Saswalo, Castellan of Lisle

[Alan]

The name Saswalo is very rare and I´ve only found three in the time period we are discussing. The first is Saswalo Castellan of Lisle also known as the Thieron de Fresnes or Saswalo de Phalempin. The second is Saswalo de Bouville at the time of Domesday and a Saswalo de Phalempin shown in a database of Crusaders to the Holy land. The third and the first cannot be the same person as the first would be in his eighties and therefore too old to fight. It is therefore more probable the third was probably grandson to the original so as the name is so uncommon it is believed that all three are relatives. The third Saswalo is believed to have been born circa 1058 and is the same time period as Sewallis de Ettington and ancestor of the de Shirleys. there are three potential people who could be the descendants of this family all named Sewall

1 Sewall de Shirley alive in 1252
2 Sewall de Bovill ( Archbishop of York died 1258
3 Sewal Lord of Tuderinton died 1258
There is no known burial place for the individuals 1 and 3, again the name is well recorded but not common as a forename and there is a strong possibility they are the same person and the surname of individual No. 2 ie Bovill is a known spelling variation of Bouville
