This is confirmed by the charge of 56 knights fee in 1235/36 for the whole moiety, and in 1246 the knights fee was broken down into two parts, 28 for the half received from the Braose moiety and 28 from the Tracy moiety. Henry had children: Henry & Eve.2 Henry departed this life in 1274 in Devonshire, England, at the barony of Barnestable.3
