1260
Thomas Dod was the son of Stephen
Dod of Edge (DOD00025) and may have been born in or
about 1260.
In the Inquisition Post Mortem
taken on 16 January 1328 of Bartholemew de Badelesmere,
a knight's fee at Wytherlinge was held by Thomas
Dod and his parceners. (Calendar
of Inquisitions Post Mortem, Volume 7, (Edward III, 1327 to 1336), 104 (page
93)). Wytherlinge,
historically written as Wytherlinge or Wytherling, is a historical manor location situated in the
parish of Molash, which sits within the Ashford district of Kent. The location
suggests that this is a different Thomas Dod, but it coincides with our Thomas
Dod. He may therefore have had left Cheshire.
In
1339 on the Inquisition Post
Mortem after the death of Giles de Badelesmere Wytherlinge
was held by Robert Dod and his parceners (Calendar
of Inquisitions Post Mortem, Volume 8, (Edward
IIII, 1336 to 1347), Folios 185 (pages 136 and 145)).
Robert was presumably the son of Thomas Dod.
1330
Thomas Dod may have died in or
about 1330.
