We had been discussing the 1379 poll tax of Howdenshire, Yorkshire, England which contained the names of several Sissons. I have found that Howden is only "nine miles from Snaith." This would make it seem more logical that our Sissons did come from Snaith, since the poll tax was in the same shire. What is meant by "Snaith in the wapentake of Osgoldcross, liberty & bailiwich ....?" I have never seen the word wapentake before. I know what a bailiwick is, but I may have to write to my English friend, to explain wapentake. I hope you are able to go to the site of the (Norman) church in Snaith. I would also suggest viewing the (Church Crawler site) by Phil Draper. Almost every Parish has an old Norman church, and they are very beautiful. Mary Jo
