      “WILLIAM FITZ ROBERT, 2nd Earl of Gloucester, lord of Glamorgan and Caerleon, seigneur of Torigny in Manche, Normandy, etc., Governor of Wareham Castle, 1144, son and heir. In 1128 he witnessed an agreement between his father and the Abbot of Fecamp. He married about 1150 HAWISE OF LEICESTER, daughter of Robert of Meulan, Knt., 1st Earl of Leicester, by Amice, daughter of Raoul, seigneur of Gael in Brittany and Bréteuil in Normandy [see LEICESTER 6 for her ancestry]. They had one son, Robert (living c.1170), and three daughters, Mabel, Amice, and Isabel. In 1128 he was a witness to an agreement between his father and the Abbot of Fécamp. In 1141 he served as surety for his father, then a prisoner at Rochester. In 1147 he overthrew Henry de Tracy at Castle Cary. Sometime in the period, 1147-50, probably before March 1148/9, he signed a treaty with Roger, Earl of Hereford, by which William agreed to hold faith and give aid to Roger as his man, against all men except their lord, Henry; William promised aid especially for the purpose of disinheriting Gilbert de Lacy. Sometime in the period, 1147-83, he granted Margam Abbey land in Margam, in exchange for the land of Baldwin the Harper of Newborough. Sometime in the period, 1147-83, he gave to the church and monks of St. Giles, Little Malvern, Worcestershire ten acres in the forest of Malvern with appurtenances in the said forest for inclosure and cultivation. In 1148 he gave a confirmation to Gloucester jointly with his mother. In 1153 he was one of the witnesses to the agreement between King Stephen and Henry, Duke of Normandy [afterwards King Henry II]; he also witnessed a charter of Duke Henry dated at Bristol. In 1158 he and his wife and son Robert were captured at Cardiff Castle by Ivor the Little and carried into the woods, where they were held as prisoners until the earl redressed Ivor's grievances. He witnessed a charter of his father-in-law, Robert, Earl of Leicester, dated c.1150-60. He founded Keynsham Priory in Somerset in 1169, and was a benefactor to many other religious foundations. About 1170 he granted his son, Robert, land in Margam, which Robert thereupon gave to Abbot Conan and the convent. In 1173 he took the king's part against his sons, and later that year went to the help of the king's forces at the Battle of Fornham. In 1174 he submitted to the king, and in 1175 he surrendered Bristol Castle to him. In 1178 he witnessed King Henry's charter to Waltham Abbey. In 1183 the king imprisoned a number of magnates of whose loyalty he was doubtful, including Earl William. About 1183 Earl William granted Walter Lageles land which his father held, for an annual rent of eight shillings. About 1183 he granted Kenaithur son of Herbert son of Godwinet and his brothers the lands of Keleculum and Treikik WILLIAM FITZ ROBERT, Earl of Gloucester, died 23 Nov. 1183, and was buried at Keynsham Abbey, Somerset. In the period, 1183-97, his widow, Hawise, granted W. de Arundel her servant a burgage situated beside the bridge of her borough of Fairford. In the same period, she granted to the burgesses of Peters field all the liberties and free customs which William her husband formerly granted to them by his charter. In 1189-90 she witnessed a charter of his brother, Robert, Earl of Leicester. Hawise, Countess of Gloucester, died 24 April 1197.

      2. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
      “BEATRICE DE WARENNE, daughter and heiress. She married (1st) before 1194 DOUN BARDOLF, of Ruskington, Lincolnshire. They had one son, William, Knt. DOUN BARDOLF died shortly before 24 Feb. 1204/5. She married (2nd) RALPH ___, whose identity is unknown. In Michaelmas 1209 his widow, Beatrice, accounted for 3100 marks to be paid within four years for having her father's lands and tenements which were her inheritance, as well as reasonable dower from the tenements of Doun Bardolf formerly her husband. She married (3rd) HUBERT DE BURGH, Knt., of Henlow, Bedfordshire, Aspley Guise, Buckinghamshire, Soham, Cambridgeshire, Corfe Mullen and Winford, Dorset, Kingsdown, Newington, and Tunstall, Kent, Beeston, Burgh, Cawston, Newton, Rougham, Norfolk, Sotherton, Suffolk, Banstead and Sheen, Surrey, Compton, Warwickshire, etc., Chamberlain to John, Count of Mortain [future King John], 1198-9, King's Chamberlain, 1199-1205, Sheriff of Herefordshire, 1200/1, 1215, Sheriff of Somersetshire and Dorsetshire, 1200-1, Constable of Windsor Castle, 1201, Constable of Dover Castle and Warden of the Cinque Ports, 1201, 1215-24, Warden of the Marches of Wales, 1201, Sheriff of Cornwall, 1202, Sheriff of Berkshire, 1202-4, Sheriff of Lincolnshire, 1208-13, Seneschal of Poitou, 1213-15, Justiciar of England, 1215-32, Sheriff of Kent, 1215-17, Sheriff of Surrey, 1215-16, Warden of the Exchange and Mint, 1215, Sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk, 1217-27, Sheriff of Westmorland, 1228-34, Justiciar of Ireland, 1232, Constable of the Tower of London, 1232, and, in right of his 1st wife, of Wormegay, North Runcton, and Stow Bardolf, Norfolk, and Finborough, Suffolk, Fletching and Portslade, Sussex, son and heir of [?Walter] de Burgh, by his wife, Alice [see BURGH 1 for his parentage]. They had one son, John, Knt. In or before 1198 he became Chamberlain to John, Count of Mortain [afterwards King John]. At John's accession to the throne, he became the most important official in the country, and received many grants of lands, wardships and offices, including Shrievaltys successively of eleven counties, and the honour of Camel, Somerset formerly belonging to William de Roumare. Sometime before 1202, he gave the church of East Camel, Somerset to Cleeve Abbey, Somerset. He held the castle of Chinon for King John, but after a year's siege, he was obliged to evacuate it. In the fight to break through the French lines was severely wounded and taken prisoner 23 June 1205, after which he was in disgrace and did not appear in public affairs for several years. He temporarily lost the honour of Camel, Somerset between 1205 and 1207, but recovered possession and held it until 1228, when he exchanged it for other royal lands. His wife, Beatrice, died shortly before 12 Dec. 1214. At the meeting at Runnymede he sided with King John, and was named in Magna Carta, and was one of those appointed to uphold the twenty-five Barons who were made custodians thereof. In 1216 he defended Dover Castle against Prince Louis and the Barons. In August 1217 he defeated a French fleet off Dover at the Battle of South Foreland. In Sept. 1217 he was a party to the treaty of peace made by Prince Louis at Lambeth before he left England. Hubert married (2nd) c.17 Sept. 1217 ISABEL OF GLOUCESTER, Countess of Gloucester, lady of Glamorgan, divorced wife of King John of England [see ENGLAND 5], and widow of Geoffrey de Mandeville, Knt., 5th Earl of Essex (died 23 Feb. 1215/6) [see ESSEX 2.i], and youngest daughter and co-heiress of William Fitz Robert, Earl of Gloucester, by Hawise, daughter of Robert of Meulan, Knt., 1st Earl of Leicester [see GLOUCESTER 4 for her ancestry]. They had no issue. His wife, Isabel, died 14 October 1217, and was buried in Canterbury Cathedral Church. He married (3rd) at York, Yorkshire in June 1221 MARGARET (or MARGERY) OF SCOTLAND [see SCOTLAND 4.iii], daughter of William the Lion, King of Scots, Earl of Huntingdon, by Ermengarde, daughter of Richard de Beaumont, Vicomte of Beaumont-en-Maine [see SCOTLAND 4 for her ancestry]. They had one daughter, Margaret. In 1221 he demanded that the royal castles, which had been seized by the Barons, and some of which were in the hands of foreigners likes Faukes de Breaute, should be restored to the Crown. In 1221 he gave the advowson of the church of Portslade, Sussex to Bradsole Abbey. About 1221 he founded a house of Dominican friars near Ludgate in London, and gave them land in Holborn for their house. In 1222 he suppressed a riot in London with great severity. In 1222 Matthew nephew of Geoffrey Wake fined 200 marks with him for a quitclaim to Ebbesborne Wake, Wiltshire. In 1223 the Earl of Chester with Faukes de Breaute and others combined against him, but he overcame them; in August 1224 he captured Breautes castle of Bedford and secured his banishment. He was granted a market at Burgh next Aylsham, Norfolk in 1226. He was created Earl of Kent 19 Feb. 1226/7, entailed on the issue of Hubert by his 3rd wife, Margaret In 1227 he and his wife, Margaret, were granted an unspecified number of fairs at three manors, including Nayland, Suffolk. In March 1227 the king granted him the manor of Upper Arleigh, Staffordshire, which formerly belonged to his brother, Thomas de Burgh, Knt. In 1228 he and his wife, Margaret, were granted unspecified markets and fairs at four manors, including Hadleigh, Essex and Haughley and Nayland, Suffolk. In 1229 Roger de Dauntsey, Knt., and his wife, Maud de Mandeville, Countess of Essex and Hereford, sold him one moiety of the manor of Long Compton, Warwickshire, including the capital messuage. In October 1229 he and his wife, Margaret, were granted the manor, castle, and honour of Knaresborough, Yorkshire; he also had a grant of the honour of Eye, Suffolk. He accompanied the king on his expedition to Poitou and Gascony in 1230, for the failure of which he was blamed. In 1231 he was granted a weekly market and a yearly fair at Long Compton, Warwickshire. In 1231 Anketil Mallore was summoned by Earl Hubert to state by what warrant he held the manor of [Upper] Arleigh, Staffordshire, which was the demesne of the king, and which the said Earl had by gift of the king. The king acknowledged that the Earl was in seisin, and had been disseised by him. Thus, it was considered that the Earl should recover his seisin, and that Anketill was in mercy. In early 1231 or early 1232 the pope set up an inquiry into Hubert's marriage on the grounds that Margaret his 3rd wife was related to his 2nd wife. Hubert's anger was widely known and provoked a papal letter of rebuke 9 June 1232. King Henry chafed at the restraints which his powerful minister imposed on him, and found an excuse to break him, depriving him of the Justiciarship. He was ordered to surrender the castles of Dover, Canterbury, Rochester, Windsor, Odiham, Hertford, Colchester, the Tower, and all his other castles. He was pardoned by the king in 1234; his lands were restored to him and he recovered his earldom. However, for the rest of his life he had little part in public affairs. In 1238 Huward de Bikelegh brought a suit against him for seizure of the fair at Holwell, Somerset. SIR HUBERT DE BURGH, Earl of Kent, died testate at Banstead, Surrey shortly before 5 May 1243. His widow, Margaret, Countess of Kent, died 15 Nov. 1259. He and his wife, Margaret, were buried in the church of the Black Friars, London.

      “GEOFFREY FITZ PETER, Knt., of Wellsworth (in Chalton), Hampshire, Cherhill and Costow, Wiltshire, Chief Forester, Sheriff of Northamptonshire, 1184-89, 1191-94, Sheriff of Essex and Hertfordshire, 1190-93, Constable of Hertford Castle, Justiciar of England, 1198-1213, Sheriff of Staffordshire, 1198, Sheriff of Yorkshire, 1198-1200, 1202-4, Sheriff of Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire, 1199-1204, Sheriff of Westmorland, 1199-1200, Sheriff of Hampshire, 1201-4, Sheriff of Shropshire, 1201-4, and, in right of his 1st wife, of Streadey, Berkshire, Amersharn and Quarrendon, Buckinghamshire, Pleshey, Essex, Digswell, Hertfordshire, Kimbolton, Huntingdonshire, etc., younger son, born before 1145. Sometime in the period, 1157-66, he witnessed an exchange of land between Roger de Tichborne and the Bishop of Winchester. He held a fee in Cherhill, Wiltshire of new enfeoffment in 1166. Sometime in the period, c.1166-90, Elias de Studley conveyed to him his land held of the fee of William Malbanc in Heytesbury and Cherhill, Wiltshire at an annual rent of 20s. In 1184 he accounted for the farm of Kinver before the itinerant justices in Oxfordshire. He married (1st) before 25 Jan. 1184/5 BEATRICE DE SAY, daughter and co-heiress of William de Say, of Kimbolton, Huntingdonshire, and Saham, Norfolk [see SAY 4.i for her ancestry]. They had three sons, Geoffrey de Mandeville [5th Earl of Essex], William de Mandeville, Knt. [6th Earl of Essex], and Henry [Dean of Wolverhampton], and two daughters, Maud and Alice. In 1186-7 King Henry II granted him the manor of Cherhill, Wiltshire, to hold in fee and inheritance by the service of one knight, as his father Peter or his brother Robert held it. In the period, 1186-89, he and his two half-brothers, William and Hugh de Buckland, witnessed a charter of William, Earl of Ferrers, to Ralph Fitz Stephen. In the period, c.1189-99, he founded Shouldham Abbey, Norfolk, to which he gave the manor and the advowson of the church of Shouldham, Norfolk, together with the churches of Shouldham Thorpe, Stoke Ferry, and Wereham, Norfolk. In 1190 he obtained the lands to which his wife's grandmother, Beatrice, had become heir on the death of her nephew, William de Mandeville, Earl of Essex. From Easter 1190 he received the third penny of the county of Essex. Sometime in the period, 1190-1213, Sibyl de Fiennes, daughter of Pharamus of Boulogne, conveyed to him 300 acres on Hyngeshill [?in Quarrendon, Buckinghamshire] at an annual rent of an unmewed sparrowhawk, or 12d. Sometime in the period, 1190-1213, he granted the manor of Cherhill, Wiltshire to his younger son, William de Mandeville. He was one of those excommunicated for his part in removing Longchamp in 1191. About 1195 he and his half-brothers, William and Geoffrey de Buckland, witnessed a charter of Geoffrey Fitz Nigel de Gardino to William de Ultra la Haia. In 1195 he owed £4 4s. in the vill of Lydford, Devon for making the market of the king there. His wife, Beatrice, died in childbed before 19 April 1197. Her body was initially buried in Chicksands Priory, Bedfordshire, but later transferred to Shouldham Priory, Norfolk. In 1198 Eustace de Balliol and his wife, Pernel (widow of Geoffrey's brother Robert), quitclaimed all their right to lands in Salthrop (in Wroughton), Wiltshire to Geoffrey, in return for 30 marks silver. He was present at the Coronation of King John 27 May 1199, where he was girded with the sword of earl. In the period, 1199-1216, Geoffrey gave Shouldham Priory, Norfolk twelve shops, with the rooms over them, in the parish of St. Mary's Colechurch, London, for the purpose of sustaining the lights of the church and of providing the sacramental wine. Sometime in or before 1199, he made a grant to William de Wrotham, Archdeacon of Taunton, of all his land of Sutton at Hone, Kent to make a hospital for the maintenance of thirteen poor men and three chaplains in honour of the Holy Trinity, St. Mary, and All Saints. He was granted a weekly market and yearly fair at Amersham, Buckinghamshire and Kimbolton, Huntingdonshire in 1200. In the period, 1200-13, he made notification that Abbot Ralph and the convent of Westminster had at his petition confirmed to the nuns of Shouldham all tithes pertaining to them in Clakelose Hundred, Norfolk, in return for £1 10s. due annually to the almoner of Westminster. In the same period, Abbot Ralph and the convent of Westminster granted him the vill of Claygate, Surrey to hold of them for his lifetime. In 1204 King John granted him the manor of Winterslow, Wiltshire, and, in 1205, the honour of Berkhampstead, Hertfordshire with the castle at a fee farm of £100 per annum. Geoffrey married (2nd) before 29 May 1205 (date of grant) AVELINE DE CLARE, widow of William de Munchensy, of Swanscombe, Kent, Winfarthing and Gooderstone, Norfolk, etc. (died shortly before 7 May 1204) [see CLARE 4.ii], and daughter of Roger de Clare, Earl of Clare or Hertford, by Maud, daughter and heiress of James de Saint Hilary [see CLARE 4 for her ancestry]. They had one son, John, Knt, and four daughters, Hawise, Cecily, ___, and Maud. He campaigned against the Welsh in 1206 and 1210. He was granted a significant part of the lands forfeited by Normans, including the manors of Depden and Hatfield Peverel, Essex, and other lands in Norfolk and Suffolk, all worth over £100 per annum. In 1207 the king confirmed his possession of the manor of Notgrove, Gloucestershire, which Geoffrey had by the gift of John Eskelling. The same year he was granted a weekly market and yearly fair at Moretonhampstead, Devon. Sometime before 1212, he was granted the manor of Gussage Dynaunt (or Gussage St. Michael), Dorset, which manor was forfeited by Roland de Dinan. At some unspecified date, when already earl, he granted all his right in St. Peter's chapel in Drayton to the canons of St. Peter's Cathedral, York. He was the founder of the first church of Whitney Priory, Hampshire. SIR GEOFFREY FITZ PETER, Earl of Essex, died 14 October 1213, and was buried in Shouldham Priory, Norfolk. In 1213-4 the king commanded Geoffrey de Buckland to let the king have, at the price any others would give for them, the corn, pigs, and other chattels at Berkhampstead, Hertfordshire which belonged his brother, Geoffrey Fitz Peter, lately deceased. About 1214 his widow, Aveline, granted the canons of Holy Trinity, London, in frank almoin, a half mark quit rent out of her manor of Towcester, Northamptonshire, part of whose body is buried there. In 1221 the Prior of the Hospital of Jerusalem in England sued her regarding two virgates and five acres of land in Towcester, Northamptonshire. Aveline, Countess of Essex, died before 4 June 1225.

      “WILLIAM FITZ ROBERT, 2nd Earl of Gloucester, lord of Glamorgan and Caerleon, seigneur of Torigny in Manche, Normandy, etc., Governor of Wareham Castle, 1144, son and heir. In 1128 he witnessed an agreement between his father and the Abbot of Fecamp. He married about 1150 HAWISE OF LEICESTER, daughter of Robert of Meulan, Knt., 1st Earl of Leicester, by Amice, daughter of Raoul, seigneur of Gael in Brittany and Bréteuil in Normandy [see LEICESTER 6 for her ancestry]. They had one son, Robert (living c.1170), and three daughters, Mabel, Amice, and Isabel. In 1128 he was a witness to an agreement between his father and the Abbot of Fécamp. In 1141 he served as surety for his father, then a prisoner at Rochester. In 1147 he overthrew Henry de Tracy at Castle Cary. Sometime in the period, 1147-50, probably before March 1148/9, he signed a treaty with Roger, Earl of Hereford, by which William agreed to hold faith and give aid to Roger as his man, against all men except their lord, Henry; William promised aid especially for the purpose of disinheriting Gilbert de Lacy. Sometime in the period, 1147-83, he granted Margam Abbey land in Margam, in exchange for the land of Baldwin the Harper of Newborough. Sometime in the period, 1147-83, he gave to the church and monks of St. Giles, Little Malvern, Worcestershire ten acres in the forest of Malvern with appurtenances in the said forest for inclosure and cultivation. In 1148 he gave a confirmation to Gloucester jointly with his mother. In 1153 he was one of the witnesses to the agreement between King Stephen and Henry, Duke of Normandy [afterwards King Henry II]; he also witnessed a charter of Duke Henry dated at Bristol. In 1158 he and his wife and son Robert were captured at Cardiff Castle by Ivor the Little and carried into the woods, where they were held as prisoners until the earl redressed Ivor's grievances. He witnessed a charter of his father-in-law, Robert, Earl of Leicester, dated c.1150-60. He founded Keynsham Priory in Somerset in 1169, and was a benefactor to many other religious foundations. About 1170 he granted his son, Robert, land in Margam, which Robert thereupon gave to Abbot Conan and the convent. In 1173 he took the king's part against his sons, and later that year went to the help of the king's forces at the Battle of Fornham. In 1174 he submitted to the king, and in 1175 he surrendered Bristol Castle to him. In 1178 he witnessed King Henry's charter to Waltham Abbey. In 1183 the king imprisoned a number of magnates of whose loyalty he was doubtful, including Earl William. About 1183 Earl William granted Walter Lageles land which his father held, for an annual rent of eight shillings. About 1183 he granted Kenaithur son of Herbert son of Godwinet and his brothers the lands of Keleculum and Treikik WILLIAM FITZ ROBERT, Earl of Gloucester, died 23 Nov. 1183, and was buried at Keynsham Abbey, Somerset. In the period, 1183-97, his widow, Hawise, granted W. de Arundel her servant a burgage situated beside the bridge of her borough of Fairford. In the same period, she granted to the burgesses of Peters field all the liberties and free customs which William her husband formerly granted to them by his charter. In 1189-90 she witnessed a charter of his brother, Robert, Earl of Leicester. Hawise, Countess of Gloucester, died 24 April 1197.
