She married (1st) WILLIAM D'AUBENEY (or D'AUBENY, DE ALBENEY), of Belvoir, Leicestershire, son and heir of William d'Aubeney, of Belvoir, Leicestershire, by Cecily, daughter of Roger Bigod. She had the manor of Cratfield, Suffolk in free marriage. They had one son, William, and one daughter, Maud. At an unknown date, he granted Belvoir Priory, Leicestershire and its monks "omnimodas sectas et adventus curiarum" of all their men and tenants. He and his wife, Maud, gave the same Priory the advowson of the church of Cratfield, Suffolk. She gave one-third of the manor of Cratfield, Suffolk to the Priory of St. Neot, Cambridgeshire.

About 1160 he confirmed the gifts of his parents to Worksop Priory, Nottinghamshire, and added valuable grants of his own, including half the church of Clarborough; two bovates of land in Hardwick Grange, near Clumber, the whole site of the town of Worksop near the church, enclosed by a great ditch as far as Bracebridge meadow; a mill, mansion, and Buselin's meadow; a mill at Manton; and all Sloswick. He further granted to the canons the privileges of feeding as many pigs as they possessed in Rumwood, and of having two wagons for the collecting of all the dry wood they required in the park of Worksop. In 1161 he had a dispute with Ecclesfield Priory, Yorkshire, as to the extent of their respective rights and territories. He held 5 knights' fees of William Paynel in 1166.
