Profile

The difficult name Atilic occurs only once in DB, Alwine and Atilic holding two manors at Cooksey in north Worcestershire. The entry originally had Alwine as the sole owner, with 7 Atilic being an addition which runs into the margin, the verb changed to the plural tenuerunt over an erasure (presumably tenuit), and the number of manors also changed. Two Norman subtenants of Urse d’Abitot held the 2 hides of Cooksey in 1086, and two distinct manors, Great Cooksey and Little Cooksey, can be traced later in the Middle Ages (VCH Worcs. III, 232).
