Todd: I have a Fulk Prideaux b.1487 m.Katherine Poyntz.....Did the name FULK
come from Fulk V? Also have William Malet b.1150 Baron of Cory Malet m.Maud
Mortimer and their daughter, Hawise, m. Hugh Poyntz. My line comes frm alot of
Prideauxs'--Poyntzs'. a daughter, Elizabeth Prideaux, married one Robert
Drake about 1540's or so. (could ask how Pons Fitzsimon b.about1100 had a
son by the name of Nicholas Poyntz)
