INTRODUCTION
The first part of the Missenden Cartulary (Harleian MS. 3688) was published as long ago as i939 and the instahnent now issued does not complete the work. About two hundred charters and other miscellaneous entries remain for publication in a concluding volume and these deal with the Abbey properties in a large number of localities both inside and outside the county.
It is not proposed to recapitulate here what has already been stated in Part I about the form and content of the Cartulary or about the Browne Willis transcript. The latter has again been used but compar- atively few of the charters comprised in this section of the Cartulary are to be found in the Willis transcript.
I will confine myself to drawing attention to one or two salient points that have arisen in the course of editing the work, and the firat of these concerns the well.known medieval family of Windsor. When attempt- ing to date the charters numbered 413 and 414 I was puzzled by the reference therein to Waiter de Windsor as being the uncle of the gran- tor Ralf de Hodeng. The hitherto accepted pedigree of the Windsor family (G.E.C. Complete Peerage - - followed in V.C.H. Bucks. iii, =64 sub Eton) gives Ralf de Hodeng as the husband of one of the two daughters and co-heiresses of Walter de Windsor. Consequently Ralf could not possibly be the nephew of Walter, but his son-in-law. I submitted my difficulty to the late Mr Michael Hughes, whose work on the Complete Peerage and great knowledge of Buckinghamshire feudal families, made him well-qualified to deal with this conundrum, His brilliant reconstruc- tion of the Windsor pedigree I have reproduced in more or less his own words as Appendix B both for the new light it throws on an im- portant family and as an excellent example of modern genealogical research.
The second point arises in connexion with the Kimble charters. A glance at the Index will reveal that in many of these charters the name of Waiter de Hanley(or Henle) appears as a witness, which indicates that he was a person of some local importance~ and in fact in one charter
(vi)
(no. 498) reference is made to the land he held in Kimble. Who was this Walter? Is he in fact to be identified with the Walter, author of the famous thirteenth-century Treatise on Husbandry? The late Mr F. G. Gurney was strongly of the opinion that the answer to this ques~ tion was in the affirmative, and his cogent arguments are to be found in his paper 'An Agricultural Agreement of the year i345' in the Records of Buckinghamshire, vol. xiv, part 5(i945). The evidence of the Kimble charters seems to dispose conclusively of the idea that Walter had any connexion with Henley-on-Thames and to re-inforce Mr Gurney's surmise that his place of origin was Hanley in Worcester- shire; in the charters the spelling Hanley(or its variants) is six times as frequent as the spelling with 'e' in the first syllable. Nevertheless, the fact that Henley does occur in a number of different charters rules out the idea of an error in transcription by the monastic scribe. Because in the manuscripts of the Treatise the author is described as Sir Walter of Henleye(or a variant thereof) it has been assumed that he must have been born in or closely associated with a place called Henley, but these charters show that in the thirteenth century the name Hanley can on occasion appear as Henley.
The late Professor Eileen Power, in stressing the need for a new edition of the Treatise(Trans. R.H.S., 4th series, vol. xvii, io6-7) , pointed out that the question of Waiter's origin was not without importance. 'If there is one thing that a study of medieval agrarian history teaches us, it is the importance of local differences; the detail Of all these treatises must have been determined by the type of farming with which their authors were familiar. If we could establish which of' the Henleys was Waiter's birthplace, and, above all, on what manors he gained his exper- ience as a Lail iff . . we should have gone a long way towards determining which of the manuscripts represents the earliest and purest version of the text'.
The evidence of the Cartulary squares with what little is' known about the author of the Treatise. There he is described as a knight; in more than one charter Walter is referred to as 'domi nus'. He wrote his Treatise for the guidance of his sons, and the Cartulary shows that our Waiter had at least two sens, and, more imFortant, they apFear to have been landholders during their father's lifetime. In fact, the case for holding that Walter spent the greater part of his life in central Buckil~gha,~lshire
(vii)
, ? ' l
and that his Treatise is based on his experience of farming in the Kimble neighbourhood seems to be reasonably valid.
Among the witnesses to the charters, the student of surnames will find some curious and even puzzling examples. Halfwit and Pudined illustrate our ancestors' homely sense of humour; and what a trio of stolid Anglo-Saxons the names Puf, Pug, and Puke conjure up! How is one to explain William Propheta who witnesses so many Kimble charters? Wa~ he a local seer with a high reputation for successful vaticination, or did he come by his name through acting the part of some Hebrew prophet in a ~'~iracle play? Such questions are easier to ask than to answer.
For an editor of a manuscript to print his own work is su~cientiy unusual as to warrat, t a word of explanation. When in i947 this laborious enter- prise was decided on, it ~eemed to be the only practicable way of achieving publication of the Cartulary. The finances of the Society were limited, the cost of printing was high, and there was congestion of work in the printing trade. The typographical deficiences of the volume are all too obvious and all that is claimed for it is legibility. If any member receives a copy which is seriously defective in this respect, another copy will be .~ent on application to the address here given.

The first fifteen folios of the Cartulary are taken up with a tabJe of con- tents consisting of the headings of the charters. As these are usually ident- ical with the headings wiaich precede each charter, it has not seemed necessary to print the full table of contents. But fos. lxxvij to ixxxxvj of the Cartulary, containing the whole of the charters relating to Chalfo:xt St Giles and Chalfont St Peter, are missing, and, therefore, the charter headings from the table of contents are printed below.

APPENDIX B
PEDIGREE OF WINDSOR FAMILY
The pedigree of the Windsor family as revised by Mr Michael Hughes (see Ilitroduction) is as follows :
William(I) son of Walter,--
I William(II) de Windsor,--Hawise
ob. z :75 - 6 living i :85
r
I Waiter de 1Christina de
Windsor I Wiham I I
I I William(Ill) de Windsor-- Walter(II) Christiana Gunnora
b. ii6 7 de Windsor m. m, b. Iz6 9 Duncan . . . .
o.s.p, de de Hodeng after marrying Lasceles I
Gwinda Ralf de Hodeng
The William(I)-William(II)-William(III)descent is proved by Round.
The other side is helped,but not completed by Round. The learned editors of BedJ" and Bud's Pipe Rolls, Richard I, citing
Round as authority for the marriage of VTilliam(II) de Windsor to Christina de V/iham(Hncestor, vol.i, after p. z z6), overlooked his remarks in vol. ii, at p. 97, where he withdrew his statement and stated that his evidence showed no more than that Christina married a Windsor. Also, that the marriage was after i:66.
Working back from the well- known partition of the Windsor bar- ony between Wiiiiam(III)- in possession-and Walter(I!)- claming a share-in ii98 (Pipe Roll Soc., xxiii, no. i5I), we find there that they are dealing with the barony a~,i eorum. Why a~us and not pater?
William(III), as appears from the Rot. de Dora., P.R.S., xxxv, p, 35, was born in or before z I67.
Walter(II) in i Igo paid 60 marks to have the lands of his mother in Essex (P.R.S.[N.S.] 2 Richard I, p. :~2). Thelands since ::84had been in the King's hand and the revenues had been collected by the
~79
sheriff(P.R. 3 ° Henry II to z Richard ~ p. 2I). Subject .~o special and unknown circumstances, it is reasonable to argue that WaLter(lI) came of age in Ii9o, and that both his parents were dead at Michaelmas 1 I8 4. H e would thus be born in or before ii69, and would be younger than William(III). As Round says, it appears from the R.B.E., p. 35% that Christina de VC'iham married after I i66 (this is not quite conclusive): so this fits.
But if, or since, Walter(II) was no more than thirty in I I99, he could hard!y have had d~ ugaters who were married at:d active in i2o, 5 and ~2o6(Curia Regis Rolls, iii, 298 , iv, 226) still less in ~2o3(P.R. ,5 John, p. ~32). Setting this consideration aside for a n~ooment, we find in the R.B.E.,p. 3,58, in the i'i66 Carta of Robert de Hastings under Essex, Waker(I) de Windsor holding one knight's fee i,'l Swinelonde (and see P.R. z Richard I, p. 2z). Walter(IoriI) de Windsor by charter add- ressed to W. bishop of Norwich gave the church of Swinelande to Wykes Nunnery(Mo~mticon, ix,, 515 - Round seems to think this charter relates to \Vormingfold church). WorminJold was part of Walter's(II) lands(P.R., 32 ~-ien'_ T II, p. z2) :and was given by Watter(II) and Christina his mother to Wykes(Newcourt, ii, 685, cited in Morm~t, ii, 232 ). ! suggest tl~at the proof, at o~,e end, that \Valter(!I) t:ad a father Wafter(, r) who was husband of Christina, and, at the other, that Walter (!I) son of Wah:er(I) was the Walter of the partition of z I98 is complete.
Who then were Christiana and Gunnora? When Wa!ter(iI) died in or about x2o3(P.R., 5 John. pp. 97, I32) Christiana claimed only to be his heres propinquior, stating no relationship(P.R, 5 John,p. i32 ). I suggest t/:mt they were sisters cf ;walter(D[).
The charters ,from the Missende:~ Carn:lar 7 settle this point. Ralf de Hoder:.g, g."anting land in Beaconsfield to Robert de Burnham' (not the Robert of William(H) de \Vindsor's Ii66 Carta, of course), descr- ibes \Igalter(probably ii) de \Y~/indsor, a Rrevious grantor of the lax,d to Robert, as a;,tmculus meus. Coupled with the a',,us of the ii98 part-
w l t l l wi~[c '~l we o p e n e !uoe, tins sut~ports: t!",e pea~gree d. But t[-..e~e is anothe:' word to be said. Ia ,2o6 Ralf de Hodeng and
~- .¢. Dalc,m de ,,asceles and C~rtstiana his v..qre crave a sum for the land which Walter(i[) de Windsor held on the day when he was alive and dead(Rot, de Obl. 8¢ Nn.,p. 3 and 6). It may reasonably be assumed that if Rail de Hodeng had been the husband of Gunnora de "Windsor, their names would have been coupted: since Gunnora was living in lzos(Cl,ria Regis Rolls, iti, 298 ). ]" take it, therefore, that he was her '-.'.on: Morant, ii, 277 says chat Gunnora married Philip de Hesdeng, citing some inaccessible genealogical collections. More probably his v.ame was Hugh; but .R.alf was at at:}, rate son and not husband- young in z2o6 and born when his mother was young. This assumption, which it is suggested ia not unreasonable, fits all the known facts, and make~ '~df the nephew of Walter(IT).
