    Excerpt from Blood Royal: Thomas fought at the Battle of Crecy August 26, 1346.

On November 17, 1349, the Pope ordered that Joan should be restored to her lawful husband.

    Name:
    In 1340 he was in the expedition to Flanders, taking part in the Battle of Sluys on 24 June, and the siege of Tournai in July. He fought at Crecy on 26 Aug 1346, in the Prince's division, and after the battle superintended the counting of the slain. About 1346, during his absence abroad, Joan his wife went through a form of marriage (Possibly under compulsion) with William Montagu, Earl of Salisbury. He was a founder Knight of the Order of the Garter in 1348. On 17 Nov 1349 the Pope ordered Joan to be restored to him. He was summoned to Parliament from 15 Mar 1353/4 by writ directed 'Thome de Holand', whereby he is held to have become Lord Holand. His wife may possibly be the lady in whose honour the Order of the Garter received its name. In 1360 he was summoned as Earl of Kent.
