Cheping tenuit de rege E ... = Ralph also holds Knowl
and Oidelard [holds it] from him . Chipping held it from
King Edward ...

& Macaulay, G C (editor): 1895 & 1908 (reprint): Chronicles
of Froissart (Globe Edition): Macmillan and Co (London)::
edited and abridged
This is not the best edition to work from; abridged,
modernised spellings, some errors corrected ... rather
than having these things pointed out in footnotes to
an 'accurate' text. But it's the edition we have!
The translation by John Bourchier, Lord Berners, was made at
the command of Henry VIII, published in parts from 1523-25.
'Here begynneth the first volum of sir Johan Froyssart: of
the cronycles of Englande, Fraunce, Portyngale,
Scotlande, Bretayne, Flau~ders, and other places
adioynynge. Translated out of Frenche into our maternal
englysshe tonge by Johan Bourchier, knight, lorde Berners: At
the co~maundement of oure most highe redouted souerayne
lorde kyng Henry the viii., kyng of England and of Fraunce
and high defender of the christen faythe, etc. ...'
Froissart, born about 1337 died about 1410 was a
french chronicler during the Hundred Years War, covering
the period 1325-1400. They are a literary work rather than
a reliable history, giving a faithful view of the period and
the spirit of chivalry.

Moody 1862: source
It is sometimes difficult to understand Moody's
interpretation of the Domesday entries; the problem is not
made any easier by his use of Hundreds which do not
necessarily match those of VCH, and ecclesiastical parishes
where we are using civil parishes. Use the references in
the spirit in which they have been entered, as a possible
guide to further information about a place, but the reader
must interpret Moody and other sources of Domesday
survey information himself.
