St Michael's, Stanton Harcourt 2

In the Harcourt Chapel (among others) is the tomb and effigy of Sir Robert Harcourt Jr. who died c.1509. The Harcourts played a number of parts in the civil war between Lancaster and York. Sir Robert Harcourt Sr. was Sheriff of Oxfordshire in 1455 and was killed by the Lancastrians in 1470. His son John Harcourt was outlawed in 1483 for his part in Buckingham's rebellion. John's son, Robert was made a Knight of the Bath in 1494 and succeeded his father before 1495. Sir Robert Jr. served as sheriff of both Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. His tomb has above it a standard reputedly carried by him at the battle of Bosworth.
One of the brasses is to Henry Dodschone, the first Vicar of the parish who died in 1519. Before his incumbency the living was a Rectory in the gift of Reading Abbey.
