From "Transactions of the Essex Archaeological Society", Vol I, Colchester, pp 251-
273, The History of the Barrington Family, at 
www.southfrm.demon.co.uk/Genealogy/Barr.html:

Eustace de Barentone was son of Sir Odynell and certainly Forester or Woodward of 
Hatfield Forest under the de Gernon otherwise Mountfitchet family. This is proved by 
several existing grants to him.

The earliest is from King Henry the first, who calls him his servant, and grants to him 
for keeping his Forest, the land that had belonged to Geoffrey and also that which 
Adam had forfeited, these were probably Saxons as there are no additions to their 
names. Geoffrey was called the Forester, and was most likely an under woodward at 
Hatfield. Adam's land was held at a rent of twelve shillings a year, and Eustace had it 
granted to him on the same terms. All this was confirmed to him by King Stephen, and 
a second charter by the same king shews him to have been a considerable landowner, 
as does one from Geoffrey de Mandeville, jointly to him and his son Humphrey.

(This last is curious from there being an attested copy of it, taken in the year 1677, by 
which it appears that the torn part of the deed was in the same state, then as it is at 
present, the names of some of the witnesses being imperfect.)

Eustace the Forester fixed his residence at Barrington (old) hall (now a farmhouse), 
which is close to the edge of the Forest and there his descendants continued to 
reside until they took possession of the Priory about the latter end of the reign of 
Queen Elizabeth. Eustace is stated to have married Matilda or Milreda, daughter of 
Peter de Montford, Lord of Beaudesert, although another account names her as one of 
the de Alveto family. He had three sons, Humphrey, John and Eustace, all of whose 
names are found as witnesses to a charter, without date, from Michael de Bosville. 
Eustace died in the reign of King Stephen and was succeeded by his eldest son, 
Humphrey de Barenton. . .
