Note: STEPHEN DE MEINILL the Third, son and heir. He was under age on 9 March 
1218/9, when Hugh de Baliol was retaining possession of the land formerly belonging 
to Robert de Meinill by reason of having the custody of the heir, though repeatedly 
ordered to surrender it to the Archbishop of Canterbury. He appears to have come of 
age between October 1224 and February 1225/6. In 1226 his presentee was instituted 
to the church of Lowthorpe, the advowson of which he held by reason of the custody 
of the land and heir of Walter de Louthorp; and in 1227 an ordination concerning the 
church of Rudby was made by the Archbishop of York with his assent. In 1229 he was 
pardoned the scutage for 5 knights' fees which he held of the archbishopric of 
Canterbury, as the see was then void. In the same year he quitclaimed to the Abbot of 
Fountains his right in two fisheries in Eston, and he granted lands to Byland Abbey in 
1230. He quitclaimed to Stephen de Segrave his right in lands in Cold Overton, co. 
Leicester, circa 1237. In 1241, through the default of Adam de Hilton, he was unable 
to reply at the exchequer for the tax of a thirtieth from the fees of the archbishopric of 
Canterbury in co. York. In 1251 it was found that he had not disseised the Prior of 
Guisborough of land in Eston. In 1257 he granted to the Abbot of Fountains two 
carucates of land in Aldwark, to hold of him in pure and perpetual alms. On 24 
December 1263 he was among those to whom the keeping of the Northern counties 
was committed; and on 10 July 1264 and again during August he had a safe conduct 
with others for coming to the King with his household, horses, harness, and goods. In 
1268 he was a party to a fine with Geoffrey, prior of Bridlington, whose right he 
recognised to a moiety of a knight's fee in Bridlington, he and his heirs being admitted 
to the benefits of the church thereof. He granted to the priory of Healaugh Park a 
yearly rent of three marks from three carucates of land in Hutton Rudby, of his fee, in 
exchange for six bovates of land in Middleton. The name of his wife is unknown. He 
died before 16 July 1269. [Complete Peerage VIII:623-4, (transcribed by Dave
