General Notes: Wikipedia says of Robert,
Through his Grey relations he had connections with the House of York, as his uncle Thomas Grey was executed as a result of the Southampton Plot in 1415, and his cousin, another Thomas Grey, married the earl of Cambridge's daughter; Cambridge had also suffered the same fate for his involvement in the plot against King Henry V.[1] His family came from Northumberland, where his father had been constable of Norham Castle, Sheriff of the honour, and its MP. He had died in 1436, at which point Robert Ogle (VI) entered into his inheritance.
Ogle's career as a servant of the crown began prior to his father's death. In 1434, he was a commissioner of the Truce with Scotland, and a year later appears to have been captain of Berwick Castle, which was worth circa £194 in peace time, with another £200 to be paid in time of war.[2] It was in which post he was captured by the Scots, during a border raid, and ransomed for 750 marks. As the king traditionally paid the ransoms of those captured on his service, Ogle applied for such; but the condition of the Lancastrian crown's finances at the time were such that he was still trying to get this compensation seven years later. He was later (1437\endash 38) appointed Sheriff of Northumberland.
When the political factionalism between Richard of York and the Duke of Somerset spilled over into physical violence in 1455, he supported the House of York.[1] This was probably due to the fact that he was a retainer of York's close ally Richard, Earl of Salisbury and brought a force of 600 men from the Scottish Marches to York's army at the First Battle of St Albans.[1] He was also, however, constable of the Bishopric of Durham, and, as the then-Bishop of Durham was Salisbury's brother, he probably also came with the bishop's "blessing... as his contribution to the Neville family cause."[3] With these men, one contemporary chronicler, stated, he personally 'tok the market place.'[4] His support for the Yorkists continued throughout the Wars of the Roses, and after the Battle of Towton, with Sir John Conyers he hunted the deposed king, Henry, and besieged him at Carham Castle.
He was created Baron Ogle on 26 July 1461, having been "the principal Northumbrian gentleman to support the Yorkist cause."[1] He was further placed in command of the Earl of Northumberland's forfeited castles- Alnwick, Warkworth, and Prudhoe.[1] He also received in 1438 the earl's position of Warden of the Eastern March. He continued his diplomatic work on the border, completing, in October 1461, a further year's truce with Scotland.[5] In 1465, with the elevation of Warwick's brother Montague to the earldom of Northumberland, the Percy estates that Ogle had received were transferred to Montague; Ogle was compensated with the Lordship of Redesdale and Harbottle Castle and other forfeited lands in Northumberland.[1] He was a regular, if partisan, member of the King's Bench commissions in Northumberland, being regularly appointed by the Nevilles, first Salisbury, then Warwick

Noted events in his life were:

• Appointment: High Sherrif, 1437.

General Notes: Wikipedia says,
Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormond, P.C. (1426 \endash 3 August 1515) was the youngest son of James Butler, 4th Earl of Ormond. He was attainted, but restored by Henry VII's first Parliament in November 1485, and the statutes made at Westminster, by Edward IV, which declared him and his brothers traitors, were abrogated.
Thomas Butler was the third son of James Butler, 4th Earl of Ormond, by his first wife, Joan de Beauchamp (d. 3 or 5 August 1430). He had two elder brothers, James Butler, 5th Earl of Ormond, and John Butler, 6th Earl of Ormond, as well as two sisters, Elizabeth Butler, who married John Talbot, 2nd Earl of Shrewsbury, and Anne Butler (d. 4 January 1435), who was contracted to marry Thomas FitzGerald, 7th Earl of Desmond, although the marriage appears not to have taken place.
Thomas Butler, as an Irish peer, should only have sat in the Irish Parliament. However, as a personal friend of Henry VII he was summoned to the English Parliament in November 1488 as "Thomas Ormond de Rochford chevaler". At this time he was already 8th Earl of Carrick and 7th Earl of Ormond,[3] having succeeded his elder brothers James Butler, 5th Earl of Ormond and John Butler, 6th Earl of Ormond, neither of whom left legitimate issue.

He was afterwards sworn of the Privy Council of England.

He was known as The Wool Earl, due to his enormous wealth. Besides being in the possession of major lands in the Irish counties of Kilkenny and Tipperary, he owned 72 manors in England, making him one of the richest subjects in the realm.[4]

In 1509, he was appointed Lord Chamberlain to Catherine of Aragon.[5] He held this post until 1512.

General Notes: Wikipedia says,
Edward was King of England from 4 March 1461 to 3 October 1470,[1] then again from 11 April 1471 until his death in 1483. He was a central figure in the Wars of the Roses, a series of civil wars in England fought between the Yorkist and Lancastrian factions between 1455 and 1487.
Edward inherited the Yorkist claim when his father, Richard, Duke of York, died at the Battle of Wakefield in December 1460. After defeating Lancastrian armies at Mortimer's Cross and Towton in early 1461, he deposed King Henry VI and took the throne. His marriage to Elizabeth Woodville in 1464 led to conflict with his chief advisor, Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, known as the "Kingmaker". In 1470, a revolt led by Warwick and Edward's brother George, Duke of Clarence, briefly re-installed Henry VI.
Edward fled to Flanders, where he gathered support and invaded England in March 1471; after victories at the battles of Barnet and Tewkesbury, he resumed the throne. Shortly afterwards, Henry VI was found dead in the Tower of London. Despite a continuing threat from Henry Tudor, the last Lancastrian claimant, Edward reigned in relative peace for the next twelve years.
When Edward died suddenly in April 1483, his minor son became King Edward V, with his father's brother, the Duke of Gloucester, as Lord Protector. In June, Gloucester seized the throne as Richard III after declaring his nephews illegitimate; they are generally supposed to have been murdered shortly afterwards. In 1485, he was killed at the Battle of Bosworth Field by Henry Tudor, who ruled as Henry VII, and married Edward IV's daughter, Elizabeth of York, thus uniting the two houses.

Edward had a relationship with Lady Elizabeth LUCY [120312]. Marriage status: unmarried.

General Notes: The Following INFORMATION on the Forsters and Foster comes from the "Genealogy of the Descendants of Roger Foster of Edreston, Northumberland. With Appendix", compiled by Alkman Henry's son Foster and published in London by Adam and Charles Black, 1897. It has a preface of ix pages and the body of the text runs to 181 pages including the index. There is listed information on a Generation of Forsters with XIX (19) sons of Thomas Forster b: ABT 1485 in of Etherstone, England who married Eliazbeth FEATHERSTONHAUGH b: ABT 1489 in Stanhope Hall, Durham, England. One of the Sons was Roger Forster who used the spelling FOSTER. Roger Foster m: Joan Hussey in 1540. ** This appears to be my Family line. Roger was 17 when he fled from Northumberland, as explained in a letter of Sir John Forster of Bamborough, dated 17 April 1590. This letter was written to Roger's grandson Thomas Foster of Hunsdon, afterwards Judge Sir Thomas Foster.
"COUSIN FORSTER - After righte heartie commendations unto you, ye shall understand I have received your letter wherein you desire to know or your pedigree, for that your grandfather, as ye have learned, descended out of the house of Etherstone, and to know whether he was one elder, second, or third, or fourth brother, and wherefore he fled the countrie of Northumberland, I assure you I can trowhlie [truly] satisfie you therein; for your grandfather, called Roger Foster, was my great uncle, and there were XIX brothers and he was the second brother.
