Families covered: Savage of Badsley Endsor, Savage of Bobbing Court, Savage of Stainesby, Savage of Ulster
| Armstrong reports that the following family derived from the Norman family Le Sauvage who come into Britain from Normandy at the Conquest (1066) and settled in Derbyshire but branched across England and, in 1177, into Ireland. Armstrong suggests that "When first borne as a surname, Le Sauvage signified, probably, not the ferocious, but the Forester, as distingusished from the inhabitants of fortified towns." | |||||||||||||||

| Armstrong identifies Sir Roger as ancestor of Savage of Bobbing Court and identifies a Sir Ralph as "the first owner of the manor whom (Halsted) has met with". As Sir Ralph was "present with King Richard I, at the Siege of Askalon in Palestine", which happened in 1153, it is likely that he was of an earlier generation than Sir Roger. Armstrong does not provide a clear connection descent until the undermentioned Sir Roger. | |||||||||||||||
