    • --Other Fields Ref Number: 6293 William de Percy, 6th Baron Percy, who came into full possession at the death of his uncle Richard. He was born in 1193. In 1200 he was appointed one of the two custodes of the county of York under William de Stuteville, and in the same year sheriff of Northumberland. In 1214 he served in Poitou. In 1215 he followed the twenty-five barons who opposed King John. In 1217 he joined the royalist. He married, first, about 1233, Elena, daughter of Ingelram de Baliol, by whom he acquired in dower, Dalton, afterwards called Dalton Percy, in the Bishopric of Durham. (see Baliol) William married, second, Joan de Briwere, daughter of William and his wife Beatrice (see Briwee). He married, third, Nocholaa de Stuteville. William died 28 July 1245.

      6th Baron Percy
      William De Percy was only 15 when his father died, and now became by right Baron De Percy, but his uncle, Richard De Percy, found no difficulty in usurping not only the administering of the entire estates of the family, but even the baronial title as well. Young William, 7th Baron Percy, was of a sluggard disposition, as may be judged from his tame submission to the usurpation of his uncle. Not until he had reached middle age did he make any effort to regain his ravished lordships. He married Eleana, daughter of Inglegram De Baliol, and her relatives gradually induced William to assert himself. Richard defied every effort to dislodge him, and when the King himself was appealed to, a compromise was effected by which Richard was left in undisputed possession of the barony and estates until his death, after which William was to inherit both, to the exclusion of the usurper's sons, who died sine prole. When William, 7th Baron Percy, at length came into his own, he was in his 52nd year, and died in 1245. He had seven sons.
      (Kin of Mellcene Thurman Smith, page 551)

      William Percy married 1st Elean De Baloil and had seven sons, and married 2nd Joan Bruere-Briwere, and had four daughters, Anastasia, Joan, Alice and Agnes. William Percy was the son of Henry Percy and Isabel De Brus; son of Agnes Percy and Joscelyn De Lovain, who was descended from the Dukes of Brabant and Hainault, and all the French Kings back to Charlemagne. William Percy did not come into full possession of all those rights and properties, which had been usurped at the decease of his grandmother Agnes by his uncle Richard Percy, youngest son of Agnes and Joscelyn, until 1244. He did not live long to enjoy them, for he died in 1245.

      William de Percy; attained his majority some time between mid-1212 and mid-1214; was with Henry III at the taking of William de Forz, titular Count of Aumale's castle of Biham in Lincs 1221

      (Aumale being another of the 25 magnates charged with ensuring that the Magna Carta was observed but who was now seen as in rebellion against royal authority rather than in understandable opposition to despotism, as had been the case when John was still on the throne five years earlier);

      Married 1st Joan (died by 12 June 1233), daughter of Sir William Briwere or Brewer, his guardian when a minor; married 2nd Ellen (who brought him as dowry Dalton, Co Durham, in consequence called Dalton Percy (it is now in Cleveland), and died a short while before 22 Nov 1281), daughter of Ingram de Balliol by a daughter and heir of Walter de Berkeley, Chamberlain of Scotland, and died just before 28 July 1245.

      William de Percy came into full possession of all those rights and properties which had been usurped at the decease of his mother but did not live long to enjoy them, for he d. in 1245, and was s. by his son (by his 2nd wife, Elena, dau. of Ingelram de Baliol, by whom he obtained in dower Dalton, afterwards Dalton Percy, in the bishopric of Durham), Henry de Percy.
