Sir Richard Tempest, son of John and Margaret was born abt. 1317 in Studely, Yorkshire, England.
He married 1st Joanna Hertford, daughter and heiress of Sir Thomas Hertford [Bourne?], Lord of Hertford, County York.
He married 2nd Isabel, only child and heir of John le Gras, Lord of Studley. (Isabel married 2nd Hugh de Clitherow, and had a daughter Isabel, who married her stepbrother, Richard Tempest; see next generation.)
This Sir Richard Tempest was Governor of Berwick-on-Tweed, 16th of Edward III, 1343, in which year Sir Thomas de Hertford, his father-in-law, entailed the manors of Hertford and Appleton, by fine, upon Richard and Joanna, his wife. In 1357 he was a commissioner to treat with the Scots for the delivery of King Robert Bruce. He was given the highest trusts upon the Scottish border, under Edward III, and deputed to see that the truce with the Scots was obeyed. His will was dated in 1379, the year of his death.
The Tempest family had acquired Studley through the marriage of Richard Tempest to Isabel, daughter and heir of Sir Richard de Bourne of Studley in 1355. This was his second marriage. Upon his first marriage to Joan, daughter and heir of Sir Thomas de Hertford, he acquired the Manor of Hertford in Yorkshire.
