A second estate here held of the principal manor appears when Geoffrey the Chamberlain before 1093 gave the tithe of his lands in North Moreton to the priory of Wallingford. Early in the 13th century John de Turbervill had one fee here, which was perhaps held of him by his daughter Joan, to whom with her husband Osbert Turpin, Baldwin de Cuserigg and Alice his wife for 12 marks conveyed 2 hides in North Moreton in 1203, to be held by the service of one-tenth of a knight's fee. In 1233 Osbert and Joan disputed certain dues claimed by Henry Basset, and about 1255 they gave half their estate here to Godstow Priory. In 1279 Richard the son of Osbert withdrew a claim which he had made against Philip de Northmorton for a tenement here. In 1379 lands in North Moreton were held by Sir Hugh Segrave with the manor of Aston Tirrold (q.v.), with which they descended, being designated a manor from 1520 to 1605. In 1201 Alice the wife of Baldwin de Cuserigg held half a virgate of land in Moreton, previously held by Robert Palmer. This they together conveyed to William de Huntercombe and Christian his wife and Alice her sister in exchange for half a hide there.
