presumed to have been at Agincourt”.
Thomas again went with King Henry V to France in 1417, under John Mowbray, Earl Marshall and Duke of Norfolk.131
Thomas Uvedale, along with his son Sir William Uvedale fought at the battle of Towton during the “War of the Roses” on the Yorkist side on the 29th of March 1461.
Sir Thomas Uvedale participated in the battle of Barnet.
Sir Thomas was knighted before February 1968.
In May 1471, after the battle of Tewkesbury, the Society of Winchester College gave a breakfast to “Sir Thomas Uvedale, Margaret of Anjou’s chamberlain, and others of her suite, when they passed through Winchester, probably on the way to Southampton to seek safety in foreign parts.”132 Imagine he was 76 at the time!
