My understanding is that the Falais Roll leaves a lot to be desired as
far as accuracy is concerned. It is felt that the roll was a medieval
invention compounded over the years. The following are thought to be
some of the most likely to have fought at Hastings:

Robert de Beaumont, later Earl of Leicester
Eustace of Boulogne, Count of Boulogne
William of Evreux, later Count of Evreux
Geoffrey of Mortagne, later Count of Perche
William Fitz Osbern, later Earl of Hereford
Aimeri de Thouars, Vicomte of Thouars
Hugh de Montfort, seigneur of Montfort-sur-Risle
Walter Giffard, seigneur of Longueville
Ralph de Toeni, seigneur of Conches
Hugh de Grandmesil, seigneur of Grandmesnil
William de Warenne, later Earl of Surrey
William Malet, seigneur of Graville
Odo of Bayeux, Bishop of Bayeux, later Earl of Kent
Turstin Fitz Rou
Engenulf de Laigle, seigneur of Laigle
Geoffrey de Montbray, Bishop of Coutances.
Robert of Mortain, Count of Mortain, later Earl of Cornwall.
Wadard, believed to be a follower of the Bishop of Bayeux.
Vital, believed to be a follower of the Bishop of Bayeux.
Goubert d'Auffay, seigneur of Auffay.
William Malet.
Robert de Vitot.
Gerelmus de Panileuse.
(*?) Robert fitz Ernis. (Urze?)
Roger, son of Turold.
Turstin, son of Rou.
Erchembald
Taillefer.
A member of the house of Ponthieu ("Pontivi nobilis haeres"). Perhaps
Count Gui I.
Gerald the Seneschal
Rodulf the Chamberlain (? de Tancarville).
Hugh d'Ivry, the Pincerna.
Richard fitz Gilbert (de Clare).
Pons (? ancestor of the Cliffords).
Ranulf the Vicomte of the Bessin.
Ralf Tesson.
Fulk d'Aunou.
Richard the Vicomte d'Avranchin
