Summary
Where ghosts have been laid or uncertain identifications made in the lists in the main body of the book, they are not included here, though in every case the doubtful form of a house is given in the Index. ‘Abbas’ was a common surname for laymen in the twelfth century: we make no attempt to list the numerous examples which have led to confusion here; nor the cases where ‘pr(esbyter)’ has been read as ‘pr(ior)’.
Car’ ‘A. priore Car'’ occ. in a very corrupt cht. of 1161Χ8 in CDF, no. 1380.
*Cotes Ralph pr. occ. prob. 1163KHgr;86 (PRO C115 A1 K2/6683, sec. x, no.9). Perhaps the Hospital (Cotes, Northants).
Denedan Hugh pr. St Augustine's, occ. 1204Χ5 (Northants F., PRO transcripts): evidently corrupt. Possibly Daventry (see p. 117).
Holen Adam pr. occ. c. 1170Χ (Ctl. Montacute, no. 110; see Monk Sherborne).
Llwythlawr Gwrgenau abb. d. 1168 (Brut, Peniarth, p. 65; Red Book, p. 149); a suggested identification with Ludlow seems very unlikely: more probably the lay abbot of a clas church.2
Neop’ John pr. of, occ. twice, mid-twelfth cent. (+1153, with Isabel, countess of Northampton, evidently wife of Gervase Paynel: cf. CP,VI, 643; HMC Rutland, IV, 165, from Belvoir ctl.).
Neuham Hugh pr. occ. 1139Χ41 (Stenton, Eng. Feudalism, 2nd edn, p. 265, from PRO E40/14,208 (original)).
St Pernit Cristina prs., occ. 1205Χ5 (Northants F., PRO transcripts); possibly Markyate (St Trinity).
