All the king's men: a play. Gocelin himself had a distinctively French name, and the picture that emerges is one in which King David must have given the land to a French-speaking immigrant a substantial number of years before , and that 1 Paradox of Medieval Scotland PoMS database, no.
Barrow Edinburgh, , no. Marie de Neubotle, [ed. Cosmo Innes] Bannatyne Club, no. Indeed, if the parish of Newbattle was royal demesne, which seems clear, then Gocelin the cook probably was beneficiary to this royal munificence before , when Newbattle Abbey was founded. Its position on Dere Street may have marked it out as a prime location. Being a professional cook could be passed on from father to son.
Two royal charters dated 5 Nov. Until recently, these two charters hung on the wall of Balcaskie House, held by the Anstruther family, baronets of Balcaskie. The land given by William is described as Balcaskie in the territory of Kellie, pointing to the fact that Balcaskie, like Kellie, were in the parish of Carnbee in Fife.
Moreover, the charter specifies that this new fief was to be held in return for the annual military service of a sergeant on horseback. In practice these landholding conditions would have meant that future generations would hold the land regardless of whether they continued to act as cooks to the kings. The second charter, dated on the same day, renews the royal gift of further lands in the territory of Kellie, which had 2 RRS, i, , n.

John Cook of Balcaskie seems almost certainly to be a descendant of Ivo the cook, if not his son, but it is probable that John Cook of Abercrombie and Richard Cook of Abercrombie were also relatives. Abercrombie was the name of an estate neighbouring Balcaskie to the west, which in the medieval era had its own kirk, which was later absorbed into the parish of St Monans.
A few years later, on 4 Oct. The jurors declared William son of the late Richard of Abercrombie to be the legitimate heir to that estate, which they claimed was worth 34 marks per annum. Bakers The kings also employed bakers, and as with the royal cooks, were capable of rewarding these servants with generous gifts of lands. Thomas Thomson] Bannatyne Club, no.

Joseph Bain Edinburgh, , no. James Balfour Paul Edinburgh, , no. In other words, rather than owing military service, the only specified return required for the land was the service that Ailif would render to the king in his capacity as a baker.
Comparison between the two cases raises another point. The gift to Ivo the cook, however, was in East Fife, a place not frequented by the royal household although Crail was occasionally visited. Further, the gift to Ivo the cook was in return for military service.
Thus, it is likely that Balcaskie was given to Ivo, perhaps upon retiring from a long career of loyal service, but that further expectations from himself and his progeny in terms of their duties as cooks cannot be assumed.
Besides underlining the fact that the bakers were valued royal servants, this charter suggests that their holdings were substantial enough to have their own tenants. It seems likely that royal service, even as a baker or cook, could lead to a position in the lesser aristocracy or gentry.
But that position might not always be permanent.
