Families covered: Hussey (Housé) of Harting, Hussey of Saperton, Hussey of Tidcombe
Berry describes the coat of arms of this family as "Erm. three bars gu.". This suggests that there may have been an early connection between this family and that shown on Hussey05. | |||||||||||||||

Berry identifies Margaret's husband as Reginald de Lattay and shows the daughters of the above Nicholas as Constance (m1. Hugh Pagenham, m2. Sir Reginald Bray), Catherine (dsp), Mary (m.

The following connection is speculative but it looks a reasonable supposition that this Geoffrey was the Geoffrey (a 1198), son of Henry, who was father of the following Geoffrey. The following comes from VCH (Wiltshire, vol 16 (Kinwardstone Hundred), Tidcombe). | |||||||||||||||
