Forgive me for this, but wherever we see this confusion of Mortain
and Mortagne, before going any further can we try to make sure which
we mean? (No blame here, honest - we know this particular mixup
actually besets medieval records themselves - but wherever we can I
for one would feel easier if we could avoid bouncing it on over
research's future horizon, yes?)

Cheers!
