  • Notes 
    • Early Life
      Matilda Hotham would have been born around the 1360s, daughter to Sir John Hotham and Margaret Inglebert (the daughter of Sir William Inglebert).

      The Hotham family
      Per Betham1:
      This family is descended from John de Trehouse, lord of Kilkenny in Ireland, who, for good services at the battle of Hastings, had a grant of the castle and manors of Colley Weston in Northampstonshire, and Hotham in Yorkshire.


      Family Life
      Matilda married Edmund FitzWilliam, son of John FitzWilliam of Sprotborough and Elizabeth Clinton. Note that in Yorkshire Pedigrees2 Matilda is called 'Margaret'.

      Death
      Matilda died on the 17th of May 1443 (though Yorkshire Pedigrees shows the 18th).
