• Background Information. 802
Peter Fitz Toret, whose name first appears in 1160, was more likely the grandson or great grandson of Torret the Saxon, than Torret's son. In the year of 1160, Peter was assessed on the greater Proprietors of Shropshire. Peter fitz Torette's proportion was a considerable one, but it was excused by a Writ of King Henry II [Rot. Pip. VI, 23 Hen. II, Salop]. In 1167, the Demesne-lands of Peter fitz Torette paid an amercement of 6s. 3d., set upon them by Alan de Nevill, who was Justice of the Forest at the time.

Peter Fitz Toret attested to deed of Willaim Fitz Alan, the second, of Madoc, son of Gervase Goch, and very many of Walter de Dunstaville, the first. In these attestation, none which were made later than 1194, he is often followed by his sons Philip and Bartholomew, and in one, there is a third son, Walter. It is also possible that Gerard Fitz Torret, of Evelth, was Peter's fourth son. It is likely that Philip, the eldest son, died without issue in his father's life time since Bartholomew succeeded his father.
