      "There is a tradition," says Dean Swift, "that the most ancient family of the Ericks derive their lineage from Erick, the Forester, a great commander, who raised an army to oppose the invasion of William the Conqueror, by whom he was vanquished; but afterwards employed to command that Prince's forces, and in his old age retired to his house in Leicestershire, where his family hath continued ever since." Though the earliest ancestor of the family is only recorded by tradition, we learn from ancient writings of unquestionable authority, that the Eyricks were seated at a very remote period, at Great Stretton, in Leicestershire, in that respectable line of life, so justly the pride of an Englishman, free tenants of their own lands, two virgates of which they held under the Abbey of Leicester,on the payment of an annual quit rent to the King of a pound of pepper. These virgates had been given to the Abbey by Ralph Friday, Lord of Wibtoft, and were successively held by Roger Torr, Sir Ralph Neville, Alan and Henry Eyryk, and Robert Eyryk, the son of Alan.
