[526] "The known marital alliances of the Percies
during the centuries
succeeding, shouts aloud their Flemish origin. The arms used by the
Percies in the late 11th century are not Norman (for the Normans,
unlike the Flemings, then had no heraldry), and in accordance with the
manner in which early heraldic symbolism operated strongly suggest a
connection with Bethune (a few miles west of Lille in what was then the
county of Flanders).
"That the western part of Normandy had in the middle of the 11th century
a strong representation of the Flemish aristocracy tends to be
overlooked by those English writers who have not examined the "Norman"
charters of the period. This is especially true of the Cotentin
peninsular, a desolate area of infertile ground that had been a French
princess's dowry when she married Baldwin of Flanders. (It had
previously appeared to be Norman, because Duke Richard III had received
it as that same princess's dowry when he was supposed to marry her, and
had returned it to her when the marriage failed to proceed.) Baldwin
populated the area with Flemings who knew from their own experience in
northern Flanders just how such a bleak coastal area could be defended
militarily and exploited agriculturally, and it is from this heritage
that such great families as Bruce, Ferrers, Haig, Hay, Mandeville,
Morville, Percy and Vere emerged, most taking their names from their
Norman fiefs (and their arms from their origins in Greater Flanders."
