Sir Lewis de Robessart (c.1390-1430), KG, also known as Sir Louis Robessart or Robesart or Robersart or Robsart, was a knight in the service of King Henry V. He fought at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415. He acquired the title of Baron Bourchier by right of his wife Elizabeth Bourchier, 4th Baroness Bourchier, and died in battle against the French during the Hundred Years' War. In 1415 he was given the manor of Mapelhurst in Kent and an annuity. For his service, the king later granted him the manor of Postedhalle in Norfolk, one of the properties forfeited by the disgraced Sir John Oldcastle. In 1417 he obtained "letters of denization", entitling him to settle in England and acquire property there. By 1422 he had purchased the manors of Redenhall, Aldeburgh, Denton, Mendham and Pulham. Lewis and his elder brother Jean were the grandsons of Sir Thierry de Robessart, seigneur de d’Escaillon, whose family originated from Hainault, where Lewis was born. Later Sir John Robessart (d.1450) was a Knight of the Garter. |
