Note:
William Perkins was the first Lord of Ufton Robert or Ufton Court in Berksire. Estates in feudal times were held subject to higher service or authority. The king could confiscate it, often lands were held in fealty to the church. That was called an advowson. As early as 1411, William was named in the Diocesan Register as holding Ufton Robert. He was also Bailiff of Humphry Plantagent, Duke of Gloucester, a DeSpencer. A deed in 1424 between him and John Collee was not the source of his title but a settlement on his wife who might have been a Collee. In 1451 the advowson was presented to his son, Thomas, indicating the death of William. The village of Ufton Nervet is 7 miles from Reading. The ancestral home is used by the Berkshire County Schools. It was used as a hospital during WW2. One takes A4 out of Reading' 7 miles to Newberry, turn left at Jack's Booth (a pub). Go 3 miles to Ufton Nervet and inquire for the Ufton Nervet Parochial School. These directions were given by a Judge Perkins from his visit to Ufton Court. Hillmorton is described as having been a small village but now has become surrounded by the city of Rugby. Hillmorton is considered a section of Rugby and does not have a post office of its own. Rugby is just east of Coventry in a beautiful part of the Midlands.

Was baliff to Humphrey Plantagent, Duke of Gloucester.
First time armorial bearings in the family appear.
1427 and several times served as excheator for co Berkes and Orxon and the ecclesiastrail union of Ufton Robert and Ufton Richard of Nervet.
