Hi,

I have Sybil as the daughter of Roger de Valoignes and Agnes, and
sister of Philip de Valoignes (and sister also of Peter, Robert,
Geoffrey, John and Roger) which seems to fit most of the known facts.
Agnes gave land to Binham for the souls of her sons and daughters, so
we know she had daughters. But I have searched in vain for a charter
of any of these Valoignes which is witnessed by any of Sybil's three
husbands or her children (or vice versa) which would tend to confirm
the relationship.

Regards,

John
