Alfwen de Clopton

The parentage or ancestry of Guillaume Pecche (William Peccatum) is unknown and there seems to be little chance of determining his origins. It has been suggested that there was a close relationship between Guillaume Pecche and Richard de Bienfaite, progenitor of the House of de Clare in England, and that he may have entered England at the conquest in the retinue of Richard FitzGilbert, Seigneur de Bienfaite, second cousin to Duke William ‘the Conqueror’. It is known that Guillaume Pecche (William Peccatum), progenitor of the Cloptons of Suffolk and the Pecches, Barons of Bourn in Cambridge, was an undertenant to Richard de Bienfaite (FitzGilbert) at the Domesday Survey in 1086; of whom he held Clopton and Dalham in Suffolk and at Gestingthorpe in Essex. However, he was also an undertenant of Aubrey de Vere, progenitor of the earls of Oxford, at Belchamp Walter in Essex, in the immediate vicinity of Gestingthorpe; and he held at Stoke Holy Cross in Norfolk of Roger le Bigod, progenitor of the earls of Norfolk. His holding in Norfolk was held in 1242 by his great-great-grandson Gilbert Pecche, Baron of Bourn. It is not unlikely that Guillaume Pecche held lands in addition to these and it is recorded that he received a grant of Over in Cambridgeshire from the Abbot of Ramsey for life and for the life of his first wife Alfwen.
