• Notes

  The manor of Gatton, Surrey is described in the Domesday book as, "Herfrid holds Gatone of the Bishop (of Baieux). Earl Lofwin held it, when it was assessed at 10 hides: now, at 2-1/2 hides. The arable land amounts to 5 carucates. There are in demesne 2 carucates; and there are six villains, and 3 bordars, with 2 carucates. There is a Church; and 6 acres of meadow. The wood yields seven swine, for pannage and herbage. In the time of King Edward, it was valued at 6 pounds, as at present; but when received, at 3 pounds." [Source: A topographical history of Surrey, by E.W. Brayley assisted by J. Britton ... By Edward Wedlake Brayley, John Britton] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the reign of Henry III. Robert de Gatton [this Hamo's grandfather] was possessed of the manors of Bocton and Wormesell, whose grandson Hamo de Gatton [this Hamo] dying without issue male, Elizabeth, his daughter and coheir, carried both these manors, with their appurtenances, in marriage to William de Dene, who in the 10th year of Edward II [1316/7] obtained a charter of free-warren for his several manors in this county. Margery, the other daughter of Hamo de Gatton, married Simon de Norwood, and had all her father's lands in Surry. William de Dene died in the 15th year of Edward III. holding these manors with their appurtenances, of the king in capite, as of his castle of Dover, and paying to the ward of it. Thomas de Dene, his son and heir, succeeded him in both of them, and in the 20th year of Edward III. paid aid for them, at the making the black prince a knight, as one knight's fee in Bocton and Wormsell, which Hamo de Gatton before held of the king. He died possessed of them in the 23d year of it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Reliquary and Illustrated Archaeologist, Volume 18, The Dering Roll of Arms, p. 26: Gatton, Hamon de, 91b 9. - R C.
