Vernon family

The Vernon family can trace their ancestry back to France before the Norman Invasion of 1066, notably in the persons of William de Vernon (alive in Normandy 1052), and his son, Richard de Vernon, Lord of Shipbroke (alive in 1086 in England). Richard was a Knight of William the Conqueror and grantee of Shipbrook, and of 14 other manors in Cheshire before the Domesday survey. He was married to Adzelia, daughter of William Peverel of Nottingham. Peverel was an illegitimate son of William the Conqueror.

The Vernons were an influential family who lived and owned much of the lands around Rode, North Rode, Rode Heath and Gawsworth in Cheshire, where many of the family are buried. The family spread far and wide in northern England mostly through marriage. William de Vernon's great-grandson, also called Richard, had married Avice, daughter and co-heir to the manor of of William de Avenell, of Haddon Hall in Derbyshire, thus adding extensive Derbyshire lands to their ownership. .... more
