Sir Robert BELASYSE [scrapbook].

Robert Belasyse fought a battle in 1431.  It is not known which battle. The Scottish civil war was raging at this time and Robert could have been fighting with the Royalist forces of King James I of Scotland at the Battle of Inverlochy.  On the other hand, the 100 Years War was continuing in France, though there was no specific battle in 1431, the year Joan of Arc was executed.

This leads to another question: did Sir Robert fight in the region of Aquitaine with Richard I, did he marry a french girl and settle in the Bordeaux region? Is this how the Comte de Belassise's family came to be living near Bordeaux since this period of history?
