   Never stopped Sir Tarquin de Hynes... granted the title by Richard II "ffor   
   grete servyses to hys majestye". Said to have been the only person ever   
   knighted   
   "whylst one hys knees wyths hys back to ye king".   
      
   Or Sir James Hines.... no issue, never married. A very good dancer according to   
   legend. Chaucer supposedly said "nevyr was sene yn thys kyngedome one soe lyte   
   onne ys ffeete and soe oft onne hys knees"
