1. [S1393] Eve (Eva) FITZ WARIN: NOTE: Many genealogists thought that Eva/Eve was a daughter of Matthew de Torrington, as exemplified by the post to SGM below:
   
   Thomas de Tracy's father can be readily identified as being Henry de Tracy (died 1274), Baron of Barnstaple, Devon, which Henry was the son and heir of Oliver de Tracy (died 1210), of Barnstaple, Devon, by Eve, probable daughter and co-heiress of Matthew de Torrington. [Douglas Richardson, soc.genealogy.medieval, 1 Dec 2004]
   
   HOWEVER further research by Douglas Richardson indicates that Eva/Eve was a daughter of Fulk FitzWarin, as given below:

   Dear Carolyn
   
   Thank you for your good post.
   
   In answer to your question, when I mentioned the evidence in the Curia Regis Rolls which proved Eve's identity and parentage, I was speaking of Eve, daughter of Oliver de Tracy, NOT his wife, Eve. As I stated in my original post, Eve de Tracy the daughter married Warin de Bassingbourne. The evidence to prove this marriage is found in Curia Regis Rolls. So, no I haven't changed my position on this marriage.
   
   Regarding the senior Eve, wife of Oliver de Tracy and Thomas de London, it has commonly been thought that she was daughter and co-heiress of Matthew de Torrington. This was thought probable, as Eve's son, Henry de Tracy, is known to have had a one-fifth interest in the Torrington family estates. However, in recent time, I've determined that Henry de Tracy bought his share of the Torrington estates from one of the Torrington heirs. This would necessarily exclude Henry's mother Eve from being one of the Torrington heiresses.
   
   My research indicates that Eve, widow of Oliver de Tracy and Thomas de London, was instead a probable daughter of Fulk Fitz Warin, of Whittington, Shropshire, by his wife, Hawise de Dinan. Eve's maritagium appears to have consisted of land in Westbury, Wiltshire, which property she held under the Fitz Warin family. The name Eve runs in the Fitz Warin family. Also, we know that Eve de Tracy had a daughter Hawise de London, presumably named in honor of her mother, Hawise de Dinan. Chronology, naming patterns, and land ownership are all agreeable.
   
   If anyone has particulars which would shed further light on the Fitz Warin-Tracy-London connection, I'd appreciate hearing from them here on the newsgroup. Needless to say, this is a most interesting group of families. I imagine most posters here on the newsgroup descend from these people.

2. [S1394] Feudal barony of Barnstaple, source - Sanders, I.J., English Baronies, Oxford, 1960 - The other de Totnes sister, whose name is unknown, married Henry de Tracy (d.pre-1165), leaving a son and heir Oliver de Tracy (d.circa 1184), who in 1165 was charged scutage on 25 knights' fees for his moiety. In 1166 he declared 23 1/3 and in 1168 30 1/2 knights' fees. Oliver left a son and heir Oliver II (d.1210).
3. [S506] Note: The half of the township of Leigh which remained after the grant to the
   priory of Monkton Farleigh in 1204 was by 1242 divided into two parts, each
   reckoned at ? fee. (Footnote 1Cool Robert de Maners held one directly of the heirs
   of William de Lanvaley, but the other had been three times subinfeudated,
   and was held by Eve de Bassingburn of Eve de Tracy of Fulk FitzWarin of the
   heirs of de Lanvaley. (Footnote 19) Eve de Bassingburn had acquired her part of
   Eve de Tracy in 1241.
