Osberto de Caisneto Lord of Caenby & Glentham (Lincolnshire)
M, #3871, b. circa 1010
"Introduction
"Students of the medieval period have shown by their various publications that these families, and those which have similar names, such as Chedney, Chasteney, Chene, etc., have a common origin in the medieval Quesneto or Caisneto, a latinised form of Quesnai or Caisnei, a place-name in Normandy. Although there are several such places in that country, and it has been suggested that any of these might have been the original homestead, there would appear to be little doubt that ‘the fief of le Quesnay near St. Saens’ quoted by Stapleton, which is confirmed by Loyd, is probably the true one.
"The village of le Quesnay is some 8 to 10 miles west of St. Saens, and in the early part of the 11th century was part of the land held by Roger de Mortimer of Duke William. Roger’s castle of Mortuomari, some 14 miles to the east, on the Ponthieu border, was the scene of a battle in 1054, and owing to an indiscretion on his part at that time he forfeited his castle and its associated lands, including le Quesnay, and they became the property of William de Warenne. This William already held land from his father Rodolf, and this included Louvetot in the canton of Caudebec and Allouville-Bellefosse in the canton of Yvetot ; but with acquisition of Mortimer he made Bellencombre the caput of his honor. Bellencombre, which is about 8 miles northeast of le Quesnay, is situated on the river Varenne which rises just above St. Saens and fringes the oak-forest of Eawy on its way to the sea at Dieppe; and it was from a hamlet called Varenne near the mouth of this river that the name of de Warenne originated. As the use of surnames was then becoming the fashion, the holders of the ‘fief de Quesneto’ adopted that of their locality, an oak-wood, and were known as ‘de Quesneto’ or ‘de Caisneto’ and sometimes ‘de Querceto’; and, as will be seen, they remained under-tenants of de Warenne in Normandy, and later, in England for several generations.
"It has been established from the express evidence available that William de Warenne was present with Duke William at Hastings in 1066; and it may be assumed that the majority of his under-tenants accompanied him. Later charters will show that a Ralf de Caisneto (3) “came with William the bastard at the Conquest”.
"Although the earliest recorded form of the family name is found in the Domesday Book, I:17, there is a later record, from the Leger Book of Barlings Abbey in Lincolnshire, in which it is stated that an Osberto de Casneto 9) was lord of Caenby and Glentham in that county “long before the coming of the Conqueror”; and as it is well known that Edward the Confessor encouraged Normans to settle in England, it is quite possible that this statement in the Leger Book is founded upon fact. Although Barlings provides the only documentary evidence of the existance of Osberto, it is of interest to note that the Dutchess of Cleveland speaks of a Raoul and Osbern de Quesnai who are entered on the Dives Roll of the Companions of the Conqueror.
"Prior to the Domesday Survey there is nothing recorded about the activities of the family de Caisneto, but as it is there stated that they held land as under-tenants of de Warenne it is highly probable that they did so from the time of Hastings, and were probably involved with him in suppressing the numerous uprisings against Duke William. In 1077 de Warenne and his wife, Gundrada, founded a Priory of Benedictines outside their castle at Lewes in Sussex; and in 1084 a cell to this was established by him at Castleacre in Norfolk. Just prior to his death in 1088 he was created Earl of Surrey"

Later charters will show that a Ralf de Caisneto (3) “came with William the bastard at the Conquest”.
"Although the earliest recorded form of the family name is found in the Domesday Book, I:17, there is a later record, from the Leger Book of Barlings Abbey in Lincolnshire, in which it is stated that an Osberto de Casneto 9) was lord of Caenby and Glentham in that county “long before the coming of the Conqueror”; and as it is well known that Edward the Confessor encouraged Normans to settle in England, it is quite possible that this statement in the Leger Book is founded upon fact. Although Barlings provides the only documentary evidence of the existance of Osberto, it is of interest to note that the Dutchess of Cleveland speaks of a Raoul and Osbern de Quesnai who are entered on the Dives Roll of the Companions of the Conqueror.
"Prior to the Domesday Survey there is nothing recorded about the activities of the family de Caisneto, but as it is there stated that they held land as under-tenants of de Warenne it is highly probable that they did so from the time of Hastings, and were probably involved with him in suppressing the numerous uprisings against Duke William. In 1077 de Warenne and his wife, Gundrada, founded a Priory of Benedictines outside their castle at Lewes in Sussex; and in 1084 a cell to this was established by him at Castleacre in Norfolk. Just prior to his death in 1088 he was created Earl of Surrey"
"It has been stated that, inscribed on the Dives Roll are the names of Raoul and Osbern de Quesnai. Osberto de Caisneto (3871) has been mentioned in relation to the Leger Book of Barlings Abbey. It is not possible to say whether this Osberto is the Osbern de Quesnai; or if he came to England before the Conquest, as stated in the Leger Book. It may be assumed that an Osberto existed - there was no need to mention him otherwise - and that he was Lord of Caenby. A continuation of the statement in the Leger Book reveals that there was, in the time of the Conqueror, a Sir William de Caisneto (3873) lord of Caenby and Glentham, who begat, by Constance (3872) his wife, an only daughter, Adelidis (3874), whom he gave in marriage to Sir Osbert (but possibly a Sir Robert) de Cundi (44274). According to C. W. Foster [19], the facts which are certain in this story are that Alice married Robert de Condet, and that she and Roger, their son, had a lordship in Caenby and Glentham [20]. He says that while it would be easy to allow too much weight to the ‘Stemma’, it is possible that it contains a substratum of fact; and that while it may be concluded that Caenby and Glentham belonged to the de Casneto family, whose heiress married a de Condet, there is considerable confusion in the generations [21]. No relationship is given between Osberto and William de Casneto; but as they were both lords of Caenby, it may be inferred that they were of the same family [22]. No other information is available regarding the Osberto branch.
"He was found styled, Lord of Caenby and Glentham "long before the the Conquest". He founded Saint Nicholas Church, Caenby (see Chartulary of Barlings Abbey possibly held of William Maiei before 1066.)

[20] Foster, C.W. ibid- He says that the statement in the “Stemma” that Alice de Condet and Roger her son held Caenby and Glentham is confirmed by Roger’s grant to the canons of Licques, near Boulogne, of his toft of five acres with two bovates and pasture for 700 sheep in Glentham and Caenby; by the descent of the manor of Caenby to Roger’s daughter, Agnes de Condet, who married Walter Clifford senior;by the fact that Walter Clifford junior, son of Walter and Agnes, presented to the rectory of Caenby in 1235 and 1244; and by the gift to Barlings Abbey, by Maud de Clifford and William de Longspee her husband, of their manor in, and advowson of Caenby. (Mon. vii.918)
[21] Stapleton, T. Rot. Scacc. Norm. Tomus II, pp. clivv-cliv.(f) States that Emma Crispin, sister of Hesilia Crispin, was the mother of Peter de Conde, whose decendant, Robert de Conde, rendered accompt, 31 Henry I, 1131, ‘sub. tit.’ Lincoliescira of 30 marks of silver for relief of land of father.
[22] In 1086, the bishop of Lincoln held four carucates in Couenebi which were inland of his manor of Stow, and three carucates and six bovates in Glentham which were sokeland of the same manor. In 1115-18, the bishop had in the two places seven carucates and six bovates, of which Martel de Taneio held two carucates and four bovates. With this exception, the names of the bishop’s tenants in these villages are not given in any of the feudal surveys. (Linc.Rec.Soc., Vol. 27 - “Condet Family”)"
