Rugetius : In the collection of ancient seals attached to deeds and charters in the muniment room of Stowe Bardolph, Norfolk, I find one, used 3 Hen. VI., thus inscribed:
"S. Walt' d'ni fitz Waut' et de wodeham haydepuys et rochetiss."
Sir Walter Fitz Walter was then Lord of Woodham, and of the latter places named, which "were probably in Normandy." La Haye-du-Puys, at least, is well known. "Rochetiss" may perhaps be identified with Rochetts in Essex.
