context_section_description: The descendants of the Domesday Book tenant "William" later assumed the surname de Kittisford, and held this manor till the time of Henry III, when the family died out in the male line. The daughter and heiress of John de Kittisford, the last in the male line, married John de Sydenham, lord of the manor of Sydenham near Bridgwater, Somerset, to whom therefore passed the manor of Kittisford.
