Hugh de Port Lord of Basing [1][2][3] (c. 1015 – 1096), [4] Anglo-Norman, believed to have arrived in England from Port-en-Bessin, Possibly, Hugh was the first Norman Sheriff of Kent, Hampshire and Nottinghamshire.[5][6] De Port accumulated many properties, thought to have been no less than 133 [7] at the time of the Domesday Book of 1086,[8][9] [10] [11][12][13] when he held the manor of Bramshill (Bromeselle).[14] Hugh de Port is associated closely with the history of Portsmouth; most of his estates were based in Hampshire.[15] Hugh was clearly a vassal of bishop Odo of Bayeux, from whom he held so largely in Hampshire and in Kent, and from whose successor his son Henry still held, in Normandy, three knight’s fees in 1133.[16]

He was related to Adam de Port (d. c. 1133).[17] Green, Judith A states he died between 1130 to 1133,[18] Keats-Rohan, states that Hubert de Port of Mapledurwell. Domesday Book Mapledurwell [19] and Hugh de Port, could share family connections. See Lloyd [20] It is noted that his descendant Adam de Port was outlawed in 1172 [21]

According to records in Regesta regum anglo-normannorum, 1066-1154 a charter numbered 88 in a land restoration record [1070 - 1075) sees that Hugh de Port and Hubert de Port are witness within the same record.[22] Both Hugh and Hubert appear in a number of official documents within this time period.

Hugh's successor was his son and heir Henry de Port:[23] as stated in the pedigree on page 12 Chawton Manor.

Hugh married Orenge [24] they had the following children:

Future generations of the de Port lineage continue in the St John lineage of Baron St John of Basing.[34]
