DEDICATION (10356 words)
EYRE , of Eyreville, whose wish it was, that a history of this description should be written for the use of the members of his branch of the family, I dedicate this book. The Eyres are found in the Parish of Hope and Hassop in Derbyshire before the time the name appears in the History of Wilts; perhaps some unrecorded member of the family may have migrated from Derbyshire to the South of England, and so have been the origin of the Wilts family. EYRE OF Humphrey Le Heyr, of Bromham, Wilts, he was a Crusader, and accompanied Richard I. to the Holy Land.
