Stephen le Scrope was the son of Geoffrey le Scrope and Ivette de Ros/Roos.[1][2][3] His birth date is not known and has been guesstimated, taking into account that his parents married before 1312 and he was their fourth son. He was likely to have been born in Yorkshire, where his parents had lands.[4][5]

Stephen married Isabel,[3] whose family origins are not known. She was probably the widow of Humphrey Stordey. She brought him property at Thornton, Stertwhayt and Danby on Yore in Yorkshire.[1][2]

They had one child:

1. Joan, who married William Pert and Roger Swillington[1][2][3]

Stephen was granted property in Yorkshire by his brother Henry Scrope.[6][7]

Stephen took part in the Battle of Crecy in 1346 and the siege of Calais in 1346-7. In 1356 he was in the forces which regained Berwick-upon-Tweed. In 1359 he went with Edward III's forces to France.[1][2]

A grant of land in Yorkshire by him and his wife shows that they were living on 11 August 1359. Stephen's death date is not known.[1][2]

Origins

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoffrey_le_Scrope

Sir Geoffrey le Scrope (1285 – 2 December 1340) was an English lawyer, and Chief Justice of the King's Bench for four periods between 1324 and 1338.

Geoffrey and his wife, Ivette (de Ros) -- in all probability daughter of Sir William de Ros of Ingmanthorpe, near Wetherby -- had five sons. Their eldest son, Henry (whose daughter Joan married Henry Fitzhugh), became the first Baron Scrope of Masham.[1]

By this marriage, he had five sons and three daughters:[1]

1. Henry, first baron Scrope of Masham;
2. Thomas, who predeceased his father;
3. William (1325?–1367), who fought at the Battle of Crécy, Poitiers, and Najara, and died in Spain;
4. Stephen, who was at the Battle of Crécy and the siege of Berwick (1356);
5. Geoffrey (died 1383), LL.B. (probably of Oxford), prebendary of Lincoln, London, and York.
6. Beatrice, who married Sir Andrew Luttrell of Lincolnshire
7. Constance, who married Sir Geoffrey Luttrell of Lincolnshire
8. Ivetta, the wife of John de Hothom

A second marriage with Lora, daughter of Gerard de Furnival of Hertfordshire and Yorkshire, and widow of Sir John Ufflete or Usflete, has been inferred from a gift of her son, Gerard Ufflete, to Scrope and his mother jointly in 1331; but Ivetta is named as Scrope's wife in 1332.[1]

Newsham is one of the Yorkshire manors that passed from the Miniots of Carlton Miniott to the Markenfields. ... In 1286–7, by what title does not appear, Henry Picot or Pigot, (fn. 194) presumably a connexion of Cassandra who was holding part of the Fitz Hugh fee at that date, held the Fitz Alan fee of Newsham (fn. 195) and was assessed for the subsidy in Newsham in 1301–2. (fn. 196) Brian Pigot was joint lord of the vill in 1316, (fn. 197) and in 1340 a Brian Pigot of Mansfield settled tenements, a mill and quarter of a knight's fee in Mansfield and Newsham on himself for life, with successive remainders to his son John and his heirs, and to Henry son of Sir Geoffrey le Scrope, kt., and his right heirs. (fn. 198) Sir Henry Scrope, kt., gave the manor to Stephen Scrope, from whom it descended to his daughter Joan. (fn. 199) She married Sir Roger Swillington, kt., and as his widow died seised in 1427. (fn. 200) Her heirs were Conan son of Roger Aske and Elizabeth his wife, her daughter, Isabel wife of Robert Conyers of Sockburn, another daughter, and Margaret wife of William Edlington, a third daughter. (fn. 201) The 'manor' seems to have been divided among these co-heirs, for in 1486–7 Christopher Conyers died seised of one-third, (fn. 202) and in 1420 his son William died seised of the same, leaving a son and heir Christopher. (fn. 203) There is no further mention of the manor.
