- Source Par Robert William Eyton:
"... many Immigrants from Brittany and Maine may be presumed to have come to England, and, among them, several members of the family of De Gorram, previously settled at La Tanniere, in Maine. One of these, viz. William de Gorram, appears to have been the person who had Chetton and Berwick by gift of Henry I., and Eudon by gift of Alan fitz Flaald or his son. That this William de Gorram was father of Damietta, the wife of Ranulph de Broc, is quite clear from documentary evidence;\emdash for instance, "William de Gorram gives his land of Staplehurst,1 which he held under Earl William, to Ranulph de Broc and to his (William de Gorram's) daughter Damata, and to their heirs;\emdash to hold under Earl William."
Ranulph de Broc died, as we have seen, about 1187, holding half a knight's-fee in the Honour of Arundel, and probably at Staplehurst above mentioned. His wife Damietta, known to have been heiress of Berwick, Chetton, and Eudon, survived till about 1204. Ranulph de Broc apparently had a son, Robert, by his wife Damietta, which son survived him. Hence we have a Deed whereby "Damata, formerly wife of Sir Ranulph de Broc, and Robert de Broc, her son, testify that they were present when the said Ranulph gave his land of Combdena to one Fulco de Bollard; and they confirm the donation."
Again, Robert de Broc married Margaret, daughter of Richard de Beauchamp, and had by her a son, Laurence. Hence a Deed whereby "Robert de Broc, for the (souls') health of Margaret his wife, of Sir Ranulph de Broc his father, of Laurence his son, and of Sir Richard de Beauchamp, Margaret's father, makes a grant to the Church of St. Paul of Newnham and to the Canons of Ravensden. Witnesses,\emdash Sir Stephen de Turnham, Sir Thomas Basset." However, the male line of Ranulph de Broc must have expired on the deaths of the above Robert and Laurence, and before the death of Damietta de Gorram. On the last event taking place in 1204, Stephen de Turnham, as husband of Edelina (Damietta's eldest daughter and alleged heir), obtained livery of Frelbury (Southants), and of Berwick, Chetton, and Eudon (Shropshire). The litigation which ensued between Edelina and her sisters, or the heirs and representatives of herself and her sisters, has been given already in most of its details. I now turn back a few years to add something to what has been said under Idsall, about Stephen de Turnham.\emdash ..."

"It is uncertain whether we must refer to the family of Gorram of the Maine, William De Goram who, in the reign of Henry II. waa possessed of half a knight's fee in Staplehurtt [Kent?], and who was Lord of the manor of frelteri, in the county of Southampton. His daughter Damata De Goram married Ralph de Broc of Agenet Castle; she died before 1205. (Close Rolls, 6 John, in. 19.) An undated grant by William de Goram, to Ralph de Broc and Damata his wife, of half a fee in Staplehurst to be held from Earl William, was among the Records of the late Earls of Peterborough, and is printed in that rare volume, Halated's Genealogies ...
The inheritance of Damata de Goram was disputed in 1223 by her two daughters, Edelina, who married Stephen de Turnham (deceased before 1215, Pipe Roll 16 John, Surrey) and Sybilla de Broc ..."

"Ranulf de Broc ...
De Broc married Dametta de Gorron, who brought lands at Frollebury in Hampshire and Chetton, Eudon and Berwick in Shropshire to the marriage. Besides his wife's lands, de Broc also held lands worth half a knight's fee at Angmering in Sussex and lands worth a full knight's fee at Pepperharrow.
De Broc's marriage produced five daughters, who were de Broc's coheiresses when he died around 1179. Dametta died in 1204. The eldest daughter was Edelina, and the other four were Felicia, Sibil, Lucy, and Clemence. Edelina married Stephen of Turnham, Felicia married William Harang, Sibil married William de Arundel and Ralph Belet, and Clemence married William de Tatlington."
Damietta married Ranulph DE BROC, Of Agenet Castle [4121], son of Oin PURCEL, Lord Of Catteshill [4128] and N. DE BROC [4129]. (Ranulph DE BROC, Of Agenet Castle [4121] was born about 1120 and died about 1187 in , , England.)
