6051	RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): “HENRY nicknamed “Beauclerc,” King of England, Duke of Normandy, Count of Cotentin, 4th son, born in 1068 or 1069. He married (1st) 11 Nov. 1100 MAUD OF SCOTLAND, daughter of Malcolm III (CeannMor), King of Scots, by his 2nd wife, [Saint] Margaret, daughter of Edward Ætheling [see SCOTLAND 1 for her parentage]. She was born in 1079. They had one son, William, and one daughter, Maud. His wife, Maud, died at Westminster 1 May 1118. He married (2nd) at Windsor, Berkshire 29 Jan. 1121 ALICE (or AELIZ, ALEIDE, ALEYDA, AELIDIS, ADELIDE, ADELIDIS, ADELAIDIS, ADELIZA, ADELIZE, ATHELICE) OF LOUVAIN, daughter of Gottfried (or Godefroy) I, Duke of Lower Lorraine, Count of Louvain, by his 1st wife, Ida, daughter of Otto II, Count of Chiny. She was born about 1103. They had no issue. By various mistresses, he had eight illegitimate sons, Robert [Earl of Gloucester], Richard, Fulk, Reynold [Earl of Cornwall], Robert, Gilbert, William de Tracy, and Henry, and nine illegitimate daughters, Maud (or Mathilde) (wife of Rotrou II, Count of Perche), Alice, Maud (or Mathilde) (wife of Conan III, Duke of Brittany), Juliane (wife of Eustache de Pacy, seigneur of Breteuil and Pacy), Mabel (wife of Guillaume Gouet, seigneur of Montmirail), Constance (wife of Roscelin de Beaumont), Aline (wife of Mathieu de Montmorency), Sibyl (wife of Alexander I, King of Scots), and Isabel.* HENRY I, King of England died at Lyons-la-Forêt (near Rouen), Normandy 1 Dec. 1135, and was buried at Reading Abbey, Berkshire. His widow, Alice, married (2nd) after Dec. 1136 but later than summer 1139 WILLIAM D'AUBENEY, Earl of Lincoln, afterwards 1st Earl of Arundel (or Sussex), hereditary Chief Butler of England, Privy Councillor to King Henry I [see CLIFTON 3]. They had four sons, William [2nd Earl of Arundel or Sussex], Reiner, Henry, and Godfrey, and two daughters, Alice (wife of Jean I, Count of Eu and Alvred de Saint Martin) and Olive. He was a witness to King Stephen's 2nd Charter of Liberties in 1136. He was created Earl of Lincoln c.1138. He gave shelter to Empress Maud at Arundel Castle in 1139, but afterwards adhered to King Stephen. His earldom was transferred from Lincoln to Sussex before Christmas 1141. In his own later charters he is styled Earl of Chichester. About 1145 he witnessed a charter of Henry Hussey as "Consul Willelmo de Cicesterr." His wife, Alice, presented to the prebend of West Dean in 1150. Alice, dowager Queen of England, died as a nun at Affligem Abbey in Brabant 25 (or 26) March 1151, and was buried at Reading Abbey, Berkshire. He was influential in arranging the treaty of 1153, whereby the Crown continued with King Stephen for life, though the inheritance thereof was secured to Henry II. He subscribed his name to this instrument as "Comes Cicestrie." By grant dated c.1155, King Henry II confirmed to him as "William, Earl of Arundel" the Castle of Arundel, with the whole honour of Arundel and all its appurtenances. He served as Joint Ambassador to France and to the Pope in 1163/4. He served as Chief Ambassador with Princess Maud to Germany in 1168. He was appointed joint Commander of the royal army in Normandy in 1173. In Sept. 1173 he assisted in the defeat near Bury St. Edmunds of the Earl of Leicester. He founded Buckenham Abbey, Norfolk and Pynharn Priory, Sussex. WILLIAM D'AUBENEY, 1st Earl of Arundel (or Sussex), died at Waverley Abbey, Surrey 4 (or 12) October 1176, and was buried at Wymondham Priory, Norfolk. [Footnote *: In 1824 the Scottish historian Chalmers stated that King Henry I of England had an illegitimate daughter, Elizabeth, who married Fergus, lord of Galloway (died 1161). [see Chalmers Caledonia 3 (1824): 250, footnote k ("Fergus [lord of Galloway] ... was a prince of some note, even at the court of Henry I. of England, is certain : as he took to wife, according to the heralds, genealogists, and chroniclers, Elizabeth, the natural daughter of Henry I.")]. Scots Peerage 4 (1907): 135-136 (sub Galloway), however, debunked Chalmers' statement, noting that the authorities quoted by Chalmers "do not bear out his assertion." Even so, other secondary sources have continued to repeat Chalmers' unfounded claim: See, for example, Mackenzie History of Galloway (1841): 167-172 ("Fergus ... married Elizabeth, illegitimate daughter of Henry I. of England"); Anderson Scottish Nation 2 (1862): 195 ("Fergus, lord of Galloway ... married Elizabeth, illegitimate daughter of Henry I. of England ..."); M'Kerlie Galloway in Ancient & Modern Times (1891): 155 ("It is necessary to repeat here that Fergus married Elizabeth, the natural daughter of King Henry I. of England."); Maxwell Hist. of Dumfries & Galloway (1896): 47-48 ("Fergus ... married Elizabeth, natural daughter of Henry I., and sister of Sibilla, who married Alexander I., brother of David."); Ramsay Angevin Empire (1903): 90, footnote 7 ("Gunfrith [i.e., Godred] was son of Olaf, by Afreca, daughter of Fergus of Galloway, by 'Elisabeth,' reputed natural daughter of Henry I."); Oram Lordship of Galloway (2000): 60; Green Henry I, King of England & Duke of Normandy (2006): Appendix I, Chart 2 (chart). Barrow Robert Bruce (1965): 36, footnote 2 notes that "Roger Howden calls Uchtred son of Fergus of Galloway a cousin of King Henry II (Gesta Henrici Secundi Benedicti Abbatis, ed. Stubbs, Rolls Ser., i, 80)," a relationship which Professor Barrow states "is best explained on the supposition that Fergus married a bastard daughter of Henry I." However, given that King Henry II of England had a Scottish grandmother, a more likely explanation of the kinship between the Galloway and English royal families is that the wife of Fergus was near related to the Scottish royal family, possibly being a sister of William Fitz Duncan, whose grandfather was Malcolm Canmore, King of Scots [died 1093]. This arrangement would make Uchtred son of Fergus and King Henry II of England related in the 3rd degree of kindred (or second cousins).] D'Achery Spicilegium 10 (1671): 612-613 (Continuatio Chronici Afflegemiensis: "Filia præfati Ducis Aleidis juncta matrimonio Regi Angliæ, post obitum secundi con jugis Afflegemiensis Claustri solitudinem ad reliquum vitæ ad humandum corpus elegit in domo turti Ecclesiæ contigua, cum una aut akera ancilla in Fratrum Afflegemiensiurn quieta taciturna multitudine solitaria habitavit, & beato fine quievit, de qua epitaphium: Aleidis Regina Anglim, filia Ducis Godefridi cum barba, Regnum suscepit in Anglia an MCXXI. obiit 9 Kal.

Davis King Stephen (1967): 137 ("[King] Stephen recognized three successive earls of Lincoln ... The first was William d'Aubigny pincerna who married Queen Adeliza, widow of King Henry I, and in her right became lord of the honour and castle of Arundel. He styles himself William Earl of Lincoln in three charters in which his identity is proved by references to his wife. They are in favour of Lewes Priory and the abbeys of Reading and Affligem-and in the case of Affligem there is also a charter of Adeliza referring to her husband as earl of Lincoln (Round, Geoffrey de Mandeville 3245; Warner and Ellis, Facsimiles, no. 14; E. de Marneffe, Cartulaire de l’abbaye de Affligem in Analectes pour servir à l’histoire ecclesiastique de la Belgique, 2o section, pp. 104,106). In royal charters it is usually impossible to distinguish him from his successor, William de Roumare, since the normal style of both was Willelmus comes de Lincolnia, or (before he was an earl) from his father, William d'Aubignypincerna, who died before June 1139 (Reg. iii. 973). If Robert de Torigny is right (Chronicles iv. 137) William had married Adeliza by September 1139, and it is tempting to assume that it was on his marriage that he was made earl of Lincoln, his connection with that county being that his mother, Maud Bigod, was a grand-daughter, and possible co-heiress, of Robert de Tosny of Belvoir. We do not know precisely when he was transferred from Lincoln to Sussex, but it was certainly by Christmas 1141 when he attested a charter as Comite Willelmo de Sudsexa (Reg. iii. 276).").

He married after 30 Dec. 1291 (grant of her marriage) and before 2 March 1296/7 MAUD DE CHAWORTH, daughter and heiress of Patrick de Chaworth, Knt., of Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire, Wales, East Garston and North Standen (in Hungerford), Berkshire, Kempsford, Gloucestershire, King's Somborne, Hampshire, Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire, Berwick St. James and Standon Chaworth, Wiltshire, etc., by Isabel, daughter of William de Beauchamp, Knt., 9th Earl of Warwick [see CHAWORTH 7 for her ancestry]. She was born about 1282 (aged 1 in 1283). They had one son, Henry, KG. [Duke of Lancaster, Earl of Derby, Leicester, and Lincoln], and six daughters, Blanche, Maud, Eleanor, Mary, Joan, and Isabel. In 1297 he had livery of Monmouth and the lands of his father beyond Severn. He served in Flanders in 1297-8 and during the wars with the Scots. He fought at the Battle of Falkirk 22 July 1298. He was summoned to Parliament 6 Feb. 1298/9, by writ directed Henrico de Lancastre nepoti Regis and Henrico de Lancastre, whereby he is held to have become Lord Lancaster. He took part in the Siege of Caerlaverock in 1300. He signed the Barons' letter to Pope Boniface VIII in 1301 as D’n’s de Munemue [Lord of Monmouth]. In 1306 Henry and his wife, Maud, conveyed the manors of Alderton and Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire, together with the advowsons of both churches, to William de Combemartin and his heirs. In 1307 he was pardoned for aiding the escape of John le Harper from prison. He and his wife attended the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308, where he bore the sceptre with a dove on the top. In 1310 he was one of those who forced the King to agree to the appointment of the Lords Ordainers. In 1315-16 he joined the marcher lords in suppressing the rebellion of Llywelyn Bren. In 1316 Walter, Bishop of Exeter, was summoned to answer Henry and his wife, Maud, on a plea that he permit them to present a fit parson to the church of Broadhemsbury, Devonshire, which is vacant and belongs to their gift. In 1318 Henry was in France with the king's leave in order to obtain "the heritage" which descended to him on his brother John's death. His wife, Maud, was living 4 August 1320, but died testate before 3 Dec. 1322, and was buried at Mottisfont Priory, Hampshire. In 1320 he joined the confederacy of the Marchers against the Despensers. He was heir in 1322 to his older brother, Thomas of Lancaster, Earl of Lancaster, Leicester, and Derby. In 1323 he petitioned the King and Council for the earldoms of Lancaster and Leicester. He received a writ of livery of the earldom and honour of Leicester 29 March 1324, becoming thereby Earl of Leicester. On the queen's return to England with Roger de Mortimer in Sept. 1326, he joined her party against King Edward II, which led to a general desertion of the king's cause. He was present as Earl of Lancaster and Leicester in 1326 at a meeting at Bristol which appointed Prince Edward keeper of the realm during his father, the king's absence, the king having fled to Wales. Earl Henry afterwards captured the king at Neath and took him to Llantrisant, Glamorgan 16 Nov. 1326. He was appointed to take charge of the king, and was responsible for his custody at Kenilworth until 4 April 1327. He was present at the Coronation of King Edward III 1 Feb. 1326/7. In October 1328 he refused to attend the Parliament. He soon quarreled with Queen Isabel, and, in consequence, in Jan. 1328 the queen's forces spent a week ravaging his lands in the neighborhood of Leicester. He collected an armed force and marched northwards to meet Mortimer but was forced to submit, after which his lands were handed back to him. In 1329 he was going beyond seas to France with a large retinue. In Dec. 1329 he was joined with the Bishop of Norwich in the negotiations with King Philippe VI of France. In 1330 he had license to found a hospital for poor persons and pilgrims in his town of Leicester. Upon the fall of Roger de Mortimer, his close personal relations with the young king were renewed. In 1332 the king granted him 500 marks yearly for the better maintenance of his estate. The same year Earl Henry granted the manors of Wirksworth, Bouteshale, and Iretonwood, Derbyshire to William de Walkington for life. In 1335 he was with the king at Newcastle-on-Tyne, where the invasion of Scotland by King Edward III and Edward de Balliol was planned and carried out. In 1343 he was granted an indult for plenary remission at the hour of death. In July 1345 he was appointed to the Council of Prince Lionel, Keeper of England, during the king's absence. SIR HENRY OF LANCASTER, Earl of Lancaster and Leicester, Lord of Monmouth, died 22 Sept. 1345, and was buried with great state on the north side of the high altar of Newark Abbey, Leicester, Leicestershire.

[see CHAWORTH 7], of Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire, Wales, East Garston and North Standen (in Hungerford), Berkshire, Kempsford, Gloucestershire, King's Somborne, Hampshire, Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire, Berwick St. James and Standon Chaworth, Wiltshire, etc., younger son of Patrick de Chaworth, Knt., of Kempsford, Gloucestershire, North Standen (in Hungerford), Berkshire, King's Sombome, Hampshire, Stoke Brueme, Northamptonshire, etc., by Hawise, daughter and heiress of Thomas de London, of Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire, Ogmore, Glamorgan, East Garston, Berkshire, and Hannington, Wiltshire [see CHAWORTH 6 for his ancestry]. He was born about 1254 (aged 24 in 1278). Isabel had the manor of Chedworth, Gloucestershire in free marriage. They had one daughter, Maud. In 1275-6 he arraigned an assize of novel disseisin against Nicholas Attewode and others touching a tenement in Weston Chaurz, Hampshire. In 1276 he witnessed a deed of his older brother, Pain de Chaworth, to Aaron son of Vives, a Jew. He was Captain of the king's munition in Wales in 1277. Sometime during the period, c.1278-82, Patrick witnessed a charter of Guy de Bryan to the burgesses of Laugharne, Carmarthenshire, Wales. He was heir in 1279 to his older brother, Pain de Chaworth, Knt. In 1279-80 Walter atte Berewe arraigned an assize of novel disseisin against Patrick de Chaworth and others touching a tenement in Etloe, Gloucestershire. In 1280-1 the king granted murage to the bailiffs and men of Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire for a term of five years at the instance of Patrick de Chaworth their lord. Patrick fought in Wales in 1282. On 6 June 1283, he confirmed the gift of his brother, Pain de Chaworth, to Godstow Abbey, which provided for the anniversaries of the obits of their mother, Hawise, and grandmother, Eve. SIR PATRICK DE CHAWORTH died testate shortly before 7 July 1283. His widow, Isabel, married (2nd) between 10 Sept. 1285 (record of Highworth Hundred Rolls) and 27 Jan. 1287 (date of fine for marrying without license) HUGH LE DESPENSER, Knt., of Loughborough, Arnesby, Barrow, Beaumanor, and Hugglescote (in Ibstock), Leicestershire, Ryhall, Rutlandshire, Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, Maplederwell, Hampshire, Woking, Surrey, Broad Town (then in Cliff-Pippard), Eastern (in Wootton Basset), Wootton Basset, Wiltshire, Barrowby, Hillam, Parlington, and Shippen [Ho], Yorkshire, etc., Justice of the Forest south of Trent, 1297-1307, 1308-11, 1312-15, 1324-6, Privy Councillor, 1297, Warden of the Coasts south of Trent, 1303, Constable of Devizes, Marlborough, Odiham, St. Briavel's, and Striguil Castles, son and heir of Hugh le Despenser, Knt., of Loughborough, Leicestershire, Justiciar of England, by Aline (or Aveline), daughter and heiress of Philip Basset, Knt., Justiciar of England. He was born 1 March 1260/1 (aged 14 in 1275). They had two sons, Hugh, Knt. [2nd Lord Despenser], and Philip, Knt., and four daughters, Aline (wife of Edward Burnell, Knt., Lord Burnell), Isabel, Margaret, and Elizabeth. He was heir in 1275 to his cousin, John le Despenser, by which he inherited the manor of Arnesby, Leicestershire. A letter of William de Valence to John de Kirkby indicates that the Queen exacted 1,000 marks from Hugh because of his marriage. In Jan. 1285 the king took the manor of Bollington, Cheshire because Hugh took emends of ale without warrant. In 1286 and again in 1287, he appointed attorneys, he then going beyond seas. He released all right to his lands and tenements in Soham, Cambridgeshire and Bollington in Macclesfield, Cheshire to the king in 1286-7. He was with the king in Gascony in 1287. In 1289 he was going beyond seas with Roger le Bigod, Earl of Norfolk. He presented to the churches of Cossington, Leicestershire, 1289, Stoke Brueme, Northamptonshire, 1292, 1304, and Winterbourne Houghton, Dorset, 1316, 1317. In 1292 he was granted a weekly market and year fair at Arnesby, Leicestershire. In 1293 he had license to enclosed 30 acres of wood adjoining his park at Fastern (in Wootton Basset), Wiltshire. In 1293-4 he claimed to have view of frankpledge in his manor of Barrowby, Hillam, Parlington, and Shippen [Ho], Yorkshire, and that he and his men were free from suits of counties, hundreds/wapentakes/ridings, and from sheriff's aid and murdrum and view of frankpledge. He was appointed an envoy to treat with the King of the Romans in 1294. He was summoned to Parliament from 24 June 1295 to 14 March 1321/2, by writs directed Hugoni le Despenser, whereby he is held to have become Lord Despenser. In 1295 he was going beyond seas on the king's service. The following year he was going beyond seas on an embassy for the king. In 1297 he was granted 20 oaks fit for timber by the king. The same year he took part in the expedition to Flanders. In 1297 he demised the manor of Arnesby, Leicestershire to two tenants for a term of seven years. In 1298 Maud le Barber of Garscherch testified in London court that Saer le Barber said that Sir Hugh le Despenser "kept more robbers with him than any man in England." In 1299 he was granted the manors of Chelworth and Somerford, Wiltshire, together with the bailiwick of the Forest of Braydon, by his kinsman, Robert de Kaynes (or Kaignes). He was present at the Siege of Caerlaverock in 1300. In 1300 he was going to the court of Rome on the king's special affairs. In 1301 Ralph Pipard granted him the manor of Great Haseley, Oxfordshire. In 1302 Robert de Kaynes, Knt. conveyed to him the manors of Tarrant Keyneston, Dorset and two parts of the manor of Newentone, Wales, together with the reversion of the manors of Dodford, Northamptonshire, Oxhill, Warwickshire, Coombe Keynes, Wiltshire, and a third part of Newentone, Wales. He took part in the negotiations with France which preceded the peace of 1303. In 1305 he was sent as Joint Ambassador to Pope Clement V at Lyons, where he obtained a bull absolving the king from the oaths which he had taken to his people. In Feb. 1306 Hugh received a papal indult to have a portable altar. His wife, Isabel, died shortly before 30 May 1306. At the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308, he carried part of the royal insignia. In the quarrel about Peter de Gavaston in 1308, Hugh alone sided with the king against the barons. He was regarded as a deserter from the common cause, and the parliament which met at Northampton procured his dismissal from the king's council. His disgrace was not of long duration; he received the castles of Devizes and Marlborough, and became the chief adviser of the king. On the death of Gavaston in 1312, he became the chief man of the court party, and encouraged the king to form plans of revenge against the barons. He was present at the Battle of Bannockburn 24 June 1314, and accompanied the king in his flight to Dunbar, and thence by sea to Berwick. About this time his son, Sir Hugh le Despenser, joined the king's side. He was appointed Ambassador to Pope John XXII in 1319, and Joint Ambassador to the Pope in 1320. In May and June 1321 the barons of the Welsh Marches and their adherents ravaged the lands of the younger Despenser in Wales and those of the elder throughout the country. In August of that year both Despensers were accused in Parliament, chiefly on account of the son's misconduct, of many misdeeds, including appropriating royal power to themselves, counselling the King evilly, and replacing good ministers by bad ones. They were then disinherited and exiled from the realm. The elder Hugh accordingly retired to the Continent. The sentence on the Despensers was pronounced unlawful at a provincial council of the clergy about 1 Jan. 1321/2. In March following, the elder Hugh accompanied the King against the contrariants, and was present at the judgment on Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. The proceedings against the Despensers were annulled and cancelled, and his lands restored 7 May 1322. He was created Earl of Winchester 10 May 1322, and granted £20 yearly from the issues of Hampshire, together with the Castle and manor of Brimpsfield, Gloucestershire, and the manors of Badgeworth and Syde, Gloucestershire, Ashton Giffard, Codford St. Peter, Sherrington, and Stapleford, Wiltshire (formerly belonging to John Giffard), as well as other lands formerly belonging to Thomas Mauduit, Henry le Tyeys, Warin de Lisle, and John de Kyngeston. The queen hated the Despensers, and when some difficulty arose in France, she gladly left the kingdom on an embassy to her brother, King Charles IV of France. When the queen landed in England with an armed force in Sept. 1326, she put out a proclamation against the Despensers. On the king's flight to Wales in October 1326, Earl Hugh was dispatched to defend Bristol, which, however, he at once surrendered on the arrival of the Queen. The next day, 27 October 1326, SIR HUGH LE DESPENSER, Earl of Winchester, was tried - without being allowed to speak in his own defence - condemned to death as a traitor, and hanged on the common gallows, all his honours forfeited. His head was sent to Winchester. Bridges Hist. & Antiqs. of Northamptonshire 1 (1791): 325. Nichols Hist. & Antiqs. of Leicester 3(1) (1800): 136-137.

He married after 30 Dec. 1291 (grant of her marriage) and before 2 March 1296/7 MAUD DE CHAWORTH, daughter and heiress of Patrick de Chaworth, Knt., of Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire, Wales, East Garston and North Standen (in Hungerford), Berkshire, Kempsford, Gloucestershire, King's Somborne, Hampshire, Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire, Berwick St. James and Standon Chaworth, Wiltshire, etc., by Isabel, daughter of William de Beauchamp, Knt., 9th Earl of Warwick [see CHAWORTH 7 for her ancestry]. She was born about 1282 (aged 1 in 1283). They had one son, Henry, KG. [Duke of Lancaster, Earl of Derby, Leicester, and Lincoln], and six daughters, Blanche, Maud, Eleanor, Mary, Joan, and Isabel. In 1297 he had livery of Monmouth and the lands of his father beyond Severn. He served in Flanders in 1297-8 and during the wars with the Scots. He fought at the Battle of Falkirk 22 July 1298. He was summoned to Parliament 6 Feb. 1298/9, by writ directed Henrico de Lancastre nepoti Regis and Henrico de Lancastre, whereby he is held to have become Lord Lancaster. He took part in the Siege of Caerlaverock in 1300. He signed the Barons' letter to Pope Boniface VIII in 1301 as D’n’s de Munemue [Lord of Monmouth]. In 1306 Henry and his wife, Maud, conveyed the manors of Alderton and Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire, together with the advowsons of both churches, to William de Combemartin and his heirs. In 1307 he was pardoned for aiding the escape of John le Harper from prison. He and his wife attended the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308, where he bore the sceptre with a dove on the top. In 1310 he was one of those who forced the King to agree to the appointment of the Lords Ordainers. In 1315-16 he joined the marcher lords in suppressing the rebellion of Llywelyn Bren. In 1316 Walter, Bishop of Exeter, was summoned to answer Henry and his wife, Maud, on a plea that he permit them to present a fit parson to the church of Broadhemsbury, Devonshire, which is vacant and belongs to their gift. In 1318 Henry was in France with the king's leave in order to obtain "the heritage" which descended to him on his brother John's death. His wife, Maud, was living 4 August 1320, but died testate before 3 Dec. 1322, and was buried at Mottisfont Priory, Hampshire. In 1320 he joined the confederacy of the Marchers against the Despensers. He was heir in 1322 to his older brother, Thomas of Lancaster, Earl of Lancaster, Leicester, and Derby. In 1323 he petitioned the King and Council for the earldoms of Lancaster and Leicester. He received a writ of livery of the earldom and honour of Leicester 29 March 1324, becoming thereby Earl of Leicester. On the queen's return to England with Roger de Mortimer in Sept. 1326, he joined her party against King Edward II, which led to a general desertion of the king's cause. He was present as Earl of Lancaster and Leicester in 1326 at a meeting at Bristol which appointed Prince Edward keeper of the realm during his father, the king's absence, the king having fled to Wales. Earl Henry afterwards captured the king at Neath and took him to Llantrisant, Glamorgan 16 Nov. 1326. He was appointed to take charge of the king, and was responsible for his custody at Kenilworth until 4 April 1327. He was present at the Coronation of King Edward III 1 Feb. 1326/7. In October 1328 he refused to attend the Parliament. He soon quarreled with Queen Isabel, and, in consequence, in Jan. 1328 the queen's forces spent a week ravaging his lands in the neighborhood of Leicester. He collected an armed force and marched northwards to meet Mortimer but was forced to submit, after which his lands were handed back to him. In 1329 he was going beyond seas to France with a large retinue. In Dec. 1329 he was joined with the Bishop of Norwich in the negotiations with King Philippe VI of France. In 1330 he had license to found a hospital for poor persons and pilgrims in his town of Leicester. Upon the fall of Roger de Mortimer, his close personal relations with the young king were renewed. In 1332 the king granted him 500 marks yearly for the better maintenance of his estate. The same year Earl Henry granted the manors of Wirksworth, Bouteshale, and Iretonwood, Derbyshire to William de Walkington for life. In 1335 he was with the king at Newcastle-on-Tyne, where the invasion of Scotland by King Edward III and Edward de Balliol was planned and carried out. In 1343 he was granted an indult for plenary remission at the hour of death. In July 1345 he was appointed to the Council of Prince Lionel, Keeper of England, during the king's absence. SIR HENRY OF LANCASTER, Earl of Lancaster and Leicester, Lord of Monmouth, died 22 Sept. 1345, and was buried with great state on the north side of the high altar of Newark Abbey, Leicester, Leicestershire.

[2nd Lord Despenser], and Philip, Knt., and four daughters, Aline (wife of Edward Burnell, Knt., Lord Burnell), Isabel, Margaret, and Elizabeth. He was heir in 1275 to his cousin, John le Despenser, by which he inherited the manor of Arnesby, Leicestershire. A letter of William de Valence to John de Kirkby indicates that the Queen exacted 1,000 marks from Hugh because of his marriage. In Jan. 1285 the king took the manor of Bollington, Cheshire because Hugh took emends of ale without warrant. In 1286 and again in 1287, he appointed attorneys, he then going beyond seas. He released all right to his lands and tenements in Soham, Cambridgeshire and Bollington in Macclesfield, Cheshire to the king in 1286-7. He was with the king in Gascony in 1287. In 1289 he was going beyond seas with Roger le Bigod, Earl of Norfolk. He presented to the churches of Cossington, Leicestershire, 1289, Stoke Brueme, Northamptonshire, 1292, 1304, and Winterbourne Houghton, Dorset, 1316, 1317. In 1292 he was granted a weekly market and year fair at Arnesby, Leicestershire. In 1293 he had license to enclosed 30 acres of wood adjoining his park at Fastern (in Wootton Basset), Wiltshire. In 1293-4 he claimed to have view of frankpledge in his manor of Barrowby, Hillam, Parlington, and Shippen [Ho], Yorkshire, and that he and his men were free from suits of counties, hundreds/wapentakes/ridings, and from sheriff's aid and murdrum and view of frankpledge. He was appointed an envoy to treat with the King of the Romans in 1294. He was summoned to Parliament from 24 June 1295 to 14 March 1321/2, by writs directed Hugoni le Despenser, whereby he is held to have become Lord Despenser. In 1295 he was going beyond seas on the king's service. The following year he was going beyond seas on an embassy for the king. In 1297 he was granted 20 oaks fit for timber by the king. The same year he took part in the expedition to Flanders. In 1297 he demised the manor of Arnesby, Leicestershire to two tenants for a term of seven years. In 1298 Maud le Barber of Garscherch testified in London court that Saer le Barber said that Sir Hugh le Despenser "kept more robbers with him than any man in England." In 1299 he was granted the manors of Chelworth and Somerford, Wiltshire, together with the bailiwick of the Forest of Braydon, by his kinsman, Robert de Kaynes (or Kaignes). He was present at the Siege of Caerlaverock in 1300. In 1300 he was going to the court of Rome on the king's special affairs. In 1301 Ralph Pipard granted him the manor of Great Haseley, Oxfordshire. In 1302 Robert de Kaynes, Knt. conveyed to him the manors of Tarrant Keyneston, Dorset and two parts of the manor of Newentone, Wales, together with the reversion of the manors of Dodford, Northamptonshire, Oxhill, Warwickshire, Coombe Keynes, Wiltshire, and a third part of Newentone, Wales. He took part in the negotiations with France which preceded the peace of 1303. In 1305 he was sent as Joint Ambassador to Pope Clement V at Lyons, where he obtained a bull absolving the king from the oaths which he had taken to his people. In Feb. 1306 Hugh received a papal indult to have a portable altar. His wife, Isabel, died shortly before 30 May 1306. At the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308, he carried part of the royal insignia. In the quarrel about Peter de Gavaston in 1308, Hugh alone sided with the king against the barons. He was regarded as a deserter from the common cause, and the parliament which met at Northampton procured his dismissal from the king's council. His disgrace was not of long duration; he received the castles of Devizes and Marlborough, and became the chief adviser of the king. On the death of Gavaston in 1312, he became the chief man of the court party, and encouraged the king to form plans of revenge against the barons. He was present at the Battle of Bannockburn 24 June 1314, and accompanied the king in his flight to Dunbar, and thence by sea to Berwick. About this time his son, Sir Hugh le Despenser, joined the king's side. He was appointed Ambassador to Pope John XXII in 1319, and Joint Ambassador to the Pope in 1320. In May and June 1321 the barons of the Welsh Marches and their adherents ravaged the lands of the younger Despenser in Wales and those of the elder throughout the country. In August of that year both Despensers were accused in Parliament, chiefly on account of the son's misconduct, of many misdeeds, including appropriating royal power to themselves, counselling the King evilly, and replacing good ministers by bad ones. They were then disinherited and exiled from the realm. The elder Hugh accordingly retired to the Continent. The sentence on the Despensers was pronounced unlawful at a provincial council of the clergy about 1 Jan. 1321/2. In March following, the elder Hugh accompanied the King against the contrariants, and was present at the judgment on Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. The proceedings against the Despensers were annulled and cancelled, and his lands restored 7 May 1322. He was created Earl of Winchester 10 May 1322, and granted £20 yearly from the issues of Hampshire, together with the Castle and manor of Brimpsfield, Gloucestershire, and the manors of Badgeworth and Syde, Gloucestershire, Ashton Giffard, Codford St. Peter, Sherrington, and Stapleford, Wiltshire (formerly belonging to John Giffard), as well as other lands formerly belonging to Thomas Mauduit, Henry le Tyeys, Warin de Lisle, and John de Kyngeston. The queen hated the Despensers, and when some difficulty arose in France, she gladly left the kingdom on an embassy to her brother, King Charles IV of France. When the queen landed in England with an armed force in Sept. 1326, she put out a proclamation against the Despensers. On the king's flight to Wales in October 1326, Earl Hugh was dispatched to defend Bristol, which, however, he at once surrendered on the arrival of the Queen. The next day, 27 October 1326, SIR HUGH LE DESPENSER, Earl of Winchester, was tried - without being allowed to speak in his own defence - condemned to death as a traitor, and hanged on the common gallows, all his honours forfeited. His head was sent to Winchester. Bridges Hist. & Antiqs. of Northamptonshire 1 (1791): 325. Nichols Hist. & Antiqs. of Leicester 3(1) (1800): 136-137.

She married (1st) in or before 1090 SIMON DE SENLIS, in right of his wife, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, and, lord of Conington, Huntingdonshire, Tottenham, Middlesex, Fotheringay, Northamptonshire, etc. They had two sons, Simon [Earl of Northampton] and [Saint] Waltheof [Prior of Kirkham, Abbot of Melrose], and one daughter, Maud. By an unknown mistress, he had an illegitimate son, Simon. He went on crusade in 1095. In 1098 he was captured during the Vexin campaign of King William Rufus in 1098, and was subsequently ransomed. He witnessed King Henry I's charter of liberties issued at his coronation in 1100. He attested royal charters in England from 1100-3, 1106-7, and 1109-11. Sometime in the period, 1093-1100, he and his wife, Maud, founded the Priory of St. Andrew's, Northampton. He reportedly built the first castle at Northampton. He witnessed a grant of King Henry I to Bath Abbey 8 August 1111 at Bishop's Waltham, as the king was crossing to Normandy. Simon and his wife, Maud, gave the tithe of Tottenham, Middlesex to the monks of St. Andrew's, Northampton. SIMON DE SENLIS, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, subsequently went abroad and died at La Charité-sur-Loire, and was buried there in the new priory church. The date of his death is uncertain. His widow, Maud, married (2nd) before Midsummer 1113 DAVID I, King of Scots [see SCOTLAND 2], 6th and youngest son of Malcolm III Canmore, King of Scots, by his 2nd wife, Margaret [see SCOTLAND I for his ancestry]. He was probably born about 1085. They had two sons, Malcolm and Henry [Earl of Northumberland], and two daughters, Clarisse and Hodierne. David was recognized as Earl of Huntingdon to the exclusion of his step-son, Simon; the earldom of Northampton reverted to the crown. As Earl of Huntingdon, he made various grants to St. Andrew's, Northampton. In 1113 he founded an abbey at Selkirk, afterwards removed to Kelso, and gave it land at Hardingstone and Northampton. He founded another abbey at Jedworth in 1118. He succeeded, his brother, Alexander I, as King of Scotland 25 April 1124. In 1127 he joined in the Barons' recognition of Empress Maud to succeed her father on the throne of England. When Stephen seized the crown, David took arms against him. His wife, Queen Maud, died 1130 or 1131, and was buried at Scone. About 1132 he gave the church of Tottenham, Middlesex to the canons of the church of Holy Trinity, London. In 1136 King David I resigned the earldom of Huntingdon to his son, Henry, who did homage to Stephen. David was defeated at the Battle of Standard 22 August 1138. DAVID I, King of Scots, died at Carlisle 24 May 1153, and was buried at Dunfermline, Fife.

This earldom came to King David by right of his wife, Maud daughter of Earl Waltheof, but he was her second husband and his claim was disputed by Simon de Senlis II who was Maud's son by her first marriage. Stephen was predisposed towards Simon (who supported him loyally) but anxious not to make an enemy of King David if he could help it, and he seems to have aimed at a compromise whereby Northampton would be detached from the earldom of Huntingdon and made a separate earldom for Simon. So far as Huntingdon was concerned, he granted it to King David's son Henry at the Treaty of Durham (5 February 1136). Henry presumably forfeited it during the Scottish war of 1138, but held it again from the second Treaty of Durham (9 April 1139) till the end of 1141, when he finally lost it. It was subsequently held by Simon de Senlis II together with Northampton (G.W.S. Barrow, in Regesta Regum Scottorum i. 102).").

Simon as the son-in-law of Waltheof had a hereditary claim to the earldom, though not to the town ... It has been doubted whether Simon received the earldom before Henry l's time (Farrer, Honors and Knights' Fees, ii. 296), but he attests a charter of the previous reign as earl (Davis, op. cit., no. 315) and was already earl at Henry's coronation. There is some evidence that Henry I granted the earldom of Northampton as well as that of Huntingdon to David of Scotland, the husband of Simon's widow, but he kept the lordship of the town in his own hands and it was being farmed from the Crown in 1130.).

HENRY OF SCOTLAND, Earl of Northumberland, married ADA DE WARRENE [see SCOTLAND 3].” 3. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): “ISABEL (or ELIZABETH) DE VERMANDOIS, married (1st) in early 1096 ROBERT OF MEULAN (or DE BEAUMONT), Knt.,* Count of Meulan, seigneur of Beaumont, Pont-Audemer, Brionne, and Vatteville (all in Normandy), son and heir of Roger de Beaumont, seigneur of Pont Audemer, Brionne, la Haye-Aubrée, Sahuz, Tourville, Vieilles, etc., chatelain of Beaumont-le-Roger, by Adeline (or Aline), daughter of Waleran (or Galeran) [I], Count of Meulan. He was born about 1046. They had three sons, Waleran (or Galeran) [II] [Count of Meulan, Earl of Worcester], Robert, Knt. [1st Earl of Leicester], and Hugh [said to be Earl of Bedford], and five daughters, including Adeline (wife of Hugues IV, seigneur of Montfort-sur-Risle), Aubrey (wife of Hugues II, seigneur of Châteauneuf), Maud, and Isabel (or Elizabeth). When he was very young, he accompanied William, Duke of Normandy [future King William], to England and distinguished himself at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. He subsequently received large grants of land in Warwickshire, with smaller holdings in Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and Wiltshire. Sometime in the period, 1066-77, Robert and his father, Roger, attested a royal confirmation for St.-Etienne, Caen. As "Robert de Beaumont," he witnessed a charter of Eudes, Bishop of Bayeux [half-brother of King William the Conqueror] dated probably in 1079. In 1080 he and his father were present at the king's court in Normandy. Robert became Count of Meulan about autumn 1080, following the death of his maternal uncle, Hugues II, Count of Meulan. As "Robert, Count of Meulan," he attested a charter of King Philippe I of France dated 6 Jan. 1082 following the Christmas court of King Philippe I in 1081. He was back at the Norman ducal court on 5 Sept. 1082, where he joined his father and brother as witnesses to a suit adjudicated in the presence of King William the Conqueror. About 1088 he quarreled with Duke Robert of Normandy about the castellanship of Brionne, in consequence of the exchange of Brionne for Ivry made by his father. He was present at the ducal court in 1087, 1088, 1089, 1091, and on three further occasions during the early 1090s. In 1097, when King William Rufus invaded France, he admitted him to his castle of Meulan. He was present at the king's death in 1100. On the accession of King Henry I, he supported Henry in the general rising which followed and became his trusted counsellor. On the death of Ives de Grandmesnil on Crusade, he retained his estates, which Ives had mortgaged to him about 1102. Thereby he acquired one-quarter of the town of Leicester, the whole of which was later granted to him by the king. After obtaining the whole town of Leicester, he is said to have become Earl of Leicester, but being already Count of Meulan, he was never so styled. In 1103 he was dispatched by King Henry on a mission to Normandy. The same year he betrothed his infant daughter to Amaury, youngest son of Simon de Montfort, as part of a treaty to end conflicts amongst the "warlike marchers." In 1104 he was one of the Norman barons who adhered to King Henry on his arrival in Normandy. He was present in the king's army at the Battle of Tenchebrai in 1106. In 1110 he was besieged at Meulan by King Louis VI, who took the castle by storm. In the following year he retaliated by a raid on Paris, which he plundered. In 1112 he gave the manor of Chisenbury, Wiltshire for the kitchen of the monks of Bec Abbey. ROBERT OF MEULAN, Count of Meulan, died 5 June 1118, and was buried in the chapter-house of the Abbey of St.-Pierre, Preaux. His widow, Isabel, married (2nd) WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 2nd Earl of Surrey (usually styled Earl of Warenne), son and heir of William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, by his 1st wife, Gundred, sister of Gerbod the Fleming, Earl of Chester. They had three sons, William [3rd Earl of Surrey], Ralph, and Reynold, and two daughters, Ada and Gundred. In 1090 he was among those fighting in Normandy against Robert de Belleme who was supported by Duke Robert. He witnessed three charters of the king at Windsor in Sept. 1101. In autumn 1101 he accompanied Duke Robert to Normandy, supporting him against the king, and was deprived of his inheritance in England. In 1103, however, as a result of the duke's intercession, he was restored to the earldom of Surrey by the king. In 1106 he accompanied the king to Normandy, and commanded a division of his army at the Battle of Tinchebrai. In 1109 he was present at a council held at Nottingham. In 1110 he was with the king at Dover, becoming a surety for the performance of the treaty with Robert, Count of Flanders. In 1111 he was one of the optimates who acted in a judicial capacity in a plea in Normandy; about that time he was given the castle of Saint-Saens by the king, which had been forfeited by Elias de Saint-Saens. In 1119 he commanded a division at the Battle of Brémule. In 1131 he was present a the council at Northampton. He was one of the earls present at the death of King Henry I 1 Dec. 1135. The same month he was given the administration of the region of Rouen and the pays de Caux. He was present at the court of King Stephen at Easter 1136. William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey, died 11 May 1138, and was buried at his father's feet in the chapter-house at Lewes, Sussex. His widow, Isabel, was living c.1138. She died 13 (or 17) February, sometime before June 1147, when her son, William de Warenne, 3rd Earl of Surrey, left on crusade. (* The latest datable document that Robert attests as "Robert de Beaumont" is a charter of King William the Conqueror for Lessay dated 14 July 1080. Robert acquired the county of Meulan shortly thereafter and thenceforth always attested with his comital title [see Vaughn Anselm of Bec & Robert of Meulan (1987): 88]. There is no evidence that either Robert or his male descendants used the name "de Beaumont" after the year 1082, when Robert first occurs as Robert, Count of Meulan.)

6067	RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): “HENRY OF SCOTLAND, 2nd but eldest surviving son and heir apparent, born about 1114. In 1136 he succeeded his father King David as Earl of Huntingdon. About 1136 he granted 20s. annually from his mill of Huntingdon to the church of St. Neots, Cambridgeshire. About 1136 he confirmed a grant of 40s from the rent of Huntingdon to the monks of St. Andrew's, Northampton. About 1136 he confirmed the rights of the church of St. Andrew's, Northampton. During the wars between his father and King Stephen of England, he fought on the Scottish side at the Battle of the Standard in 1138. On peace being made in 1139, he received the earldom of Northumberland, the cities of Newcastle and Bamborough being excepted. He married in 1139 ADA DE WARENNE, daughter of William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey, by Isabel (or Elizabeth), daughter of Hugh le Grand, Count of Crepy [see VERMANDOIS 5 for her ancestry]. They had three sons, Malcolm (IV) [King of Scots, Earl of Huntingdon], William the Lion [King of Scots, Earl of Huntingdon], and David [Earl of Huntingdon], and four daughters, Maud, Margaret (or Margery), Ada, and ___. He subsequently became a favorite of King Stephen, remaining with him in England for some time. About 1139 he granted the monks of Wetheral freedom from toll. About 1140 he granted protection of the possessions of the monks of Durham. About 1141 he granted a fishing in the Tyne and a ploughgate of land to the monks of St. Cuthbert. About 1141 he granted Clerchetune to the church of St. Mary of Haddington. In 1150 he founded the Abbey of Holmecultram in Cumberland. At an unknown date, he gave Ughtred of London 140 acres in the 'hanger' of Tottenham, Middlesex, together with half of a water-meadow which Ingram, chancellor of Scotland and bishop of Glasgow, had held, the right to take four tree-trunks a year, and pannage for ten pigs. At an unknown date, he granted Brinkburn Priory a saltpan in Warkworth, Northumberland. HENRY OF SCOTLAND, Earl of Northumberland, died 12 June 1152, and was buried at Kelso Abbey, Roxburghshire. In 1152-3 his widow, Ada, granted a toft in Haddington to Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, for the soul of Earl Henry and others.

He went to France with King Henry II in 1159, and was present at the Siege of Toulouse. He was knighted by King Henry II at Tours in 1159/60. He founded the Abbey of Coupar Angus in 1161, and the Hospital of St. Margaret at Huntingdon in or before 1165.

She married (1st) in or before 1090 SIMON DE SENLIS, in right of his wife, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, and, lord of Conington, Huntingdonshire, Tottenham, Middlesex, Fotheringay, Northamptonshire, etc. They had two sons, Simon [Earl of Northampton] and [Saint] Waltheof [Prior of Kirkham, Abbot of Melrose], and one daughter, Maud. By an unknown mistress, he had an illegitimate son, Simon. He went on crusade in 1095. In 1098 he was captured during the Vexin campaign of King William Rufus in 1098, and was subsequently ransomed. He witnessed King Henry I's charter of liberties issued at his coronation in 1100. He attested royal charters in England from 1100-3, 1106-7, and 1109-11. Sometime in the period, 1093-1100, he and his wife, Maud, founded the Priory of St. Andrew's, Northampton. He reportedly built the first castle at Northampton. He witnessed a grant of King Henry I to Bath Abbey 8 August 1111 at Bishop's Waltham, as the king was crossing to Normandy. Simon and his wife, Maud, gave the tithe of Tottenham, Middlesex to the monks of St. Andrew's, Northampton. SIMON DE SENLIS, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, subsequently went abroad and died at La Charité-sur-Loire, and was buried there in the new priory church. The date of his death is uncertain. His widow, Maud, married (2nd) before Midsummer 1113 DAVID I, King of Scots [see SCOTLAND 2], 6th and youngest son of Malcolm III Canmore, King of Scots, by his 2nd wife, Margaret [see SCOTLAND I for his ancestry]. He was probably born about 1085. They had two sons, Malcolm and Henry [Earl of Northumberland], and two daughters, Clarisse and Hodierne. David was recognized as Earl of Huntingdon to the exclusion of his step-son, Simon; the earldom of Northampton reverted to the crown. As Earl of Huntingdon, he made various grants to St. Andrew's, Northampton. In 1113 he founded an abbey at Selkirk, afterwards removed to Kelso, and gave it land at Hardingstone and Northampton. He founded another abbey at Jedworth in 1118. He succeeded, his brother, Alexander I, as King of Scotland 25 April 1124. In 1127 he joined in the Barons' recognition of Empress Maud to succeed her father on the throne of England. When Stephen seized the crown, David took arms against him. His wife, Queen Maud, died 1130 or 1131, and was buried at Scone. About 1132 he gave the church of Tottenham, Middlesex to the canons of the church of Holy Trinity, London. In 1136 King David I resigned the earldom of Huntingdon to his son, Henry, who did homage to Stephen. David was defeated at the Battle of Standard 22 August 1138.

This earldom came to King David by right of his wife, Maud daughter of Earl Waltheof, but he was her second husband and his claim was disputed by Simon de Senlis II who was Maud's son by her first marriage. Stephen was predisposed towards Simon (who supported him loyally) but anxious not to make an enemy of King David if he could help it, and he seems to have aimed at a compromise whereby Northampton would be detached from the earldom of Huntingdon and made a separate earldom for Simon. So far as Huntingdon was concerned, he granted it to King David's son Henry at the Treaty of Durham (5 February 1136). Henry presumably forfeited it during the Scottish war of 1138, but held it again from the second Treaty of Durham (9 April 1139) till the end of 1141, when he finally lost it. It was subsequently held by Simon de Senlis II together with Northampton (G.W.S. Barrow, in Regesta Regum Scottorum i. 102).").

It has been doubted whether Simon received the earldom before Henry l's time (Farrer, Honors and Knights' Fees, ii. 296), but he attests a charter of the previous reign as earl (Davis, op. cit., no. 315) and was already earl at Henry's coronation. There is some evidence that Henry I granted the earldom of Northampton as well as that of Huntingdon to David of Scotland, the husband of Simon's widow, but he kept the lordship of the town in his own hands and it was being farmed from the Crown in 1130.).

He was born about 1046. They had three sons, Waleran (or Galeran) [II] [Count of Meulan, Earl of Worcester], Robert, Knt. [1st Earl of Leicester], and Hugh [said to be Earl of Bedford], and five daughters, including Adeline (wife of Hugues IV, seigneur of Montfort-sur-Risle), Aubrey (wife of Hugues II, seigneur of Châteauneuf), Maud, and Isabel (or Elizabeth). When he was very young, he accompanied William, Duke of Normandy [future King William], to England and distinguished himself at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. He subsequently received large grants of land in Warwickshire, with smaller holdings in Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and Wiltshire. Sometime in the period, 1066-77, Robert and his father, Roger, attested a royal confirmation for St.-Etienne, Caen. As "Robert de Beaumont," he witnessed a charter of Eudes, Bishop of Bayeux [half-brother of King William the Conqueror] dated probably in 1079. In 1080 he and his father were present at the king's court in Normandy. Robert became Count of Meulan about autumn 1080, following the death of his maternal uncle, Hugues II, Count of Meulan. As "Robert, Count of Meulan," he attested a charter of King Philippe I of France dated 6 Jan. 1082 following the Christmas court of King Philippe I in 1081. He was back at the Norman ducal court on 5 Sept. 1082, where he joined his father and brother as witnesses to a suit adjudicated in the presence of King William the Conqueror. About 1088 he quarreled with Duke Robert of Normandy about the castellanship of Brionne, in consequence of the exchange of Brionne for Ivry made by his father. He was present at the ducal court in 1087, 1088, 1089, 1091, and on three further occasions during the early 1090s. In 1097, when King William Rufus invaded France, he admitted him to his castle of Meulan. He was present at the king's death in 1100. On the accession of King Henry I, he supported Henry in the general rising which followed and became his trusted counsellor. On the death of Ives de Grandmesnil on Crusade, he retained his estates, which Ives had mortgaged to him about 1102. Thereby he acquired one-quarter of the town of Leicester, the whole of which was later granted to him by the king. After obtaining the whole town of Leicester, he is said to have become Earl of Leicester, but being already Count of Meulan, he was never so styled. In 1103 he was dispatched by King Henry on a mission to Normandy. The same year he betrothed his infant daughter to Amaury, youngest son of Simon de Montfort, as part of a treaty to end conflicts amongst the "warlike marchers." In 1104 he was one of the Norman barons who adhered to King Henry on his arrival in Normandy. He was present in the king's army at the Battle of Tenchebrai in 1106. In 1110 he was besieged at Meulan by King Louis VI, who took the castle by storm. In the following year he retaliated by a raid on Paris, which he plundered. In 1112 he gave the manor of Chisenbury, Wiltshire for the kitchen of the monks of Bec Abbey. ROBERT OF MEULAN, Count of Meulan, died 5 June 1118, and was buried in the chapter-house of the Abbey of St.-Pierre, Preaux. His widow, Isabel, married (2nd) WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 2nd Earl of Surrey (usually styled Earl of Warenne), son and heir of William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, by his 1st wife, Gundred, sister of Gerbod the Fleming, Earl of Chester. They had three sons, William [3rd Earl of Surrey], Ralph, and Reynold, and two daughters, Ada and Gundred. In 1090 he was among those fighting in Normandy against Robert de Belleme who was supported by Duke Robert. He witnessed three charters of the king at Windsor in Sept. 1101. In autumn 1101 he accompanied Duke Robert to Normandy, supporting him against the king, and was deprived of his inheritance in England. In 1103, however, as a result of the duke's intercession, he was restored to the earldom of Surrey by the king. In 1106 he accompanied the king to Normandy, and commanded a division of his army at the Battle of Tinchebrai. In 1109 he was present at a council held at Nottingham. In 1110 he was with the king at Dover, becoming a surety for the performance of the treaty with Robert, Count of Flanders. In 1111 he was one of the optimates who acted in a judicial capacity in a plea in Normandy; about that time he was given the castle of Saint-Saens by the king, which had been forfeited by Elias de Saint-Saens. In 1119 he commanded a division at the Battle of Brémule. In 1131 he was present a the council at Northampton. He was one of the earls present at the death of King Henry I 1 Dec. 1135. The same month he was given the administration of the region of Rouen and the pays de Caux. He was present at the court of King Stephen at Easter 1136. William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey, died 11 May 1138, and was buried at his father's feet in the chapter-house at Lewes, Sussex. His widow, Isabel, was living c.1138. She died 13 (or 17) February, sometime before June 1147, when her son, William de Warenne, 3rd Earl of Surrey, left on crusade. (* The latest datable document that Robert attests as "Robert de Beaumont" is a charter of King William the Conqueror for Lessay dated 14 July 1080. Robert acquired the county of Meulan shortly thereafter and thenceforth always attested with his comital title [see Vaughn Anselm of Bec & Robert of Meulan (1987): 88].

He married at Alnwick, Northumberland 1 June 1225 ISABEL OF SCOTLAND, daughter of William the Lion, King of Scots, by Ermengarde, daughter of Richard de Beaumont, Vicomte of Beaumont [see SCOTLAND 4 for her ancestry]. They had no issue. While still under age, he entered into his inheritance in 1228. He was knighted by King Henry III at Gloucester in 1233. He unsuccessfully disputed Simon de Montfort's claim to the Stewardship at the Coronation of Queen Eleanor. In 1242 he served the king in the early part of the disastrous campaign in Poitou. In 1245 he was chief of the English delegation to the Council of Lyons, and chief of the plenipotentiarires to treat of peace between the Emperor and the Pope. The same year he repudiated his wife, nominally on the ground of consanguinity. He was compelled by ecclesiastical sentence to take her back in 1253. The king confirmed his mother's commission of the marshalcy to him in 1246. In 1253 he witnessed a sentence of excommunication and anathema against violators of the liberties of the church and of the realm. In 1254 he brought over the king's message to the Grand Council for a supply of money. In 1257 he was member of an abortive embassy to France to demand certain rights. In 1258 he served as one of the ambassadors to attend the conference at Cambray. His wife, Isabel, appears to have been living in Gloucestershire in October 1263. Her exact date of death is unknown, but she was buried in the Black Friars, London. In 1270 he wrote the king asking him to allow Roger, son of his brother Hugh, to be his attorney as Marshal.

In 1152 his father gave him as a hostage to King Stephen at the Siege of Newbury. At a later date, his father sent him to his cousin, William de Tancarville, Chamberlain of Normandy, with whom he remained for eight years as a squire. In 1167, while riding near the castle of Lusigan in Poitou with his uncle, Patrick, Earl of Salisbury, and Queen Eleanor, two of the Lusignan brothers attacked and killed Earl Patrick who was unarmed; William was wounded and taken prisoner while defending the Queen's retreat into the castle. Eventually he was ransomed by Queen Eleanor and returned to England. During the period, 1170-83, he was a member of the household of Henry "the Young King." In 1173 he supported Henry the Young King in his rebellion against King Henry II. Young Henry chose to knight him, and on his death bed in 1183, Henry charged him to carry his cross to the Holy Sepulchre. When William returned to England c.1187, King Henry II made him a member of his household. He was granted the manor of Cartmel, Lancashire by the king in 1187, where the following year he founded a priory for Regular canons of the order of St. Augustine. He was with King Henry II in France in 1188 and 1189. He was present at King Henry II's deathbed at Chinon in July 1189, and escorted the body to Fontevrault. He married in London in August 1189 ISABEL DE CLARE, daughter of Richard Fitz Gilbert [de Clare], 2nd Earl of Pembroke, by Eve, daughter of Dairmait Macmurchada, King of Leinster [see PEMBROKE 4 for her ancestry]. They had five sons, William, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke], Richard, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke], Gilbert, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke], Walter, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke and Lincoln], and Anselm [Earl of Pembroke], and five daughters, Maud, Isabel, Sibyl, Eve, and Joan. She was heiress in 1185-89 of her brother, Gilbert Fitz Richard (otherwise known as Gilbert de Strigoil). He was present at the Coronation of King Richard I in 1189, where he bore the gold scepter with the cross. Shortly afterwards he was appointed one of the subordinate Justiciars of England, first under Hugh, Bishop of Durham, and then under William de Longchamp. In 1190 he fined for 2,000 marks for a moiety of the lands of Walter Giffard, sometime Earl of Buckingham, including the manors of Chilton, Dorton, Long Crendon, and Loughton, Buckinghamshire, Caversham and Long Wittenham, Berkshire, and Wootton Rivers, Wiltshire, together with the fief of Longueville in Normandy. In 1191, when the Archbishop of Rouen superceded Longchamp, William became his chief assistant. When John, Count of Mortain (later King John) revolted in 1193, William besieged and took Windsor Castle. He was heir in 1194 to his elder brother, John Marshal, whereby he succeeded his brother as hereditary Master Marshal. He took part in the Siege of Nottingham Castle in 1194. From 1194 to 1199, he was almost continually in Normandy with King Richard I. One of Richard's last acts was to appoint him custodian of Rouen and the royal treasure there. He was present at the Coronation of King John in 1199. In 1200 the king confirmed the marshalship to him. He served John actively in Gascony, England, and Normandy. William may have paid a brief visit to Ireland in the winter of 1200-1. In 1201 he was granted a yearly fair to be held at the borough of Pembroke in Wales. In 1202 he loaned money to his kinsman, Geoffrey II, Count of Perche, who was preparing to go on crusade. In 1204 he was sent with Robert, Earl of Leicester as ambassadors to negotiate a truce with King Philippe Auguste of France. In 1204 he was granted a weekly market to be held in the vill of Castle Goodrich, Herefordshire. The same year he invaded Wales and captured Kilgerran. In 1206 he gave the Templars the advowson of the church of Speen, Berkshire. He spent most of his time in Ireland from 1207 to 1213. In 1213 he witnessed King John's charter of resignation to the Pope. He was given charge of the Castles of Haverfordwest, Carmarthen, Cardigan, and Gower, and Dunamase in Ireland. He was one of the few English earls to remain loyal to the king through the First Barons' War. He was one of the king's representatives at Runnymede in 1215. Following the death of King John in 1216, he was named by the king's council to serve as Regent of the Kingdom. In 1217 he routed the French and the rebel Barons at Lincoln. In Sept. 1217 he concluded the treaty of Lambeth with Prince Louis. In 1218 he was granted weekly markets to be held at his manors of Toddington, Bedfordshire, Speen, Berkshire, Long Crendon, Buckinghamshire, and Bosham, Sussex, and yearly fairs at Toddington, Bedfordshire and Sturminster Marshall, Dorset. During his lifetime, he founded and endowed monasteries at Voto (or Tintern Minor), Duiske (or Graig-na-Managh), and Kilkenny, in Ireland. He was also a benefactor to the chapter of Lisieux, the abbeys of Foucarmont, Gloucester, Tintern, Nutley, and St. Thomas, Dublin, the priories of Longueville, Bradenstoke, Pembroke, Pill, and Stanley, Holy Trinity and St. Kevin, Dublin, the Templars, and other religious bodies.

WILLIAM MARSHAL, Knt., 5th Earl of Pembroke, hereditary Master Marshal, hereditary Steward of Leinster, of Hampstead Marshall, Berkshire, Silchester, Hampshire, Hinxworth, Hertfordshire, Great Bedwyn, Wexcombe (in Great Bedwyn), and Wootton Rivers, Wiltshire, etc., joint Warden of Bamborough Castle, 1212, Constable (or Keeper) of Caerleon, Carmarthen, Cardigan, Ludgarshall, and Marlborough Castles, Receiver of the Exchange of all of England, 1217-21, Justiciar of Ireland, 1224-6, son and heir, born about 1190, in Normandy. In 1205 his father gave him to King John as a hostage for his loyalty; he was released in 1212. He married (1st) in 1214 ALICE DE BETHUNE, daughter of Baldwin de Bethune, Count of Aumale, by Hawise, daughter of William, Count of Aumale. They had no issue. Her dowry included the manor of Wantage, Berkshire. He joined the baronial opposition, and in Feb. 1214/5 he was present at the meeting of the barons at Stamford. In June he was elected one of the 25 Barons to ensure the execution of the provisions of Magna Carta. He was subsequently excommunicated by the Pope 11 Dec. 1215. His wife, Alice, was living Sept. 1215. She died probably about 1216, and was buried in St. Paul's Cathedral, London. In the period, 1215-19, he confirmed the legacy left by his former wife, Alice de Bethun, of 100s. from her manor of Luton, Bedfordshire to the dean and chapter of St. Paul's, London for the foundation of a chantry in the church of St. Paul's. In the same period, he also gave a rent of 20s. from his mill at Brache (in Luton), Bedfordshire to the church of St. Paul, London for the celebration of the obit of his wife, and for a light for her tomb. In April 1216 he had letters of safe conduct to go to his father. In May 1216 he was one of the Barons who joined Louis of France and did homage to him. In July 1216 he seized Worcester for Louis, but retreated when the Earl of Chester approached. In the autumn he deserted Louis and retired to Wales. In March 1216/7 he joined William Longespée, Earl of Salisbury in a revolt at Rye against Louis, who was only saved by the arrival of a French fleet. With Salisbury he besieged and took the Castles of Winchester and Southampton, after which he besieged and captured Marlborough Castle. He fought at the Battle of Lincoln 20 May 1217. In May 1219 he succeeded his father in the Earldom and estates, but he ceded the Norman lands to his brother Richard 20 May 1220. In 1223 he sailed from Ireland with a large force to fight the Welsh, recaputured his castles, defeated Llywelyn and compelled him to come to terms. He married (2nd) by betrothal dated 23 April 1224 ELEANOR OF ENGLAND, daughter of John, King of England, by his 2nd wife, Isabel, daughter and heiress of Ademar (or Aimar) III Taillefer, Count of Angoulême [see ENGLAND 5 for her ancestry]. She was born at Gloucester in 1215. Her maritagium included the manors of Brabourne and Sutton, Kent. They had no issue. In 1224 he wrote Hubert de Burgh the justiciar requesting justice for John Marshal his kinsman. Sometime before 1224 he enfeoffed Fulk Fitz Warin with the manor of Wantage, Berkshire. He was appointed one of the executors in the 1225 will of William Longespée, Earl of Salisbury. He was appointed joint Ambassador to France in 1225 and joint Ambassador to the German Congress at Antwerp in 1227. In 1229 Roger de Dauntsey, Knt., and his wife, Maud de Mandeville, Countess of Essex and Hereford, sold him one moiety of the manor of Long Compton, Warwickshire, except the capital messuage. In 1230 he accompanied the king on his fruitless march to Bordeaux. He founded the house of Friars Preachers at Kilkenny, and was a benefactor to the abbeys of Tintern and Mottisfont, the priory of Inistioge, St. Paul's Cathedral, and the hospital of St. Mary Rounceval. SIR WILLIAM MARSHALL, 5th Earl of Pembroke, died 6 April 1231, and was buried 15 April 1231 in the Temple Church, London. His widow, Eleanor, married (2nd) in the King's chapel at Westminster 7 Jan. 1237/8 SIMON DE MONTFORT, Knt., Earl of Leicester, High Steward of England, Governor of Gascony [see LEICESTER 10], 3rd son of Simon de Montfort, Earl of Leicester, seigneur of Montfort, by Alice, daughter of Bouchard de Montmorency, seigneur of Montmorency, Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, Heronville, and Ecouen. He was born about 1208. They had five sons, Henry, Knt., Simon, Knt., Amaury (clerk), Guy [Count of Nola], and Richard, and two daughters, including Eleanor (wife of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Prince of Wales, lord of Snowdon). In 1229 his older brother, Amaury de Montfort, surrendered to him all their father's inheritance in England. In August 1231 King Henry III restored him in his father's lands in England. In 1236 he served as High Steward at Queen Eleanor's coronation. In 1240 he embarked on a Crusade to the Holy Land and returned to Europe in Spring 1242. He took part in King Henry III's unsuccessful expedition to Poitou in 1242. In 1253 he and his wife, Eleanor, were granted Kenilworth castle, Warwickshire, and the manor of Odiham, Hampshire for life. In 1254 he was sent to Scotland on a secret mission for the king. In 1263 Parliament denounced the king as "false to his oath" and declared war on all violators of the "Provisions." In July 1263 Earl Simon and the barons entered London, where he made the king ratify his concessions. In 1264 a decisive battle was fought at Lewes, where the King and his son Edward were captured. Simon subsequently carried on the government under the King's name and seal, including the summoning of a Parliament in London in Jan. 1265. SIR SIMON DE MONTFORT, Earl of Leicester, was slain at the Battle of Evesham 4 August 1265, and was buried at Evesham Abbey. His tomb at Evesham at once became a shrine at which miracles were wrought. He left a will dated 1 Jan. 1259. His widow, Eleanor, went into exile about Nov. 1265. She retired to the convent of the sisters of Saint-Dominique near Montargis in France, where she died testate 13 April 1275.

In 1220 his older brother, William ceded all his Norman lands to him. He married in 1222 GERVAISE DE DINAN, widow of Juhel II de Mayenne, seigneur of Mayenne and Dinan (died 2 or 4 May 1220) [see BOHUN 4.iii], and Geoffroi I, Vicomte of Rohan (died 25 Sept. 1221), and daughter of Alain de Dinan (or Vitré). They had no issue. In 1225 he was present at a meeting of Breton nobles in Nantes. In 1226 he and his wife, Gervaise, were granted a weekly market at Ringwood, Hampshire, to be held at the manor until the king came of age. In 1232 the Pope ordered the Bishop of Lisieux to ascertain what degree of affinity existed between Richard and his wife, Gervaise, and to report to the Pope. In 1233 he led the Barons in appealing to the king to dismiss his foreign advisors. In 1233 he was proclaimed a traitor and the office of Marshal was declared to be forfeited. He made an alliance with Llywelyn, and for some months successfully carried on warfare against the royal forces. In 1234 he proceeded to Ireland, where he took Limerick and recovered some of his castles. An abortive conference with the rebels at the Carragh of Kildare on 1 April was followed by a battle, in which he was wounded and captured. While recovering from his wounds, he was practically murdered by a treacherous surgeon. SIR RICHARD MARSHAL, Earl of Pembroke, died at Kilkenny Castle, co. Kilkenny, Ireland 16 April 1234, and was buried in the Church of the Franciscans at Kilkenny 17 April 1234.

His father in his lifetime gave him Sturminster, Dorset. His father or his brother gave him Goodrich Castle, Herefordshire and Bere, Dorset. In 1233 he supported his brother, Richard, against the king's foreign favorites and his lands were forfeited. In 1234 he was in Ireland with his brother Richard, who sent him away before the fatal Battle of Kildare, lest his family should be extirpated. He passed over to Wales with his brothers and was pardoned with them. In 1239 he was alienated from King Henry III, by the king's hostility to his brother, Gilbert Marshal. In 1240 he was sent into Wales with a large army to strengthen Cardigan Castle, and he took for his brother Gilbert lands appurtenant to the honour of Carmarthen. In June 1241 he took part in the tournament at which Gilbert Marshal was mortally wounded. The king at first refused to invest Walter in the Earldom of Pembroke as Gilbert's heir, because he had forbidden the tournament, but on 27 October the king relented and invested Walter with both the earldom and office of Marshal. He married 6 Jan. 1241/2 MARGARET (or MARGERY) DE QUINCY, widow of John de Lacy (or Lascy) (also known as John of Chester), Knt., Earl of Lincoln, hereditary Constable of Chester (died 22 July 1240) [see LACY 3], and daughter and heiress of Robert de Quincy, by Hawise, sue jure Countess of Lincoln, daughter of Hugh, Earl of Chester [see QUINCY 6.i for her ancestry]. She was born before 1217. They had no issue. He served as a captain in the king's army in Gascony and Poitou in 1242. In 1243 he surrendered his wife's castle of Bolingbroke, Lincolnshire and her mother's lands in Lincolnshire, which estates were subsequently restored to him and his wife, Margaret. In 1244 he was one of the laymen who was elected to consider the king's demand for a subsidy. He presented to the church of West Halton, Lincolnshire in 1242, and to a mediety of the church of Toynton St. Peter, Lincolnshire in 1245. SIR WALTER MARSHAL, Earl of Pembroke, died at Goodrich Castle, Herefordshire 24 Nov. 1245, and was buried at Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire. By judgments of the King's court, his widow, Margaret, recovered dower out of lands in Ireland held by Walter Marshal, and she received seisin of one-third of all of the Earl's lands and tenements in Ireland. In 1252 his widow, Margaret, and Richard de Wiltshire were granted a yearly fair at the manor of Chelbury, Lincolnshire. In 1262 an action of recaption was brought against Margaret, Countess of Lincoln, Joce de Stepping [her steward], and John de Lusby. In 1263 the king promised that her executors should have free administration of her goods. In the period, 1263-6, Master Walter of Stainsby filed a writ of attachment against Joce de Stepping, Steward of Margaret, Countess of Lincoln, which required Joce to answer for having distrained Master Walter to perform suit at the court of Lusby contrary to law. Margaret, Countess of Lincoln and Pembroke, died at Hampstead, Middlesex shortly before 30 March 1266, and was buried near her father in the Church of the Hospitallers, Clerkenwell, Middlesex, Baker Hist. & Antiqs. of Northampton 1 (1822-30): 563 (Beaumont-Quincy ped.).

He may have been the unnamed son of Hugh le Bigod who was held hostage by King John during the civil war of 1215-17, and whose capture perhaps occurred when Framlingham was surrendered to royalist forces in March 1216. He married at Alnwick, Northumberland 1 June 1225 ISABEL OF SCOTLAND, daughter of William the Lion, King of Scots, by Ermengarde, daughter of Richard de Beaumont, Vicomte of Beaumont [see SCOTLAND 4 for her ancestry].

He unsuccessfully disputed Simon de Montfort's claim to the Stewardship at the Coronation of Queen Eleanor. In 1242 he served the king in the early part of the disastrous campaign in Poitou. In 1245 he was chief of the English delegation to the Council of Lyons, and chief of the plenipotentiarires to treat of peace between the Emperor and the Pope. The same year he repudiated his wife, nominally on the ground of consanguinity. He was compelled by ecclesiastical sentence to take her back in 1253. The king confirmed his mother's commission of the marshalcy to him in 1246. In 1253 he witnessed a sentence of excommunication and anathema against violators of the liberties of the church and of the realm. In 1254 he brought over the king's message to the Grand Council for a supply of money. In 1257 he was member of an abortive embassy to France to demand certain rights. In 1258 he served as one of the ambassadors to attend the conference at Cambray. His wife, Isabel, appears to have been living in Gloucestershire in October 1263. Her exact date of death is unknown, but she was buried in the Black Friars, London. In 1270 he wrote the king asking him to allow Roger, son of his brother Hugh, to be his attorney as Marshal.

Prior to marriage, Ida was a mistress of King Henry II of England [see ENGLAND 4], by whom she was the mother of William Longespée, Knt., Earl of Salisbury [see LONGESPEE 5]. She married about Christmas 1181 ROGER LE BIGOD, Knt., 4th Earl of Norfolk, hereditary Steward of the Household, Privy Councillor, Keeper of Hertford Castle, 1191, Judge in the King's Court, 1195, 1196, 1199, 1202, Chief Judge in the King's Court, 1197, Warden of Romford Forest, 1200, son and heir of Hugh le Bigod, 3rd Earl of Norfolk, by his 1st wife, Juliane, daughter of Aubrey de Vere, of Great Addington and Drayton, Northamptonshire and Hedingham, Essex.

In the period, 1189-1202, he granted to the men of Acle, Norfolk that they shall have hereditarily their turbaries. In the period, 1189-1204, Reynold de Thorp granted him and his heirs six acres of land Hervey the baker held of his fee in Heveningham, Suffolk; in the same period Earl Roger granted the same property to Hervey the baker and his heirs for the free annual service of 12d. payable to the grantor and his heirs and liable in Id. in the pound towards scutage. In the period, 1189-1217, he granted Sibton Abbey 21 acres of land in Wrabton (in Yoxford) and Kelsale, Suffolk, in exchange for the same amount of the monks' demesne which Roger enclosed within his park at Kelsale, Suffolk.

In 1194 he was present at the great council held at Nottingham. At the re-coronation of King Richard I 17 April 1194, he assisted in bearing the canopy. He served as a justiciar, fines being levied before him in the fifth year of Richard's reign and from the seventh onwards. He continued to act as a judge in King John's reign. In 1198 he confirmed earlier gifts to Felixstone Priory. In the period, 1199-1202, he granted Colne Priory the church of Dovercourt and the chapel of Harwich. In the period, 1199-1221, he granted Hinlding Priory the chapel of All Saints, Hacheston, Suffolk. In the same period, he granted Carrow Nunnery two sheaves of the tithe of Halvergate, Norfolk.

The same year William Fitz Alan agreed to hold for the life of the earl half a fee in Theberton, Suffolk. In 1209 his half-brother, Hugh le Bigod, quitclaimed to him all his right to the lands of Acle, Earsham, Halvergate, Little Framingham, and South Walsham, Norfolk, and Settrington, Yorkshire, in exchange for £30 worth of lands. He was imprisoned for unknown causes in 1213. He accompanied the king to Poitou in 1214. The following year he joined the confederacy of the barons against the king. He was one of the twenty-five barons elected to guarantee the observance of Magna Carta, signed by King John 15 June 1215. In consequence he was among the barons excommunicated by Pope Innocent III 16 Dec. 1215. His lands were forfeited and cruelly ravaged by the king. After the accession of King Henry III, he returned to his allegiance, and had order for the restoration of his lands in September 1217.

In 1251 he witnessed the foundation charter of Marham Abbey, Norfolk, founded by his half-sister, Isabel de Warenne, Countess of Arundel. In 1257 he accompanied the king in his expedition into Wales. He was made Justiciar of England by the Barons in 1257. About the end of 1260, he resigned the position of justiciar, probably from dissatisfaction with the conduct of the Barons. In 1263 he joined the royal party. He was present on the king's side at the Battle of Lewes 14 May 1264, but fled from the field. SIR HUGH LE BIGOD died testate shortly before 7 May 1266.

He married probably before Lent 1207 MAUD MARSHAL, eldest daughter of William Marshal, Knt., 4th Earl of Pembroke (or Strigoil), hereditary Master Marshal, by Isabel, daughter of Richard Fitz Gilbert (nicknamed "Strongbow"), 2nd Earl of Pembroke (or Strigoil) [see MARSHAL 3 for her ancestry]. They had four sons, Roger, Knt. [6th Earl of Norfolk], Hugh, Knt., Ralph, Knt., and possibly William, and one daughter, Isabel. In 1215 he and his father joined the confederacy of the barons against the king. Both father and son were selected to be one of the twenty-five barons elected to guarantee the observance of Magna Carta, signed by King John 15 June 1215. In consequence, Hugh and his father were among the barons excommunicated by Pope Innocent III 16 Dec. 1215. He made homage for the Earldom of Norfolk 2 August 1221. In the period, 1221-5, he granted the homage and service of Hervey the baker and the tenement he held in Heveningharn, Suffolk to Sibton Abbey, Suffolk. In the same period, he granted the manor of Stockton, Norfolk to Hamo Lenveise. In the same period, he granted land in Mettingham, Suffolk to John Fitz Augustine. HUGH LE BIGOD, 5th Earl of Norfolk, died between 11 Feb. and 18 Feb. 1224/5. In May 1225 his widow, Maud, granted land in Stockton, Norfolk to her son, Ralph le Bigod. Maud married (2nd) before 13 October 1225 (as his 2nd wife) WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 6th Earl of Surrey [see WARENNE 8], son and heir of Hamelin, 5th Earl of Surrey, Vicomte of Touraine, by Isabel, daughter and heiress of William de Warenne, 3rd Earl of Surrey [see WARENNE 7 for his ancestry]. They had one son, John, Knt. [7th Earl of Surrey], and one daughter, Isabel. In 1226-7 Mary daughter of William de Newmarch, of Cateby, Yorkshire, granted to Maud Bigot, countess of Warenne and Norfolk, the hermitage of St. Margaret's, Cateby on the Don, with land in Eadrnunde croft, and common of pasture for the cattle of the hermitage, rendering yearly to the grantor at Easter white gloves. In 1227 he joined the Earl of Cornwall at Stamford in his revolt against the king, but at Christmas was with the king at York. In 1229 he was about the make a voyage on the king's service. He was heir in 1234 to his sister, Isabel de Warenne, widow of Gilbert de l'Aigle. In 1236 he acted as Butler at the Coronation of Queen Eleanor of Provence, in place of his son-in-law, Hugh, Earl of Arundel. In 1238 he was cited to appear before Robert Grosseteste, Bishop of Lincoln, because mass has been celebrated in the earl's hall at Grantham, Lincolnshire. SIR WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 6th Earl of Surrey, died testate in London 27 May 1240, and was buried in the priory church of Lewes, Sussex. In the period, 1240-6 his widow, Maud, granted a tenement in Thorne, Yorkshire to Richard de Otley her chaplain. In 1241 she granted Sir Adam de Newmarch and his heirs a water-course and ditch in Balne, Yorkshire from Flaxcleyker to the Dike to be 8 feet wide and 4 feet deep. In the period, 1241-5, she granted land in Stockton, Norfolk to her son, Ralph le Bigod. Maud was co-heiress in 1245 to her brother, Anselm Marshal, 9th Earl of Pembroke, by which she inherited the marshalcy of England and honour of Chepstow, Monmouthshire. In 1246-8 she confirmed the union of Kilkenny Abbey with Duiske Abbey. In 1246-8 she granted three silver marks of annual rent to St. George's Nunnery, Thetford, Norfolk.

He may have been the unnamed son of Hugh le Bigod who was held hostage by King John during the civil war of 1215-17, and whose capture perhaps occurred when Framlingham was surrendered to royalist forces in March 1216. He married at Alnwick, Northumberland 1 June 1225 ISABEL OF SCOTLAND, daughter of William the Lion, King of Scots, by Ermengarde, daughter of Richard de Beaumont, Vicomte of Beaumont [see SCOTLAND 4 for her ancestry]. They had no issue. While still under age, he entered into his inheritance in 1228. He was knighted by King Henry III at Gloucester in 1233. He unsuccessfully disputed Simon de Montfort's claim to the Stewardship at the Coronation of Queen Eleanor. In 1242 he served the king in the early part of the disastrous campaign in Poitou. In 1245 he was chief of the English delegation to the Council of Lyons, and chief of the plenipotentiarires to treat of peace between the Emperor and the Pope. The same year he repudiated his wife, nominally on the ground of consanguinity. He was compelled by ecclesiastical sentence to take her back in 1253. The king confirmed his mother's commission of the marshalcy to him in 1246. In 1253 he witnessed a sentence of excommunication and anathema against violators of the liberties of the church and of the realm. In 1254 he brought over the king's message to the Grand Council for a supply of money. In 1257 he was member of an abortive embassy to France to demand certain rights. In 1258 he served as one of the ambassadors to attend the conference at Cambray. His wife, Isabel, appears to have been living in Gloucestershire in October 1263. Her exact date of death is unknown, but she was buried in the Black Friars, London. In 1270 he wrote the king asking him to allow Roger, son of his brother Hugh, to be his attorney as Marshal.

6099	RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): “HUGH LE DESPENSER, Knt., styled "the younger," of Hanley Castle, Worcestershire, King's Chamberlain, Constable of Odiham Castle, Keeper of the castle and town of Dryslwyn, and Cantref Mawr, Carmarthenshire, Keeper of the Castle and town of Portchester, Keeper of the Castle, town and barton of Bristol, Keeper of the Castles, manor, and lands of Brecknock, Hay, Cantref Selyf, etc., Breconshire, and Huntington, Herefordshire, son and heir. He married at Westminster shortly after 14 June 1306 ELEANOR DE CLARE, daughter of Gilbert de Clare, Knt., Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, by his 2nd wife, Joan of Acre, daughter of Edward I, King of England [see CLARE 8 for her ancestry]. She was born at Caerphilly, Glamorgan shortly before 23 Nov. 1292 (date of her mother's churching). They had five sons, Hugh, Knt. [3rd Lord le Despenser], Edward, Knt., Gilbert, Knt., John, and Philip, and five daughters, Isabel, Joan (nun at Shaftesbury Abbey), Eleanor (nun at Sempringham Priory), Margaret (nun at Whatton Priory), and Elizabeth. In 1310 he purchased the manor of Winstone, Gloucestershire from Geoffrey de Pulham. He presented to the church of Winstone, Gloucestershire in 1311. He accompanied the King to Pontoise in 1313. His wife, Eleanor, was co-heiress in 1314 to her brother, Gilbert de Clare, Knt., Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, by which she inherited the lordship of Glamorgan in Wales, including the castles of Llanblethian, Kenfeg, Neath, Llantrisant, Caerphilly, and Whitchurch, and the manor of Stanford in the Vale, Berkshire. He was summoned to Parliament from 29 July 1314 to 10 October 1325, by writs directed Hugoni le Deipenser juniori. From Nov. 1317 his influence at court rapidly increased, and, by the end of the following year, he won a lasting ascendancy over the king's mind. In 1320-1 John de Cromwell, Knt., Lord Cromwell, and his wife, Idoine, settled the manors of Amersham, Buckland, and Singleborough (in Great Horwood), Buckinghamshire, Moulton, Potterspury, and Yardley, Northamptonshire, Perlethorpe, Nottinghamshire, Winderton (in Brailes), Warwickshire, West Winterslow, Wiltshire, etc. on themselves for the life of Idoine, with successive remainders to Hugh le Despenser, Knt., the younger and Hugh le Despenser, Knt. the elder for life, and to Edward son of Hugh le Despenser, Knt the younger and his heirs. In 1320 the king seized the lordship of Gower in Wales, as a means of conferring it on him. The dispute over this seizure united a powerful group of Welsh marcher lords in a coalition against Hugh; moreover, his rule in Glamorgan was intensely unpopular with the Welsh. Civil war broke out May 4, 1321, and the lordship of Glamorgan was quickly overrun and devastated. Hugh and his father were subsequently banished by Parliament 14 August 1321. The royalist counter-offensive against the baronial opposition began in October 1321. Following the royalist victory at the Battle of Boroughbridge 16 March 1321/2, Parliament in May 1322 reversed the sentences on the Despensers, who were allowed to return from exile. Hugh recovered the lordships of Glamorgan and Gower. From 1322 to 1326 he directed England's internal and foreign policy. By fraud and violence, he accumulated enormous possessions in both England and Wales. The revolution of 1326 was the inevitable result of the misgovernment of the Despensers. In Sept. 1326 Queen Isabel (wife of King Edward II) and Roger de Mortimer landed at Orwell, Suffolk, with a force of 700 mercenaries hired from the Count of Hainault. In a matter of weeks, the government of the Despensers collapsed. On October 2, King Edward II left London and fled to south Wales, accompanied by Hugh the younger. They were captured near Llantrisant, Glamorgan 16 Nov. 1326. SIR HUGH LE DESPENSER, 2nd Lord le Despenser, was taken to Hereford, and executed there 24 Nov. 1326. In 1330 his bones were collected and buried at Tewkesbury Abbey, Gloucestershire. His widow, Eleanor, was treated with remarkable leniency and her inheritance was restored to her 22 April 1328. Shortly before 26 Jan. 1328/9, she was abducted from Hanley Castle, Worcestershire and married without royal license WILLIAM LA ZOUCHE MORTIMER,* Knt., 1st Lord Zouche of Richard's Castle, of Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire, Fulboum and Swavesey, Cambridgeshire, and Nutboum (in Pulborough) and Treve (or River) (in Tillington), Sussex, Justice in Eyre for forest pleas in Essex, Joint Keeper of Caerphilly Castle, Keeper of Glamorgan and Morganno, Chamberlain of Cardiff, Keeper of the Tower of London, Justice of the Forest south of Trent, 1328, and, in right of his 1st wife, of Walthamstow, Essex, Flamstead, Hertfordshire, Wyke or Rumboldswyke (in Rurnboldswyke), Sussex, Cherhill, Newton Tony, and Stratford Tony, Wiltshire, Elmley Lovett, Worcestershire, etc., younger son of Robert de Mortimer, of Richard's Castle and Puddlestone, Herefordshire, Burford, Milson, and Tilsop (in Burford), Shropshire, by Joyce, daughter of William la Zouche [see RICHARD'S CASTLE 3 for his ancestry] [see BEAUCHAMP 10 for the details of the remaining portion of their lives]. They had two sons, Hugh, Knt., and William (clerk). Sir William la Zouche Mortimer, 1st Lord Zouche of Richard's Castle, died 28 Feb. 1336/7, and was buried at Tewkesbury Abbey, Gloucestershire. His widow, Eleanor, died testate 30 June 1337.

He was heir in 1275 to his cousin, John le Despenser, by which he inherited the manor of Arnesby, Leicestershire. A letter of William de Valence to John de Kirkby indicates that the Queen exacted 1,000 marks from Hugh because of his marriage. In Jan. 1285 the king took the manor of Bollington, Cheshire because Hugh took emends of ale without warrant. In 1286 and again in 1287, he appointed attorneys, he then going beyond seas. He released all right to his lands and tenements in Soham, Cambridgeshire and Bollington in Macclesfield, Cheshire to the king in 1286-7. He was with the king in Gascony in 1287. In 1289 he was going beyond seas with Roger le Bigod, Earl of Norfolk.

He was appointed an envoy to treat with the King of the Romans in 1294. He was summoned to Parliament from 24 June 1295 to 14 March 1321/2, by writs directed Hugoni le Despenser, whereby he is held to have become Lord Despenser. In 1295 he was going beyond seas on the king's service. The following year he was going beyond seas on an embassy for the king. In 1297 he was granted 20 oaks fit for timber by the king. The same year he took part in the expedition to Flanders. In 1297 he demised the manor of Arnesby, Leicestershire to two tenants for a term of seven years. In 1298 Maud le Barber of Garscherch testified in London court that Saer le Barber said that Sir Hugh le Despenser "kept more robbers with him than any man in England." In 1299 he was granted the manors of Chelworth and Somerford, Wiltshire, together with the bailiwick of the Forest of Braydon, by his kinsman, Robert de Kaynes (or Kaignes). He was present at the Siege of Caerlaverock in 1300. In 1300 he was going to the court of Rome on the king's special affairs. In 1301 Ralph Pipard granted him the manor of Great Haseley, Oxfordshire.

In 1305 he was sent as Joint Ambassador to Pope Clement V at Lyons, where he obtained a bull absolving the king from the oaths which he had taken to his people. In Feb. 1306 Hugh received a papal indult to have a portable altar. His wife, Isabel, died shortly before 30 May 1306. At the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308, he carried part of the royal insignia. In the quarrel about Peter de Gavaston in 1308, Hugh alone sided with the king against the barons. He was regarded as a deserter from the common cause, and the parliament which met at Northampton procured his dismissal from the king's council. His disgrace was not of long duration; he received the castles of Devizes and Marlborough, and became the chief adviser of the king. On the death of Gavaston in 1312, he became the chief man of the court party, and encouraged the king to form plans of revenge against the barons. He was present at the Battle of Bannockburn 24 June 1314, and accompanied the king in his flight to Dunbar, and thence by sea to Berwick. About this time his son, Sir Hugh le Despenser, joined the king's side. He was appointed Ambassador to Pope John XXII in 1319, and Joint Ambassador to the Pope in 1320. In May and June 1321 the barons of the Welsh Marches and their adherents ravaged the lands of the younger Despenser in Wales and those of the elder throughout the country. In August of that year both Despensers were accused in Parliament, chiefly on account of the son's misconduct, of many misdeeds, including appropriating royal power to themselves, counselling the King evilly, and replacing good ministers by bad ones. They were then disinherited and exiled from the realm. The elder Hugh accordingly retired to the Continent. The sentence on the Despensers was pronounced unlawful at a provincial council of the clergy about 1 Jan. 1321/2. In March following, the elder Hugh accompanied the King against the contrariants, and was present at the judgment on Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. The proceedings against the Despensers were annulled and cancelled, and his lands restored 7 May 1322. He was created Earl of Winchester 10 May 1322, and granted £20 yearly from the issues of Hampshire, together with the Castle and manor of Brimpsfield, Gloucestershire, and the manors of Badgeworth and Syde, Gloucestershire, Ashton Giffard, Codford St. Peter, Sherrington, and Stapleford, Wiltshire (formerly belonging to John Giffard), as well as other lands formerly belonging to Thomas Mauduit, Henry le Tyeys, Warin de Lisle, and John de Kyngeston. The queen hated the Despensers, and when some difficulty arose in France, she gladly left the kingdom on an embassy to her brother, King Charles IV of France. When the queen landed in England with an armed force in Sept. 1326, she put out a proclamation against the Despensers. On the king's flight to Wales in October 1326, Earl Hugh was dispatched to defend Bristol, which, however, he at once surrendered on the arrival of the Queen. The next day, 27 October 1326, SIR HUGH LE DESPENSER, Earl of Winchester, was tried - without being allowed to speak in his own defence - condemned to death as a traitor, and hanged on the common gallows, all his honours forfeited. His head was sent to Winchester. Bridges Hist. & Antiqs. of Northamptonshire 1 (1791): 325. Nichols Hist. & Antiqs. of Leicester 3(1) (1800): 136-137.

He married (1st) after 4 March 1291 (date of letter) and before 11 May 1297 (date of papal dispensation to remain in marriage, they being related in the 4th degree of kindred) ISABEL DE CLARE, daughter of Gilbert de Clare, Knt., 6th Earl of Gloucester, 6th Earl of Hertford, by his 1st wife, Alice, daughter of Hugues XI le Brun (otherwise de Lusigian), Count of La Marche and Angoulême, seigneur of Lusignan in Poitou (uterine brother of Henry III, King of England) [see CLARE 8 for her ancestry]. She was born 10 March 1262/3. They had no issue. He fought in the king's division at the Battle of Falkirk 22 July 1298, where he distinguished himself for bravery. In consequence of his services, the same year he was granted lands in Scotland belonging to Mowbray, Strivelyn, and Chartres. He presented to the churches of Hanslope, Buckinghamshire, 1299, Acton Beauchamp, Worcestershire, 1309, Pillerton, Warwickshire, 1310, Notgrove, Gloucestershire, 1313, and Naunton Beauchamp, Worcestershire, 1313, and to the chapel of Elmley Castle, Worcestershire, 1309, 1313. He took part in the Siege of Caerlaverock Castle in 1300. He signed the Barons' letter to Pope Boniface VIII in 1301 as Com' Warr'. Guy and his wife, Isabel, were separated in or before 1302, and subsequently divorced; she married (2nd) about 1316 MAURICE DE BERKELEY, Knt., 2nd Lord Berkeley [see BERKELEY 6 for further details of her life]. Guy served under Edward, Prince of Wales, at the Siege of Stirling Castle in 1304. For his good services, he was granted Barnard Castle, co. Durham in 1307. He attended King Edward I on his last campaign and was present at his death 7 July 1307. Sometime in the period, 1307-11, Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, Guy de Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick, and other earls and barons, while assembled in the Parliament in London, wrote to the Pope praying for the canonization of Thomas de Cantelowe, late Bishop of Hereford. He was present at the Coronation of King Edward II in 1308, where he carried one of the Swords of State. He was prominent in procuring the banishment of Peter de Gavaston, Earl of Cornwall in 1308, and alone opposed his recall in 1309. Guy married (2nd) shortly before 28 Feb. 1309/10 ALICE DE TONY, widow of Thomas de Leyboume (or Leyburne), Knt., of Leybourne, Kent (died shortly before 30 May 1307), and daughter of Ralph de Tony, Knt., of Flamstead, Hertfordshire, Walthamstow, Essex, Painscastle, Radnorshire, etc., by his wife, Mary [see TONY 9 for her ancestry]. She was born about 1282-5 (aged 24 or 27 in 1309). They had two sons, Thomas, K.G. [11th Earl of Warwick), and John [Lord Beauchamp], and five daughters, Maud, Emma (wife of Roland de Oddingseles), Isabel (wife of John de Clinton), Elizabeth, and Lucy (wife of Roger de Napton). Alice was heiress in 1309 to her brother, Robert de Tony, Knt., Lord Tony, by which she inherited extensive estates throughout England, including the manors of Flamstead, Hertfordshire, Brinkley, Kirding, Long Stanton, and Whittlesford, Cambridgeshire, Carnanton (in Mawgan), Cornwall, Walthamstow, Essex, Necton, Little Cressingham, and Saham Toney, Norfolk, Garsington, Oxfordshire, East Bergholt, Suffolk, Newton Tony and Stratford Tony, Wiltshire, Elmley Lovett, Worcestershire, etc. He presented to the church of Pillerton, Warwickshire in 1310. He was one of the Lords Ordainers of Reform in 1310. In June 1312 he seized Gavaston at Deddington, Oxfordshire, and carried him off to Warwick Castle. On the Earl of Lancaster's arrival, Gavaston was handed over to Lancaster and executed without trial 19 June 1312. He presented to the churches of Notgrove, Gloucestershire and Naunton Beauchamp, Worcestershire, and to the chapel and chantry of Elmley Castle, Worcestershire in 1313. Although pardoned for his participation in the death of Gavaston in 1313, Guy and his confederate Earls refused to serve in the Bannockburn campaign the following year. SIR GUY DE BEAUCHAMP, 10th Earl of Warwick, died at Warwick Castle 12 August 1315, and was buried at Bordesley Abbey, Warwickshire. He left a will dated 25 July 1315. His widow, Alice, married (3rd) by license dated 26 October 1316 (as his 1st wife) WILLIAM LA ZOUCHE MORTIMER (formerly DE MORTIMER), Knt., of Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire, Fulbourn and Swavesey, Cambridgeshire, and Nutbourn (in Pulborough) and Treve (or River) (in Tillington), Sussex, Justice in Eyre for forest pleas in Essex, Joint Keeper of Caerphilly Castle, Keeper of Glamorgan and Morganno, Chamberlain of Cardiff, Keeper of the Tower of London, Justice of the Forest south of Trent, 1328, and, in right of his 1st wife, of Walthamstow, Essex, Flamstead, Hertfordshire, Wyke or Rumboldswyke (in Rumboldswyke), Sussex, Cherhill, Newton Tony, and Stratford Tony, Wiltshire, Elmley Lovett, Worcestershire, etc., younger son of Robert de Mortimer, of Richard's Castle and Puddlestone, Herefordshire, Burford, Milson, and Tilsop (in Burford), Shropshire, etc., by Joyce, daughter of William la Zouche [see RICHARD'S CASTLE 3 for his ancestry]. They had four sons, Ralph, Alan [2nd Lord Zouche], Robert, and Philip, and one daughter, Joyce. He apparently fought at the Battle of Falkirk in 1298. In 1304 his kinsman, Alan la Zouche, Knt., Lord Zouche [see CHARLTON 5], settled the reversion of the manors of Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire, Fulbourn and Swavesey, Cambridgeshire, and Nutbourne (in Pulborough) and Treve (or River) (in Tillington), Sussex on him, on whose death in 1314, he entered into these estates. In 1313 William was pardoned for his participation in the death of Peter de Gavaston. He was summoned for service against the Scots, 1315-35, in Gascony, 1324-5, and in Ireland, 1332. In 1322-3 John Botetourt and his wife, Maud, conveyed to William and his wife, Alice, all their right in the manor of Fulbourn, Cambridgeshire. William was summoned to Parliament from 26 Dec. 1323 to 14 Jan. 1336/7, by writs directed variously Villelmo la Zousbe, Willelmo la Zouche de Castro Ricardi (or de Mortuo Mari, de Assheby, de Mortimer), whereby he is held to have become Lord Zouche. His wife, Alice, died shortly before 8 Jan. 1324/5. As a supporter of Queen Isabel, he was present at the extraordinary Council held at Bristol in October 1326, when Prince Edward was chosen as Keeper of the Realm. In Nov. 1326 he was sent with the Earl of Lancaster into Wales to pursue and capture Edward II. William married (2nd) about 26 Jan. 1328/9 (when he abducted her from Hanley Castle, Worcestershire) ELEANOR DE CLARE, widow of Hugh le Despenser ("the younger"), Knt., 2nd Lord le Despenser (hanged 24 Nov. 1326) [see DESPENSER 11], and daughter of Gilbert de Clare, Knt., Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, by his 2nd wife, Joan of Acre, daughter of Edward I, King of England [see CLARE 8 for her ancestry]. She was born at Caerphilly, Glamorgan shortly before 23 Nov. 1292 (date of her mother's churching), and was co-heiress in 1314 to her brother, Gilbert de Clare, Knt., Earl of Gloucester and Hertford. They had two sons, Hugh, Knt., and William (clerk). Soon after their marriage, orders were issued for their arrest 5 Feb. 1328/9 by Roger de Mortimer, acting in the king's name. Eleanor was subsequently imprisoned in the Tower of London and then in Devizes Castle. In Dec. 1329 she was compelled by the King to surrender the lordships of Glamorgan and Morgannwg, and the manors of Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, and Hanley, Worcestershire, until they should have paid an impossible fine of £50,000. They received a pardon 22 Feb. 1329/30. In Jan. 1330/1 she recovered her lands for a reduced fine of £5,000, which sum was never paid in full during her lifetime. In 1332 he had a protection going beyond seas with the Princess Eleanor for her marriage to Renaud, Count of Guelders, in the Low Countries. The same year he had license from the Bishop of Lincoln to have a chapel in his manor-house at Flamstead, Hertfordshire. In 1332 Anthony Citroun and Nicholas de Salvo acknowledged that they owed William and his wife, Eleanor, a debt of £20,000. In 1336 William la Zouche Mortimer, his step-son, Hugh le Despenser, Knt., and four others acknowledged that they owed debts of £266 to Asselmo Symonete, and £1600 to Gwido de La Chouche, merchants of Lucca, which they had not paid. SIR WILLIAM LA ZOUCHE MORTIMER, 1st Lord Zouche of Richard's Castle, died 28 Feb. 1336/7, and was buried in Tewkesbury Abbey, Gloucestershire. His widow, Eleanor, died testate 30 June 1337.

6100	RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): “HUGH, 6th Earl of Chester, hereditary Vicomte of Avranches in Normandy, seigneur of Saint Sever and Briquessart, son and heir, born about 1141 (of age in 1162). He is sometimes called Hugh of Cyfeiliog, because, according to a late writer, he was born in that district of Wales. According to the chronicler, John of Hexham, it was agreed at Carlisle in 1150 that a son of Ranulph, Earl of Chester, should marry one of the daughters of Henry, son of the king of Scotland. The son of Earl Ranulph was presumably his eldest son, Hugh. The projected marriage never took place. In the period, 1154-7, Earl Hugh and his mother, Countess Maud, gave Styvechale (south of Coventry) to Walter, Bishop of Chester, and his successors for the absolution of Hugh's father, Lord Earl Ranulph, and the redemption of his soul and that of his ancestors. Sometime in the period, 1155- 63, the king ordered Earl Hugh and his mother, Countess Maud, to give to the Abbot and monks of Gloucester the rents which Hugh's father, Earl Ranulph, gave them in the mills of Oldney and Tadwell. He was present in 1163 at Dover for King Henry II's renewal of the Flemish money fief, and also attended the Council of Clarendon in January 1164. Sometime in the period, 1166-87, he confirmed the former grant made to Saint-Etienne Abbey, Caen by Ranulph, Vicomte of Bayeux, his ancestor, of all the land the said Ranulph possessed at Bretteville-l'Orgueilleuse. He married in 1169 BERTRADE DE MONTFORT, daughter of Simon de Montfort, Count of Evreux, seigneur of Montfort-l'Amaury, by his wife, Maud. She was born about 1156 (aged 29 in 1185). They had one son, Ranulph, Knt. [Earl of Chester and Lincoln], and five daughters, Maud, Mabel, Agnes, Hawise, and (wife of Llywelyn ap Iorwerth, Prince of North Wales). By an unknown mistress (or mistresses), he also had two illegitimate sons, William (or Pain) (of Milton), and Roger, and one illegitimate daughter, Amice. Hugh joined the rebellion of King Henry II's sons in 1173. He was captured by King Henry II at Dol in August 1173. In 1174 he was deprived of his lands for rebellion. He was subsequently regranted his honours and lands at the Council of Northampton in 1177. In March 1178 he witnessed King Henry II's award in the dispute between Alfonso IX, King of Castile, and Sancho V, King of Navarre. During his lifetime, he granted some lands in the Wirral to the Abbey of St. Werburgh, Chester, and made other special gifts to Stanlow Priory, St Mary's, Coventry, and the nuns of Buffington and Greenfield priories. He also confirmed his mother's grants to her foundation of Augustinian canons at Calke, Derbyshire, and those of his father to his convent of the Benedictine nuns of St Mary's, Chester. In 1171 he confirmed the grants of his father to the Abbey of St. Stephen in the diocese of Bayeux. He likewise granted the church of Belchford, Lincolnshire to Trentham Priory, and the church of Combe, Gloucestershire to the Abbey of Bordesley, Warwickshire. HUGH, Earl of Chester, died at Leek, Staffordshire 30 June 1181, and was buried next to his father in the chapter house of St Werburgh's, Chester. Sometime in the period, 1188-99, his widow, Bertrade, witnessed a charter of her son, Ranulph, Earl of Chester. In the period, 1190-1200, she reached agreement with the abbot and convent of Troarn in Normandy regarding the construction of a mill and fishpond on the boundary between her wood and theirs. Sometime before 1194-1203, she exchanged lands with the canons of Repton. Sometime in the period, 1200-10, she granted to Ralph Carbonel, of Halton, Lincolnshire, for his homage and service a half a knight's fee which he held of the said countess in Halton. In 1223 Richard Duket and Simon de Sees brought a plea of novel disseisin against her touching a tenement in Harmston, Lincolnshire. In 1226 she presented to the church of Waddington, Lincolnshire. In 1227 she arraigned an assize of last presentation to the church of Waddington, Lincolnshire against the abbot of St. Sever. Bertrade, Countess of Chester, died in 1227, after 31 March.

He was knighted by the king at Caen 1 Jan. 1187/8. He married (1st) 3 Feb. 1187/8 (or 1189) CONSTANCE OF BRITTANY [see BRITTANY 6], widow of Geoffrey of England, Duke of Brittany, Earl of Richmond (killed in a tournament at Paris 19 August 1186) [see ENGLAND 4.v], and daughter and heiress of Conan IV le Petit, Duke of Brittany, Earl of Richmond, by Margaret, daughter of Henry of Scotland, Earl of Northumberland [see BRITTANY 5 for her ancestry]. She was born about 1162. They had no issue. In 1194 he was commander of the forces for King Richard I. He took part in the second Coronation of King Richard I, which was solemnised in Winchester Cathedral 17 April 1194. In 1196 Ranulph captured his wife, Constance, en route to her finalizing negotiations with King Richard I and confined her at Benvron for at least a year. Soon after her release, she sought the annulment of their marriage, which was granted in 1199, presumably on grounds on consanguinity; she subsequently married (3rd) before October 1199 (as his 1st wife) GUY DE THOUARS, in right of his 1st wife, Count (or Duke) of Brittany, Earl of Richmond [see BRITTANY 6]. Constance died testate at Nantes 4 (or 5) Sept. 1201. Ranulph married (2nd) before 7 October 1200 CLEMENCE DE FOUGERES, widow of Main de Vitre (or Dinan) (died 1198), seigneur of Dinan, and daughter of Guillaume de Fougères, seigneur of Fougères, by Agatha, daughter of Guillaume du Hommet, Constable of Normandy [see FOUGERES 5 for her ancestry]. Her maritagium included land in the valley of Mortain. They had no issue. He was engaged in warfare with the Welsh from 1209 to 1214. He was faithful to King John against the rebellious Barons. He was one of the executors of King John who died 19 October 1216; and one of most zealous supporters of the young king, Henry III. In 1217, as Joint Commander of the royal army, he contributed to the defeat of the rebels under the Count of Perche. He was created Earl of Lincoln 23 May 1217. He went on crusade to the Holy Land in May 1218, and distinguished himself at the Siege of Damietta. He returned to England in August 1220. In 1223 he was required to surrender his castles. In 1229 he opposed in Parliament the grant of a tenth to the Pope, and forbade its collection in his own domain. In 1229 Earl Ranulph granted tithes in Wilsford, Wiltshire, formerly held of the Earl of Lincoln, to Roger, Succentor of Salisbury. He served as Chief Commander of the royal troops in Brittany, 1230-1, and in June 1231 was a Joint Commissioner to treat with France. Sometime between April 1231 and his death, he resigned the earldom of Lincoln to his sister, Hawise de Quincy. RANULPH, Earl of Chester, died at Wallingford 28 October 1232, and was buried at St. Werburg's, Chester, his heart being interred at Dieulacres Abbey. His widow, Clemence, died in 1252. Sandford Gen.
