SANDFORD, JOHN DE (d. 1294)

This article appears in Volume V24, Page 139 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAC-SAR
SANDFORD, JOHN DE (d. 1294) , archbishop of Dublin, was
probably an illegitimate son of the baronial leader, Gilbert Basset (d. 1241), or of his brother Fulk Basset, bishop of London from 1241 until his death in 1259, a prelate who was prominent during the troubles of
Henry
  III.'s reign. John was a nephew of Sir Philip Basset (d. 1271), the
justiciar
 . He first appears as an official of
Henry
  III. in Ireland and of Edward I. in both England and Ireland; he was appointed dean of St Patrick's, Dublin, in 1275. In 1284 he was chosen archbishop of Dublin in succession to John of Darlington; some, however, objected to this choice and Sandford resigned his claim; but was elected a second time while he was in Rome, and returning to Ireland was allowed to take up the office. In 1288, during a time of
great
  con-fusion, the archbishop acted as
governor
  of Ireland. In 1290 he resigned and returned to England. Sandford served Edward I. in the
great
  case over the succession to the Scottish throne in 1292 and also as an
envoy
  to the German king, Adolph of Nassau, and the princes of the Empire. On his return from Germany he died at Yarmouth on the and of October 1294.
Sandford's elder brother, Fulk (d. 1271), was also archbishop of Dublin. He is called Fulk de Sandford and also Fulk Basset owing to his relationship to the Bassets. Having been arch-deacon of
Middlesex
  and treasurer and chancellor of St Paul's Cathedral, London, he was appointed archbishop of Dublin by Pope Alexander IV. in 1256. He took some slight part in the government of Ireland under Henry III. and died at Finglas
on the 4th of May 1271.
