William Farrer does in *Honors & Knights Fees* vol.III, 281-285 and see also
81-82. This is one of the references promised. The other to VCH Oxford I
will leave as Ronny Bodine seems to have provided that information.

I have just had an opportunity to check the VCH Oxford. In vol.6 221, 303,
41 etc. it gives Agnes de Say as wife of Richard de Humez. She was the
daughter of Jordan de Say and Lucy de Rumilly (or de Aulnay) daughter of
Robert de Rumilly.
