  RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): “AUBREY DE DAMMARTIN, Count of Dammartin-en-Goële, of Little Haugh (in Norton), Suffolk, and, in right of his 2nd wife, of Piddington, Oxfordshireson and heir, born say 1100. He married (1st) MAUD ___, possibly daughter of William de Saint Clair, of Hamerton, Huntingdonshire. They had one son, Aubrey II [Count of Dammartin]. In 1130-35 King Henry I of England confirmed to him all the land of his father in the manor of Norton, Suffolk. In the period, 1148-53?, he and Eudes de Dammartin were granted lands in Wrestlingworth, Bedfordshire and Beachampstead (in Great Staughton), Huntingdonshire. He was granted the manor of Hamerton, Huntingdonshire about 1152-3, to hold by the service of one knight. In the period, 1147-65, he and his wife, Maud, confirmed the earlier grant of the church of Hamerton, Huntingdonshire made by William de Saint Clair to the monks of Colchester Monastery. About 1150-60 he witnessed a charter of Manasser de Dammartin to Missenden Abbey. In 1162 Arnauri, Bishop of Senlis, attested in the presence of King Louis that Aubrey, Count of Dammartin, and his father, Aubrey the Chamberlain, confirmed to the Abbey of Chaalis all that the Abbey possessed in the county of Dammartin. Sometime after c.1162 and before 1166, as Aubrey, Count of Dammartin, he granted the manor of Norton, Suffolk to his brother, William de Dammartin 1166, died ante 1170). He married (2nd) before 1164 JOAN BASSET, widow successively of Guy de Ryhall (otherwise Fitz Pain, de Cahaines) (died c. 1151-52), of Ryhall, Rutlandshire and Piddington, Oxfordshire, and Simon de Gerardmoulin (living 1152-53), of Merton and Piddington, Oxfordshire, and daughter of Gilbert Basset, of Bicester and Wallingford, by his wife, Edith d'Oilly. In 1174 either he or his son, Aubrey, as "Aubrey Count of Dammartin," witnessed a charter of Ralph Fitz Ralph Fitz Reinger and his brother, Hugh, to Rufford Abbey.

Anselme et Bosquillon se bornent à énoncer l’identité sans apporter de preuves à l'appui. André Duchesne, qui a avancé le fait le premier, Histoire de la maison de Bar, fo 23, est plus explicite et en meme temps moins affirmatif. 'Il est vrai, dit-il, que l'historien Alberic ne parle point du second mariage de Clémence de Bar avec le comte de Dammartin, mais je l'ai recueilli de plusieurs conjectures et raisons fort vraisemblables. Car en premier lieu quelques titres de l'abbaye de Saint-Denis en France font mention d'une Clémence, comtesse de Dammartin, veuve en l’année 1153. Secondement par une charte de l'abbaye d'Andres, Hugues de Clairemont, abbé de Cluny, fils de Clemence, est dit oncle de Renaut, comte de Boulogne et de Dammartin, fils d'Alberic II, ce qui ne pourroit convenir, sinon en accordant qu'Alberic et Hugues étoient frères utérins. On bien il faudroit que Mahaut, mere de comte Renaud, eut été sæur du mesme Hugues. En quoi II n'y a point d'apparence, vu qu'après la mort de Catherine, comtesse de Clermont, fille du comte Raoul et d'Alix de Breteuil, les enfants de cette Mahaut ne participerent point à la succession d'icelle, comme firent ceux de Marguerite de Clermont, sæur de Hugues et de Raoul. En troisième lieu, Rigordus, auteur du siècle, dit sous l’année 1212 que la comtesse de Clermont lors vivante, savoir est Catherine, file de Raoul, étoit cousine de Renaut de Dammartin. Bref Albéric écrit qu'en la même année Renaut sortant du royaume se retira par devers le comte de Bar, Thibaut Ier, lequel II qualifie aussi son cousin. D'on II s'ensuit que Clémence, comtesse de Dammartin, son aïeule, doit avoir eté de la maison de Bar et la même que Clémence de Bar, conjointe avec Renaut, comte de Clairmont en Beauvaisis.).
