My Ancestors Came with the ConquerorMy Ancestors Came with the Conqueror. Those Who Did, and Some of Those Who Probably Did Not. Anthony J. Camp . (1988, 1990), 1998, paper, 89 pp.
This little gem by the Director of the Society of
Genealogists (London) contains a consolidated list
of the Companions of William the Conqueror and is in
effect a synthesized edition of the famous Battle
Abbey Roll. In addition to being the most
comprehensive version of the Battle Abbey Roll ever
compiled, it includes three scholarly papers which
discuss the validity of the evidence and form a
basis for testing conclusions. Mr. Camp also
references those Companions of the Conqueror whose
names appear in the Domesday Book of 1086 and
cross-references from the Roll to the Duchess of
Cleveland's three-volume work on the Battle Abbey
Roll and Lewis Loyd's Origins of Some
Anglo-Norman Families. 878-G |
