Biography
- Wolfric de Hatton aka Wolfric de Croxton. [1]
Research Notes
- See the references and discussions on the profile of Nigel de Cotentin concerning the genealogical fraud/myth connecting the Cheshire Hatton/Croxton family with the Norman Cotentin family
- James Tait, genealogist, writing in 1939, explains that Helsby erred in suggesting that this profile, Wulfric, is the same as Wolfaith, the probably fictional brother of Nigel de Cotentin, in his pedigree of Hatton of Hatton.[2] Tait had access to the foundation charter of Runcorn Priory, which was not known to Ormerod/Helsby. This charter and other contemporary evidences disprove the Cotentin connection.[3]
- Wolfaith de Hatton and Eleanor Crispin have been diconnected as parents, as they are based on a pedigree which has been proved false. See two research notes above.
- Wolfric is not the same person as Wolfaith.

Wolfric may or may not be connected to Wolfraith, but George Ormerud has him existing. "Gilbert de Venables, grandson of the first baron, married Margery, daughter of Walthew fitz Wolfric"... https://archive.org/details/historyofcountyp03orme/page/102/mode/2up
