de Hispania, Hispaniensis.
Epaignes: Eure, arr. Pont-Audemer, cant. Cormeilles. (ie. Epaignes, Eure, Normandy)

In 1086 Alvredus de Hispania or Hispaniensis was tenant-in-chief in Herefordshire, 
Dorset, and other counties. Epaignes, occuring in the twelfth century and later as 
Hispania and Yspania, 5 1/2 kil. NE of Cormeilles, held by William FitzOsbern who 
founded the abbey there. . . . As Alveredus de Hispania he gave two thirds of the tithe 
of his manor called 'Forneguerde quod situm est juxta Guartiam in territorio comitatus 
Dorsaetai' to St. Stephen's, Caen, for the health of king William his lord and of the 
souls of his parents, a witness being 'filius Golberti de Ponte Aldomari'. Pont-Audemer 
is only 9 kil. N of Epaignes. 'Forneguerde' seems to be a scribal corruption of 
'Torneworde', ie. Trunworth, Dorset, which was held by Alvred in chief in 1086.
