  • Notes 
    • The eminent family of Vavasor, or Valvasour (as Camden has it), derived their name from their office, being formerly king's valvasor, a degree then little inferior to the baronial. "There are," say Bracton, "for the civil government of mankind, emperors, kings, and princes, magnates or valvasors, and knights."

      Sir Mauger le Vavasor is mention in Doomsday Book as holding in chief of the Percys, Earls of Northumberland, considerable manors and estates in Stutton, Eselewood, Saxall (Saxon), &c. He was father of another Sir Mauger le Vavasor. [John Burke, History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. I, R. Bentley, London, 1834-1838, p. 51, Vavasour, of Weston]
