John de Brantingham (died before 1365) was an English Christian clergyman of the early 14th century and a member of the Brantingham family. He held a prebend of Derby Cathedral, value five marks a year, and the rectory of Askeby, worth 20 marks annually.[1] In June 1318, Pope John XXII empowered de Brantingham to hold, in addition to his existing posts, the rectory of Huggate in the diocese of York, worth 40 pounds per annum.[1] Later, de Brantingham also served as vicar of Otley in Yorkshire.[2] Clearly a prodigious clergyman, de Brantingham appeared at the Parliament of Carlisle in 1306/1307 as a proxy for the Archdeacon of Surrey and, later, as a substitute for Henry de Tychewell, who was a proxy for the archdeaconry of Surrey.[3]
In 1325, William Melton, Archbishop of York, granted to de Brantingham, then vicar of Otley, the wardship and marriage of Agnes, daughter and heir of John Malebrank of Farnley.[2]
De Brantingham is also recorded as a witness to the grant by William Peyle to William Mariot of a half-acre of land in the territory of Sileby in the field called Suzerenemers, for 22 shillings; rent a rose a year.[4]
