Sir Richard de Beauchamp

On this date in our family history . . . the 30th day of April . . . in the year 1439 . . . Sir Richard de Beauchamp dies in the Castle of Rouen in Normandy, France . . . this Sir Richard, a Knight of the Garter, is currently believed to be a 17th great-grandpa of our Josephine . . . who is a 2nd great-grandma of the Keeper of this family history blog . . .

Tirant Lo Blanch A Study of Its Authorship, Principal Sources and Historical Setting By Joseph Anthony Vaeth: "his work Let us here give a brief account of the career of Richard de Beauchamp Upon his father"

"ments Shortly after his return he was sent to the town of Calais and made Captain of that place Longing for a little excitement he made up a tournament of his own Three days in succession mounted on his caparisoned steed he went out on the field and each day he returned victorious Later he was sent as ambassador to Constance in Germany to attend the well known Council of Constance There he was challenged by some great duke who was slain in the encounter The German emperor expressed his admiration for him by saying that no Christian prince hath such another knight for Wisdom Nurture and Manhood that if all courtesy were lost yet it might be found again in him l His principal military activities were in the war against the French In 1416 he was s"

The Handbook to English Heraldry By Charles Boutell, Arthur Charles Fox-Davies: "Seal of Sir RICHAKD DK BEAUCHAMF KG Fifth Earl of WARWICK died AD 1439 No 448 See pages 2o8 321 "

"The Earl himself died in 1369 A second Beauchamp Seal is also represented in the Frontispiece This is the Seal of RICHARD DE BEAUCHAMP KG fifth Earl of WARWICK who died in the year 1439 The Heraldry in this example is particularly interesting The Shield charged with Newburgh and Beauchamp quarterly is couchee from the helm of the Earl which is en signed with his coronet and crest and on either side is a bear with a ragged staff the famous Badges of the BEAU CHAMPS No 448 see Frontispiece The Inscription is SIGILL RIC DE BELLO CAMPO COMIT WARWICII The Seal of Richard de Beauchamp Earl of Warwick see pages 223 and 224 III In GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE Heraldry is always a "

Penny Cyclopaedia of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge By Charles Knight: "Text not available"

The Gentleman's Magazine: "that as soon as one had been discharged another was ready to be affixed And yet four centuries had to drag their long length away before a Whitworth and an Armstrong would arise to bring to perfection the Beauchamp gun This great Earl who died in his castle at Rouen in the year 1439 was buried in his own Beauchamp chapel at Warwick The remarkable resemblance of the face of his noble monumental effigy to his features as they are represented in this sketch at the siege of Rouen is too decided not to attract attention If we remember right our army served throughout the Crimean campaigns "

An attempt to discriminate the styles of English architecture, from the Conquest to the Reformation. Preceded by a sketch of the Grecian and Roman orders, with notices of nearly five hundred English buildings [and an Appendix]. By Thomas Rickman, John Henry Parker: "February 1437 and the chapel was consecrated in 1442C AD 1439 The Beauchamp Chapel at Warwick begun and also the tomb of Richard de Beauchamp Earl of Warwick by whose last will they were erected The contract entered into in this year for the building of this chapel in accordance with the will of the founder is reprinted from Dugdale"

Arms and Armour in Antiquity and the Middle Ages Also a Descriptive Notice of Modern Weapons By Paul Lacombe, Joseph Paul Lacombe: "in Sussex The typical example of the period is the truly noble bronze effigy of Richard Beauchamp KG Earl of Warwick in the Beauchamp Chapel at Warwick The earl died in 1439 and the effigy finely engraved by Stothard was executed about 1454 The head resting on the crested helm is bare the breast plate is reinforced as well as the shoulder guards the pauldrons have low upright neck defences or passe gardes the coudieres are large and of the same form and size on both arms there are five taces showing a skirt of mail beneath them and besides two large tuilles there are two smaller ones or tuillettes For some notices of the archers of England with a representation of a small group of them in action under the standard of Ear"
