"Muschamp (Barmoor, co. Northumberland; descended from Sir William de Muschamp, Knt., of Barmoor, 1267, son of Stephen de Muschamp, third son of Thomas de Muschamp, Baron of Wooler, and grandson of Sir Stephen Bulmer by Cicely Muschamp, his wife)."
"Stephen de Bulemer (Bulmer) had married Cicely de Muschamp, heiress to the barony. Their son, Thomas, adopted his mother's family name. In 1173, he joined the rebellion of Henry II's eldest son, and William, king of Scots. After the defeat and capture of William at Alnwick in 1174, he fled to Scotland where he remained until his death. His forfeited lands were given to Odinel de Umframville in compensation for the damage he had suffered at the hands of William, king of Scots."
