Peter de Maulay
Peter de Maulay or Peter de Mauley (died 1241) was a nobleman and administrator who was one of King John of England's "evil counsellors".
==Early life==
Maulay's parentage is unknown, but he originated from the Maulay region in Poitou.〔 He appears to have had a younger brother named Aimery, who possibly was the same as an Aimery de Maulay who owned lands in Quinçay and La Rochelle between 1218 and 1259. In a monastic chronicle, Peter is said to have relinquished his lands in France to Aimery in 1204.,〔Vincent ''Peter des Roches'' p. 26 footnote 60〕 after the overlordship of the lands passed from King John of England to King Philip II of France.〔Vincent ''Peter des Roches'' p. 29〕 Peter's first appearance in the historical record was in 1202.〔 Under John, he was appointed an usher in the king's household,〔Carpenter ''Minority of Henry III'' p. 20〕 where he soon became a close advisor of the king. He was considered one of the "evil counsellors" of John by the chronicler Roger of Wendover.〔Vincent "Maulay, Peter (I) de" ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography''〕
After John's loss of Normandy, Maulay went to England and was given the manor of Upavon in Wiltshire.〔 His grant of the manor was at the king's pleasure, because the manor, which had been held by a noble who forfeited his land in England by staying in Normandy after its loss, would need to be restored to its rightful holder if John recovered Normandy.〔 He served as an envoy to Rome in 1213 and in 1214 was in command of royal forces at La Rochelle in France. He married in 1214 Isabella, the daughter and heiress of Robert of Thornham.〔 Thornham had died in 1211, so through his wife, Maulay acquired the Barony of Mulgrave in Yorkshire.〔Sanders ''English Baronies'' pp. 66–67〕 Maulay paid the king 7000 marks as a fine for the right to marry Isabella, one of the highest fines paid for the right to marry under John.〔Turner ''King John'' p. 79〕 According to the medieval chronicler Ralph of Coggeshall, Maulay was the murderer of John's nephew Arthur of Brittany.〔Carpenter ''Minority of Henry III'' p. 138〕
When the barons of England revolted against John in 1215, Maulay was given command of Corfe Castle by John. Along with Corfe, Maulay was also given custody of John's younger son, Richard of Cornwall. In 1216 he was given the office of Sheriff of Dorset and Somerset, where he made a name for himself with his exactions and heavy profiteering.〔 Besides the custody of Richard of Cornwall, Maulay was also responsible for supervising the confinement of John's niece, Eleanor of Brittany. At times, he was also responsible for keeping John's wife, Isabella of Angouleme and his heir, Prince Henry, safe from rebels, as long as they were at Corfe.〔Vincent ''Peter des Roches'' p. 71〕
