      1. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
      "GILBERT FITZ GILBERT (nicknamed Strongbow), 2nd son, born probably about 1100. He married ISABEL OF MEULAN, former mistress of King Henry I [see ENGLAND 2], and daughter of Robert of Meulan (or de Beaumont), Count of Meulan, by Isabel (or Elizabeth), daughter of Hugues “le Grand,” Count of Crépy [see VERMANDOIS 5 for her ancestry]. They had one son, Richard [2nd Earl of Pembroke], and one daughter, Basilia. He consented to a gift of his mother, Alice, to Thorney Abbey dated c.1136-38. He was heir c.1137-38 to his uncle, Walter Fitz Richard, by which he inherited the barony of Chepstow, Monmouthshire and the manor of Hinxworth, Hertfordshire. He was created Earl of Pembroke by King Stephen in 1138. Sometime in the period, 1138-48, he granted the church of St. Mary, Southwark land in Great Parndon, Essex, together with the chapel and tithe of Torp [?Southorpe in Southchurch, Essex] and the tithe of Coptfold (in Margaretting), Essex, for the canons to build a hospice. About 1147-8 he issued a charter by which he confirmed the earlier grant by Roger Fitz Humphrey to the Templars of land in Inglewood (in Kintbury), Berkshire. GILBERT FITZ GILBERT, 1st Earl of Pembroke, died 6 Jan. 1147/8. His widow, Isabel, married (2nd) RALPH BLUET, of Silchester, Hampshire and Lacock, Wiltshire. They had three sons, Ralph, Knt., Walter, and William. RALPH BLUET was living in 1167. Isabel was a benefactor of the nuns of Saint-Saens, to whom she gave half her mill of Eskekeville. This gift was subsequently confirmed c.1177 by King Henry II of England. She confirmed the gift of her son, Earl Richard, to Foucarmont Abbey, which act was confirmed by King Henry II of England in the period, 1185-89. Isabel was allegedly living in 1172.

      Children of Isabel of Meulan, by Ralph Bluet:
      1. RALPH BLUET (or BLOET), Knt., of Silchester, Hampshire, Daglingworth, Gloucestershire, and Lackham, Wiltshire, son and heir, born say 1150 (of age in 1174-5).* He married say 1177 (possibly as his 2nd wife) NEST OF WALES, former mistress of King Henry II [see ENGLAND 4], and daughter of Iorwerth ab Owain, lord of Caerleon, Monmouthshire, by Angharad, daughter of Uchdrud, Bishop of Llandaff. They had at least three sons, Ralph, William, Knt., and Roland (killed in Ireland in 1217), and at least two daughters, Alda (wife of Amaury le Despenser) and Emma [Abbess of Godstow]. About 1170 Ralph and his younger brother, Walter Bluet, together with their mother, Countess Isabel, witnessed a Welsh charter of his older half-brother, Richard Fitz Gilbert, Earl of Pembroke. In the period, 1174-9, he reached agreement with his neighbor, William Fitz Patrick, Earl of Salisbury regarding the church of Lacock, Wiltshire, which was in their common fee. About 1177 he gave the church of Daglingworth, Gloucestershire to Godstow Abbey, Oxfordshire, which gift was afterwards confirmed by his brother, Walter, and later by their nephew, William. He and his younger brother, William, were joint keepers of the Castle and honour of Striguil from 1185-8. In the period, 1189-94, he witnessed a charter of William Marshal, afterwards Earl of Pembroke [husband of his niece, Isabel de Clare] to Cat tale] Priory. He also witnessed an undated charter of Geoffrey Fitz Robert (husband of his half-sister, Basilia de Clare) to Duiske Abbey. SIR RALPH BLUET died about c.1196-9. About 1196-9 his widow, Nest, their son, Ralph, and his brothers granted the monastery rmonasteriuml of Duntesborne, Gloucestershire to Godstow Abbey, together with her daughter, presumably the Emma Bluet, who was later elected Abbess of Godstow in 1248. In 1200 Nest sued Robert Bluet in a plea regarding a half of hide of land in Daglingworth, Gloucestershire. In 1201 she sued her brother, Hywel de Caerleon, regarding the town of Caerleon, Monmouthshire. The same year she sued William de Brewes in a plea of land in Herefordshire. Arch.

      (* Note: Ralph Bluet's identification as the son of Isabel of Meulan, Countess of Pembroke is dependant of several pieces of evidence, chief among them being a previously overlooked charter issued by Ralph Bluet's younger brother, William Bluet, dated c.1168-89, in which William styled himself "brother of Earl Richard" (i.e., half- brother of Richard Fitz Gilbert (de Clare), Earl of Pembroke) [see Madox Formulare Anglicanum (1702): 182; National Archives, E 327/2981. The charter was issued at the court of William Bluet's cousin, Robert de Bréteuil, 2nd Earl of Leicester. About 1170 Ralph Bluet and another brother, Walter Bluet, together with their mother, Countess Isabel, witnessed a charter of Ralph and Walter's half-brother, Richard Fitz Gilbert, Earl of Pembroke [see Owen Cat. MSS ReZ Vales in the British Museum 4 (Cymmrodorion Rec. Ser. 4) (1922): 660-6651.

[see Dugdale Monasticon Anglicanum 5 (1825): 266].
      ii. WILLIAM BLUET, younger son. Either he or a near relation of the same name witnessed a charter dated 1205-19 to Bradenstoke Priory granted by William le Gras, nephew of William Marshal, Earl of Pembroke.

      i. MORGAN FITZ ROY, clerk. He was presumably born in 1176, the year following a great council held at Gloucester 29 June 1175, for the settling of the peace of South Wales and the borders, which council was attended by both King Henry II of England and Morgan's mother's father. Morgan occurs once as Archdeacon of Richmond, but without date. He was appointed Provost of Beverley by his half-brother, Geoffrey, Archbishop of York in 1201, which appointment was appealed by Simon, Dean of York, who alleged that the archbishop had promised the reversion of the provostship to him before the death of the previous provost, Robert. In the period, 1201-c. 1212, he witnessed a charter of Andrew, Prior of Kirkham, to the hospital of St. Peter, York. In 1207 there was a suit between Morgan, Provost of Beverley, and Robert the Constable the younger. In 1211 the king granted Morgan and his younger brother, Roland Bluet, temporary grace for a debt of 500 marks, which debt was still mentioned in 1212 and again in 1214. In 1212 Robert the Constable made acknowledgement to Morgan that the church of Halsham, Yorkshire was the right of St. John of Beverley by the gift of Robert the Constable his uncle. Morgan was elected Bishop of Durham between 7 March and 7 May 1215 on King John's suggestion. In 1216 King John granted a prebend to the Archdeacon of Poitou "if Morgan, Provost of Beverley, be promoted to a bishopric." Morgan travelled to Rome, but his election as bishop was quashed by the Pope due to his illegitimacy. He subsequently returned to England and took vows as a crusader. The Pope granted his benefices, as belonging to a crusader, to the Master of the Temple in England for the prosecution of the crusade. However, Morgan died intestate as oblate at Fountains Abbey in 1217, before he could set out. When it was learned that Morgan had resigned all of his benefices before his death, Pope Honorius III wrote a letter to Archbishop Walter Gray dated 6 Nov. 1217, in which he rescinded the earlier grant to the Master of the Temple; the same day he likewise sent a mandate to the Master of the Temple ordering him to pay the proceeds of the benefices in question to the persons collated to them.
