      It is, however, with his brother Richard, who resumed his paternal name of
      Basset, and was seated at Welclen in Northamptonshire, that we have here to do.
      Fifth in descent from him was another Richard, who was summoned to parliament
      in 1299, and served two campaigns in the wars of Scotland, f first iri the
      retinue of Adomar de Valence in 1305, and again in 1314, when he fell at the
      battle of Stirling. Little or nothing is recorded of the four Barons Basset that
      succeeded him ; the last died s. p. in 1408.
