PREBENDARIES OF RUGMERE

First preb. in cats., 'Radulphus filius Algodi'. First certain occ. as can. 1104/5 (WD 4 fo. 19/23r-v, pd. in Rep. p. 61b), but perhaps to be identified with Ralph the can., who held Rugmere of cans.' demesne in 1086 (Domesday Book 1 fo. 127b).

Perhaps to be identified also with Raulf son of Algot, who occ. early twelfth cent. (Liber Vitae Dunelm.: Facsimile, ed. A. H. Thompson (Surtees Soc. cxxxvi) fo. 42r), and therefore perhaps brother of Edmund, preb. of Chiswick (see above pp. 40-1).
William son of Ralph
Occ. in cats. between Ralph son of Algod and Ralph de Chiltone, 'Willelmus filius eius', i.e. son of Ralph son of Algod. Perhaps to be identified with William son of Ralph who occ., not as can., [Apr. 1138 × c. 1152] (WD 4 fo. 29/33v, pd. in Rep. p. 64a). (fn. 1)
