Notes |
- The surname Champney is derived from the ancient district of Champagne, is listed in the Roll of Battell Abbey and seen in Domesday as Chemarnkee, Other spellings are Champness, Chamneis, Champneis and Chaumpenay. Johannes Chaumpenay lived in Yorkshire in 1379; and in 1581, William Champney and Emma Crocksall obtained a marriage license in London, England. The 1623 Visitation of Somerset lists Peter, John, William, George, Margaret and Thomasine as the youngest generation descended from Henry Champneys.
