Baron Aguillon
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Aguillon (aka Agillon or Agilmo[2]) Barony was created when Manser Aguillon was granted the lordship of Perching (now a lost village) high on the South Downs in West Sussex.
Ancestry
The Aguillons are assumed to have originated in France. They seem to have been associated[lower-alpha 1] with the Marmion family, witnessing charters alongside them in Normandy in 1106[3] and later occupying their land in England. Manser Aguillon settled in England in the 12th Century and acquired land in Sussex. Upon the death of Sir Robert Aguillon he was holding lands in London, Middlesex, Kent, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex, Norfolk and Hertfordshire.[1]
