    Robert Vavasour of Haselwood A vavasour was the vassal or tenant of a baron, one who held their tenancy under a baron, and who also had tenants under him.
    
    Sir Robert le Vavasour, High Sheriff of Nottingham, 21st of Henry III, 1236, and of Derby from 1247 to 1254. King John in the 5th of his reign, 1204, granted him free warren in Werverdale, and that he might there make a park if he pleased; he had likewise the custody of the Honour of Peverel. In the 9th of King John he paid a fine of 1200 marks and two palfreys that his daughter Maud, then widow of Theobald Walter, might be married to Fulke FitzWarine. Robert le Vavasour died 38th of Henry III, 1254. (It seems that King John made Robert le Vavasour and Fulke FitzWarine both pay him 1200 marks and two palfreys for the marriage of Maud and Fulke.) Robert le Vavasour married Juliana, daughter of Thomas de Ros of Steeton, County York.
