It was held, however, by the latter family, as the See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")

Through them, under Henry III., it passed to the Bigods, as their eldest co-heirs
.
In 1306 it See also:fell to the See also:crown on the See also:death of the last See also:Bigod, See also:earl of See also:Norfolk, who had made See also:Edward I. his See also:heir, and in 1316 it was granted by Edward II. to his own younger See also:brother, See also:- THOMAS

Thomas " of Brotherton," earl of Norfolk
.
As yet the See also:style of the office was only " marshal " although the last Bigod holder, being an earl, was sometimes loosely spoken of as the earl marshal
.
The office, having reverted to the crown, was granted out anew by See also:Richard II., in 1385, to Thomas See also:Mowbray, earl of See also:Nottingham, the representative of Thomas " of Brotherton." In 1386 the style of " earl marshal " was formally granted to him in addition
.
After several attainders and partial restorations in the reigns of the Tudors and the Stuarts, the earl marshalship was granted anew to the Howards by See also:Charles II. in 1672 and entailed on their male See also:line, with many specific remainders and limitations, under which See also:settlement it has regularly descended to the See also:present See also:duke of Norfolk
.
[ts holders, however, could not execute the office until the See also:Roman See also:Catholic emancipation, and had to appoint deputies
.
The duke is styled earl marshal " and hereditary marshal of England," but the See also:double style would seem to be an See also:error, though the Mowbrays, with their double creation (1385, 1386) might have claimed it
.

.
There appear to have been hereditary marshals of See also:Ireland, but their See also:history is not well ascertained
.
The Keiths were Great Marischals of See also:Scotland from at least the days of See also:Robert See also:Bruce, and were created earls marischal in or about 1458, but lost both earldom and office by the See also:- ATTAINDER (from the O. Fr. ataindre, ateindre, to attain, i.e. to strike, accuse, condemn; Lat. attingere, tangere, to touch; the meaning has been greatly affected by the confusion with Fr. taindre, teindre, to taint, stain, Lat. tingere, to dye)
