de la Mare
Andy Herron
wondering if anyone has more information on them ca. 1100 thru the 1300's.
This is what I have -
De la Mare is the name taken by a Norman family which came to England with
William, Duke of Normandy, in his conquest of England in 1066. Norman (I
question this name) De la Mere was a great Lord in Normandy, with his
Castle De la Mere (Castle of the lake) built on the edge of a lake in
Normandy. Thus, the name De la Mere (also spelled Delamare/De
Mara/Delamere, and others). Norman's son Hugh Delamare married a descendant
of Brockwell Yscithoer (the Prince of Powys) and sister to our grandmother.
Thus, the Delamares were brought into the family circle. Sir John Delamare
built Nunney Castle in 1373. He was a Knight for King Edward of England and
his descendant Sir John Delamare II was the Sheriff of the Counties of
Somerset and Wiltshire, as well as retaining the title of Knight.
The Delamares were married into other Prater allied families; Kingston, St.
John, Paulets (Powellets), Powys, Ivys, Carew, Courtney, and others. The
Delamare name is still very well known today in England. Our grandfather,
Anthony Prater of Stanton St, Bernard, Wiltshire, was married to Judith Ivy
whose mother was a descendant of Delamare.
any imput would be greatly appreciated!
