| We originally launched this page as 'Holland2' and (in part) spelt the family name as 'Holland' rather than 'Holand'. We retitled the page on 10.10.2003 to make it clear that this page and its continuations were nothing to do with Holland1, in the Continental section of the database, which covers the Counts of Holland. | |||||||||||||||

| The suggestion that Maud may be of this family is reported by Vivian & TCP (Swynnerton) but that appears to have confused the Thomas de Swynnertons. The implication is that her father may have been the same person as Sir Robert de Holland of Yoxhall but if that was the case then the Swynnerton records have confused the Matildas & Thomases. | |||||||||||||||
