Notes
Medical:
Sir Urses Knight of William the Conqueror's Invading Army was born before 1050 in of Normandy, France.
Sir Urses was one of William the Conqueror's knights that crossed the Channel in 1066 for the conquest of England. It is debated among scholars whether Wain Fitz-Urse de Berham was the grandson or the great-grandson of this Urse. There is little doubt that Warin was a descendant of this Norman, Urse. Actually I believe the knight was called Urse and his immediate descendants used Fitz-Urse which literally means "son of Urse" a common practice before surnames became regularized. Actually the time frame suggests that there were at least 3 generations between Urse and Warin.
LANDS HELD
DOMESDAY ENTRY FOR BARHAM, KENT
In Berham Hundred Fulbert holds of the Bishop Berham
It anwsers for 6 sulings. There is the arable land of 32 plough teams.
In demesne there are three teams and 52 villans with 20 cotars have 18 teams. A church there - and a mill of 20 shillings and four pence. Twenty-five fisheries there of 35 shillings less than four pence. From average, there is service, 60 shillings. From herbage, 26 shillings, and 20 acres of meadow. From pannage 150 hogs.
From this manor the bishop gave one berewick which is called Huham to Herbertin, son of Ivo, and he has there one team in demesne and 12 villans with 9 teams, and 20 acres of meadow.
From the same manor the Bishop gave one suling to Osborn Paisforere and 2 mills of 50 shillings, and there is one team in demesne there and 4 villans with one team.
The whole of Berham in time of King Edward was worth 40 pounds. When the Bishop received it likewise and yet it used to render him 100 pounds. Now by itself Berham is worth 40 pounds and Huham 10 pounds and this which Osborn has six pounds and the land of one Ranulf a knight is worth 40 shillings. Stigand the Archbishop held this manor but it was not of the Archbishopric but it was of the domesne farm of King Edward.
WITHYCOMBE Somerset - The family of Fitzurse possessed this manor in very early times after the Norman Conquest. Of which family there is traced a descent of seven generations from the time of Henry II to the latter end of the reign of Edward III when the two daughters of Sir Ralph Fitzurse being married, the one to Fulford of Fulford in Devonshire, the other to Sir Hugh Durborough of Heathfield. Durborough in this county, the manor became aligned from the name, and in the partition of the marriage settlements between the two daughters abovementioned, was assigned to Maud the wife of Durborough. The issue was James Durborough of Heathfield and Ralph Durborough the eldest who inherited Withycombe
