• Background Information. 141
Stephen de Meinill the Third, son and heir, was under age on 9 Mar 1218/9, when Hugh de Baliol was retaining possession of the land formerly belonging to Robert de Meinill by reason of having the custody of the heir, though repeatedly ordered to surrender it to the Archbishop of Canterbury. He appears to have come of age between Oct 1224 and Feb 1225/6. In 1226, his presentee was instituted to the church of Lowthorpe, the advowson of which he held by reason of the custody of the land and heir of Walter de Louthorp. In 1227, an ordination concerning the church of Rudby was made by the Archbishop of York with his assent. In 1229, he was pardoned the scutage for 5 knights' fees which he held of the archbishopric of Canterbury, as the see was then void. In the same year, he quitclaimed to the Abbot of Fountains his right in two fisheries in Eston, and he granted lands to Byland Abbey in 1230. He quitclaimed to Stephen de Segrave his right in lands in Cold Overton, co. Leicester, circa 1237. In 1241, through the default of Adam de Hilton, he was unable to reply at the exchequer for the tax of a thirtieth from the fees of the archbishopric of Canterbury in co. York. In 1251, it was found that he had not disseised the Prior of Guisborough of land in Eston. In 1257, he granted to the Abbot of Fountains two carucates of land in Aldwark, to hold of him in pure and perpetual alms. On 24 Dec 1263 he was among those to whom the keeping of the Northern counties was committed; and on 10 Jul 1264 and again during August he had a safe conduct with others for coming to the King with his household, horses, harness, and goods. In 1268, he was a party to a fine with Geoffrey, prior of Bridlington, whose right he recognized to a moiety of a knight's fee in Bridlington, he and his heirs being admitted to the benefits of the church thereof. He granted to the priory of Healaugh Park a yearly rent of three marks from three carucates of land in Hutton Rudby, of his fee, in exchange for six bovates of land in Middleton. The name of his wife is unknown. He died before 16 July 1269.
