Life History

Notes

• "Elsing is a village and civil parish in the English county of Norfolk. It is situated some 6 miles north-east of the town of East Dereham and 12 miles north-west of the city of Norwich. ... The village is named after a Danish chieftain, “Elesa”, whose image appears on the village sign together with his hunting hound. In mediaeval times, Elsing was a thriving town with a population of over a thousand. It had its own market and guildhall. The church of St Mary, built in 1347, has the widest pillarless nave in East Anglia. There is a brass commemorating the life of Sir Hugh Hastings, the Lord of the Manor. The Hastings family built the moated Elsing Hall in 1470."

  Some genealogies or historical commentaries have varying dates for the Hastings individuals.  More than one have Hugh Hasitngs, 14th Lord, and his wife Catherine LeStrange born on dates form 1505 to 1588, with the matching parents and lineages bearing accommodating dates!
