Two Maud Banesters ? wifes of William Comyn and William Has

Dear John R, Claudius, Will, Douglas and others,
In
Carl Boyer III`s book Medieval English Ancestors of Certain Americans p 58 He
indicates that William Comyn died before 1140 and his wife Maud, daughter of
Thurstan Banester or Basset married 2nd William de Hastings. She is known to have
had four sons of this marriage, William, Richard, Osbert and Walter Comyn. We
know Richard recieved a grant of land in about 1144 (Northallerton Castle)
perhaps in conjunction with his marriage to Hextilda of Tynedale. As He recieved
a grant of land, We know He was born not later than 1123. If He were the
oldest son or a twin, then his mother was born not later than 1109. In Douglas
Richardson`s Magna Carta Ancestry under Elsing, We find William de Hastings b
abt 1163 -d 1226, son of William Hastings and Maud, daughter of Thurstan
Banister recieved livery of his mother`s manor of Aston. Warwickshire in 1222. If
the lady had just died, She could be no less than 113 years old, which is
incredibly unlikely. Unless Maud Banester the wife of Comyn was the aunt of Maud
Banester the wife of Hastings, each the daughter of a successive Thurston
Banester, it`s unlikely the two familes were closely related.
Sincerely,

James W Cummings
