Adam de Brumpton (died 1274).
Evidence
from Bridgeman:
Walter de Whitfield was assessed to a scutage in 1214; but within two years of that time it is evident that his step son, Adam de Brimpton, had succeeded to his maternal inheritance, and was in rebellion against King John. A writ-close of 15th September, 1216, requires the Sheriff of Salop and Staffordshire to give Adam de Brimpton's lands to his brother John, seeing that Adam was with the King's enemies. On 4th November, 1217, however, a writ of King Henry III. orders the Sheriff to re-invest Adam de Brimpton with his lands, he having returned to his fealty. At the assizes of 1221 Adam de Brimton was one of the knightly jurors who tried cases of grand assize; and in 1229–30 he was engaged in the King's foreign wars, and had letters of protection whilst serving in Gascony.
