From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas de Vere, 8th Earl of Oxford (c. 1336 – September, 1371) was the son and heir of John de Vere, 7th Earl of Oxford. Thomas took part in several of the military campaigns of Edward III. At some point before 1350, he married Maud de Ufford, daughter and heir of Sir Ralph de Ufford. After Thomas’s death, Maud was indicted for involvement in a plot against King Henry IV, but was later pardoned. When Robert died in 1331, he was succeeded by his son Robert de Vere, 9th Earl of Oxford.
