Note:
Sir Thomas de Boketon received his title in his infancy. When Prince
Edward set forth on the last crusade of the Holy War in 1270, Sir John de
Grene de Boketon, Thomas' father, accompanied the prince into battle.
During this crusade, the prince and Sir John became close friends until
Sir John died in Palestine. When Prince Edward became King Edward I in
1272, he bestowed the title of Lord on the infant child, Thomas, in honor
of the gallant service and friendship of his father, John. Following the
death of Lord Walter de Greene, the properties John de Greene would have
inherited were held in trust by William de Nutricilla, Abbot of St.
Wondergisile until Thomas reached legal age.

catalogue of knights who accompanied King Edward I in the first
expedition against the Scots in 1294. He was living in 1319 according to
the role of the 13th year of Edward II.
