- This talk will explore some of the options for the younger siblings of the Mortimer lords of Wigmore/earls of March, which included being ordained in the church, entering religious orders, military and administrative careers. During the frequent minorities of the child Earls of March in the fourteenth century, some played key roles in managing the Mortimer estates and protecting the interests of their nephews.
