Botulfi de Culfo” to Leeston, on the request of “Matildis uxoris meæ”, as donated by “Willielmus de Valeines pater predictæ uxoris meæ”, by undated charter, sealed by “sigilllo Wydonis patris mei”[204].

Guy & his wife had one child: (1) WILLIAM de Verdun (-after 1210). The Complete Peerage states that "William de Verdon and his wife Maud, sister of Isabel, wife of Osbert de Wachesham" are named in a lawsuit concerning land at Cransford, Suffolk, dated 1205/06, but does not cite the primary source[208]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Willelmus de Verdum" holding a fourth part of one knight’s fee "in Culfho" in Lancashire in [1210/12][209]. “Willielmus de Verdune” confirmed the donation of “ecclesiæ S.
