MARGERY (or MARGARET) OF SCOTLAND, married at Berwick 1 August 1235 GILBERT MARSHAL, Knt., 7th Earl of Pembroke, hereditary Master Marshal [see MARSHAL 3.iii], of Hampstead Marshall, Berkshire, Silchester, Hampshire, Hinxworth, Hertfordshire, etc., 3rd son of William Marshal, Knt., 4th Earl of Pembroke (or Strigoil), hereditary Master Marshal, by Isabel, daughter of Richard Fitz Gilbert (nicknamed Strongbow), 2nd Earl of Pembroke (or Strigoil) [see MARSHAL 3 for his ancestry]. He received with her a large dowry in Scotland, with 10,000 marks and more. They had no issue. By an unknown mistress, he had one illegitimate daughter, Isabel (contracted to marry Rhys ap Maelgwn Vychan [died 1255]). He was originally intended for the Church. He took minor orders and from 1225 held benefices. In 1229 he went to the Holy Land. He supported his older brother, Richard Marshal, and acted for him in Ireland. He was heir in 1234 to his brother, Richard Marshal, Knt., 6th Earl of Pembroke. The king knighted him at Winchester 11 June 1234, and invested him with the Earldom of Pembroke and the office of Marshal. In Dec. 1234 he was granted the honor of Laigle, Sussex, together with Pevensey Castle. In 1235 he was granted the honors of Glamorgan and Carmarthen. He officiated as Marshal at the Coronation of Queen Eleanor in 1236. In 1238 he supported his brother-in-law, Richard, Earl of Cornwall, against the king's foreign favorites. Sometime after 1234 he enfeoffed Godfrey de Crowcombe and Ralph Fitz Nicholas in his manor of Compton Bassett, Wiltshire, in return for nominal services of spurs and gloves. SIR GILBERT MARSHAL, Earl of Pembroke, died at Hertford Priory 27 June 1241 of injuries received at a tournament, and was buried in the new Temple Church, London beside his father and brother. He was a benefactor to the monastery of St. Mary de Gloria in the diocese of Anagni, to the abbeys of Nutley and Tintern, and to the lepers' hospital of St. Mary Magdalene of Little Haverford. His widow, Margery, Countess of Pembroke, died 17 Nov. 1244, and was buried in the church of the Black Friars, London.
