"To sustain the dignity Wydevill was granted the reversion of a rent of 14 l, 4, s due from the fee of Chokes to the ward of Northampton castle, and all fees belonging to "Chokesfee, Bryansfe, feoda Johannis de Baiocis, Maundevyllfee, Loxingtonfee," or the baronies (sic) of Rivers (Ripariis) and Ledet fee. The reason for the choice of the title of Rivers is undoubtedly due to a claimed descent from the Rivers [Reviers], Earls of Devon, as is shown from the arms used by the Earls.
