scotsborough.jpg - 43742 Bytes A descendant of this branch (#20 below) went on to found the Herefordshire branch of the family.

Thomas, son of Peter, the son of Stephen Perrot of Popton, the 5th of the Pembrokeshire Perrots, was the first of the Scotsborough line, and was mayor of Tenby in 1413.

From Barnwell: "He may have acquired the Scotsborough estate by marriage; but though whom is not mentioned in any genealogy. Among the records of the corporation of Tenby is a deed of John Chepman to Thomas Perrot and Alicia his wife; her name being included in the deed, as if a joint possessor of the estate with her husband. This Alice, therefore, may have been the heiress of the estate, through whom it descended to the Perrots. The document is dated 3 Henry V [1415]."

The deed conveys 7 acres and 3 perches [1 perch = 16.5 ft] of land, within the liberty of Tenby, consisting of 2 parcels. Drawing: The ruins of Scotsborough

Based primarily on:

  • Perrot notes, or some account of the various branches of the Perrott family, Edward Lowry Barnwell, (London: J. Russell Smith, 1867)
  • Nichols, John Gough. 1870. Perrott Notes, In: The Herald and Genealogist. Volume the Fifth. J.G. Nichols and R.C. Nichols, Printers to the Society of Antiquaries, 25, Parliament Street, Westminster, London. Pp 369-376.
  • A Seventeenth-century pedigree roll from the Herefordshire, by by R.K. Turvey. (The National Library of Wales Journal, 30: 373-404. 1999)

Where the sources conflict, Turvey prevails over Barnwell on these web pages.
