LANDOWNERS IN CORNWALL, 1165. 161 



Eosearet appears to have been divided into two ; Rosecarrock-mur, 

 (great) and Roscarrock-bighan, or Roscarroek-vean (little), but 

 both continued in the name and family of Eoscarrock during 

 several centuries, until 1673. Alured and Nigel, successors of 

 Alunim, appear to have been of the same family, undisturbed 

 by the Conqueror in the possession of their property, and to 

 have transmitted Eosearet to their posterity. 



" Ricardus filius Aluredi," of this record, we may safely 

 consider to be Eoscarrocks, although the name ' de Eosearet ' does 

 not appear until the time of Richard I, in the first year of whose 

 reign (1189-90) Walter de Eosearet was amerced in half a mark 

 for a breach of the forest laws ; and in 6th Eichard I, a similar 

 amercement is recorded in the Great Eoll of the Pipe. In 5th 

 John, he was again amerced in 5 shillings. In 1202, 3rd John, 

 Walter de Eoseares (Eoscarrock) suffered a fine to John de 

 Eglosheie (Eglosheyle) of one acre of land in Hevenant, and, in 



the same year, a certain Magister Aluredus levied a fine of 



..... Chrispinus of an acre of land, in Roserockbigan, and 

 Chrispinus quit-claimed all his right therein and in the capital 

 messuage of Roserockbigan, &c. 



In 1299, we find Eichard Eoscarekmur one of the jurors on 

 the Inq. p.m. of Edmund, Earl of Cornwall. In 1302, he is at 

 the assizes at Launceston, petitioning against William le Bere. 

 He is, probably, a great grandson of Walter de Eosearet, temp. 

 Richard I, mentioned above. His wife was Isolda, daughter of 

 Ealph Gifford, by whom he had issue, William, his son and heir, 

 who married Eve, daughter and heir of Laurence Arundell of 

 Bleyboll, by Margery le Flamanc, daughter of Sir Eobert le 

 Flamanc, Lord of Nantalan This Laurence was son of Sir 

 Eemfrey Arundell by Alice de Lanherne. 



9. Geffrey, son of Baldwin, holds 10 Knights' fees. 



Before 1083, Turstin, the Sheriff, is described as holding 

 twenty-seven manors in Cornwall. Baldwin Fitz-Thurstan gave 

 to the priory of Tywardreath the church of Lanlivery, 'ecclesiam 

 de Latilutry ,' and three acres of land. The manor of Bodardle, 

 the Bothardar of Domesday, was one of those held by Thurstin, 

 and was situated in the parish of Lanlivery. Geffrey, of this
