318 THE PRIOUS OF TYWARDRETH. 



Robert Peverel of the Scutage-roll of 1213, or later, was not 

 likely to have been the father of William Peverel, the lord of 

 Hamatethy 40 years before, but rather his son ; and that the 

 said William was probably the first Peverel who settled in 

 Cornwall, " descended from the Peverells of Sanford Peverel, in 

 the county of Devon, seated there early in the reign of Hen. II 

 (1154-89) being descended from William Peverell, who in the 

 time of Hen. I. (1100-35) was seated at Weston-Peverell in the 

 same county."
