A. My own area of expertise is in the Anglo-Norman 12th century, which has various detail differences from French and German culture at that time. I have come across the manuscript known as "Hortus Deliciarum", which was produced in Alsace at this time and includes a wealth of costume detail. There is also a German late-12th century re-enactment group (I.G.Wolf, e.V.) who have researched the topic in some depth.

A. In the 1100's "count" was a French title (nobility), and so was also a title in the English court ruled by the Norman invaders. There were no counts in the old Saxon nobility. The gentry (squires) had land, but no inheritable titles.

A. 12th century Scotland achieved independence from Rome for its church from England (Canterbury and York) but whilst Ireland had four Archbishops, Scotland had none. Scotland was known as the "special daughter of Rome" The bishops were more likely to follow the orders of the monarch rather than the Pope at the time. The abuse of power by the church and the opulent living style of the bishops in particular led to the Reformation in part in the future years.

Beyond that, try Googling the following words: Bliaut, Norman clothing, Romanesque clothing The Bliaut was the high court dress of the 12th century (think of a medieval ballgown) and it was popularized as the quintessentially "medieval dress" by the PRB painters in the 19th century.

Where would the animals and cargo have gone? It was before ships with 'castles' in them, right? I know that by that time they had ones with a single sail, rather than oars.

A. Taylor as a name does originate with a single person. It is a profession name like Smith, Wright, Fletcher, Tyler, etc.. As such it has a vast number of original bearers. All you can really say is that the name has its basis in Norman French and in the 12th century would most likely be connected to a Norman household or settlement. This narrows down nothing, as most Scottish nobility traces its origins to the Normans such as Frazer or Bruce. When you meet another Taylor, you're most likely not related.
