  • Notes 
    • 1.1.1.1.2 Robert Hansard ca.1272 - 1313
      Robert Hansard, second son of Sir Gilbert Hansard by his second wife Joan Columbers. He had a grant of lands in South Kelsey and Thornton- le-Moor, Lincolnshire and the manor of Walworth, Durham in 1291 [13].

      In 1292, in an action by Joan, widow of Gilbert Hansard, against Robert, son of Gilbert Hansard concerning the manor of Blacktoft, the gift of Egelina, widow of Philip de Columbers, it appears from the pleadings that Joan was the daughter of Egelina, and that Gilbert Hansard's father's name was John, and also that Robert was the son of Gilbert and Joan [18].

      Nothing much else seems to be known about him. He married Margaret and died before 24 August 1313, when the king ordered the sheriff of Lincoln and the bishop of Durham to give to Robert de Monte Alto, the custody of Gilbert son and heir of Robert Haunsard [19].

      In 1313 Bishop Kellaw granted to Patrick his brother, the custody of the lands of the heir of Robert Haunsard in Walworth, and the reversion of all the lands held in dower by Joan who was the wife of Gilbert Hansard and Margaret who was the wife of Robert in the vill of Walworth, until the legitimate age of Robert's heir [20].

      Robert and Margaret had one son; Gilbert.

      1.1.1.1.2.1 Sir Gilbert Hansard ca.1300 - 1339
      Almost nothing seems to known about this Sir Gilbert. He died before 26 July 1339 when Queen Isabella presented John de Hull priest to Thornton-le-Moor, Lincolnshire, in right of her wardship of Robert son and heir of Sir Gilbert Hansard [21].
      He married Lora, who was still alive in 1349 [22]. They had one son; Robert.
