"Long Buckby has a history going back approximately 1,200 years to the Vikings[1] when all of
northern, central and eastern England came under Danelaw. The mound remaining of a castle built
by Sahir de Quincy in the 12th century remains. The village name is of Nordic origin, with 'by' meaning
settlement or village while 'Buck' is derived from 'Bec' (pronounced 'becker' in old Norse) for
stream/brook. The village is recorded in the Domesday Book as Buchebei, its affix possibly coming
at a later date in reference to the length of the village."

Saher IV DE QUINCY b: BEF 1154 in Winchester, Hampshire
Margaret of HARCOURT
"Lord of Buckby in Northampton
His name is variously spelled. The first name is sometimes rendered Saher, Saire, or Seer, and
the last name Quency or Quenci. His background is a little uncertain. He was probably the son of
Robert FitzRichard and nephew of another Saer de Quincy, who was lord of Buckby in
Northamptonshire. Quincy was one of the barons who took part in the rebellion of Henry the
Young King in 1184. Like most of the rebels, he eventually received his lands back after the
rebellion failed. He subsequently served as castellan at various castles in the English royal
possessions in France. Most notably, in 1203 he was castellan at Vandreuil in Normandy, and
surrendered it to the French. In 1204 de Quincy's brother-in-law Robert de Beaumont, 4th Earl of
Leicester died, leaving de Quincy's wife as co-heiress along with her elder sister. The estate was
split in half, and after the final division was ratified in 1207 de Quincy was made earl of
Winchester. Quincy never got along with king John, and was one of the 25 guarenteors of the
Magna Carta. He fought against John in the troubles that followed the signing of the Charter, and
against Henry III as well. After the failure of the early attempts to depose Henry III, de Quincy
decided to fulfill a vow he had made to go on crusade. In 1219 he left to join the Fifth Crusade,
then besieging Damietta. There he fell sick and died.

Saer de Quincy, the son of Robert de Quincy and Orabilis of Leuchars, was raised largely in
Scotland. His absence from English records for the first decades of his life has led some modern
historians and genealogists to confuse him with his uncle, Saer II, who took part in the rebellion
of Henry the Young King in 1173, when the future Earl of Winchester can have been no more than
a toddler. Saer II's line ended without direct heirs, and his nephew and namesake would
eventually inherit his estate, uniting his primary Scottish holdings with the family's
Northamptonshire patrimony, and possibly some lands in France. (Wikipedia)"

Robert DE QUINCY
Orabella DE LEUCHARS
"Robert de Quincy seems to have inherited no English lands from his father, and pursued a
knightly career in Scotland, where he is recorded from around 1160 as a close companion of his
cousin, King William the Lion. By 1170 he had married Orabilis, heiress of the Scottish lordship of
Leuchars and, through her, he became lord of an extensive complex of estates north of the border
which included lands in Fife, Strathearn and Lothian. (Wikipedia)"

Saer I DE QUINCY
Maud De SAINT LIZ - Lady of Branham
"The first recorded Saer de Quincy (known to historians as "Saer I") was lord of the manor of Long
Buckby in Northamptonshire in the earlier twelfth century, and second husband of Matilda of St
Liz, stepdaughter of King David I of Scotland. This marriage produced two sons, Saer II and
Robert de Quincy. It was Robert, the younger son, who was the father of the Saer de Quincy who
eventually became Earl of Winchester. By her first husband Robert Fitz Richard, Matilda was also
the paternal grandmother of Earl Saer's close ally, Robert Fitzwalter. (Wikipedia)

SAHER DE QUINCEY (or Saier) received a grant from King Henry II of the Manor of Bushley,
Northamptonshire. He married Maud de St. Liz, daughter of Simon de Liz, who was created Earl
of Northampton and Huntington and his wife Maud, daughter of Waltheof, first Earl of
Northampton and Northumberland, who was beheaded in 1075 at Winchester for conspiring
against the Normans although his wife was a niece of William the Conqueror.
