BLG1886 starts its article with the following: "A Norman Knight, of the name of Fitz-Asor, who accompanied William, Duke of Normandy, into England at the time of the Conquest, received from the Conqueror a grant of several manors in the Isle of Wight, as may be seen by a reference in the "Domesday Book." "

Jordan de Insula or De Lisle (d by 1155)

m. Hawise

Geoffrey (Galfride) de Insula, lord of Wodyton, Isle of Wight (d 1188?)

BLG1886 reports that Galfride was alive in the time of Henry III, who r. 1216-1272, but TCP reports that he appears to have died in 1188.

m. Pernel

(i)

Bartholomew de Insula or de Lisle of Wodyton, '3rd Lord' (d 15.08.1345)

BLG1886, having noted that Bartholmew's father & grandfather had been summoned to Parliament as Barons, makes no such claim for Bartholomew & his successors. TCP reports that "according to modern doctrine" identifies Bartholomew & his successors as de jure Lords.
