Thomas Mortimer
Sir Thomas Mortimer (c.1350-1403) was an English soldier, statesman and judge of the late fourteenth century who served briefly as Lord Deputy of Ireland and Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. He is best remembered for killing Sir Thomas Molineux, the royal commander, at the Battle of Radcot Bridge, a crime which ultimately led to his conviction for treason and death in exile.
==Background==
He was an illegitimate son of Roger Mortimer, 2nd Earl of March. He seems to have been treated by his father and brother very much as one of the family. Nothing seems to be known of his mother. By 1380 he had acquired considerable military expertise, and had been knighted. When his legtitmate brother Edmund Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March was made Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in 1379, Thomas went with him to Ireland and acted as his Deputy, holding in his name a Great Council at Clonmel.〔Otway-Ruthven, A.J. ''History of Medieval Ireland'' Barnes and Noble Reissue 1993 p.315〕 March was charged with subduing the Gaelic clans in Ulster and Munster, but had only limited success in his task.
