Notes for Reginald de Hampden
He is said to have had a dau. Akice who m. Henry Dayrell of Lillingstone Dayrell, Bucks but had no known children - Lipscombe Vol III, p. 32.

Jenkins in the Missenden Cartulary says his wife is only known as Agnes from Lipscombe, though in 1217 an Agnes was sued over land at Stewkley which may indicate that Reginald died before 1217.

Reginald’s parents are said to be, in the Ancestry of Dorothea Poyntz, Bartholomew de Hampden and a daughter of Guillaume de Fiennes; this is also to be found in Lipscomb’s Bucks which is likely to be the source for Bodine and Spalding.
However... Jenkins firmly asserts that Reginald’s father was Alexander de Hampden and for Alexander, jenkins refers to the kingshill charter No 92 in the Missenden Abbey cartulary which says that Alexander was also known as de Culworth, was married to Cecilia, was the son of Richard de Culworth and had a brother William de Culworth who was Sheriff of Beds and Bucks in 1170-9. Jenkins then postulates that William de C who held Culworth must have been the elder brother of Alexander who received Hampden from his mother and slowly chaged his name from de Culworth to de Hampden.
Jenkins then links Alexander de Sulworth/Hampden with a Domesday ancestor Osbert in this passage:
“How is this Alexander to be linked up with the Domesday tenant Osbert ? The answer is to be found in a suit in the Curia Regis in 1220 between Alexander de Hampden and Simon de Pinkeny for possession of the Manor of Morton Pinkney (in Northants).[Cal. Curia Regis Rolls, viii, 252] In support of his claim Alexander alleged that his ancestor Reinerus de Lohereng was seised of the manor in the time of Henry I, from whom it descended to Alice, daughter and heiress of Reinerus. Alice's son and heir, Alexander, succeeded to this property, to be succeeded in turn by Reginald, father of the claimant.
†††† Reinerus de Lohereng was probably the son and heir of the Domesday tenant Osbert, though we have no direct proof of this at present; it seems clear that he inherited both Great Hampden and Morton Pinkney. Alice, his daughter, must be assumed to have married Richard de Culworth, as otherwise the Hampden pedigree falls to the ground. In support of this assumption, it may be pointed out that Culworth and Morton Pinkney are adjoining parishes, and also that in the Kingshill charter referred to it is specifically mentioned that the grant of which the charter was a confirmation had been made to the Abbey by Alexander's father and mother, thus implying that his mother had some power of disposition over the Hampden property.”
I have proceeded to adopt this descent from Osbert.
