	The English Elite in 1066 - Gone but not forgotten Author - Donald Henson The people listed in this book formed the top levels of the English ruling elite in 1066. It includes all those who held office between the death of Eadward III (January 1066) and the abdication of Eadgar II (December 1066). There are 455 individuals in the main entries and these have been divided according to their office or position: the royal family, earls, bishops, abbots and abbesses, the greater thanes (with lands over £40 and officials in the King's household), sheriffs, royal chaplains, moneyers, foreigners settled in England and Englishmen in exile. For many of these individuals, we have only the barest outline of their existence, but for some we can provide some detail..... some detail. The following information, where available, has been listed for each person: What is known of their life; Their landed wealth; The early sources in which information about the individual can be found; Modern references that give details about his or her life. A series of appendices provide detailed information about particular topics or groups of people. 17 Tables 10 Family Trees ISBN 1-898281-26-2 9¾" x 6¾" (248mm x 170mm) - paperback 272 pages
