    Notes:

    Excerpt from "Lineage of the Rogers Families - England": m. ab. 1270, Matilda (or Maud), dau. of Sir Warine (or Warren) de Ralegh of "nettlecombe'- in Somerset, descended from Winund de Ralegh, temp. of K. John (of the smae Ralegh, or Raleigh, family made famous some two centuries thereafter by Sir Walter Raleigh), by his wife, Johanna - called 'Jone,' dau. of Lord Botiler of 'Walis,' or Wales. He was Lord of Ashington-his principal residence, and Kilve (or Kehoe) in 1294, and then became a Knight; was summoned to do military service against the Welsh in 1295 and against the Scots in 1296-7-8 and 1300. He was Sheriff of Somerset, dorset & devon variously, for terms covering many yrs. during the period 1304-1316, the yr. of his death; and was frequently appointed Justice in Oyer & Terminer, for Somerset, Dorset, Devon & Cornwall, and was Conservator of the Peace in Somerset 1307-10. In 1312 he had custody of Devon & the King's Castle of Exeter; and in 1315 held custody over the Cos. of Somerset & Dorset, and of the castle of Shireborn; and the order of Escheat was in 1317. He was the prominent member of the Furneaux family: 'Gu., a bend betw. six crosses-crosslet et flory or.' Hs wife had arms assigned to her, and her paternal arms (a bend fusily) appear with the figure of a Knight in chain armor, carved on a tombstone at Ashington. His family worshiped at 'Athelney (Isle of) Abbey. Sir Matthew obtained license for a 'Fair' at Pury, which privilege afterward passed to his son Symon; and was one means of enriching the Furneaux family.
