释义 |
LineageThe 15th century Vaughan family, gentry of Bredwardine, Tretower and Hergest, were prominent in eastern Wales and the Herefordshire borderland.
The Vaughans' pedigree often traces descent through Walter Sais (also Seys)[1] to Moreiddig Warwyn.[3][13] While the Vaughan coat of arms, three boys’ heads with a snake entwined about their necks, originated with Moreiddig Warwyn,[5] Vaughan family ancestry cannot be relied upon with confidence prior to the mid 14th century.[6] MarriageVaughan married Gwladys ferch Dafydd Gam, daughter of Dafydd Gam, with whom he later fought in the Battle of Agincourt in 1415.[1] IssueIn contrast to Gwladys and Roger's allegiance to the House of Lancaster,[7] their three sons were staunch Yorkists during the Wars of the Roses. The brothers would fight with their Herbert half-brothers during the Battle of Edgecote Moor in 1469. Beyond their political pursuits, the Bredwardine and Hergest Vaughans supported Welsh poets. They took residence at the main Vaughan holdings of Bredwardine, Hergest, and Tretower, respectively.[1]
There are other children attributed to this union: John Vaughan of Dursley, William Vaughan of Clifford and three more daughters not specifically identified.[8] Battle of AgincourtRoger, his father-in-law Dafydd Gam and his recently married son, Roger, had been part of the Welsh contingent that fought with Henry V of England, popularly designated Harry of Monmouth, at the Battle of Agincourt on 25 October 1415. Henry's forces faced formidable odds: illness and impediments in the form of destroyed bridges, well-guarded river crossings, fortification and greatly hindered access to cattle as a means of food by the French. Henry's extremely loyal troops pushed on in spite of illness, starvation and fatigue. Upon hearing that his army would be outnumbered, Henry sent Roger's father-in-law Dafydd Gam to observe the size and motion of the French troops. Observing that they would be significantly outnumbered, and not wanting to daunt Henry or his kinmen, Dafydd's response upon his return was that there were "enough to be killed, enough to be taken prisoners and enough to be run away."[2] Sixteen French knights who had taken a solemn oath to do what was necessary to seize Henry V, succeeding in unhorsing the king, who risked certain death at the hands of the knights. Dayfdd called to his Brecon kinsmen, including both Roger Vaughans, William ap Thomas and William Lloyd. They managed to bring down each of the sixteen knights. Henry V's valiant fight and his own exposure to danger in order to protect his injured brother, Humphrey of Lancaster, 1st Duke of Gloucester, inspired and emboldened the English who met the French forces decidedly, killing or capturing their leaders, resulting in confusion and flight.[2] While Henry V would meet with success in this battle, Dafydd, the elder Roger Vaughan and William Lloyd were mortally wounded.[1][2] Legends appeared in the 16th century claiming that[10] upon saving the life of Henry V at the expense of their own lives, both men were knighted by the king on the battlefield before they died.[2][3] However, there is no contemporary validation that the legends are true.[10] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 {{cite web | url=http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/10.1093/ref:odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-48656 | title=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography - Vaughan Family (per. c.1400–c.1504), gentry | format=Online Subscription Service | author=Griffiths, R | publisher=Oxford University Press 2011 | date=2004–11 | accessdate=2011-02-08 |doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/48656}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Vaughan, Roger, Of Bredwardine}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 {{cite book | title=The Heroines of Welsh History: Or Memoirs Of The Celebrated Women Of Wales | author=Prichard, T.
