Thomas le Despenser who died c. 12107, was presumably the donor to [Garendon] abbey of 10 bovates in Burton on the Wolds, Leics., of the fee of Asketil de Berges,...' [Farrer, HKF II:58, citing Pipe Roll 12 Hen II (1166), p. 70; 22 Hen II, p. 185; and Cal. Chart. Rolls iv. 475]. Again, this Asketil de Berges held the Advowson of the church of Prestwold,and his alias was Anketil de Prestwald, who Farmham states the family of that name in that exact time period, bore "fretty gules" as part on said arms and as I have shown he is also the son of Hugh de Berges who was amerced a fine along with his kin Thomas Despenser in 1166 for trespass, who in the record was referred to as "Hugh de Berc"). Anketil de Prestwald /Berges was the father of Thomas de Prestwold who was presented in 1238 by Hugh Despenser II, to the church of Cossington. Robert

Thanks for the information. I have record of the Nele family and the past generations of owners at Prestwold. They weren't relevant to me only that Francis Nele was married to his second wife Jane Hall who, by her second marriage to Sir Henry Skipwith, was my ancestor. However, Francis Nele's first wife Faith Kempe of Olantigh, Kent, was the great aunt of Amy Kempe who married Jane Hall Skipwith's grandson Sir Henry Skipwith, 1st Bt's wife. The family is quite intermingled irregardless. I'll see if I can find the breakdown on Prestwold and see if the information I have goes back to the Despensers you have presented.
