Peuerell. This family is said to have been possessed of Tinchebrai in Normandy but the name is clearly not territorial, as we never find the Norman de prefixed to it. " Sir William Pole, speaking of the branch settled in Devonshire, says it was Peverell, or Piperell; and in Domesday we find it continually spelt Piperelhis Terra Ra7mlfi Piperellus. This does not, however, illustrate its derivation. I have a fancy—I confess that it is but a fancy—that, like Meschinus and similar appellations, it had a personal signification; and that it is a corruption of Puerulus, which is almost identical with Peuerellus, as we find it written in the Anglo-Norman Pipe and Plea Roll.". R. PlancJiL
Ralph and William Peverel are both found among the tenants in capite of Domesday, but very unequally portioned. While Ralph's barony comprised sixty-four knights' fees, William held one hundred and sixty-two, including the Honour and forest of the Peke in Derbyshire, with the greater part of the town of Nottingham. He was likewise entrusted with the custody of its castle, then newly built "on the site of the old Danish fort that had previously crested ' the dolorous rock' (as it is called by an ancient writer) overhanging the river Lean." —Ibid.
The Conqueror's singular favour towards him is easily explained. He was, by all accounts, his son * by a noble and beautiful Saxon lady, the daughter of Ingelric, whom he had given in marriage to Ralph Peverel, on condition that her base-born child should bear her husband's name. Another and more probable version makes her already Ralph's wife at the time this son was born. " Ingelrica (as Leland calls her), to atone for past vices, founded at Hatfield Peverell a college of secular Canons, dedicated to St. Mary Magdalene. Here she spent the remainder of her days, till her death in iioo, and was buried in the chancel, where her effigy, cut in stone, was to be seen (in Weever's time)
* Both Freeman and the Rev. R. Eyton deny the fact the former contenting himself with rejecting it, as " an altogether uncertified and almost impossible scandal," with contempt and indignation the latter adducing arguments too lengthy to be here reproduced, and which, I must confess, have failed to convince me.
