Family and Education
s. and h. of William Muncaster (d. by 22 July 1388) of Torpenhow and Hayton. m. Joan, poss. 1da. Kntd. by Dec. 1385.CIPM, xvi. no. 722; CFR, x. 119; Cumb. and Westmld. Antiq. and Arch. Soc. n.s. vii. 237; xiii. 235-6; xviii. 233-4. Muncaster is said to have left one daughter who married Sir Peter Tilliol* (ibid. xviii. 118 et seq.), but this is an error arising from a mistaken reading of the family pedigree. The marriage alliance between the Tilliols and the Muncasters actually took place at least two generations earlier.
