A charter for Daint-Pere of Chartres, which was passed before 1061, andprobably before 1053, show that at the time the family had then obtainedfull lordship of Vernon, together with its castle; and William of Vernonretained tis lordship until after the Norman conquest, his last recordedact being in 1077 when he made a grant to the monestary of Le Bec. It israre indeed that the origin of a Norman territorial family of the secondclass can be illustrated with this particularity from the independentcharters of four religious houses.
