• Background Information. 141
Hurbert de Munchensy, possibly the same Hubert, but more probably his successor, lord of Edwardstone, in 1115 gave its church and 2/3 of the tithes of Staverton and Stanstead to Abingdon Abbey, and it was probably this Hubert who gave to Castleacre Priory 2/3 of his tithes of Clay and Holkham. The feudal importance of the family was increased by a grant from Henry I of some of the fees of Godric dapifer. The donor of Edwardstone church became a monk at Abingdon, and married certainly twice, 1stly, possibly an heiress of Godric*; later, Muriel, widow of the father of William de Bachetone, and daughter of Piers de Valoignes, sheriff of Essex and Herts in 1086, by Aubrey, sister of Eudo dapifer.

* . . . Hubert's sons Gilbert, Hubert and Hugh appear to have been brothers of the whole blood; Warin, upon whom the Godric fees were settled, was possibly their whole brother. Roger and Geoffrey were sons of Muriel de Valoignes.
