Harold de Vaux was born about 1065 in Vaux near Falaise, Normandy, France and died Pentney, Freebridge Lynn, Norfolk, England
Harold de Vaux, Lord of Vaux, in Normandy, having for religious purposes conferred his seigneury upon the abbey of the Holy Trinity at Caen, came into England accompanied by his three sons, Hubert, Ranulph, and Robert. [John Burke, History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. IV, R. Bentley, London, 1834, p. 100, Martin, of the Wilderness, Family of Vaux]
When William took command, he was quick to reward the Norman Nobles who had supported him. One of these was Robert Bigod, whose family later became the Earls of Norfolk. Having thus been given immense areas of the Kingdom, he put Robert de Vaux in charge of the Manor of Pentney, and it was he who founded the Augustinian Priory there in the 12th Century.
