BICKMARSH, (Warwickshire) a chapel of ease to the p. of Welford in Glocestershire, on the b. of which it stands. In the R.
of K. John one Robert Foliot was Ld. of this manor; after which it came to the Williamscots, who sold it in the R. of Edw.
I. to John de Bloxham; by whom it was passed in that of Edw. II. to the Beresfords. After this it came to Philip St.
Clere. In Q. Eliz's time the Lady St. John, widow of Sir Edward Griffith, purchased and settled it on her son Sir Rice
Griffith, in whose posterity it was lately, if it be not still. The Morehalls family in this Co. had some lands here,
which afterwards devolved to the Cloptons; and from them passed to the Crews and Burghs for life.
