I have traced my Passmore ancestors to Myghell Passmore B. 1546 at North Molton, Devon. I have also discovered a "Passemers family" who owned a house in what is now the "Passmores District" of Harlow, Essex from 1199 to 1475. The house was first mentioned as a Manor House in the Domesday Book of 1086. Has anyone any suggestions as to how we can trace this Passemers Family. The Passmores District was named after the Passemers House and was the site of the Harlow Museum until 1973. 1149 is the first recorded mention of the Passmore name that I have found.4099
