This section contains what looks like OCR artefacting and things like hyphenating in the lines, so I've moved it to the talkpage...

'''The Origin of Cusworth Estate''' Ancient records lead us to believe that Cusworth, originally known as Cuzeuuorde, was owned by a gentleman called Roger, in the eleventh century. William de Warene (whose signature appears on the ancient Doncaster Royal Charter) according to the Domesday Book of 1086, of Coningsburg (now Conisbrough) owned Cusworth but later sold the estate to Alward de Cusceworde. The lands then passed to his son Bernulfus in 1180 who in turn passed the lands on to Robert Beleham and his son Hugo. William de Beleham, son of Hugo, later sold the estate to Ralph de Freschvile and other parts to be owned by Robert de Finglay and William Enesam. In 1252 the manor (which had previously been a wooden castle situated on a mound to the West of the present park) and estate belonged to Robert Tille de Cusceword, a descendant of the earlier owner. About the time of John de Cusceword, who owned these lands in 1312, the name of 'Cusworth' had altered from Cusce- word to Cuscewood. Trouble broke out be- iween Louis of France and Henry III during the fourteenth century and most French titles in England had to be changed and most lands confiscated, leaving this district under the name of Cusseworth, Cucewhart, and now Cusworth. William de Ledes then took possession of Cusworth and in 1399 passed it on to John Mauleverer and his wife Joan. But in 1483 Robert, Mauleverer was revealed of having no right or claim to the manor of Cusworth. In 1500 Nicholas Kniveton acquired Cusworth, but six years later John Kniveton was dispossessed of the estate. Cusworth then passed to a certain Sir John Cutte, but was not long before it became the ownership of Sir William Gasgoigne and his wife Margaret, who was the daughter of Sir Thomas Fitzwilliam of Aldwark and sister of William ritzwilliam, K.G., Earl of Southampton. The iritzwilliam residence other than at Aldwark, was also at Sprotbrough which later passed to Sir Godfrey Copley who demolished the old mansion in 1671 and shortly after built the beautiful Sprotbrough Hall, demolished in 1926 as a result of being the burden of heavy taxation. Richard Bryghous, in 1556, owned Cusworth and later passed it on to Thomas Wormeley. The Wray family were the next to have Cusworth and lived there for a little over a century. The most notable and last member to reside at Cusworth was Sir Christopher Wray, who was, in the sixteenth century, the Chief Justice of the King's Bench. After the death of Sir Christopher Wray the manor and estate were held by the King, but was still the home of the Wray family. Eventually the Wray family reclaimed all rights to Cusworth, but it was on 3rd February, 1669, that the Wrays' ceased being in residence, for the house and estate were sold to Robert Wrightson of Hemsworth, the original ancestor of the present estate.
