I have been trying to determine the descent of the Hamons. Several sources say that Hamon the Sheriff held Titsey (John Morris-Domesday Book), while others state that it was Hamon Valoines, also called the Sheriff who held Titsey. Did is devolve to the Valoines? 1229: Hamonem de Valeines de tenement in Tychesey Thank you for your thoughts. Pat

Haimo the sheriff of Kent, more usually called Haimo dapifer, belonged to a different family, not the Norman Valoines or the Breton Valeines - his father was the rebel Haimo dentatus, seigneur of Creully & Torigny-sur-Vire.
