Roger de Bascrevill, Salop, Henry III-Edward I: Testa de Nevill, sive Liber Feodorum, temp. Henry III-Edward I.
Nesta de Baskervill, Salop, ibid.
Thomas de Baschevill. alias Baskervill, Norfolk and Suffolk, ibid.
Hugh de Baskerville, Salop, 1273. Hundred Rolls.

1601. Humphrey Baskerville, Herefordshire: ibid.
BASKERVILLE: The head of this family was at the battle of Hastings, (Taylor's Roman de Rou, p. 229.) He is styled Martels de Basqueville (Ibid). The parish of Baskerville, now Bacqueville, is in the arrondissement of Dieppe. One of his descendants, who was butler to king Stephen, resumed the name of (William) Martel.
BASKERVYLE: The same as Buskervilie. According to Ormorod's Cheshire, iii, 355, the Baskervyles of Old Withington, now Glegg, are descended from Sir John Baskervyle, grantee of a moiety of Withirigton in 1266, and that estate has ever since remained in the family.
Boskerville: from Boscherville, between Pont-Audemer and Honfleur. Not in Domesday or Wace, but probably came over with the Conqueror, as the name occurs early in the twelfth century.
A branch of the very ancient and distinguished family of Baskerville, which claims royal descent, possessed the manor of Old Withrington from the 13th to the 18th century (O.). The Herefordshire stock, members of which were high sheriffs of that county in the 15th and 16th centuries, carries its pedigree back to the reign of Edward I. (Duncumb's "Herefordshire"). The Baskervilles were represented in Shropshire in the 13th century (H. R.). In Staffordshire the name has been corrupted to Baskeyfield. In Cheshire the Baskervilles are now mostly found in the Chelford district.
