The Le Franceys Family is the earliest known progenitors of the Westmoreland Line. Given the Norman spelling of the line, I have long hypothesized that these Le Franceys are descended from Gilbert Le Francais mentioned in the Battle Abbey Roll, or some such similar person. A testable solution exists to this end - Gilbert Le Franceys had at least one son, Richard, who inherited land and title in Haddon and took the name of the estate - Vernon. The descendants of Sir Richard Vernon (son of Gilbert Le Franceys) has been unbroken for 6 centuries. Hypothetically, the Westmoreland DNA can be compared against Vernon DNA to see if there is a match. If there is, then it would prove that hypothesis correct, if not, the hypothesis must be rejected.
