Genealogy of William Billing, by Frank Billings, page 44.
    Sir Thomas Billing, the eldest son of John Billing, of Rowell, was of the Inns of Court and was called to the bar. He made Sergeant-at Law in 1453, and was knighted in 1458 for taking a prominent part with the Lancastrian party. When the right to the court was argued (1466), he appeared at the bar of the House of Lords as councel for Henry VI, leading the Attorney and Solicitor General. He was the principal law advisor to Edward IV, and in 1565 was made Jusitce of the King's Bench, and in 1468 Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench. In the spring of the year 1481, he was struck with apoplexy and expired in the few days after a tenure of office for seventeen years in the mist of civil wars and revolutions. He was buried in Bittlesden Abbey in Oxfordshire, where a large blue marble slab was placed over his body, having on it the figures, in brass, of himself and his lady. He is represented in his official robes. This slab and the slab that covered his son Thomas were taken from the Abbey after the dissolution of monasteries and placed at the upper end of the center aisle of Wappenham Church, where they now remain.
    Sir Thomas, by his first wife Catherine, daughter of Roger Giffold of Twyford in Buckinghamshire, Esquire, became possessed of Gifford's Manor, in the hamlet of Astwell and parish of Wappenham in Northamptonshire, afterwards calling Billing's Manor, where he took up his residence. The ancient manor house, although much curtailed in size, is still standing, and now occupied as a farmhouse.
    The children of Sir Thomas, all by his first wife, were: Thomas, his heir, who succeeded to the estates in Astwell, and died on the 23rd of March, 1508/9, leaving four daughters, coheiresses, by whose marriage the large extates of the Billings passed into other families.
