• The Origin of the Stewarts: Part 1
• 121
• The little group of Dol families who were about to settle in England.
• 1 Among the witnesses to one of them are Baderon and his son the Domesday tenant.
• But the one family we have specially to trace is that which held the office of "Dapifer" at Dol.
• "Alan Dapifer" is found as a witness, in 1086, to a charter relating to Mezuoit2 (a cell of St. Florent, near Dol).
• He also, as "Alanus Siniscallus," witnessed the foundation charters of that house (ante 1080) and himself gave it rights at Mezuoit with the consent of "Fledaldus frater ejus,
• " the monks, in return, admitting his brother Rhiwallon to their fraternity
• 3 He appears as a witness with the above "Badero" in No. 1152, and in 1086 as a surety with Ralf de Fougères (No. 1154).
• Mentioned in other St. Florent documents,
• 4 he is styled in one, "Dapifer de Dolo"5. And it is as "Alanus dapifer Dolensis" that he took part in the first crusade, 10976.
• This style is explained in a charter of 1095, recording a gift to Marmoutier by Hamo son of Main, with consent of his lord "Rivallonius dominus Doli castri, filius Johannis archiepiscopi",
• in which we read.
