TILLIOL, Geoffrey (d.c.1400), of Torpenhow and Embleton, Cumb.

Family and Education
yr. of bro. of Sir Peter Tilliol. m. Alice, da. and h. of Sir John Ireby of High Ireby, 2da. Kntd. by Feb. 1398.Cumb. and Westmld. Antiq. and Arch. Soc. tract ser. no. 2, pp. 154, 176; C67/30 m. 30. The genealogy given in Peds. Plea Rolls ed. Wrottesley, 372, suggests that Alice’s two daughters, Joan and Katherine, were by her second husband, John Skelton, but they were, in fact, Geoffrey Tilliol’s children, as is evident from the nature of the property dispute in question.
