	hereward and the Barony of Bourne
		Hereward's high social standing is consistent with the role he is reported to have assumed in the rebellion, and native families, especially in the North, were often successful in maintaining title to their lands in the years immediately after the Conquest, whilst the marriage of English heiresses to Norman aristocrats is well-attested.
		Hereward apparently only held part of Laughton and its soke in his own right; otherwise his most substantial holdings were parcels of land held of the abbeys of Crowland and Peterborough in Rippingale and Witham on the Hill, Barholm and Stowe respectively.
		Hereward, by contrast, simply paid an annual render which he negotiated with the abbot, and the fact suggests a different type of relationship and a different type of man. Monasteries, open to aggression from local families, often leased out estates on beneficial terms to powerful laymen to counter unfriendly forces.

	Hereward the Wake
		Hereward wanted himself and his men to be knighted in this way because he heard that it had been ruled by the French that if anyone were knighted by a monk, cleric or any ordained minister, it ought not to be reckoned the equal of true knighthood, but invalid and anachronistic.
		Hereward had not been there more than three days when he heard that an enemy of his would be in the aforesaid town, a man who had often tried to ruin him and hand him over to those enemies who had lately broken faith with him.
		Hereward hastily followed his track from house to house, from garden to garden, with a naked sword and a small shield in his hand, right into the great hall where many men from the man's own district were assembled at a club dinner.

	Hero-Myths and Legends: Chapter XVI. Hereward the Wake
		Hence it happens that Hereward the Saxon, a patriot hero as real and actual as Wellington or Nelson, whose deeds were recorded in prose and verse within forty years of his death, was even then surrounded by a cloud of romance and mystery, which hid in vagueness his family, his marriage, and even his death.
		One morning as Hereward was returning with Martin from his morning ride he heard shouts and shrieks from the castle yard, and, reaching the great gate, entered lightly and closed it behind him rapidly, for there outside the shattered cage, with broken chain dangling, stood the Fairy Bear, glaring savagely round the courtyard.
		Hereward beckoned silently to Martin, and the two stood ready, one at each side of the door, to make a dash for freedom, and Martin was prepared to slay any who should hinder.

	Rambles: Victor Head, Hereward (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-04)
		Much in the manner that William Wallace rose to stand for Scotland, Hereward the Wake is a character now of myth and legends, although unlike Wallace he does not enjoy the spotlight in the public mind.
		Victor Head works to bring Hereward out of that misty realm of myth and into a flesh-and-blood man, filling in the gaps by presenting clear and concise evidence from all sides about incidents in history.
		Hereward is, indeed, woven into the fabric of England's struggles in history, and as I said, one cannot but help draw parallels between him and Scotland's Wallace.

		Coming across him by chance, Hereward immediately asked him who he was, and he replied: "One of the servants from the king's retinue who have been pursuing a fugitive peasant who by guile today killed his guard and one of the king's pages.

	Hereward: The Last EnglishmanLatest Backpacking News (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-04)
		Hereward, very likely the exiled son of a powerful Lincolnshire thegn, and nephew to Abbot Brand of Peterborough, was sent from England prior to the Norman invasion of 1066 and fought in a series of conflicts as a soldier of fortune in Western Flanders.
		Attempting to gather together survivors of William's cruel policies, Hereward goes on the rampage, starting with the violent attack on the monastery at Peterborough, where he tries to frustrate the man who seeks to take over from his uncle, the vicious Turold, by removing the monastery's treasures.

		The only exception to this general rule is the 'History of Hereward the Wake', a story which has been thoroughly neglected by modern historians.
		It was written between 1109 and 1121 by a monk of Ely on the basis of a now lost Old English biography by Leofric and the reminiscences of several of Hereward's companions, two of whom are named as Siward of Bury St Edmunds and Leofric the Black.
		At Ely the monk, Richard, compiled The Book of Ely which is based on John of Worcester's chronicle, the History of Hereward and, surprisingly, William of Poitiers' biography of the Conqueror.
