Previous Lords:
A reference in 969 to the boundary of the men of Marston (Mercstuninga gemœre) is the first evidence of the existence of the village. At the time of the Domesday Survey the overlordship of MARSTON MANOR was with Nigel de Albini, whose family became the barons of Cainhoe. Thus the overlordship follows the descent of the barony (fn. 5) (q.v.).
