Vauquelin (Walkelin) de Ferrières (d. ca. 1040), Seigneur of Ferrières-Saint-Hilaire. 
The Ferrers family holding at Ferrières-Saint-Hilaire was the caput of their large 
Norman barony.

Valkelin was married but the name of his wife is unknown. They had two sons who 
were supporters of William the Conqueror:
William de Ferrers, killed in the Battle of Hastings
Henry de Ferrers, who became a major landowner in England after the conquest.

Valkelin fought Hugh I the Bearded of Montfort-sur-Risle in battle in 1045 in which 
both were killed. Hugh I was the father of Hugh de Montfort, proven companion of 
William the Conqueror.
