Philip de Kyme

Philip was ward to Hugh Bigod during his minority and married one of his daughters.

He served in the wars against the Welsh, 1277 & 1282. He campaigned in Aquitaine and was present at the siege of Caerlaverock, 1301.

He was probably at the Battle of Boroughbridge, 1322, fighting against the Earl of Lancaster, and died in the same year.
