Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Great Cocktree Farm in the parish of South Tawton, Devon, anciently the seat of the Burnell family. Wikipedia:Roger Wyck (died c.1467) (alias Wykes, Wycke, Wick, Wicks, Weeke, etc.) of Bindon in the parish of Axmouth in Devon (whose ancestors were seated at North Wyke in the parish of South Tawton), was a Member of Parliament for Plympton Erle (UK Parliament constituency) in 1413. He was a younger son of William Wyke of North Wyke in the parish of South Tawton in Devon, by his wife Katherine Burnell, daughter and heires of John Burnell of Cocktree in the parish of South Tawton. He inherited much of his mothers property and "no doubt for this reason" (Woodger, L.S., biography of Wyke, Roger (d.c.1467), of Bindon in Axmouth, Devon, published in History of Parliament: House of Commons 1386-1421, ed. J.S. Roskell, L. Clark, C. Rawcliffe., 1993) he adopted his maternal canting arms of Burnell Argent, a chevron ermines between three burnells proper (where burnells are a type of bird, (see Pole, Sir William (d.1635), Collections Towards a Description of the County of Devon, Sir John-William de la Pole (ed.), London, 1791, p.508). probably Barnacle geese in lieu of his paternal arms of Wyck, which continued to be borne by his elder brothers.
