  SOURCE: Geneology of the Bostwick Family in America, compiled by Henry Anton Bostwick (1901)
  
  OSMER, owner of Shipbrook, Davenham, Bostok, Audlem, Crewe, all in Chester (Cheshire) County, Englad, as entered in the "Domesday Book," 1080 A.D. as having held these places at the time of the Conquest by William of Normandy.
  
  Bostock was Botestock, according to Damden, and was derived from the manor of the same name, on River Dan in Cheshire.
  
  (p. 20, Source)
  "Camden's Brittanica, Vol 111, p. 44, ed. of 1806), in speaking of Middlewish says: "Whence the Dan runs by Bostocke, antiently Botestoc, the ancient seat of the famous and knightly family of the Bostokes, whcih by marriage with Anne, the only daughter of Ralph, son and heir of Sir Adam de Bostock, Knight, came, together with a fine esate, to John Savage. From this antient family of the Bostocks, as from a fruitful stock, issued a numerous race of the same name, which spread themselves in the counties of Chester, Berks, Salop and elsewhere."
  
  "Botestock is compounded of two Saxon words: Bote, (Latin compensatio) is a term used in old English law signifying "recompende", compensation, satifaction or amends... Stock, Saxon "stoc", is equivalent to the Latin "Stirps" or "truncus", a root or trunk...Botestock, therefore, means a place given in compensation or as a recompense for some things."
  
  The name was written BOTESTOCH in the great Doomsday Book, compiled by order of William the Conqueror, and it is not until long after his time that it is found spelled Bostock, as it is now written in England."

  At the time of the conquest of England by the Normans he was Lord of Bostock, Shipbrook, Davenham, Audlem, Claverton, Crewe, a part of Edlaston, a part of Wybunbury-cum-Frith, a part of Leftwich, a part of Wistaston, two hedged enclosures for deer, an eyrie for hawks, houses in Chester, and a saltpit in Northwich, all in Cheshire.
  Most of these lands were granted after the conquest to Richard de Vernon, Baron of Shipbrook, as recorded in the Domesday Book.
  
  It is probable that after confiscation of his lands Osmer and family were allowed to live in the manor of Bostock, one of his smaller manors, and either allowed to retain it, or hold it doing feudal service to the Vernons.
  
  Quote "Richard de Vernon holds a series of estates including Botestock. Osmaer held it. There is 1 hide that pays geld. The land is for 2 ploughs. They are there with 3 radmen and 2 serfs, and 2 acres of meadow, and 2 acres of wood. In 1066 it was worth 3/-, now 10/-. He found it waste."
