He was with Thomas of Lancaster at Pontefract on May 21, 1321, but was Warden of Scarborough Castle for the King on February 13, 1322. In 1328 he was appointed warden of the marches. In 1329 he went to France with the King. He had a grant from the crown, in the 2nd of Edward III (1329), of the reversion of the Barony and the Castle of Warkworth, etc. He had summons to Parliament from 1322 to the time of his death. In 1355 he defeated the Scots, who were raiding in Redesdale. In the following July he took part in Edward's invasion of Scotland. He was with Edward III in Scotland in 1336, 1337 and served there again in 1338. In 1339 he was commissioner of array at York. In 1341 he defeated the Scots at Farmley. He commended the first division at the Battle of Neville's Cross in 1346. He died February 26, 1351/52 and was buried at Alnwick. Idonia died in 1365, and founded the chantry for herself and her husband at Meaux. Birth: 6 FEB 1299/00 Ref: The Virginia Magazine 975.5 B2v The Percy Family in England - Henry De Percy, 2nd Baron Percy of Alnwick This second baron, before he was 21, received a grnat of the Northumbrian fees which had belonged to Patrick de Dunbar, Scotch Earl of Dunbar and March, who had risen against Edward II. (A fee, or fief, under the feudal system, was land held from a superior in return for a specific service.) He joined in 1326 with Prince Edward, Queen Isabella and other barons in supressing the Spencers and when the grateful prince took the throne as Edward III he gave Percy custody of the castle of Skipton in Yorkshire and the castle and barony of Warkworth in Northumberland. Because he was one of Edward III's favorites, he received from Edward Baliol, whose claim to the Scottish crown had been supported by the English king, large Scottish grants of the forfeited estates of David Bruce's followers. Shotly afterward he received a grant of 500 marks a year out of the old customs at Berwick." In 1346 he defeated the Scots at Neville's Cross and took prisoner their king, David Bruce. The Douglas clan fought with the Scots and perhaps that storied rivalry in arms of these two great border names started here." BIRTH: Also shown as Born , Leckonfield, Yorkshire, England. DEATH: Also shown as Died 25 Feb 1352

      Henry de Percy, 9th Baron Percy and 2nd Baron Percy of Alnwick (1298–1352) was the son of Henry de Percy, 1st Baron Percy of Alnwick, and Eleanor Fitzalan, daughter of Sir Richard FitzAlan, 7th Earl of Arundel, and sister of Richard FitzAlan, 8th Earl of Arundel.

      Henry was sixteen when his father died, so the Barony was placed in the custody of John de Felton.[1]

      In 1316 he was granted the lands of Patrick IV, Earl of March, in Northumberland, by King Edward II of England.[2] In 1322, was made governor of Pickering Castle and of the town and castle of Scarborough and was later knighted at York.[3] Henry joined with other barons to remove the Despensers, who were favorites of Edward II.

      Following a disastrous war with the Scots, Henry was empowered along with William Zouche to negotiate the Treaty of Edinburgh–Northampton.[4] This was an unpopular treaty and peace between England and Scotland lasted only five years.

      He was appointed to Edward III's Council in 1327 and was given the manor and castle of Skipton. Was granted, by Edward III, the castle and barony of Warkworth in 1328. He was at the siege of Dunbar and the Battle of Halidon Hill and was subsequently appointed constable of Berwick-upon-Tweed.[5] In 1346, Henry commanded the right wing of the English, at the Battle of Neville's Cross.[6]

      He married Idonia, daughter of Robert de Clifford, 1st Baron de Clifford,[7] and had six children;
