“HUGH DE GOURNAY, seigneur of Gournay-en-Brie, also of Bledlow and Wendover, Buckinghamshire, Houghton, Bedfordshire, Gainer and Cantley, Norfolk, Mapledurham, Oxfordshire, etc., benefactor of Bellosane, Clairruissel and Fécamp Abbeys and the Priory of St. Laurent en Lions, Normandy, and Missenden Abbey, Buckinghamshire, younger but eldest surviving son and heir by his father's 2nd marriage, born say 1150-55 (adult by 1180). He married before 1193 JULIANE DE DAMMARTIN, daughter of Aubrey (or Alberic) II, Count of Dammartin, by Mahaut (or Mathilde), daughter of Renaud II, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis [see DAMMARTIN 3 for her ancestry]. They had two sons, Gerard and Hugh, and one daughter, Millicent. In 1190 he was granted the manor of Houghton Regis, Bedfordshire. In 1191 he accompanied King Richard I on the 3rd Crusade. At the capture of Acre, he commanded 100 knights. In 1193, he swung over temporarily to King Philip's side and his manors of Houghton and Bledlow were taken. In 1184 Louis de Gournay, on Hugh's behalf, was pardoned £40 by the king on the Norman Pipe Rolls. In 1198 he granted the five churches of Caistor [on Sea] and the church of Cantley to the collegiate church of St. Hildevert, Gournay. The same year he made an exchange with the monks of Bec Hellouin in Normandy, by which the manor of Bledlow, Buckinghamshire passed to that alien abbey. In 1202 the manor of Wendover, Buckinghamshire was re-granted to him. In 1202 he joined the French side and Wendover was granted to Ralph de Tilley. In 1205 he gave Bucilly Abbey with the consent of his wife and children 5 muids of white wine and 20 sols laonnais which he had of 100 cens annually at Nouvion-le-Comte at la Saint-Remy. In 1206 he was pardoned at the instance of Otto the Emperor, and permitted to return to England. Sometime in the period, c.1206-14, he granted Missenden Abbey various tracts of land, including land in Peterley, Pirenor, and Hughenden. In 1210 he paid a fine of 700 marks that he might hold Wendover, Buckinghamshire, without being disseised thereof, unless by judgment in the king's courts. He was Sheriff of Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire in 1214, being then "weighed down with sickness." HUGH DE GOURNAY died 25 October 1214 at Rouen in Normandy "after donning the garb of a Templar and discarding it by apostasy."
