Nottingham, Thomas Mowbray, 2nd earl of (1385–1405). Mowbray's father was created duke of Norfolk in 1397 by Richard II but the grant was annulled by Henry IV's first Parliament. A minor when his father died in 1399, Mowbray seems to have inherited his father's hatred of Henry IV. In 1405 he joined Archbishop Scrope in rebellion and shared his fate.
