      «u»Knight of the Garter <http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Documents/Knights%20of%20the%20Garter.htm>«/u». Lord Treasurer of England. Brother & Heir to «b»John de Ros«/b», aged 24 at his brother's death. Summoned to Parliament from 20 Nov 1394. According to Cockayne's "Complete Peerage", he was summoned to parliament regularly 1394-1413. He served on the Privy Councils of both «b»Richard II«/b» and «b»Henry IV«/b». He was in Calais in 1396 for the wedding of «b»Richard II«/b» to «b»Isabelle«/b», the 8 year old daughter of «b»King Charles VI of France«/b». This marriage was very unpopular with the English nobility and added to their discontent with the «b»King«/b»'s rule in general. In 1399, while «b»Richard«/b» was on an expedition to Ireland, «b»Henry Bolingbroke, the Duke of Lancaster «/b»(the future Henry IV), who had been banished by «b»Richard«/b», returned to England with an army to claim the throne for himself. «b»William«/b» threw his support to «b»Henry«/b». He was present at the abdication of «b»Richard«/b» and assented to his inprisonment (which led to his death shortly thereafter). «b»William«/b» was Treasurer of England in 1403 &1404; made a Knight of the Garter in 1404; was one of the auditors of he war accounts in 1406; and in 1413-14 was the «b»King«/b»'s chief commissioner for the shires of Middlesex, Nottingham, and Derby in the matter of determining the facts relating to rebellions and treasons commited by the Lollards.
