Matthews lines.
I have to Mathew/Matthews lines back to 1400's Wales. I am trying to trace the 3 brothers. Sir Dafydd, Robert and Lewis. They are the sons of Mathew ap Evan and Jenet Fleming. Sir Dafydd Mathew was the first in the line to use the Mathew as a surname. My information comes from a Magna Charta descendant line. I am also working on getting DNA to back up the written data. If you are interested in contributing, the information will be appreciated. I have tons of Matthews data from all spellings to share.

Sorry it took so long. I had to open a different tree. My data base is huge. I keep a different tree per project.
Roger Le Bigod and his son Hugh Le Bigod.
ROGER BIGOD, the Surety, was born about 1150 and succeeded as second Earl of Norfolk and Suffolk. It is fitting that, after Richard's return to England after his captivity in Germany, Roger Bigod was chosen to be one of the four Earls who carried the silken canopy for the King, as Hugh Bigod had borne the Royal sceptre in the Royal procession.
Earl Of Norfolk and surety , Signer of the Mana Charta, Jine 15, 1215 HUGH BIGOD, son of Surety Roger Bigod and himself a Surety was third Earl of Norfolk and Suffolk, and heir to his father's estates and honors, to which he had succeeded in the 5th of King Henry III He died four years later, in February 1224/5, having married about 1212 Maud, a sister of the Surety William Marshall, and eldest daughter of William Marshall, the Protector. In her right Hugh acquired the Earldom of Pembroke, in which rank William Marshall bore the Royal Sceptre at the Coronation of King Richard I. -

It looks like we connect on many of the people you listed. William de Warrenne's sister married a Bigod and is a grandmother. Again I don't have that tree open. With my new computer I will be able to open a larger file. I am working on putting both mother and father's line together. my mother's is the Matthews line. Do any of your Surety connections run through your Matthews? I must drink more coffee before typing.
