Hi John - just wonder if we might have a bit of further clarificat.
on the start of this intriguing line? (It's probably just a matter
of format. E.g. your two sequences of 'footnote' numbers might be
thought to be tussling with each other, at least so far as the
possible duplication of '[1]' and '[2]' -- but not their contents --
goes?)

Is it possible that in the last 3 lines there's a residual conflation
of Walter Diaconus and Walter fitz Other, whom just above you've
taken good pains to distinguish?

I note that you call 1.1 Robert 'de Hastings' and his spouse 'de
Windsor', and say that he --

>attested charters as Robert de Windsor due to relationship with that family[1]

-- whereas -- minor point -- K-R in DD (789) reverses this, saying
Robert attests as of Windsor, implying that the name Hastings arises
from his significant relationship with the Hastings (e.g. via
'William his dispencer' and William's paternal uncle Ralph I of
Hastings), and that it 'was perhaps [Robert's] wife who brought the
name of Hastings'. Any special thinking behind this? (Perhaps K-R
turns it around -- I've not checked -- in her Prosopon Number 11
article?)

BTW, by --

> called William de Hastings ' I ' by Eyton

-- do you mean that Robert is the same individual as William and
merely erroneously named by Eyton, or is it more complicated than
that? (Normally I'd've thought your point concerned only Eyton's
using 'I', where other Williams were involved, but I've trouble in
finding another William here.)

Apologies if I seem befuddled. Maybe I should ask Geraldine.

Yrs,

Cris

There are some problems with the early Hastings descents given by Keats-Rohan.
There is also some acknowledged fraud in some of the early charters, but it
clearly goes beyond what has been accepted as fraudulent. I haven't time at
the moment to put everything I have on hand together, but will try very soon.

Dear Cris,

My apologies for any confusion that ensued, other than that engendered
by our ancestors. My own preference would, of course, have been a nice
orderly system of registered birth certificates, marriage licences & c.,
but then that would take the fun out of the process, non?

Responses interspersed below.

<<<<<<<<<<<< INSERT >>>>>>>>>>>>>

As indicated in the original post, the first notes are those to the
post (message) itself - 2 only ([1] and [2]). Those notes directly
documenting the following pedigree follow the pedigree, and are a
separate series.
Confusion may originate from the fact that the work of K.S.B. Keats-Rohan
is referenced in footnote [2] of the post, and also [1] of the pedigree.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<< INSERT >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Actually, no. These lines represent the unnamed spouse of Robert de
Hastings, and her mother and father. The designation "de Windsor" assigned
to the daughter of Walter fitz Other is simply due to his having been
castellan of Windsor (his son, the noted Gerald, is also known as "de
Windsor" or "of Windsor", as well as "Gerold filius Walteri" [DD p. 968]).
Insofar as I know, Walter 'the Deacon' ["diaconus"] held at Little
Easton, Essex at Domesday Book, and had no relation to Walter fitz Other
other than that created by their children....

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< INSERT >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I don't believe Robert of Little Easton [1.1 in the pedigree of the
original post] acquired the designation 'de Hastings' from either 'William
[de Hastings] his dispencer' {grandson of Robert; 1.1.2a.1 in the pedigree}
or from William's uncle Ralph I {elder son of Robert; 1.1.1 in the pedigree}.
In the Prosopon article, KSB K-R does not render a final answer to the
question of where the designation "de Hastings" derived from, but did
ponder whether or not it actually was somehow derived from the daughter of
Walter fitz Other, the wife of Robert (fitz Walter, de Hastings, & c.). The
full text of that portion of the Prosopon article dealing with Little
Easton follows (page reference is to Sanders):

" Little Easton (p. 130)
The descent of this fee has caused a great deal of confusion. Robert of
Windsor was not son of Walther fitz Other, but son and successor of Walter
the Deacon, Domesday holder of the barony of Little Easton. Family charters
relating to his succession refer to him as Robert fitz Walter, but he
appears to have attested charters in his lifetime as Robert of Windsor,
probably taking his byname from his connexion to the family of Walter fitz
Other of Windsor whose daughter he had married and whose son Maurice had
married his sister Edith. The relationship is established by the fact that
Henry II's charter giving the stewardship of Bury to William his dispencer
is very specific in its description of the relationships between William
and his predecessors in the office. William's immediate predecessor was
his paternal uncle (patruus) Ralph I of Hastings, a son of Robert fitz
Walter; Ralph of Hastings had inherited the office from his maternal
uncle (avunculus) Maurice of Windsor (his mother's brother who had
probably derived his right through his wife Edith). Robert was dead by
1128, when Henry I notified his men that he had rendered the lands of
Robert fitz Walter de Windsor to his son William (Cal. Charter Rolls
ii, p. 137). It was perhaps his wife who brought the name of Hastings
to their descendants. She may soon have remarried to Hugh de Waterville,
who accounted for his wife's dower in Bilstone, in the fief of Walter the
Deacon, in 1129/30. Father of William fitz Robert, alias de Hastings,
Ralph I and Richard de Hastings, Alice de Hastings, Emma de Hastings,
wife of Walter de Excestre; probably also father of Robert de Windresor
who attested several Wix and Bacton charters c. 1130-55. "

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< INSERT >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Actually, this insertion should be under his son William, and not
Robert. My typo, not Eyton's. This has to do with Eyton's numeration
concerning the William de Hastings who were acting as royal dispensers
and/or stewards of Bury St. Edmunds. You will find no other Williams
(de Hastings) in the pedigree, as this designation passed to William
de Hastings of Aston-Flamville, son of Hugh (and another grandson of
Robert fitz Walter/de Hastings/de Windsor..) and ancestor of the
Hastings of Abergavenny (Earls of Pembroke) and of Elsing and Gressenhall.

As long as that Geraldine was not an immediate descendant of those
under discussion. Such a Geraldine would likely have the answer; problem
being, assuming normal mortality, the answer will not be forthcoming. ;)

Dear Paul,

Thanks for that. Any added insights, corrections & c. to the 'accepted'
Hastings pedigree will certainly be appreciated.

The original post starting this thread seems to run afoul of a newsgroup
or other posting problem. I am appending the full text below.

Subj: Domesday Descent: Walter 'the Deacon' to Sir Martin de la See
Date: 11/25/2003 8:29:15 AM Eastern Standard Time
From: Therav3
To: GEN-MED...@rootsweb.com

Tuesday, 25 November, 2003

Hello All,

The ancestry of the wives of Sir Martin de la See, of Barmston,
co. Yorks. (esp. of Elizabeth Wentworth) has been of special interest
in the past, but that of Sir Martin himself has received little
attention outside of Poulson's history of Holderness [1].

Based upon the research of K.S.B. Keats-Rohan, the ancestry of
Matilda Monceaux, heiress of Barmeston and mother of Sir Martin de
la See, can be traced to John fitz Waleran of Herstmonceux, Sussex,
and also to Robert fitz Walter (aka Robert de Hastings) of Little
Easton, Essex. Robert de Hastings is a notable ancestor: being the
son of one Domesday tenant (Walter 'the Deacon') and son-in-law
of another (Walter fitz Other, ancestor of the Geraldine families),
he was also ancestor of the Hastings families of Elsing and Gissing,
and of the Hastings counts of Eu.

This line of descent provides Sir Martin de la See with some
interesting (if distant) collateral relations. Further, this also
expands the known ancestry of his descendants, including the
Boynton family of Barmeston, the Hildyards of Winestead, the
Kelkes of Barnetby le Wold, and the following 17th century emigrants:

1. William Asfordby

2. William Bladen

3. William Farrar

4. William Skepper

The following pedigree shows the descent from Walter 'the
Deacon' to Sir Martin de la See, and also indicates the connections
to the other identified ancestors who were tenants at Domesday
Book (1086). Should anyone have any comment, criticism or know
of relevant additional documentation (pro or con), please advise.

Cheers,

John

aid of knights from the fief of Waleran, her grandfather..."[8]
___________________________

re: John fitz Waleran, father of Juliana:

of Herstmonceux and Warberton, Sussex

'John's heir was his daughter Juliana, wife in 1129 of William of
Hastings (PR 31 Henry I, 58). She was subsequently the wife of
Robert Doisnel, a royal marshal whose daughter Juliana was married
to Henry II's servant William fitz Aldelin and died without issue.
In 1199 her heirs in both the land of John fitz Waleran and the
marshal serjeanty held by Robert Doisnel were William of Warberton
and Ingelran de Monceux, whose rights derived from his wife Idonea
de Monceux (Farrer, HKF iii, 376). William, the senior heir, and
Idonea, were probably descendants of the elder Juliana's first
marriage to William of Hastings. Part of the inheritance they
shared was five fees at Herstmonceaux and Warberton held of the
count of Eu in the Rape of Hastings.'[1]

1.1.2a.1 William de Hastings
----------------------------------------

despenser to King Henry II

confirmed in the office of Ralph de Hastings his uncle ('patruus')
as steward of Bury St. Edmunds, 1164/5[6]

NOTE: His successor in this office was his cousin William
de Hastings (of the Aston Flamville family)


1.1.2a.2 NN de Hastings
----------------------------------------

~the mother of Idonea, wife of Ingram de Monceaux was
evidently the child of Juliana 'filia Johanni' :
1. Idonea was coheiress of Juliana Doisnel together
with William de Warberton[1]; to have equal right
as coheir with William, Idonea must have been
either a daughter of Juliana, or daughter of a
daughter of Juliana (and William the son of
a daughter of Juliana, other than the mother of
Idonea)

Spouse: NN

Children: Idonea


1.1.2a.2.1 Idonea
----------------------------------------

'one of the heiresses of John fitz Waleran,..' (DD, p. 590)

she and her son Robert were benefactors of Robertsbridge abbey
(DD p. 590, citing Facsimiles of Charters in the British Museum, 61)[6]

of Barmeston and Winkton, co. York[9]

' Engelr[amus] de Mounceaus', confirmed gift by Henry Foliot of 1
bovate in Sunderlandwick to the church of St. Peter, York, with
the consent of his son Robert, ca. 1175 or before [EYC II:38, no.
682; cites Reg.Mag.Album, pt. ii, f. 61d.][10]

as to Ingram de Monceaux's holdings in right of his wife,
K. Keats-Rohan wrote,

' John fitz Waleran was not the ancestor of the Tanys of
Aveley. They descended from the issue of Matilda, heiress
and doubtless daughter of the Roger who held it in 1086
from John fitz Waleran. John's heir was his daughter Juliana,
wife in 1129 of William of Hastings (PR 31 Henry I, 58).
She was subsequently the wife of Robert Doisnel, a royal
marshal whose daughter Juliana was married to Henry II's
servant William fitz Aldelin and died without issue. In
1199 her heirs in both the land of John fitz Waleran and
the marshal serjeanty held by Robert Doisnel were

will dated 20 Nov 1494 [names widow, 'dame Margery', and 'godson
Martyn Boynton' without direct reference to other family members][14]

Entombed in All Saints' Church, Barmeston, East Riding, co. Yorks.:
' On the north side is an alabaster altar tomb, the dado of which
exhibits niches, each alternate one containing the full-length
figure of an angel holding a blank shield. On the slab lies the
recumbent figure of a knight in plate armour his hands joined
as in prayer, his feet resting on a lion (or perhaps a griffin)
and his head on a helmet. He has a conical headpiece, and the
fillet in which the head is bound hears this motto
"Jesu Nazarene." On the body the village vandals of past
generations have carved their initials, some of which are
dated as far back as 1672. The monument bears no inscription
except the motto, but it is generally supposed to be the
memorial of Sir Martin de la See, who died 1494...'[19]
