Personal Note this profile was destroyed and had to be rebuilt from scratch. Not only that had to reload the doomsday images etc. I created this profile and any suggestion that anything here is incorrect is incorrect.
Doomsday Book Entry:
ROBERT [* OF HERILS *] HOLDS FROM HIM. In a confirmation of Edward II to Lenton Priory, which includes what purports to be William Peverel's original charter (Monasticon Anglicanum, v. p. 111 no. I; see 10,24 William's note), but which includes gifts that were perhaps made subsequently, a certain Geoffrey de Heriz gave two-thirds of the lordship tithes in Stapleford. This probably implies that the 1086 holder was Robert de Heriz, who has also been identified in Derbyshire; see VCH Nottinghamshire, i. p. 229. Robert de Heriz himself gave two-thirds of the tithes of Hesburna (unidentified) and Ossecropht (Oxcroft in Bolsover, Derbyshire) to Lenton Priory. His place of origin was Hérils, said to lie in the French commune of Maison, in the canton of Trévières, in the département of Calvados; see Keats-Rohan, Domesday People, pp. 376-77.
