378 PRINCIPAL LANDOWNERS IN CORNWALL. 



Roger Anglicus was son of Ealph de Cherdsey, and a charter 

 of his occurs in the register of the Abbey of Nutley in Buck- 

 inghamshire, circa 1204. Among the witnesses to this charter 

 was Gerard, son of Eobert de Greinvill, ancestor to the Dukes 

 of Buckingham and Chandos. The Abbey of Nutley was 

 founded anno 1161, by Walter Griffard, second Earl of Buck- 

 ingham and Longueville, who died without issue, in 1164. His 

 sister, Constantia, or Constance, is said to have been the wife of 

 Eichard de Greinville, ancestor to the Earls of Bath, &c, and 

 their grandson is supposed to have married the heiress of 

 Thomas Fitz-Nicholas de Middelton, and to have died circa 1217. 

 (Vide No. 3). 



The Honor of Middleton, Lyson's says, "was granted by 

 Bang John to William Briwere in 1203, and that this property, 

 of course, we trace no further." From extracts accompanying 

 this paper, it appears that in 1332, the 10 fees of Middellande 

 or Middleton, where held by the Chaworth family, who, through 

 the heiress of De la Ferte, descended from William de Briwere, 

 who died 1226.

CORNTJBIA. 



1. Rolert de Cardinan. — 71 knights' fees. 



The same as in Eoll A. Eobert was living 1216. 



2. Reginald de Valletort. — 59 knights' fees of the Honor of 

 Trematon. 



In 1165, Ealph de Valletort held 59 knights' fees in Devon 

 and Cornwall. In 1196, Eeginald held 51 fees; and in 1213, he 

 is returned as holding the same number as were held by Ealph. 

 The manor, honor, and castle of Trematon, the Tremeton of 

 Domesday, were held by Brismar in the reign of the Confessor, 

 and by Eainald de Valletort, under the Earl of Moriton and 

 Cornwall, temp. William I. In 1275, 4th Edward I, Eoger de 

 Valletort, the last of the family of that name, resigned his right 

 and interest in the manor and castle, with the appurtenances, to 

 Eichard, Earl of Cornwall.
