Sir Robert, at his death in 1311, was seized of Fersfield, Denton, Garboldisham, &c. leaving Robert du Boys, Knt. his only son and heir, then very young, and one daughter, Alice. Christian his mother was his guardian to her death, and then he became a ward of Thomas, Earl-Marshal, Earl of Norfolk, who presented here in 1326, the said Robert being not then of age: he died a bachelor in 1333, leaving his whole estate to Alice, his only sister and heiress
They sirnamed themselves De Bosco, or Bois, from the great wood which joined to their mansion-house, and was not cleared till Queen Elizabeth's time; Boscus in Latin, or Bois in French, signifying a wood. The crest of this family was a buck couchant, ermine. The whole generation continually resided here, from William, who was first infeoffed in it, to Alice, who was the last of that line. They were always a separate family from the De Boscos of Lincolnshire, or those of Ingham in Norfolk, which family bears a different coat from this; and because I have no where met with any pedigree of them

Blomfield initially attributed the effigy to Robert de Bois 1268-1311 who built the south aisle, and was the son & heir of Sir Robert de Bois by Amicia, widow of T. Hastyng / Hasting of Gilling, who built the nave. However the style of the armour is not c1310 but c1333 also the pose of the body has a sway (curve) and that form does not appear until the second third of the 14c.
It is now thought that the effigy was placed when Sir John Howard +++ acquired the Bois estates on behalf of his heiress wife Alice de Bois, on the death of her brother Sir Robert ===, who died unmarried). Did he at that time erect the monument to Alice's father who built the south aisle or her brother, the last male heir who died without issue ??.
