Notes 
Individual:

William d'Aubigny, Seigneur of Aubigny (subsequently Saint-Martin d'Aubigny), Normandy; married by 1048 sister of Grimald de Plessis. [Burke's Peerage]

Aubigny, Alibini, etc., Earls of Arundel
Saint-Martin d'Aubigny: Manche, arr. Coutances, cant. Periers.
The early history of the family will be found in The Complete Peerage, surname Mowbray, new ed., vol. ix, pp. 366-7. The details of their benefactions to the abbey of Lessay as confirmed by a charter of Henry II, 1185-1188, identify St-Martin d'Aubigny with the Aubigny which was the caput of their Norman honour; thus the "ecclesiam de Folgeriis" is Feugeres 2 1/2 kil. SE of Aubigny, the "feria Sancti Christofori" mentioned in conjunction with the "forum Albinneii" is St-Christophe-d'Aubigny, a parish now united to that of St-Martin, and "Marchesis" is Marchesieux, 5 kil. NE of Aubigny. There is no trace of a feudal castle at Aubigny itself, but Gerville found nearby at Le Mesnil-Vigot the remains of a considerable castle with a well-defined motte, then known as "le chateau de St-Clair". [Origins of Some Anglo-Norman Families]

Homer Beers James cites Crispin and Macary for the following:

"The family of Aubigny derived its name from Aubigny, near Periers, in the Contentin, and Wace, the chronicler, mentions `li boteillier d'Aubigny.' The pedigree commences with Grimoult du Plessis, the traitor of Valognes and Val-Des-Dunes, who died in a dungeon in 1047. William d'Aubigny, first of the name, married the sister of Grimoult and had issue Roger, who married Amicia, sister of Geoffrey, Bishop of Coutances, and of Roger de Montbray (i.e., Mowbray). The latter had issue, William d'Aubigny II, pincerna to Henry I., who married Maud Bigot, daughter of Roger Bigot, and died in 1139."
