----------------------------

From Robert were descended the territorial lords of Cottingham,whose male line terminated in the 17th of Henry III [1233].[John Burke & John Bernard Burke, Extinct and DormantBaronetcies of England, Ireland, and Scotland, Second Edition,Scott, Webster, & Geary, London, 1841, p. 486, Skipwith, ofNewbold Hall]

----------------------------

The family of Skipwith, originally written Schypwyc, denominatedfrom a town and lordship so called in the East Riding of York,descends from Robert de Estoteville, Baron of Cottingham, in thetime of the Conqueror, of whom and his descendants, the feudallords of Cottingham, Dugdale treats at great length in theBaronage. [John Burke & John Bernard Burke, Extinct and DormantBaronetcies of England, Ireland, and Scotland, Second Edition,Scott, Webster, & Geary, London, 1841, p. 486, Skipwith, ofNewbold Hall]

Note: The above source has Patrick de Skipwith descending fromRobert's father (also Robert). Burke's Peerage indicates thatPatrick was a younger son of this Robert.
