Research Notes

Margaret's LNAB is currently Unknown, and more research is needed to determine her Family.

Based on the name of Lefwin, an old gedcom erroneously assigned Margaret to the family of Leofwin of HIndley, Lancashire, England. Ælfwine was the name of an ancient King of Deira, and there were several of that name living in England at this time.

Assulf had assets in Yorkshire, whereas Hindley is in Lancashire.

Assulf obtained 2 bovates in Notton from Robert, son of Lefwin. (It may be that a family tree linked Margaret to the HIndley family based on the name of Robert's father).
