Profile

Leomær 4’s estate was in central Surrey at Mitchum, where his lord was King Edward (Edward 15). Mitchum lay more than 35 miles from any other estate held TRE by someone called Leomær (or similar), and it was the only such estate to have passed to William fitzAnsculf by 1086. It is therefore probable that this was Leomær 4’s only estate. There was a 1086 subtenant of Richard fitzGilbert called Leomær (Leomær 10) who shared (with two other subtenants) an estate at Bletchingly TRW, only about 12 miles away from Mitchum, but there is no evidence to associate him with Leomær 4.
