Re: Basset and Sandford (was Re: Trusted Sources)

Thanks for this detailed and useful post.

I haven't had the opportunity to look into much, but glanced at DNB
which is not so sure as EB1911 that John de Sandford was Fulk de
Sandford's brother. As you note, the 23 year death-date differential,
combined with the relative lack of overlap in their official lives
(Fulk appointed to the Dublin see, 1256 and died 1271; John appointed
to the deanery there only in 1275) is suggestive of a generational
difference as well.

I shall try to follow this up at the SoG when I am next there.
