Usual suggestions. Ready to promote anyway.
 * Might be worth linking Anglo-Norman.
 * Also Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, and Normandy.
 * "when it was seized by" -- suggest "captured", avoid repeating "seized".
 * "of Stephen's reign from 1135 to 1154" -- I think you could lose the "from *1135" as it's implicit on Stephen's claiming the throne...up to you though.
 * You link Drax, but Drax Priory has an article too, if you want it. SN54129  15:47, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I think I got all these. I have realized I need to make charts to figure out who in all these noble families I've done and who still needs doing... Ealdgyth (talk) 19:13, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
