CONFLICT: Father was Michael or G erard. The son of Michael of Stratford, England. The name descends from "Le Dispencer" Family in the era of William the Conqueror, hum3.paf Birth, I don't think the date is correct because it is the same as the christining date which was also documented on the Internet site.
