• Notes

  Humphrey V 2nd Earl of Hereford, son and heir of Henry de Bohun, a Magna Charta Surety, returned to the path of loyalty, and was permitted, some time before 1239, to inherit the earldom of Essex from his maternal uncle, William de Mandeville. But in 1258 he fell away, like his father, from the royal to the baronial cause when he was appointed in the Oxford parliament to reform the administration Humphrey V headed the first secession of the Welsh Marchers from the party of the opposition in 1263 and was amongst the captives whom the Montfortians took at Lewes. Later he was selected as one of the twelve arbitrators to draw up the ban of Kenilworth (1266) by which the disinherited rebels were allowed to make their peace.
