Title: Post Conquest History and the 1st Earl of Warwick
Post by: Newberrychaser on Monday 03 December 18 00:36 GMT (UK)
I would like to invite people interested in Post Conquest and Medieval Dorset history to visit my web site. Lulworth history is evolving. Most of this history is about the Newburgh family and their collateral families; Payn, Frampton, FitzJames, Westbury, Scrope, Glastonia, Arundel, etc. just to mention a few.

The first Norman Earl of Warwick was Henry Beaumont/Newburgh.  As a Marcher Lord and Lord Gower, the king granted Henry de Newburgh the Welsh peninsula where he was credited with the founding of Oystermouth, Loughor, and Swansea Castles in Wales. (Nicholas, 1991, 512-13)
