=== Life Sketch ===
sir, Alexander I Hilton, Lord of Helton (Hilton), Baron of the Bishopric of Durham 1172
s/o Romanus Hilton &
b- abt 1150 - Hilton near Wearmouth, Durham, England
m- Agnes Vescy (she may be the the Agnes Hilton who married Germanus Tison before 1209)
d- after 1197 - Hilton, Durham, England
1172 - in deed of contract with the Prior & Convent of Durham
=== Clean Up ===
Removed Agnes de Vescy [LVDF-T4W] as a second spouse. She was born in 1247 and Alexander died in 1197.
I added her name to his first spouse Agnes de Vesky as a possible alt spelling of her name. (jmw)
=== Research ===
There is a hint that states Alexander died before his mother. The actual data records his birth as 1150 and his mother's death as 1150. She could have died in childbirth, so I will not dismiss the hint nor change the original data.
Find data/sources that will support/disprove the current data.
