[Complete Peerage VII:10-11 Note B]

------------------------

Henry Hussey, son of Henry Hussey and Katherine FitzAllen Hussey, was born about 1320. At the death of his brother, Mark Hussey, about 1344, Henry Hussey was named as the recipient of his brother's estate, as a temporary arrangement, but this temporary arrangement lasted for several centuries despite the efforts of the rightful heir, Henry Hussey when he obtained his majority and despite the efforts of his descendants for several generations afterwards.

He was mentioned in an inquisition held in 1346 at Risley, Gloucestershire in which he was named as an "heir in tail" to Saperton manor and Brode Rusendene manor. According to "Complete Peerage," Henry Hussey "after Mark's death on October 16, 1347, had license to settle the manor of Moreton, Berkshire and a moeity of the manors of Rissington and Saperton, Gloucestershire on himself for life, with remainder to Henry, his son, in tail; to Richard, his son; in tail and then to his heirs begotten of Katherine, his wife, in perpetuity, remainder to Elizabeth, his daughter, in tail and to John de Huntingfield, his son-in-law who married Elizabeth. The fines following this license are mentioned in the inquisitions upon Henry Husee, Lord Husee, where Henry, son of Mark, is returned as heir; and it is further recited that Standen manor, counties Berkshire and Wiltshire; Freefolk manor, Hampshire; Hascombe manor, Surrey; Harting manor, Sussex and the Husee moeity of Pulburough, Sussex were also settled to the exclusion of Henry, son of Mark. On the death of Walter de L'Isle in 1352 it was found that he held l/2 of Pulburough manor jointly with his wife, Joan, remainder to Sir Henry Husee for life and his son, Henry Husee, and the heirs of his
body."

Henry Hussey was married about 1348 to Elizabeth de Bohun, daughter of John de Bohun "in the 21st year of the reign of King Edward III." On September 23, 1349 Henry Hussey received Moreton manor, Berkshire. He was remarried about 1360, wife's name Ankaret. When Richard Hussey, his brother, died in 1361 holding Standen manor, Berkshire and Wiltshire, and Tidworth manor, Wiltshire, these properties were also conveyed to Henry Hussey.

On July 10, 1367 Sir Henry Hussey was pardoned by the king "for failure to appear before Him to satisfy Him regarding the ransom due on account of a dispute over property in Kent with Henry, son of Sir Mark Hussee, whereof he was convicted at an assize summoned before them," according to "Patent Rolls." Sir Henry Hussey had surrendered to Marshalsea Prison, London, and Henry Hussey obtained the damages awarded by the assize. On July 11, 1367 a pardon was granted "to Sir Henry Hussey of the forfeiture of all his goods because of his outlawry."

On February 10, 1368 Henry Hussey and Ankaret Hussey deeded Moreton manor to Sir Thomas Hungerford, according to "Patent Rolls." The manor reverted to the Hussey family later and was in the hands of Sir Reynold Bray in 1401, according to "History of Berkshire."

On June 30, 1379 Sir Henry Hussey of Sussex "charged John Purdieu for trespass," according to "Patent Rolls." On February 15, 1380 it was recorded in "Patent Rolls" that Sir Henry Hussey and others "paid damages and a fine to the king for being disseisors [trespassers] of tenements in Chiddingfold, Surrey. Henry Hussey died in 1383.

At an inquisition taken at Saperton, Wiltshire October 16, 1383 it was determined: "Sir Henry Huse died seised, in his demesne as of fee, of a moiety of Saperton manor, held of the king as a quarter of a knight's fee, worth 53s.6d yearly. He also held of the king, by a rent of 12d. to the escheator, two acres of land in Brode Rusyndon, worth nothing beyond that rent. Sir Henry died on Tuesday after St. Bartholomew's Day last. Henry, his son and heir, was 21 and more on the Feast of All Souls (November 2) last."

Ankaret Hussey was remarried before May 19, 1384 to Andrew Hake. It was recorded in "Patent Rolls" in 1384 that
"a fine of 40 pounds due from Ankeretta, late the wife of Sir Henry Husy of Sussex, for marrying without license, granted to Thomas atte Lee, the king's esquire." They received the king's pardon April 20, 1385. She died before November 19, 1389, according to "History of Berkshire." In an inquisition held at Saperton, Wiltshire in 1389 it was recorded that "Ankaret, widow of Henry Husee senior died on St. Martin's Day. Sir Henry Husee, her son and heir, was aged 27."

It is believed that no children were born to Henry Hussey and Elizabeth de Bohun Hussey.

Children born to Henry Hussey and Ankaret Hussey include:
- Henry Hussey born in 1362

  Events

• Manorial Estate, 1349-1383, Harting Manor, Harting, Petersfield, West Sussex, GU31, GB. ³ Between 1156 and 1166 William, Earl of Arundel, gave to Henry Husee 2 knights' fees which were evidently in Harting, and were subsequently held of the honor of Arundel. On the death of Hugh d'Aubigny, last Earl of Arundel of his line, in 1243 the overlordship of Harting passed to his eldest sister Maud and her husband Robert de Tateshall, of whose son Robert the manor was held in 1253. His grandson Robert in 1303 inherited 3 knights' fees in Harting and Chithurst held by Henry Husee, and in 1341 these fees were held of Alice, widow of William de Bernake, who was daughter of the eldest of Robert's coheiresses. By 1409, however, Harting manor was said to be held of the Earl of Arundel as of his manor of Walderton, and it was still held of that manor in 1555.

Henry Husee, first lord of Harting, or his son Henry, had remission of Danegeld in Sussex in 1154. The younger Henry founded a leper hospital at Harting and also (before 1169) the Abbey of Durford. He is said to have died about 1174 in the Holy Land. A third Henry Husee, in 1190-6, confirmed gifts to Durford Abbey made by his father, and in 1194 he made an agreement with the Abbot of Séez about the advowson of the church of Harting. Land in Sussex given to him by the king was taken away in 1205, but in 1208 the patronage of the Abbey of Durford was restored to him, as well as the land of his brother Hubert. He died about 1213, when his son Henry paid 100 marks for his patrimony in Wiltshire. This Henry was in arms against the king in 1216 but returned to his allegiance in 1217, and died before 1 April 1235. He was succeeded by a son Matthew, called his heir, though there had been an elder son Henry who died before his father, leaving a daughter Maud, who in 1239 unsuccessfully sued Matthew for 3 knights' fees in Harting. Matthew was in possession in 1242, and in June 1252 he obtained a grant of free warren in his manor of Harting. He died early in 1253, and his young son Henry succeeded. At the instance of Prince Edward the king granted licence to Henry Husee in 1266 to build a crenellated house at Harting, inclosing it with a dyke and a wall of stone. In 1268 Maud, mentioned above, with her husband William Paynel confirmed Harting manor to Henry. He obtained in 1271 a grant of a weekly market on Wednesday at Harting and a yearly fair there on the eve, day, and morrow of SS. Simon and Jude, and a grant of free warren there. He died in 1290, when Henry his son, afterwards Lord Husee, succeeded. He was visited at Harting in September 1302 by Edward I. He died in 1332, when seisin of his land was given to his son Henry, with whose consent a third of the manor of Harting was assigned as part of the dower of Isabel, widow of Sir Henry. A settlement of the manor was made in 1347 upon Sir Henry for life, with remainder to his younger son Henry and his wife Elizabeth daughter of John de Bohun of Midhurst and their issue, Mark the eldest son of Sir Henry having died in 1346, leaving an infant son Henry. Sir Henry Husee died in 1349 and Harting manor passed under the settlement to his son Henry, a third of the manor being assigned as dower to Katherine widow of Sir Henry, and a very detailed account exists of her share. She had all the chambers near and over the west door and a garden near these rooms to the west, all the chambers near and over the east gate, except the prison, the gates being held in common, and the right to use Henry's bakery and kitchen until he should build another for her near the west gate. Katherine was also to enjoy parts of several gardens, a third of two dovecotes, the part of the park to the north of the town called Nether Park, a third of the woods and warrens and of the yearly fairs. The well called Typut was held in common.

Henry's land was extended for debt in 1370, and the inquisition then taken gives a detailed account of his part of the manor. The land was divided into that above the down and that below the down. Sir Henry Husee died in 1383, and the manor passed to his son Henry, then aged 22. Ankaretta widow of Sir Henry married as a second husband Sir Andrew Hake, and she had a third of the manor as dower. On her death in 1389 this passed to Sir Henry Husee. Just before her death Sir Andrew and Ankaretta were sued by Henry son of Mark Husee, mentioned above, for a third of the manor, and in 1393 this Henry sued Sir Henry Husee for the same. He claimed it under the grant made by William and Maud Paynel to Henry Husee in 1268. He was not successful in his claim to the manor, but he seems to have obtained from Henry an annuity of 40 marks from Harting in perpetuity. On the death of Sir Henry Husee in 1409 Harting manor was delivered to his widow Margaret, who had held it jointly with him. She complained in 1412 that her son Sir Henry Husee came to Harting manor when she was in the parish church at High Mass on the feast of St. Lawrence, and stole a chest of muniments. She married before 1412 Richard Biterley, with whom she was at that date holding a third of Harting manor and an annuity from the other two-thirds. Sir Henry in 1430 obtained a confirmation of the grant of free warren made to Matthew Husee his ancestor. He settled Harting in 1434 upon Constance his wife for life, with remainder in tail male to his sons Henry and Nicholas. He died on 30 January 1449'9650, when it was said that he held no land in Sussex, as he had granted all his estate to trustees in 1434. His son and successor Sir Henry, in May 1451, with the trustees, granted the demesne land of the manor for Sir Henry's life to John Husee, in satisfaction of the annuity of 40 marks from the manor. In 1453 he settled the manor upon himself in fee tail with remainder to his brother Nicholas in tail. He again conveyed the manor to trustees in July 1460 and died without issue soon after. His trustees leased the manor in August 1464 to John, Earl of Worcester, for his life. The earl shortly after assigned the lease to Nicholas Husee, reserving to himself the two parks, Up Park and Down Park, and the site of the manor when he should choose to visit it; during these visits, Nicholas Husee was to have two rooms in the manor-house. Nicholas Husee obtained a pardon in 1467 for all debts to the king, incurred while he served the offices of buyer, receiver, and keeper of victuals and equipment provided for the defence of Calais, the lieutenancy of the castle of Guynes, and sheriff of Surrey and Sussex. Before July of the following year he had been outlawed for treason and his lands forfeited, but he evidently again obtained pardon, for on his death in 1472 he held the manor of Harting. His heirs were his daughters Constance aged 12, and Catherine aged 10. Constance married firstly Henry Lovell and afterwards Sir Roger Lewkenor, and Catherine married Reynold Bray.

In 1478 Thomas Husee sued Sir Roger Lewkenor, Thomas Hoo, and Thomas Bassett for the manor of Harting. Thomas claimed it as great-grandson of the Henry son of Mark Husee, the claimant in 1389, and recovered the manor against Sir Roger Lewkenor, but immediately took part in a conveyance of the manor to trustees to the use of the coheirs of Nicholas Husee, and the manor was divided between them. Reynold Bray and Catherine had land held by certain tenants in East Harting, land in Rogate, Wenham, and Chalecroft in Harting with 15s. 2½d. from the Up Park, and the hamlet of West Harting, except Bakersholt, Ladyholt, and Mereland. The rest of the manor was assigned to Henry Lovell and Constance, the hundred of Dumpford, the wood called Harting Combe and the fair and advowson being held jointly. From this time the manor became divided into West, East, and South Harting.

By Henry Lovell Constance had two daughters, Elizabeth and Agnes. Agnes married John Empson, and Elizabeth married firstly Sir Edward Bray, and afterwards, before 9 February 1509, Sir Anthony Windsor, brother of Andrew, Lord Windsor, by whom she had two children Henry and Constance.

Catherine and Reynold Bray had no children, but Reynold appears to have acquired some title to the manor of West Harting and land in Harting, in his own right. This he left by will to his nephew Edmund Bray in tail male, with contingent remainder to his niece Margery wife of William, Lord Sandes, in fee tail.
