I think you already have this, but from Domesday Descendants by Keats-Rohan:

FILII HUGONIS, SIBILLA UXOR GERNAGOTI
Wife of Jernegan fitz Hugh of Tanfield, Yorkshire
(From: Clay: Early Yorkshire Charters (1936), V. no. 319


There are two Tanfields in Yorkshire: West Tanfield and East Tanfield,
fairly close to each other, both between Bedale and Ripon. Greweltough
is now Grewelthorpe.

You can find a bit about the Marmions of Tanfield here:

http://ourpasthistory.com/yorkshirehistory/section%20t.htm

Domesday Descendants names several Marmions:

Gaufrid Marmon, probably son of Robert fitz Roger Marmion (d.c. 1144)

Ingelran Marmion, ditto

Robert Marmion, son of Roger Marmion and the cdaughter of Urse de
Abitot. His descendant held 4 fees of Gand in Winteringham in 1212. Left
a son, Robert, by his wife Milisendis.

Robert Marmion II, son of Robert and Milisende. Died c 1181 and had son,
Robert (d 1218).

Roger Marmion, son of Robert and Hadvisa, who became a nun in 1106 after
the death of her husband. Brother of Helto and Manasser. Married dau and
coheiress of Urse of Abitot. Died between 1112-1129.

But this is a bit early for you.
