He was most likely father of Sir Odynell de Barentone commonly calledBarenton the Saxon and was before the Conquest Lord of Wegon. He wasrelated to (or perhaps connected by marriage with) Robert de Gernon towhom the Manor and Chase of Hatfield had been granted, and at which placeOdynell certainly had property. And although the Barony of Wegon wastaken from him at the Conquest, it does not appear that he was deprivedof any of his lands in Cambridgeshire or Essex.
   It is stated that he was woodman of Hatfield Forest, and, althoughthere is no grant or charter now to shew it, this was most probably thecase. His wife was Isabella, daughter of John Wicmarc, one of the samefamily as Swene the Sheriff of Essex at the time of the Conquest.
