11 Sir Gilbert Umfraville, originally uploaded by ValiantKnight.

Gilbert de Umfraville (1390-1421),

He fought on the Scottish border and in France under his warlike uncle, Sir Robert de Umfraville (died 1436). Although not related in blood he appears to have inherited the estates in Lincolnshire of the ,Kyme family and he was generally known as the Earl of Kyme, though the title was never properly conferred upon him.

In 1415 he fought at the Battle of Agincourt; he was afterwards sent as an ambassador to ,Charles VI of France and arranged an alliance between the English and the Burgundians. He was killed at the Battle of Bauge on 22 March 1421.
