    • From Wikipedia (see link in Sources):

      Nicholas Longespee was a medieval Bishop of Salisbury.

      Longespee was the son of William Longespee, Earl of Salisbury and William's wife, Ela.[1] He was a canon of Salisbury Cathedral before 1272 and held the office of treasurer of the diocese of Salisbury before 1275. He also held the position of rector of Lacock.[2]

      Longespee was elected bishop between 8 November and 12 December 1291 and consecrated on 16 March 1292. He died 18 May 1297.[3] He was buried at Salisbury, but his heart was buried at Lacock and his viscera at Ramsbury.[

      From Medieval Lands (see link in father's page):
      NICHOLAS Longespee (-1297, bur Salisbury Cathedral). The Book of Lacock names “Guillelmus Longespe secundus…Ricardum… Stephanum…Nicholaum” as the sons of “Guillelmus Longespe ex…Ela”, adding that Nicholas was “Ep’us Sarum” and was buried “apud Sarum”[1882]. Bishop of Salisbury 1291-1297.
