York-shire, lying on the South-east of the ri∣ver
of Hull: P••olomy seems to call it Ocellum,
a certaine Monk Cavam Deiram, or the Hol∣low
Country of the Dei••ians; expressing in
those words the new name of Holdernesse.
William the Conquerour gave this territory to
Stephen the son of Od•• of Champaig••e Lord
of Aumerie, in Normandy; whose issue did
continue Lords hereof, whiles any issue of
that house continued. But that line being
extinct in Aveline, first wife of Edmund Earle
of Lancaster, the Earldome of Aub••rmarle,
and the honour of Holdernesse were seised in∣to
the Kings hands, for default of heires. It
hath lien dormant since, till these later days;
in which K. Iames▪ bestowed this title, on
1620
