Going further, my suggestion is that those individuals are : William de Blore who was lord of Blore in mid 13th c. & Hugh Adam de Blore who was lord of Blore and Grendon in the early 14th c. (or relatives in between). Of course not 100% sure otherwise I would not used the question mark in the roll -->

The Dering Roll is named after one of its owners, Sir Edward Dering, Lieutenant of Dover Castle, who came into possession of the manuscript in the 17th century.
Made around 1279 for the Constable of Dover Castle, Stephen de Penchester, it is an early depiction of english baronage during the reign of King Edward I.
Many of the 324 individuals represented in the roll hold lands in either Kent (1-84) or Sussex (85+), while a continental program (289+) completes the work.
The manuscript was falsified by Dering who replaced the arms of Nicholas de Criel (item 61, restored here with his father's arms) with those of his own fictitious ancestor, Richard Fitz Dering.
