Text from VCH Wiltshire re "Little Somerford/Somerford Mauduit (A P Baggs, Jane Freeman and Janet H Stevenson, 'Parishes: Little Somerford', in A History of the County of Wiltshire: Volume 14, Malmesbury Hundred, ed.

- 1086 Gunfrid Mauduit held the manor of LITTLE SOMERFORD or SOMERFORD MAUDUIT of the abbey. (fn. 46) The manor may have passed with Nippred manor in Tisbury to Gunfrid's son Walkelin (fl. 1120 X 1130), (fn. 47) and c. 1141 Malmesbury abbey acknowledged that Walkelin's son Ancelin held it for ½ knight's fee. (fn. 48) Ancelin Mauduit, presumably another, held the manor in 1211–12. (fn. 49) It passed to Robert Mauduit (fl. 1212) and was held by his relict Beatrice Mauduit (fl. 1250) in 1242–3. (fn. 50) Sir John Mauduit (d. 1302), possibly the grandson of Robert (fl. 1212), was granted free warren in his Little Somerford demesne lands in 1254, and was succeeded by his nephew Sir John Mauduit (fn. 51) (d. 1347), who was granted free warren there in 1345. That Sir John was succeeded by his relict Agnes (fn. 52) (d. 1369), who married secondly Thomas de Bradeston, Lord Bradeston (d. 1360). Agnes's heir was her and Sir John Mauduit's grandson, Sir William Moleyns (fn. 53) (d. 1381), from whom the manor passed in the direct male line to Sir Richard (d. 1384) and Sir William (fn. 54) (d. 1425). William was succeeded by his relict Margery (d. 1439) (fn. 55) and granddaughter Eleanor Moleyns (d. 1476), who married Sir Robert Hungerford, Lord Hungerford and Moleyns (attainted 1461, d. 1464), and secondly Sir Oliver Manningham (d. 1499). (fn. 56). In 1460 the manor was conveyed to feoffees as security for money borrowed to pay Robert's ransom when he was a prisoner in Aquitaine, (fn. 57) but Eleanor and Sir Oliver held it in 1472, (fn. 58) and Sir Oliver apparently held it for life after Eleanor's death. (fn. 59) It reverted to Eleanor's granddaughter Mary Hungerford, suo jure Baroness Botreaux, Hungerford, and Moleyns (d. c. 1533), who married first Edward Hastings, Lord Hastings (d. 1506), and secondly Sir Richard Sacheverell (d. 1534). Mary's heir was her son George Hastings, Lord Hastings (cr. earl of Huntingdon 1529, d. 1544), from whom the manor passed to his son Francis, earl of Huntingdon (d. 1560). It was apparently held by Francis's relict Catherine (d. 1576), (fn. 60) and in 1572 she and their son Henry, earl of Huntingdon, sold it to Sir Christopher Hatton, (fn. 61) who sold it before 1581 to Sir Edward Hungerford (d. 1607). The manor passed like Corston manor in Malmesbury to Cecily, countess of Rutland, to Sir Anthony Hungerford, and to Sir Edward Hungerford, (fn. 62) who in 1682 sold it to Sir Stephen Fox
