[1][2][3] On his father's death in 1390, he inherited family estates at Chideock, More Crichel, and East Chelborough in Dorset and at Allowenshay and Kingston Pitney in Somerset.
All but East Chelborough were kept by his father-in-law, Sir Ivo Fitzwaryn, who had undertaken to support his daughter and her husband while under age, and not released for about nine years.
It is possible that his stepfather John Bathe MP, who was on good terms with Alice and her family, encouraged him to reach a settlement.
To all these landholdings, which made him a wealthy man, were added the whole patrimony of the Fitzwaryn family when his father-in-law died in 1414 leaving his wife sole heiress.
While there is no evidence that he served in the first expedition to France of King Henry V, there is a tradition that his death on 25 or 28 September 1415 was at the Siege of Harfleur.
