He never had the barony, because dvp.
Somerset may also want to be Somersetshire, in this era.
If he died in Landes Forest, Aquitaine in 1253... he literally wasn't in France.
Landes forest is also in Gascony. Which may or may not have then been controlled by the Duchy of Aquitaine. Dunno.
Note the town Landes department (in Girones) didn't exist until after the Revolution centuries later, so we can't use the current: Landes, Girones, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France hierarchy. But here is where this is now:
