of gold and, in the 9th of the same monarch [1163], was sheriff of the cos. Somerset 
and Dorset. In three years afterwards, this Robert, upon the assessment of the aid for 
marrying the king's dau., then levied, certified his knight's fees, veteri feoffamento, to 
amount in number to seventeen, for which, in the 14th of Henry II [1168], he paid £7 
1s. 8d., that is 8s. 4p. for each knight's fee. In the 22nd of the same Henry [1176], he 
again enjoyed the sheriffalty for the same cos., and continued in office for five years, 
and one half of the sixth year following. This feudal lord d. in 1228, leaving in minority,
