OF the ancient and noble
Norman family of Savage—or, as the Normans wrote it, Le Sauvage — the
first who came into these kingdoms passed from Normandy into England
with the army of the Conqueror, a.d. 1066, and settled in Derbyshire.
From Derbyshire the Savage family branched out into several English
counties; and from Derbyshire, in 1177, they established themselves in
Ireland in the person of William Savage, one of the twenty-two Knights
who fought by De Courcy in the subjugation of Ulster, and subsequently
one of the Ulster Palatine Barons. |
