They had one son, Baldwin, and two daughters, Mary and Joan. Sometime before 1188 he granted land and a house in Yarmouth, Hampshire to William Maskerel to make a hospital. He was heir in 1193 to his nephew, Richard de Reviers, 4th Earl of Devon. In the period, c.1193-1208, he confirmed earlier gifts of the advowsons of the churches of llsington, Stokeinteignhead, and Ugborough, Devon to Plympton Priory. He also either gave or confirmed to Plympton Priory the chapel of St. Mary in his castle at Plympton, Devon. In 1194 King Richard I granted him the tertius denarius of Devon as his father Baldwin and predecessor Richard had held it. He attended the second coronation of King Richard I in 1194, where he was one of four nobles who supported the silken canopy over the king. His wife, Mabel, was living 1 May 1204. In 1206 he sued Robert, Prior of Plympton regarding the advowson of the church of Exminster, Devon. WILLIAM DE VERNON, 5th Earl of Devon, died 10 Sept. 1217.
