In relation to Hervey de Vesci marrying the widow of Adam Fitzswein whereupon he had to pay a 10 shilling fine to the King:-

Notes and Queries 6th Series Volume VII of January 20, 1883 states that:

“Hervey De Vesci – Hervey (Nephew of Ivo and grandson of Robert de Vesci) is mentioned by the Viscount of Westmorland in the Pipe Roll 31 Hen. I. As his name does not again occur in that form in the records of the counties of Westmorland or Cumberland..."

It would appear that Hervey de Vesci may have been the grandson of Robert de Vesci and not his son.

A portion of Wennington, Farleton and Tunstall, formed the estate of Swain fitz Alreic, togehter with other large estates in Cumberland and Yorkshire, presumably by grant from Henry I. He was a benefactor to the Priories of Pontefract and Nostel, and died before 1130, at which date his widow had been married to Hervey de Veceio [Pipe Rolls, 32 Henry I]. His son and heir was Adam Fitz Swain, who founded the Priory of monk-Bretton, and died before 1159 [Pipe Roll, 5 Henry II].
