He was later senior tutor of the college (equivalent to head master) and Chancellor of Cambridge University. He was chaplain to Henry V and Henry VI. He was a mathematician and was the author of Tabulae Astronomicae. A book written in the late 1900's indicates the book was still in use at this time.

Court records show an order to arrest Sir Thomas for an assault on John de Loudham.
[T]he site on which the castle stands has been used in the Iron Age, Roman period and by the invading Saxons also used by the Normans, Tudors and also used in the Medieval Period. This is because its position on elevated ground provides clear views of the Welland Valley from a strong defensible location.
William the Conqueror ordered the construction of a wooden Motte and Bailey at Rockingham in the 11th century shortly after the Norman Invasion of Britain. Within three decades, William II replaced it with a stone castle. A stone keep was added to the large motte and the outer bailey was enclosed by a curtain wall. The castle was then used as a Royal retreat throughout the Norman and Plantagenet periods. Nearby Rockingham Forest was especially good for hunting wild boar and deer.
In 1270 Henry III strengthened the castle with the addition of a twin D-tower gatehouse. But less than a century later Edward III became the last monarch to visit the castle while it was possessed by The Crown.

[Cal. IPMs Vol 5 #215 p 115]

4. John de Holbrook, born 30 November 1289; heir to his mother, 1309; died circa 1316:
IPM: John de Holebrok: writ issued 12 October 10 Edward II: Suffolk: 15 November 10 Edward II: Holbrook manor; Tattingston manor; rent in Alton and Brantham; manor in Bentley; messuage and land in Sprouton; 20 acres of land and 4 acres of wood in Braunford; tenement called Frankisfee in Burstalle; 1 acre in Brende Wenham; messuage at Wassebrok; John his son aged 3 at Whitsun last is his heir [Cal.

5. John de Holbrook, born circa 1313; heir to his father, 1316; his wardship granted to Alice, Countess Marshal, and thence transferred to Margaret and Peter de Maulay [PROCAT SC 8/127/6345 dated circa 1324]
************************
It is this latest IPM which causes our major problem, for it names the heir in 1316 as being a third John de Holbrook, not Thomas de Holbrook, whom we know as the subsequent lord of Holbrook and the other estates named above. The existence of this third John is confirmed by the wardship suit which Mardi uncovered. Perhaps this is where the pedigree from the Plea Rolls comes into play.
In the suit of 6 Richard II at p 143 of Pedigrees from the Plea Rolls, Thomas de Holbrook is said to be son of "John de Holbrook ff Edward I" and grandson of Richard de Holbrook, knight. This would give us the following:
3. Sir John de Holbrook, d 1306; married Alice, died 1309; issue:
4a. John de Holbrook, 1289-1316; married Petronilla; issue:
5. John de Holbrook, born 1313; died without issue [perhaps he married the Margaret to whom Copinger refers as having "claimed a moiety of the manor of Colvile in dower" as widow of John de Holbrook, 1330, without citing the reference]
4b. Sir Thomas de Holbrook, succeeded to Colvile's manor, 1330, and presented to Rendlesham, 1332 [Copinger]; died 1360; left issue, who succeeded to Holbrook etc.

John de was born circa 1290 at Holton, County Suffolk, England. He was the son of Sir John de Holebrok and Alice (?). John married Petronella (?) at England. John is found in court records which show a complaint against him by Norman Chippying of an assault. Another record of 1312, shows a presentation of Arnold Lupi de Tilo to Rendlesham Church by King's gift, giving custody of John Holebrok, son and heir, John de Holebrok. It is quite possible that John and his father both died in the wars with Scotland. John departed this life on Monday, 12 October 1316 at England.

Andrew Roberts Lord, Holbrook and Allied Families, pages 3-4 - Sir John de Holbrok was considered a valiant soldier by his king, as he was summoned to defend the coast against the French on 30 August 1295, and six years later to defend his country against the Scots. We do not know the exact date of John's death but it must have been before 6 December 1306 for on that date his widow and two others held knight's fees in various parts of England, including one fee Freston and Holebrook, both of which are in the county Suffolk. The widow Alice must have been of noble birth as having been invited to the wedding of Elizabeth, daughter of King Edward II who married the Count of Flanders. On her death, she left a vast estate much of it in Suffolk. She died 8 December 1309.

On 16 June 1267, Sir Richard was granated free warren [a right to keep or hunt beasts and fowl such as hares, partridge and woodcock] at Tatingeston, Benetleye, Rushagh, and Foxhole, County Suffolk and at Senges, County Norwalk, England. He was also appointed custodian of the King's castles in twenty different counties and was appointed steward between the bridges of Oxford and Stamford on 16 November 1275, and one year later made escheator in those two counties. In Parliament at Westminister, on 29 September 1278, he was a witness to the homage of Alexander, King of Scotland. [This is an indication of the high esteem he was held in the eyes of King Edward I] During his lifetime, Sir Richard held many positions of trust including that of steward to the king to which he was appointed on 30 May 1285.1 Richard departed this life between 27 February 1291 and 1292 at England.
