At the risk of 'butting in' on what appears to be a concluded Forum thread, I was nonetheless hoping to add my own inquiry regarding the Pauncefotes (Pauncefoot, Pauncefaut etc).
I am a direct descendant of this family as follows (I am a direct descendant, in the male line, of the William Bennett shown below):

(This information is taken primarily from The Baronetage of England, Or the History of the English Baronets.... Vol. 5, by William Betham. pp. 62-71)

Anne Pauncefote (1677-1729) m. William Bennett (c.1651-1715)--of Hartgrove, Dorset
William Pauncefote (1647-1691) m. Anne Pride (1648-1715)
Poole Pauncefote (1612-1687) m. Elianor Rogers (1608-1673)
Grimbald Pauncefote (1583-1667) m. Mary Nourse
William Pauncefote (1532-1616) m. Dorothy Scolcroft (? - aft. 1616)
Grimbald Pauncefote (c.1508 - ?) m. Millicent (Mellesent?)

(It appears that Mellesent, as a widow, lived with her daughter Elizabeth and son-in-law John Dabitot in Redmarley.)

Like many Pauncefote researchers, I have had to deal with the problem of linking Grimbald & Millicent, who are identified as the "Collateral branch of the original grant of Hasfield to that of its alienation", to that of the more ancient line that goes back to the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries.
Any suggestions?
