_Daughters taking their Mothers' Names_ (Vol. viii., p.586.).--BURIENSIS
asked for instances of temp. Edw. I., II., III., of a daughter adding to
her own name that of her mother: as Alice, daughter of Ada, &c. Though I am
not able to furnish an instance of a daughter doing so, I can refer him to
a few of sons using that form of surname some years earlier, but the
practice seems very limited. Thus in _Liber de Antiquis Legibus_, published
by the Camden Society, we have, among the early sheriffs of London in 1193,
Willielmus filius Ysabelis, or, as in the appendix 222, Ysabel; in 1200,
Willielmus filius Alicie; in 1213, Martinus filius Alicie; and in 1233 and
1246, Simon filius Marie,--the same person that, as Simon Fitz-Mary, is
known as the founder of the Hospital of St. Mary Bethlehem Without,
Bishopsgate.
