• Notes

  From "Sargent Genealogy" Aaron Sargent 1895: "Hugh Sargent (Sariant), the earliest known ancestor of the family lived in Courtenhall, County of Northhampton. Courtenhall was the inheritence of the Wake family which traces its descent back to Hereward the Wake, to a time anterior to the Norman Conquest... Prefixed to the first volumn of the parish register, which begins in the year 1538, and folded to its size, is a large piece of parchment, on which is transcribed many pedigrees. One of them is the family of Sargent... The rector of the church, Rev. Archibald Wake (1895), says, "The parchment show that the family were in Courtenhall in 1554, and were of gentle blood; and possible the Sargents were in the parish before a Wake entered it." Margaret, wide of Hugh Sargent, was daughter of Nicholas and Agnes (Masters) Gifford, of the Abbey of St. James, which was a western suburb of the town of Northhampton. This abbey was a religious estate of considerable note, founded before the year 1112, by William Peverel, natural son of William the Conqueror, and to which he (Perverel) gave forty acres of land. It is called St. James end. Hugh Sagent must have been born about the year 1530. He died Feb. 23, 1595/6. (buried 1st of March)."
