  Excerpt from the le Strange Records: a cronicle of the early le Stranges of Norfolk and the Marches of Wales A.D. 1100 - 1310; by Hamon Le Strange, Published 1916.
  
  JOHN le STRANGE
  
  Period 1135-1178
  
  Up to now we can trace the paternal pedigree of John le Strange (I) back to his father Roland in the early years of the twelfth century. However, Eyton has shown that on
  his mother's side there is good warrant for giving him an ancestry of three generations, through which he inherited the greater part of his Hunstanton estate; and, further, that it is to this inheritance that we must look if we wish to account for the great ascendancy and territorial influence of the family during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Much of this proof is derived from a deed whereby John le Strange (I) gave a part of his Norfolk estate, viz. Edgefield in the Hundred of Holt, to Binham Priory. The deed is from the Binham Chartulary found in the British Museum. It is headed therein by the words "Cart a Johannis le Strange, de terra de Egefeld que fuit quondam terra Radulfi de Hunstaneston".
  
  Eyton shows that this grant must have been made not later than January 1174, as the Chartulary from which it is quoted contains also a recital and confirmation of it, made at the petition of John le Strange by William Turbus, Bishop of Norwich, who died on January 16, 1174. The grant proves that three generations previously Edgefield had been in the possession of Ralph de Hunstanton, and since then successively in that of his sons, Simon and Reginald le Brun, after whom it came to John le Strange (I) as the direct heir. Simon and Reginald must therefore have died without issue, and John must have been the son of their sister, not named in this deed, but whose name, Matilda, is mentioned by John in his grant to the Priory of Castleacre.
  
  Ralph de Hunstanton, the maternal grandfather of John le Strange (I), is undoubtedly the same as Ralph fitz Herluin, recorded in Domesday as a vassal of Roger Bigod, holding land under him at Hunstanton and Tottington. Thus it appears that, at the period of Domesday, Ralf fitz Herluin was in possession of a considerable estate spread over nine or ten parishes in the county of Norfolk. Eyton imagines that Ralf's fee was afterwards greatly increased by subinfeudation from William de Albini, the Pincema (or Butler) of King Henry I.
  
  Roland le Strange, who witnessed the St. Florent Charter circa 1122 (as dicussed under his Life Sketch), left four sons, viz. (i) John (I), who succeeded him; (2) Hamon; (3) Guy, and (4) Ralph. As far as is known Roland possessed no property elsewhere than in Norfolk; yet, early in the reign of Henry II, we find that at least three of his sons were enfeoffed of land in Shropshire, though, curiously enough, the eldest brother was the last to receive a grant there, perhaps because he already held five knights' fees of old feoffment in Norfolk under William, Earl of Arundel.
  
  How are we to account for this transfer of a whole family across England, from Norfolk to Shropshire? Evidently it was owing to the necessities of the King. The le Stranges were not the only family dealt with in this way. Alan fitz Flaald, ancestor of the fitz Alans, and, like Roland le Strange, of Breton or Angevin origin, had received a grant of the Honour of Mileham in Norfolk. After the forfeiture of the estates of Robert de Belleme, Earl of Shrewsbury, in 1102, Henry I invested Alan fitz Flaald with the Honour of Warin, Sheriff of Shropshire, which not only included lands in that county, but also in those of Stafford, Warwick, and Sussex.
  
  Clearly Henry II pursued the policy, initiated by his grandfather, of supplanting the Domesday nobility, and strengthening his hold of the sceptre, by importing from his foreign province of Anjou new and able leaders attached to his own person. Along the Welsh border it was especially necessary for him to have loyal and trusty vassals, and here, consequently, he planted the fitz Alans and le Stranges, and other families of Breton or Angevin origin, to uphold the interests of his Crown during his frequent and prolonged absences on the Continent. Next to the fitz Alans the le Stranges became perhaps the most important family in the middle part of the Welsh March.
  
  Eyton pays a tribute to the Le Strange's ability and loyalty which I cannot refrain from quoting. He says: As a race they were distinguished for their abilities in field and Council. They were distinguished yet more for the most steadfast loyalty. The feoffments of John, Guy, and Hamo le Strange by Henry Fitz-Empress and William Fitz Alan (I) were tributes to men of ascertained ability. For three long-lived and successive generations the Heads of this House were indefinitely trusted by contemporary Kings. For the same period no le Strange ever betrayed such trust, or was suspected of betraying it. This is a record of which any family may well be proud.
  
  The first of the four brothers to receive lands in Shropshire was, apparently, the second son, Hamon. The Testa de Nevill or Liber Feodorum, containing returns of those who held of the king in capite from Richard I to Edward I, supplies the earliest evidence that this Shropshire grant was made in the reign of Henry II.
  
  John le Strange (I) lived through the whole of the troublous reign of Stephen (1135-54), and during the first twenty-four years of the reign of Henry II. In Hunstanton he inherited two distinct manors, one from his father Roland, and another through his mother Matilda. He must have succeeded his father towards the close of the reign of Henry I, as his name appears as a witness to a grant by William fitz Alan and his wife Christiana of land in Sheriff Hales to Haughmond Church.
  
  Eyton shows cause for believing that this deed belongs to the period before 1138, since in that year fitz Alan was exiled from Shropshire and deprived of his estates. At that period John le Strange held no fiefs in Shropshire; the large possessions which the family subsequently possessed in that county all date from the reign of Henry II, or shortly before it, a reward doubtless for their services to the Empress Matilda and her son during the usurpation of Stephen.
  
  The Breton (or Angevin) connection of the family is emphasised by their loyalty to the house of Anjou; hence the Cheswardine grant by Henry before 1154, and the subsequent solid establishment of the family in Shropshire.
  
  Guy did not long survive his elder brother John, with whom he had been so closely associated through life; John died before Michaelmas 1178, and Guy must have followed him in little more than a year.
