Giles Thorndon
Giles Thorndon (1388–1477) was an official of the English Crown, who was noted for his long and loyal service to the House of Lancaster and for his troubled career as Lord Treasurer of Ireland.
==Early career==
He was born in Newcastle upon Tyne shortly before 1390.〔Curry, Anne E. and Matthews, Elizabeth ''Concepts and Patterns of Service in the Later Middle Ages'' Boydell and Brewer 2000 p.91〕 Little is known of his family; there is no evidence that he was related to Roger Thornton, the long serving Mayor of Newcastle.
By his own account he entered the household of the future King Henry V in 1404, when he must still have been in his teens.〔Curry and Matthews p.91〕 He continued to serve the Prince when he became King, and remained in the household of Henry VI. For several years he was the ''sewer'', i.e. the senior household official with responsibility for overseeing the kitchens. From household duties he was promoted to senior Crown service; in 1434 he became constable of Dublin Castle and Wicklow Castle, and for a time was also entrusted with Cardigan Castle.〔Curry and Matthews p.91〕 In 1437 he became Lord Treasurer of Ireland.
