- Biography
The township of "Barkisland is not mentioned in Domesday Book by name. The oldest deed, (says Watson) in my possession relating to it, is an agreement in 1288, between Thomas de Thorneton and Henry do llisheworthe, whereby the former conveyed to the latter the fourth part of all the vill of Barkisland, if he did not repay to the said Henry, in six years, three marks and forty pence, which he had borrowed of him ; this clearly indicates that the land was not then in a very improved state. In a few years after, it appear? this Henry was possessed of a still greater part of the township, for Hugh, son of John de Ealand, hy deed dated at EUand, a. b. 1306, quit claimed to Thomas de Langfeld, and Ellen his wife, Jordan de Insula, and Isahel his wife, John de Sayvill, and Margery his wife, his claim in the yearly payment of ten marks for the moiety of the vill of Barkisland, which Henry de Rishworth, father of the said Ellen, Isahel, and Margery was bound to pay him. This is the commencement of the Savile's title to the manor, who by this match, became possessed of part, and subsequently lords of the whole. Between the 3rd and 6th of Edward II. William de Langfeld, and Agnes his wife, levied a fine of a third part of the manors of Rishworth, Barkisland, Bothomley, and Scamonden : if he die without heir, remainder to the right heirs of the said William, with remainder over to Gilbert de laLegh, and his heirs. This shews what manors Henry de Rishworth died possessed of, and that they were equally divided among his three daughters, who were his coheiresses."[1][2]
In 1284, "John s. Jordan de Shypedene mortus est (is dead), the lands seized by the lord. Henry de Risseworth a juror at Halifax" and in 1285, "Henry de Risseworth was foreman juror at 'Alifax' turn."[3]
