An old style letter "s" looks like a letter "f" and often when the name Usflete and variants of it with the letters "sf" are transcribed into modern documents or indexes to them, it is wrongly transcribed into a double "ff", but the nearer phonetic to Usefleet and Ousefleet is Usflete (and variants with an "s"), not Ufflete or variants of that.
The earliest abode of the Usflete family at the outset was the hamlet/village of Ousefleet next to Whitgift, Yorkshire.
