Thanks to Curt Hofemann (in a post-em) for the excerpts from Sanders below:

The flwg is from Sanders, I.J., _ ENGLISH BARONIES A STUDY OF THEIR ORIGIN 
AND DESCENT 1086-1132_, (Oxford University Press, London, first published 1960, 
Reprinted lithographically, from corrected sheets of the first edition 1963): 

Part I Baronies, p. 89. 
TOTNES DEVON
The estates which Juhel de Totnes held in Domesday Book later formed part of the 
barony of Totnes. It is stated that when William the Conqueror died, in 1087, Juhel 
was expelled from Totnes, which was granted by William II to Roger I de Nonant. This 
finds support from the fact that in 1091 Roger's gift of the church of St. Mary, Totnes, 
to the abbey of SS. Sergius and Bacchus, Angers, was confirmed by the king; this was 
confirmed by King Henry I in 1102-5. He is also called Juhel fitz Alfred or Juhel de 
Mayenne.
