Dear Jay - I have read with interest your information with regards the
de Beetham/ Musgrave records.

Margaret Beetham married Sir Richard Musgrave. Margaret was the daughter of Sir Thomas Beetham who was a representative in Parliament 1425 and was still living 1444.

Sir Thomas Beetham had a sister Mabel who married Sir Thomas Strickland in 1405, who carried the Cross of St. George at the battle of Agincourt 1415, these two are my own ancestors.

The following works may be of help:

The Beetham Repository by Rev'd William Hutton published in 1770, republished 1906 pages153 to156 gives a complete family tree of the Beetham family from Ralph de Beetham who married Ingaretha to Roger de Beethum married Anne Middleton circa 1483.

The Records of Kendale volume 2, by William Farrer published 1924, republished 1999.

The Redmans of Levens and Harewood by W. Greenwood published 1905 (this book is difficult to find apart from my own copy I only know of 3 other copies) but this book contains family trees of the Tunstalls and the Redman links with the Middletons.

If you want photocopies of part of these books I would be more then happy to oblige

best wishes, Nick

I also found a castle named Milham:
Milham Castle of England
The history of Milham Castle over the centuries is intricately tied into the proud tapestry of the families and defenders of the castle demesnes. Milham Castle has such a history, tracked through the centuries in annals of Norfolk. Milham Castle like most castles of England traces its construction after the Conquest in 1066. The current structural status of Milham Castle shows in modern records as being "data unavailable" , but its history is not lost. With each generation or battle, this castle stood defense for its people. And through the history of its people and their families, we learn how Milham Castle's mighty stone walls were carved by battle and survival through the generations. Just a short list of some of those families acting as defenders for Milham Castle is; Milham
Whether with the glory of the noble knights riding to battle in defense, the pageantry displayed from rough hewn stone to the family heraldic achievements above the mantel of the great fireplace, each castle and estate carried the weight of centuries of history. Notes on the history of Milham Castle through the centuries, show the following in the earliest records; data unavailable.
