The name Sigsten occurs only once in DB, holding 1 hide at Dawley, on the east side of the Wrekin in east-central Shropshire. The manor is identifiable as Dawley Parva (Phill. Salop. note 4,3,28), distinct from Dawley Magna, where another hide was part of Earl Edwin’s manor of Wellington a few miles to the north (Phill. Salop. note 4,1,22).Bibliography
