Profile

Tumi was listed first among the nine men whose houses in the city of York had fallen into the hands of Robert Malet in 1086. Presumably they were all burgesses. The veiled suggestion that he was the same man as the king’s thegn in Worcestershire (Williams 1988: 24) is implausible. More interesting is the recurrence of the personal name Tumi in York in 1066, eighty years after the appearance of a York moneyer with the same name (PASE: Tuma 1–2).
