Living in 1329 per pedigree chart for Fauconbergs of Rise.

The History and Antiquities of the Seigniory of Holderness, in the ..., Volume 1 By George Poulson; pp.402-7

From what I can gather based on pedigree charts and other sources, my Fauconberg line should look like this:

• Henry Fauconberg, a married young adult in ca.1325; married Elena daughter of Robt. de Hertford; son of
• William Fauconberg (ca.1280-ca.1301); married the daughter or sister of Lady Matilda of Goushull/Goushill/Gousel; son of:
• Henry de Fauconberg (b. ca.1254); married Unknown; son of:
• William de Fauconberg; married Ida daughter of Adae de St. Martino; son of:
• Stephan de Fauconberg; married Petronilla, daughter of Simon Fitz-Simon and Isabel daughter of Thomas de Cukeney

That is as far back as I can trace my Fauconbergs. Isabel was the daughter of Thomas de Cuckney/Cuckeney, founder (1140) of Welbeck Abbey in Nottinghamshire. The abbey was enriched by gifts from the Goushills, D’Eyncourts, Bassets, and other families from Nottinghamshire and it received a considerable grant from King Edward I. (Wikipedia)

• Isabel, daughter of:
• Thomas de Cuckeney and Emma Unknown; Thomas was the son of:
• Richard de Flemangh with his 2nd wife, Hawiſia conſanguin, Comitis de Ferrariis ux. 2. (I read this as Hawise, kinswoman of the second wife of Earl Ferrers); Richard, temp. W. (time of King William the Conqueror) was the son of:
• Joceus le Flemangh venit ad Conqueſt. Angl. (came over from Normandy with William the Conqueror)
