    Like many sources, The Wallop Family erroneously gives this Theobald as a son of Robert de Valognes and a grandson of Peter de Valognes. See Raymond Phair's post to SGM of 9 Apr 1999, citing Early Yorkshire Charters volume 5 to the effect that no connection has been discovered to the Valognes line of Peter and Robert. The present line usually spelled its name Valeines.
