Robert Wikeford
Robert Wikeford (1330–1390) was a distinguished English diplomat who became Lord Chancellor of Ireland and Archbishop of Dublin.
== Early career ==
He was born at Wickford in Essex, where his family are said to have been Lords of the Manor of Wickford.〔O'Flanagan, J. Roderick ''Lives of the Lord Chancellors of Ireland '' London 1870〕 He was a fellow of Merton College, Oxford, became a clerk of the Chancery, and Archdeacon of Winchester in 1368.〔Ball, F. Elrington ''The Judges in Ireland 1221-1921'' John Murray London 1926〕
He seems to have been a man of considerable diplomatic and military ability, and was entrusted by King Edward III with a number of missions to the rulers of Flanders and Brabant and the King of Aragon. In 1373 he was made Constable of Bordeaux and later joined with the Seneschal in the government of Aquitaine.
O'Flanagan〔''Lives of the Chancellors''〕 records that in 1375 the royal judges in Aquitaine in a lawsuit in which Wikeford was defendant, gave judgement against him without hearing him in his own defence and imposed financial penalties of great severity. Wikeford appealed to the King in Council, and the King immediately ordered the judgement to be cancelled. The episode suggests that Wikeford, though a valued Crown servant, was not popular.
