Dhameystir weedha soo socota: Ross wuxuu ku tilmaamay hantida Clifford ee Cumberland, Westmorland, Durham iyo Yorkshire "qiimo iyo istiraatiijiyad muhiim ah waqooyiga dhibaatada leh". Si kastaba ha ahaatee, Baronkii sagaalaad marnaba ma ahayn mid taajir ah sida qaar ka mid ah qoysaska deriska ah, sida Darcys. 1461 kii waxaa laga hortagay in wiilkiisa dhaxlo, laakiin 1470kii Boqor Edward waxaa lagu qasbay carshiga iyo masaafurinta, Henry VI ayaa ku soo laabtay carshiga. Earl of Warwick, oo hada la safan gurigii Lancaster ee ka soo horjeeda Edward, ayaa mas'uul ka ahaa dowlada, iyo walaalkiis, John, Marquess Montagu, waxaa la siiyay Henry Clifford ilaalintiisa inta uu yaraa. Summerson wuxuu sheegay in tani ay tahay fursad uu Clifford dib ugu soo ceshan karo dhaxalkiisa. Waxaa laga yaabaa in aysan jirin waqti ku filan oo uu ku cadaadiyo sheegashadiisa, si kastaba ha ahaatee, sida labada Nevilles ayaa lagu dilay
Dagaalkii Barnet 14-kii Abriil ee sanadkii xigay. Guushii Edward IV ee Barnet, iyo dagaalkii Tewkesbury dhowr toddobaad ka dib, waxay burburiyeen haraadiga iska caabinta Lancastrian waxayna Edward ku soo celiyeen carshiga. Inkastoo Clifford uu la xiriiray Lancastrian, haddana wuxuu u muuqdaa inuusan waligiis khatar ku jirin xilligan, maadaama 16-kii Maarso 1472 Edward uu siiyay cafis boqortooyo. Tani waxay dhacday in kasta oo uu isku dayay Clifford walaalkiis Thomas inuu kiciyo kacdoon pro-Lancastrian ah oo aan guuleysan oo ku yaal Hartlepool. Henry Clifford waxaa loo oggolaaday inuu dhaxlo hantidii awowgiis Henry Bromflete, Lord Vescy - oo dhintay 1469 - laakiin wali ma ahan dhaxalkiisa Clifford. Intaas waxaa sii dheer, maadaama hooyadiis ay wali nooshahay, saddex meelood meel dhaxalkiisa - dowerkeeda - wuxuu ka baxsaday gacanta ilaa dhimashadeeda 1493.
