One theory as the origins of the Malets of Curry Malet is that he married the daughter 
of Roger de Courseulles who held those lands at the time of Domesday. At the time of 
Domesday, in 1086, the Malet family does not appear to have held any land in 
Somerset, but by the mid 12th century, they seem to have come into possession of at 
least some of the lands held at the time of Domesday by Roger de Courseulles 
(Corcelle?), most notably "Sepetone" and "Curi", towns known as "Shepton Mallet" 
and "Curry Mallet", today. How this came about is not really known, but one theory 
holds that Gilbert Malet, the second son of William married either a sister or daughter 
of Roger de Courseulles, and that Gilbert's son Robert inherited his mother's estates 
upon the death of de Courseulles c1100. [Ref: Mallett Family History
