Robert de Montalt, 1st Baron Montalt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robert de Montalt, 1st Baron Montalt (12701329) was the son of another Robert de Montalt, and a younger brother of Roger de Montalt, 1st Baron Montalt.

Robert de Montalt served in the Scottish and Gascon wars of Edward I and Edward II. De Montalt was summoned to Parliament as Baron Montalt in 1299.

It should be noted that his summons as Baron Montalt was not a continuation of the 1297 barony, but rather a whole new creation.

At his death in 1329, the barony became extinct.
