The baronetage of England by William Betham has The Pedigree of Langham of Cottesbrooke, Northamptonshire:

'This family is descended from William, son of Henry de Langham, who held three carves or land, in Langham, in Rutlandshire, 10 Edw. I. and was father of William, whose son, Robert, had land in Winlodham, in Leicestershire, 44 Edw. III. and married Margaret, daughter and heir of Sir John Revell, of Newbold-Revell, in Warwickshire, Knt. relict of Sir Stephen Malory, of Swinford, in Leicestershire, Knt'.

For the identification of the author of Morte d' Arthur with Sir Thomas Malory of Newbold Revel and Monks Kirby, Warwickshire, see 'History of Parliament 1439-1509, Biographies' (H.M. Stationery Office, 1936), p. 568. Harl. MS. 6163, fo. 56b (Foster, Two Tudors Books of Arms, p. 216) gives the Coat quartered as above for 'Mal lerre', and Dugdale's Warwickshire (1730 edn., Vol. 1, p. 83) engraves separate shields of Revel and Malory from 'the parlour windows' at Newbold Revel. John Malory of Winwick, Northamptonshire married a Revel co heiress in the time of Edward III. Cotgrave's Roll blazons 'Monsr. John Rivell port d'or le chief (sic) endente de sable une cheveron de gules'; that 'chief' is an error for border is shown by the tricked version (Cooke's Ordinary) in Coll. Arm. MS. Vincent 164, fo. 93b. The Parliamentary Roll blazons 'Sire Peres Maloure, de or a iij lupars (not lions) passaunz de sable'. S.M. Collins, F.S.A., notes 'Sir Jon Revel' with arms as above in Powell's Roll, c. 1350 (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS. Ashmole, 804, IV, fo. 20b.), 'William Revell with the same in the Antiquaries' Roll, c. 1355 (Society of Antiquaries' MS. 136, Part 1, fo. 7b.), and 'Perus Maulorie' with arms as above in Erdeswicke's Roll c. 1295.
