Roger Tempest Esq. of Broughton,2 son of John Tempest and Agnes BANASTER, was born in 1471 and died before Nov 1537. General Notes: The origins of the Tempest family can be traced back to Roger Tempest in 1098. The family have been established in the area for 900 years and the lineage now runs through thirty one generations to the present day. Stephen Tempest built the present Broughton Hall in 1597. This was originally of Elizabethan architecture later extended in the eighteenth and nineteenth century into the form we see today. The original Hall which was closer to the river was surrounded by a moat and was demolished on completion of the new hall. The Hall was requisitioned by Cromwell during the Civil War in around 1644 and this was the only period during which the building was not occupied by the Tempest family. Robert Tempest was killed in a skirmish with Cromwell's troops on the front lawn. BLG1952 reports that Roger was ward of Henry, Lord Clifford (presumably the 10th Lord Clifford) In October, 1492, Henry and Thomas Tempest sued Roger Tempest for trespass and damage to their houses and closes in Brough-ton, and the following year he sued them for the like (De Banco Ro: 922, Mich. 8 Henry vij, mm.20 & 20d & Ro: 928, m. 303d, Ro: 930, m.366d etc.). On 4 February, 1493-4, he wit-nessed at Skipton a grant from Henry Lord Clifford to Thomas de Marton of land etc: in West Marton (Dodsw: MSS, vol. 155, fol. 125).

York (Add MSS. 32,104, fol. 225). In 1497, James Welles of Gosberkirke, co. Lincoln, en-feoffed George Lord Strange, John Townley, Richard Tempest and Roger Tempest of Bro'ton etc: of all his lands in Rimmington, co York (Dodsw: MSS. vol. 155, fol. 165d). On 30 September 1499, Roger Tempest rendered his military suit at Skipton Castle (Ibid: vol. 83, fol. 116). In September 1498, he bound himself in 20 marks to William Yorke (De Banco Ro: 976, Easter, 21 Henry vij, m.491d). In May, 1502, Henry Lord Clifford was bound in £1000 to Roger Tempest, esq: to abide the arbitration as to certain pasture rights he clai-med in Tempest's land in the "Cowpasture" of Broughton Sleyghts-in-Craven and as to overthrowing Roger's fences (Ibid: Ro: 978, m.622, & Ro. 986, m.447). In October, 1502, Lord Clifford sued him for spreading "false news and lies of him at Skipton", and prosecuted him for breaking closes, at Thurlby, Styrton, Elsawe & Crokeryse (Ro: 962, mm.242d & 297). In 1502, Sir Robert Clifford, kt, claimed £40 debt of Roger (Ib. m.48 etc.) and in 1503, Roger Tempest claimed £40 from Ralph Catterall of Little Mitten (Ib: m.298d).

In October 1504, Henry Lord Clifford was bound to the Archbishop of York etc: in £1000 to keep the peace by himself and servants towards Roger Tempest of Broghton (Ib. Ro: 974, m.415).

Ro: 973, m.371), the case being renewed October 1505 (Ro: 974, m. 295d). The disputes over the pasturage in Bro'ton continued till 1507 (Ro: 986, m.447), no judgement appearing (E.B.T.).

In 1511, Staveley sued him for £40, declaring the lead was undelivered, which Tempest denied (Common Ro: Mich: 1 Henry viii, m.189d, and Easter, 3 Henry viii, m.422). In 1512, Roger Tempest was one of the Commissioners for the Subsidy, W.R. Yorks, granted 4 February, 3 Henry viii (Rot: Parl: vol. vj, p.xxxix). In October, 1514, he sued Sir Richard Tempest, knt, Nicholas Tempest, gent., Nicholas Ellis, yeoman, and Richard Banaster, gent., for wrongful caption of his cattle at Bro'ton (Common Ro: 1008, Mich. 6 Henry viij, m.412). Early in 1515, the case continued, and Sir Richard Tempest was accused of taking 4 bullocks and 15 heifers worth 100s from the said Roger, when he, as bailiff of the Liberty of Craven went to Broughton the 15 January, 6 Henry viij, to return the other beasts, while Roger was countercharged for assembling at Marton the same day, with John Banaster of Bro'ton, Richard and James Oxynhirde, George Marton and 47 others from Broughton, Skipton, East and West Marton, and rescued his cattle, wounding Robert Silverwood, Sir Richard's servant (Ib: No. 1009, Hilary, 6 Henry viij, m.549). In June, 1515, Roger Tempest again sued Sir Richard and Nicholas Tempest, Nicholas Ellys and Richard Banaster this time for caption of 30 oxen and 24 cows worth xxli, which he stated they removed on Tuesday, 2 October, 1514, from the Estfields in Broughton. In defence, Sir Richard and the others declare that they acted as bailiffs of Thomas Tempest who, in right of his wife Margaret, claimed xivli from Roger Tempest by reason as follows. One Sir Richard Tempest, knt, being seized of two messuages, 40 acres of land, 2a of meadow, 20 acres of pasture in Broughton-in-Craven and of the moiety of the manor of Broughton, with appurtenances, as parcel of his demesne as of fee and holding the same of Lord Clifford as of Skipton castle fee by homage and fealty and a scutage of xls to the king with xs more or less etc. gave the same half manor and lands etc: to his son Roger Tempest to hold to him and his heirs male, rendering to the said Sir Richard Tempest and his heirs for ever, xls yearly at Midsummer. And this Roger Tempest was so seized of the said premises. After the death of the grantor Sir Richard, the rent and reversion of the half manor etc: descended to one Sir Thomas Tempest, father of the said Margaret the wife of said Thomas Tempest as consanguinous and heir of the said grantor, viz brother of Richard son of John, son of Peter, son and heir of the said Sir Richard the grantor. And the said Roger Tempest the grantee, dying, the moiety of the manor with its messuages etc: descended to the plaintiff Roger Tempest as lawful heir male, viz: son of John, son of William, son of Roger, the aforesaid son of Sir Richard the grantor, and Roger is now seized of the premises in demesne as of fee by virtue of the sd grant. The defendants show that the plaintiff Roger paid the rent of xls yearly to Sir Thomas Tempest, the father of Margaret until his death in July 1507, from which time he has been in arrear and that they as bailiffs for the said Margaret seized the cattle to discharge the debt of xixli.
