William the Surety was the D'Aubigny of Belvoir and as such any work on MC
Sureties will give you descendants, as would CP.

Then there are the D'Aubigny who were Earls of Arundel. And then there are the
Daubeny
of the Channel Islands who wound up in the West Country. I am not sure that
the Daubeny and D'Aubigny of Arundel are related.
