Research Notes:
Baron of Caxton [Ref: Sanders Baronies p30]

Breton ancestry is more likely than not, probable origins in the seigneurie of Fougeres in north-east Brittany [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p245]

earliest holdings lay in Cambridgeshire, where he was a major tenant of the abbey of Ely [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p244]

figures largely in the Inquisitiones Eliensis and Comitatus Cantabrigiensis [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p245]

held land of Count Alan, in addition to his tenancy-in-chief [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p245]

Domesday lord of Caxton [Ref: Sanders Baronies p30]

two of his tenants at Domesday, but not named in Domesday Book, at Little Abington were Ralph de Felgeres and Robert Brito [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p245]

although not associated in Domesday Book with Count Alan's holding in Richmondshire, Harduin early acquired interests there premitting the grant of four carucates to St Mary's York [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p245]

divided his estates between his two sons Richard and Hugh [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p245, Sanders Baronies p30]

his toponym has caused great confusion for historians, though it can be related to several places all over modern France. He has been seen as a Fleming from Ecalles on the grounds that a certain Baldwin held land of him, but the argument is weak and ignores the several real clues we have as to his origins [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p244]
