Norman feudal baron
Serlon de Burci was a Norman of the eleventh century. After the Norman conquest of England, he became a feudal baron and major landowner in south-west England.[1] His feudal barony had as its caput the manor of Blagdon in Somerset.[2][3] He is recorded in the Domesday Survey of 1086.[4][5]
He is thought to have originated in Burcy, Calvados.
Family
Serlo's daughter and heiress Geva married twice, her second husband being William de Falaise.[6] Robert FitzMartin was her son by her first marriage to Martin de Turribus. His other daughter was sent to Shaftesbury Abbey to which the abbey received the endowment of Kilmington.
