Holland family : ウィキペディア英語版 | Holland family
The Holland family was a medieval-era English noble family. Many famous people throughout American and British history were descended from the Hollands. Many Hollands were Counts, Dukes, Knights and Barons in medieval England. All of the male members of the family inherited the title Baron Holand. ==Robert de Holland, 1st Baron Holland== The first recorded Holland was a knight named Sir Robert de Holland of Upholland, indicating that the family might have its origins in Upholland. Robert had a son, Robert de Holland, 1st Baron Holand, born around 1283, who became a favourite knight of Thomas, 2nd Earl of Lancaster. After fighting for Thomas in the Banastre Rebellion, a civil war started by rival barons, he acquired large plots of land, because of his role in the war, and he was even given the high honour of being a member of the House of Lords in the English Parliament. He fought with Lancaster at the Battle of Boroughbridge in 1322 and after briefly being imprisoned continued rebelling until Queen Isabella's Invasion of England. In 1328 Henry, 3rd Earl of Lancaster followers declared Robert a traitor, took him prisoner, and beheaded him. Robert's children, Thomas Holland and Sir Otho Holland, carried on his legacy.
