Hugh de Port

Hugh de Port (c. 1015 – 1096) was an 11th-century French-English Norman aristocrat. He was believed to have arrived in England from Port-en-Bressin, leaving behind his son who owned land of the bishop of Bayeux in 1133. It is possible that was the first Norman sheriff of Kent. De Port accumulated a great number of properties, believed to have been no less than 53 at the time of the Domesday Book of 1086, when he held the manor of Bramshill (Bromeselle); his family were in possession of it for nine generations. He is closely associated with the history of Portsmouth, and most of his estates were based in Hampshire.
Hugh's son and heir was Adam de Port.
