    • SIR JOHN MARMION, son and heir. In 1278 he was distrained for knighthood as holding a knight's fee in Sussex. On 2 November 1281 he was pardoned for a sum taken by his father from the Sheriff of Yorkshire during the disturbances of 1265. In 1284-85 he was returned as holding the manor of Quinton, co. Gloucester, of Philip Marmion (of Tamworth), who held it of the Earl of Leicester, who held in chief. On 16 April 1291 he was summoned for military service, to be at Norham on 3 June. On 5 May 1292 he had a grant to him and his heirs of free warren in his demesne lands in East Tanfield, Carthorpe, (Little) Langton, co. York, Winteringham, co. Lincoln, Luddington, Northants, Nether and Over Quinton, co. Gloucester, and Berwick, Winton and Pikehay, Sussex. On 8 June 1294 he was summoned to attend the King wherever he might be on urgent affairs, and on 14 June was excepted from service in Gascony. On 16 December 1295 he was summoned to be at Newcastle on 1 March following for military service against the Scots. In 1296 he did homage to the Archbishop of York for tenements in Ripon. On 26 January 1296/7 he was summoned to attend the Parliament at Salisbury on 24 February and on 15 May 1297 was summoned to be in London on 7 July for service overseas with the King. In the same year and in 1298, 1300-1, and 1306 he was again summoned for service against the Scots, and in 1303 was ordered to place himself with his forces under the command of the King's lieutenant in Scotland. He was elected a Knight of the shire for co. Lincoln, to be present at the Parliament at York on 25 May 1298. On 18 March 1298/9 he, as lord of Tanfield, agreed with Fountains Abbey to abide by the charter of Avice his grandmother with respect to the property held of him by the monks in Melmerby. In 1303 he was returned as having held of Robert de Tateshale 8 carucates in Hunmanby by the service of one knight's fee. On 2 July 1304 he agreed to alienate in mortmain to the Abbot and convent of Peterborough the manor of Lullyngton (Lutton), which he held by the service of 1/2 knight's fee. In the same year a perambulation was ordered to be made between his land and that of Alice de Lacy in Lincolnshire. On 23 July 1310 he had licence to alienate in mortmain a messuage, two bovates of land, and 44s. 4d. rent in Winteringharn and Beelsby for the maintenance of a chaplain to celebrate divine service daily in the chapel of St. Nicholas, Winteringham, for the souls of the grantor, Isabel his wife, of Alexander Peck, and their ancestors and successors. and 1322 he was again summoned for service against the Scots. He was summoned to Parliament from 23 September 1313 to 2 May 1322, by writs directed Johanni Marmyon or de Marmioun, whereby he is held to have become LORD MARMION. On 8 February 1313/4 John Marmion the elder, John Marmion the younger, and others were the subject of complaint by the Abbot of Fountains for various trespasses and assaults. On 24 September 1314 he was granted a licence to crenellate his dwelling-place called 'Lermitage' in his wood of Tanfield, and on 26 September 1317 a weekly market and a yearly fair at his manor of Winteringham, with free warren in his demesne lands in Willingham. On 18 June 1320 he was appointed a conservator of the peace in the county of Lincoln. He was ordered to abstain from attending Thomas, Earl of Lancaster's meeting of 'good peers' at Doncaster on 29 November 1321; and to appear with his forces at Coventry, 28 February 1321/2, for the purpose of marching against the Earl's adherents.

      He married Isabel (l). He died before 7 May 1322. [Complete Peerage VIII:518-20, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

      (l) This appears from his foundation of the Winteringham chantry, and it is possible that she was the daughter of Alexander Peck, but for this there is no sufficient evidence available. 1622
