About William de Clopton

1. Guillaume1 Peche, Lord Of Cloptunna and Dalham1 was born in Normandy, possibly, and died Aft. 1088 in Wickhambrook, County Suffolk, possibly, 10 miles southwest of Bury St. Edmunds, or at Dalham, about 4 miles north of Wickhambrook2. He married Alfwen3. She died Abt. 1088.

The Clopton Family is constantly changing, a product of human history, its evolutions and revolutions. Very little is known about these first Cloptons. There is no record of their hopes and dreams, their fears and wishes, only the niggardly scraps of information contained in a few tattered and shattered legal documents remain to mark their lives. As the new millennium stretches before us let us look back to the year 1000 and begin our journey through time as the ancient ones whisper their stories. See "Of Norman Blood"
