Although these notes are at the moment very incomplete, they identify the lords or more than 12,000 manors, approximately 50% of those not identified in the text.

Some cases are straightforward: as all nineteen Ribalds in Domesday Book were tenants of one tenant-in-chief, they were evidently one man, just as all nine manors held by a Barthi had clearly been held by a single Englishman.. Few cases are as clear-cut as this; but all rely upon probability as circumstantial evidence of identity.

First, many names recognised as separate or of separate origin by philologists are used interchangeably by the Domesday scribes (or the scribes are guilty of a rather large number of mistakes); the notes which follow contain many examples and others are likely to be undetected. Secondly, while bynames provide the most common means of distinguishing individuals with the same forename, they can be misleading since one person could have s everal bynames. Richard son of Gilbert is also Richard of Clare and Richard of Tonbridge; Edeva the fair is Edeva the rich and very probably Countess Edeva; Reinbald is variously described as priest, chaplain, chancellor and as Reinbald of Cirencester; Ur s o the sheriff is also Urso of Abetot and Urso of Worcester; Alnoth the noble is also Alnoth of Canterbury, Alnoth of Kent and Alnoth the Kentishman; and Burghard of Mendlesham is Burghard of Shenley. Such well-known cases may be the tip of an iceberg whos e dimensions are probably larger than suspected. Unless documented by external sources, Domesday aliases can only rarely be proven; but in attempting to identify individuals, toponyms, patronymics and bynames from office or function cannot be regarded as m u tually exclusive. Topographic bynames from English place-names should be regarded with particular suspicion as exclusive identifiers as there is a marked tendency in some Domesday texts to name landowners from localities with which the scribes at Hundred, county or circuit level were familiar, one man potentially collecting two or more such bynames. In the nature of things, it is difficult to prove such suspicions; but it is likely, for instance, that Alwy of Thetford is Alwy of Colchester, that Reinbert o f Hastings is Reinbert of Sutton, that Jocelyn of Loddon is Jocelyn of Norwich, and that Godwin of Benfield is Godwin of Soulbury and perhaps also Godwin of Letchworth. \par }\pard \ql \li0\ri0\widctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid11030753 {\insrsid11030753 \tab References to the pioneering works of Dr Clarke's }{\i\insrsid11030753 English nobility}{\insrsid11030753 and to the }{ \i\insrsid11030753 Coel}{\insrsid11030753 database of Dr Keats-Rohan are provided as they supply lists of the manors of each landowner for comparison with the }{\i\insrsid11030753 Statistics}{\insrsid11030753 database; differences may pinpoint the more dubious identifications.

For post-Conquest historians, manorial descents are an important means of identifying Dome s day tenants. If, for instance, three Humphreys held Domesday manors found in the hands of one family at a later date, there is a presumption that the three Domesday Humphreys are one man. If these manors were later held by two or three families, however, i t would be rash to presume there were two or three Domesday Humphreys. Uninterrupted descent is far from the norm. Contemporary chronicles, the earliest charters, and post-Domesday surveys reveal re-arrangements in the composition of fees which broke desc e nt from the Domesday tenant within a generation. Research on replacement rates among landowners of a later period establishes that these were high, broadly speaking 25% in each generation; they are unlikely to have been lower in the turbulent twelfth cent u ry. Other factors affecting the descent of parts of an estate are equally if not more important: provision for daughters or younger sons, exchanges (a number noted in Domesday itself), sale, forfeiture, alienations, manorial fragmentation or consolidation , and other contingencies resulting in broken lines of descent, while the incompleteness of later documentation - the omission of mesne tenures, for instance - can result in a misleading appearance of fragmented descent. The bulk of this documentation date s from the mid-thirteenth century onwards, almost two centuries after Domesday when the chances of Domesday tenants having direct male descendants on all their manors are slight. \par }\pard \ql \li0\ri0\widctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid11030753 {\insrsid11030753 \par }{\b\insrsid11030753 Editorial principles}{\insrsid11030753 : It is hoped to hyperlink the notes which follow to the translation in due course, which requires that they are as self-contained as possible, hence the formulaic and repetitious nature of many of them.

Without delay, he went to York, and taking the horn he was wont to drink from with him, he filled it with wine, kneeling upon his knees before the Altar, bestowed upon God and the blessed S. Peter, Prince of the Apostles, all his lands and tenements'. Camden appears to locate his story in the eighth century, the time of Alcuin; but subsequent scholars referred it to the reign of Cnut or shortly thereafter since a fourteenth century source - probably Camden's 'ancient book' - describes Ulphus as an earl, a title not current before then, and adds that his gifts were confirmed by Edward the Confessor, confirming a pre-Conquest date: Gale, 'Historical dissertation', pp. 192-93.

An attempt has been made to reconcile Domesday and Kirkby's quest by suggesting that Ulf donated only some his lands to the Church of York, retaining some manors - he is held to be aliv e in 1086 - for himself and his sons; but, apart from ignoring the inconvenient parts of the tradition, the thesis depends upon heroic assumptions about the identity of several unidentified Ulfs, Arnketils, Gamals, Northmanns and Orms in Domesday: Davies, 'Horn of Ulphus', pp. 1-11. If Ulf and his horn can be assigned to any known Ulf, then given the scale of his grants and the historical tradition, the most likely candidate remains Cnut's earl, Ulf Thorgilsson, despite his patronymic.

The entry, however, is one of fifty-five successive cases, this particular one involving another earl, Earl Godwin, so the scribe may have nodded momentarily, repeating 'earl' when he should have written 'William', as in preceding and succeeding entries. If the scr ibe was aware that Warenne was an earl}{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 , it is }{\insrsid12807907 bizarre}{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 that he gave no indication of this }{\insrsid12807907 on the remainder of his large}{ \insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 Sussex }{\insrsid12807907 fief}{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 .}{\insrsid12807907 \par }{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 \tab The Huntingdonshire entry is }{\insrsid12807907 as}{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 ambiguous. At Woodwalton, the tenant-in-chief, Hugh of Bolbec, is said to hold his one manor from Earl William. }{\insrsid12807907 The only Earl William known to the Domesday scribe is Earl William son of Osbern (d. 1071); but he was long since dead by 1086 and his lands, though extensive, all lay in the south and west. Count - the same title - William of Eu succee ded his father Robert (}{\i\insrsid12807907\charrsid13259395 q.v.}{\insrsid12807907 ) a few years after Domesday; but William is always William of Eu to the Domesday scribe, and the Count of Eu is always named simply by his title. Neither the deceased Earl William or the later Count William had any connection wi th Hugh of Bolbec, nor did William of Warenne, who is the favoured candidate for }{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 the 'Earl William' in question}{\insrsid12807907 , in part because his fief immediately precedes that of Hugh of Bolbec. The }{ \insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 scribe}{\insrsid12807907 , however,}{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 made no explicit connection between the }{\insrsid12807907 two }{\insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 fiefs}{\insrsid12807907 , and}{ \insrsid12807907\charrsid988385 tenants-in-chief did not hold fiefs from other tenants-in-chief.

Warenne's manors in Huntingdonshire form a tight group, all acquired from Earl Harold; Bolbec's single manor was some distance from this group and was inherited from Saxi. On balance, Stenton's explanation , though not conclusive, seems the most plausible explanation and Earl William of Warenne in 1086 a scribal creation. \par }{\insrsid12807907 \tab The dating of Warenne's earldom derives from an anonymous chronicler, and two contradictory accounts by Orderic Vitalis, both written half a century after the event. Even if accurate, this would not necessarily supply a terminus for the writing of Domesday Book for we do not know how peerage creations were treated in the eleventh century. In the later middle ages, when procedures were presu mably more formalised, news of the creation of peers could be circulated months before their official elevation.
