HAMO DE CREVECŒUR
The Conqueror and His Companions
by J.R. Planché, Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley Brothers, 1874.

Wace speaks of a Sire "de Cregrave;vecœur," who, in company with those o f Driencourt and Briencort, followed the Duke wherever he went in the b attle. I think he might have spoken in the plural, for it is highly pro bable that two of the family were in the Duke's army.

You have already heard of Hamon-aux-Dents, or "with the teeth," who was k illed in the battle of Val-egrave;s-Dunes in 1045. He left two sons, th e eldest Hamo or Hamon, who became Dapifer to King William, and the sec ond Robert, both of whom subscribe a charter of the Conqueror to the Ab bey of St. Denis, at Paris. The latter appears to have died without leg itimate issue before Domesday was compiled. Hamo, the Dapifer, was sher iff of Kent, and one of the judges in the cause between Lanfranc and Od o, Bishop of Bayeux. He had two sons, the eldest, Robert Fitz Hamon, a p rominent personage in the reign of Rufus and of Henry I, the founder of T ewkesbury and father of Mabel, wife of Robert de Caen, Earl of Gloucest er. Of the second son, Hamo, nothing appears absolutely known, but I be lieve him to be the progenitor of that family of Cregrave;vecœur, the l ast male of which, Hamon de Cregrave;vecœur, married, temp. Richard I, M aude d'Avranches, the great heiress of Folkestone. But who then was the S ire de Cregrave;vecœur who fought at Senlac? We must hark back to exami ne that question.

Hamon-aux-Dents was Lord of Thorigny and Creulli; but, dying in rebelli on, his estates would be forfeited, and we consequently find his grands on, Robert Fitz Hamon, coming over to England with Duke William, descri bed as a young man, Lord of Astremeville, in Normandy,* [Dugdale, Mon. A ng. vol. i. p. 154] a designation soon lost sight of in the great honou r of Gloucester bestowed upon him by Rufus, his conquest of Glamorgan, a nd the lordships of a host of manors and castles seized or given to him b y Jestin ap Gurgunt for his assistance against Rhys, Prince of South Wa les, in 1091.

His father is only known as Hamo the Dapifer, or "Hamo Vice-comes," hol ding certain lands in England, but not as the possessor of any seigneur ie in Noranandy. Hasted, however, asserts that his familyname was Cregr ave;vecœur, implying, of course, his possession of a fief of that name, C regrave;vecœur-en-Auge, in the arrondissement of Lisieux, which might h ave passed to his son Hamon, Robert succeeding to Astremeville.

If Hasted had satisfactory authority for his assertion, and I have foun d nothing whatever to contradict or throw the least doubt upon it, Hamo t he Dapifer must surely have been "the Sire de Cregrave;vecœur" of the R oman de Rou. Robert Fitz Hamon, we know, had no male issue but Hamon; F itz Hamon I take to be the father of the first Robert de Cregrave;vecœu r of whom we are cognizant, who, in 1119, founded the Priory of Leeds, i n Kent, and had, by his wife Rohais, three sons, Adam, Elias, and Danie l, and a daughter named Gunnora.

He was succeeded by Daniel, who, in the 12th of Henry II, on assessment o f aid for the marriage of the King's daughter, certified to the possess ion of fourteen knights' fees "de veteri feoffemento," and his son and s uccessor, another Robert, was the father of Hamon, the last of the race a nd name, who married the heiress of Folkestone.
