Turning to “Roteland” in Domesday, we find that the last name in the list of its tenants-in-chief is that of “Albertus clericus,” who holds the churches of Oakham, Hambleton, and St. Peter’s, Stamford, “cum adjacentibus terris eisdem ecclesiis ... de rege,” the whole forming a valuable estate. Again, we read under Stamford: “Albertus unam æcclesiam Sancti Petri cum duabus mansionibus et dimidia carucata terre quæ jacet in Rotelande in Hemeldune; valet x sol.” (336 _b_). Following up this clue, we recognise our man in the “Albertus clericus” who holds at “Eddintone,” in Surrey (30, 36 _b_), and doubtless also in “Albertus clericus” who held land as an under-tenant at Windsor (56 _b_). Nay, it is difficult to resist the conclusion that he is also the “Albertus capellanus” who, at the end of the Kent Domesday (14 _b_), has a page all to himself as tenant-in-chief of Newington. Thus in the official index to Domesday we find Albert entered under “clericus,” “Lothariensis,” “Albertus,” and (probably) “capellanus,” and yet, in each case, it is the same man. Regenbald, exactly in the same way, is entered under ‘Cirecestre,’ ‘presbyter’ and ‘Reinbaldus.’ In my ‘Feudal England’ I have similarly identified (p. 167) “Eustachius,” one tenant-in-chief, with “Eustachius vicecomes,” another (and with “Eustachius,” an under-tenant),[65] and “Oger,” a Northamptonshire tenant-in-chief, with Oger “Brito,” a Lincolnshire one (p. 220). In the Eastern counties the Breton founder of the house of Helion is similarly indexed under ‘Britto’ for Essex, ‘Herion’ for Suffolk, and ‘Tehelus’ for Norfolk. Small as these points may seem, their ultimate consequence is great, for they still further reduce the number of tenants-in-chief. When the history of these magnates is more fully known, it will probably be found that those who held _in capite per servitium militare_, thus excluding, of course, mere serjeants, etc., were a mere handful compared with the vast total given by Ellis and others. Albert’s Lotharingian origin becomes of special interest now that we know he was a cleric, for Mr. Freeman devoted a special appendix to “Lotharingian churchmen under Edward.”[66] Unfortunately he was not acquainted with the case of Albert. Dr. Stubbs also has dwelt on the importance, for the church, of “the increased intercourse with the empire, and especially with Lorraine,” under Edward the Confessor.[67] He alludes, without committing himself to it, to Mr. Freeman’s somewhat fanciful theory on the subject.
