Dear Group,
An internet site called Surname DB mentions a Geoffrey de Jorz, which
was
dated 1234, in the "Place Names Book
of Northumberland", during the reign of King Henry III, known as "The
Frenchman", 1216 - 1272.
But which places names book is it?
Or which place of Northumberland it could be?
Any hints welcome.

Thanks,
Fred.

Burton Joyce in Nottinghamshire, derives from Geoffrey de Jorz, who
held the manor in 1235. See: A key to English Place-Names

Thanks John,
I knew this link between Jorz and Notts
So that could be a misleading between Notts and Northumberland.
But, in Notts Place-names books, I didn't see any thing saying: "Geoff. de
Jorz known as Frenchman, 1216 - 1272".
That 's rather interesting because I have completly independant source
(French-Norman doc.) showing some de Jorz as knight essoiner, in France in
13th century.
