Richard Rede
Richard Rede (died after 1416) was a leading statesman and judge in Ireland of the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. He held office as Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer, Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, Deputy Lord Chancellor of Ireland and Deputy Treasurer of Ireland. 〔Ball, F. Elrington ''The Judges in Ireland 1221-1921'' John Murray London 1926 Vol. 1 p.171〕
He was born in County Meath; Rede or Reid has been a common Irish name, especially in Ulster, since the thirteenth century. His wife Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of Richard Netterville of Dowth, came from a family which would later be among the most prominent in Meath, and acquired the title Viscount Netterville.
==The Netterville inheritance==
Elizabeth, whose father died when she was very young, was made a royal ward, and her inheritance, which was clearly considerable, led to bitter disputes with neighbouring landowners. King Richard II appointed John Humbleton, one of his esquires of the body, as her guardian in 1394, only for Elizabeth to be kidnapped by members of the Darcy and Cusack families, who presumably hoped to gain control of her lands.〔Smith, Brendan ''Crisis and Survival in Late Medieval Ireland- the English of Louth and their Neighbours'' Oxford University Press 2013 p.95〕 She was soon released, but six years later the Crown was informed that these families still hoped to cheat her out of her inheritance. By 1400 Humbleton, no doubt finding that the wardship had been more trouble than it was worth, had granted custody of Elizabeth to Rede, who married her soon afterwards, but this does not seem to have been the end of the controversy.〔Smith pp.94-5〕
