PEINCIPAL LANDOWNEES IN COENWALL. 385 



18. Henry de Herys. — 1 knight's fee. 



In Ped. Fin. 4 King John, Cornub. Inter Eichard de Trecarl 

 qu. Henry Heriz def. in Ebbeford, &c. This is an early notice 

 of an ancestor of the now extinct family of Erisey, of Grade, of 

 which the Earl of Kimberley is the present representative. 



19. Pharamus Warehras. — 1 knight's fee. 



In Testa de Nevill, among the free tenants of the Bishop 

 of Exeter in Cornwall, we find the heirs of Pharao de Walesbreu, 

 which Pharamus de Walesbraus in 1196 held half a knight's 

 fee in Tregaradoc (in St. Teath), and he suffered a fine therein 

 and in 24 marks of chattels to Guy de Wautam, who had 

 married Beatrice, the daughter of the said Pharamus. Ped. 

 fin. 8th Eichard I. 



20. Barth. fil.—l knight's fee. 



This obscure entry we venture to explain as follows : — 

 Bartholomew Toret held 1 fee in Streton (Stratton). He was 

 dead before 1235. A Blanchminster married Lucia Toret, and 

 she was defunct in 1254. Eanulph de Albo Monasterio 

 (Blanchminster) in 1337, held the same fee in Stratton of 

 Launceston Castle, which was formerly held by "Bartholomew the 

 son of Turock." 



Toret in 1060, was the Saxon Lord of Wroxeter and Eaton 

 (Mascott) in Salop. His grandson, Peter Fitz-Toret, married 

 Lucia Haget, and by her had a son, Bartholomew Toret, whose 

 name occurs in 1196-1229, and a daughter, Lucia, who married 

 * * * de Albo Monasterio. 



The name of Peter Fitz-Toret is constantly occurring in 

 connection with Shropshire places, or Shropshire men, but, in 

 far the greater number of instances, this Peter appears as a 

 follower, a witness to very many deeds of, or as a Knight 

 of Walter de Dunstanville (I) 1156-1195, Lord of the great 

 manor of Idsall. But it is more than probable that he was 

 Dunstanville' s tenant at Hem and Hinnington, and perhaps 

 elsewhere. These hamlets were held by Toret under the Manor 

 of Idsall, which manor had been probably acquired by Alan de 

 Dunstanville (I) by favour of King Henry I before 1135. This 

 feudal connection with Walter de Dunstanville, perhaps intro- 

 duced Bartholomew de Toret to the distant county of Cornwall,
