First found in Worcestershire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The family name was first referenced in the 13th century when they held estates in that shire. The family were from Seine, Normandy and held estates at Normanville. They were Barons and held estates from the Count of Eu. Someries (Summeries) Castle is located in the parish of Hyde, near Luton, Bedfordshire. The castle name is thought to have been derived from William de Someries, who had a residence on site. While it is nominally named a castle, the structure is more of a manor home but fell to disrepair over the years to the point that some of the bricks were used by local villagers. The site was reopened in 2008 and is open to the public.
