English House of Lacy

[Garland Lacey]

? ?Reference is made to two books:
? ? ? 1- Blazzon of Gentrie and Laceys Nobilitae, published 1586 by Sir John Ferne
? ? ? 2- The Roll of the House of Lacy, published 1928, Baltimore by de Lacy-Bellingari

? ?These books, and other genealogical histories, indicate that two brothers, Ilbert and Walter de Lacy sailed from Normandy, France with Duke William when he conquered the English Throne in 1066 and became King William I. Many present day researchers believe that United Kingdom Lacy/Laceys descend from those two brothers. Shouldn't the Lacy grouping be called de Lacy or at least include that grouping within the Lacy group?
