TAILLEBOIS

Loyd indicates that this family originated in Cristot in the present-day French département of Calvados, arrondissement Caen, canton Tilly-sur-Seulles[1]. The Taillebois family was studied by Ragg in the late 1920s[2]. He reproduces charters from the mid-13th century but provides no source citations for the earlier period. Until more information comes to light, his work appears to be of limited value.

[Three possible brothers:]

1. IVO Taillebois [I] (-[1094/95], bur Spalding). Ragg lists property in Lancashire and Westmorland which Ivo [I] donated to York St. Mary but does not cite his sources[3]. "…Ivo Taillebois, Robert de Oilli" witnessed the spurious charter, purportedly dated 25 Dec [1071/75], under which William I King of England donated Chelsea to the monks of Westminster[4]. "…Ivonem Taillebois…" witnessed the charter under which William I King of England confirmed the rights of Ely abbey[5]. “Ivo Taleboys” donated Spalding Monastery to the church of Saint-Nicholas Anjou, for “conjugis suæ Luciæ et antecessorum Toraldi…uxoris eius” by undated charter[6]. “Ivo Talliebois” donated property to St Mary, York, for the soul of “uxoris meæ Luciæ”, by undated charter witnessed by “Lucia uxore mea, Ribaldo genero meo, Radulpho Taillebois…”[7]. A charter of King Henry II records donations to York St Mary, including the donation of land “in Claxtuna et ecclesiam de Kirkby-Stephen…” by “Ivo Taillebois”[8]. Domesday Book records “Ivo Taillebois” holding numerous properties in Lincolnshire[9]. “…Ivonis de Taliber…” witnessed the charter dated Sep 1093 under which William II King of England donated property to Lincoln cathedral[10]. Ingulph's Chronicle of the Abbey of Croyland records the death of "Ivo Taillebois who had always been a most bitter enemy to Croyland" and his burial by "his wife the lady Lucia" in the priory of Spalding[11]. m as her first husband, LUCY, daughter of --- (-1138, bur Spalding). The Chronicon Angliæ Petriburgense records "Luciæ comitissæ…filiæ Algari comitis Leicestriæ" as husband of "Ivo Tailbois comes Andegavensis, dominus Spaldingiæ et totius Hollandiæ" and "Toraldus avunculus eiusdem Luciæ"[12]. No other source has been yet been identified which names one of the parents of Lucy. If the source is accurate (and it is a later source), it is not known whether the relationship with Thorold was through Lucy’s father or mother, although if "avunculus" is used in its strict sense (which is not beyond doubt) Thorold was her maternal uncle. A manuscript recording the foundation of Spalding monastery records that “Yvo Talboys” married "Thoroldo…hærede Lucia" who, after the death of Ivo, married (in turn) "Rogerum filium Geroldi" and "comitem Cestriæ Ranulphum"[13]. “Ivo Taleboys” donated Spalding Monastery to the church of Saint-Nicholas Anjou, for “conjugis suæ Luciæ et antecessorum Toraldi…uxoris eius” by undated charter[14]. She married secondly (after 1094) Roger FitzGerold. Ingulph's Chronicle of the Abbey of Croyland records that "his wife the lady Lucia" married "Roger de Romar the son of Gerald de Romar" when "hardly had one month elapsed after the death" of her first husband "Ivo Taillebois"[15]. She married thirdly (1098) Ranulf "Meschin" Vicomte du Bessin. Ivo [I] & [his wife] had [two] children:

a) [[BEATRIX] . Assuming that “genero” in the following document was used in its strict sense of son-in-law, Ribald’s wife was Ivo’s daughter: “Ivo Talliebois” donated property to St Mary, York, for the soul of “uxoris meæ Luciæ”, by undated charter witnessed by “Lucia uxore mea, Ribaldo genero meo, Radulpho Taillebois…”[16]. The difficulty is that “gener” was sometimes used in medieval documents to indicate brother-in-law. Ingulph's Chronicle of the Abbey of Croyland records that the "only daughter" of "Ivo Taillebois…[and] his wife the lady Lucia" married "a husband of noble rank" but "died before her father"[17]. It is possible that this passage refers to the wife of Ribald. Assuming that this was the same wife of Ribald, her name is confirmed by the following document: “Ribaldus frater comitis” donated property to St Mary, York, for the soul of “Alani comitis et Beatricis uxoris meæ”, by undated charter[18]. As Ingulph says that Ivo’s daughter predeceased her father, it is possible that Beatrix was a later wife of Ribald and not Ivo’s daughter. m RIBALD, illegitimate son of EUDES de Bretagne Comte de Penthièvre & his mistress ---.]

b) [daughter . Domesday Descendants suggests that Ingulph (quoted above) was incorrect and that Ivo Taillebois [I] left a second daughter who was the wife of Eldred, noting that the couple’s grandson William de Lancaster held the barony of Kendal which Ivo had previously held[19]. This is contradicted by an undated manuscript relating to Cockersand Abbey, Lancashire which names “Elthredum” as son of ”Ivo Tailbot”[20], although this statement is improbable as no other primary sources indicate that Ivo had sons. m ELDRED, son of ---.]

2. [RALPH Taillebois (-after 1085). “Ivo Talliebois” donated property to St Mary, York, for the soul of “uxoris meæ Luciæ”, by undated charter witnessed by “Lucia uxore mea, Ribaldo genero meo, Radulpho Taillebois…”[21]. The precise relationship between Ivo Taillebois and Ralph Taillebois is not known, but the positioning of their names in this charter directly after Ivo’s son-in-law suggests that it was close. Maybe they were brothers. Domesday Book records that “Peter de Valognes and Ralph Taillebois” took Welbury in Hertfordshire from "Ilbert [who] put it in his manor of Lilley while he was sheriff"[22]. This joint action suggests a family relationship between Ralph and Peter de Valoignes.] m AZELINA, daughter of ---. Domesday Book records “Azelina wife of Ralph Taillebois” holding half a hide of land in Soulbury in Cottesloe Hundred from the king in Buckinghamshire; several properties in Bedfordshire[23]. Ralph & his wife had one child:

a) daughter (-after 1085). Domesday Book records that “the daughter of Ralph Taillebois holds in Hunsdon 4 hides of the fief of Hugh de Beauchamp…Ralph Taillebois took it from Stanstead Abbots and attached it to this manor” in Braughing Hundred in Hertfordshire[24].

3. [WILLIAM Taillebois (-after 1085). Domesday Book records “William Taillebois” holding West Ashby and Alford in Lincolnshire[25].]

The family relationships, if any, between the following individuals and the earlier Taillebois family has not been established. It should be noted that a mid-15th century source records that three of the sons of Ribald, whose wife may have been the daughter of Ivo Taillebois as shown above, were named “Taillebois”[26]. The accuracy of such a late source to record events which occurred more than 300 years earlier is uncertain, but the document does demonstrate the possibility that the name “Taillebois” was transmitted outside Ivo’s direct family.

Two brothers:

1. GUILLAUME Taillebois . "Guillaume Taillebois" donated land "à Secqueville" to the abbey of Ardennes, Calvados, for his soul and that of "son frère Robert", by undated charter[27].

2. ROBERT Taillebois . "Guillaume Taillebois" donated land "à Secqueville" to the abbey of Ardennes, Calvados, for his soul and that of "son frère Robert", by undated charter[28].

1. AIMERY Taillebois (-after 1204). Ragg names “Americ Taillebois, also called Thebert...Archdeacon of Carlisle from 1196 with a short interval till at least after 1204”[29].

2. IVO Taillebois [II] (-[1212/14]). A book of fees records that “Ivo de Tailbois” held “baroniam de Hephall cum uxore sua…filia [error for uxor, see other sources quoted below] Will de Bardulf”, previously granted to [a different, from the context] “Will Bardolf” by William I King of England[30]. The Testa de Nevill lists knights who held land in Durham, dated to [1208/10]: "Ivo Talleboys" held "in capite de domino rege Theynagium quod fuit Willelmi filii Willelmi per Elyzabet uxorem suam…"[31]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Yvo Taylebois" holding "baroniam de Ephal[ton] cum uxore W[illelmi] Badulfi" with one knight’s fee from King John in Northumberland in [1210/12][32]. The Testa de Nevill includes a writ of King John dated 1212 which records "Yvo Tailleboys" holding "baroniam de Hephale cum uxore qui fuit Willelmi Bardolf quam habet de dono domini Regis Johannis" in Northumberland[33]. His date of death is estimated from the 1214 reference quoted below under his wife. m ([1206/10]) as her [second/third] husband, ELIZABETH, widow of WILLIAM Bardulf, daughter of [WILLIAM FitzWilliam & his wife ---] (-before 6 Jul 1255). There is some doubt about Elizabeth’s parentage. On the one hand, Ragg records the sheriff accounting for receipts from “William son of William” in the Pipe Roll for Northumberland from 1177, ending before 1198 when “William Bardolf” rendered accounts for “taking to wife her who was the wife of William son of William, and for being allowed to place out in marriage three daughters of her and of William son of William”[34]. The text of the 1198 Pipe Roll entry has not been checked. On the other hand, King John confirmed land "in Hepedale et in Kokedale", which "Will fil Will patre predicte Elysabeth tenuit", to "Willelmo Bardulf et Elysabeth uxori sue" by charter dated 25 Apr 1200[35]. Until more information comes to light, judging which version is correct would be speculative. "Elizabeth q fuit uxor Willi Bard" paid a fine to marry where she will, in Northumberland, dated 1206[36]. A book of fees records that “Ivo de Tailbois” held “baroniam de Hephall cum uxore sua…filia [error for uxor, see other sources quoted below] Will de Bardulf”, previously granted to [a different, from the context] “Will Bardolf” by William I King of England[37]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Yvo Taylebois" holding "baroniam de Ephal[ton] cum uxore W[illelmi] Badulfi" with one knight’s fee from King John in Northumberland in [1210/12][38]. The Testa de Nevill includes a writ of King John dated 1212 which records "Yvo Tailleboys" holding "baroniam de Hephale cum uxore qui fuit Willelmi Bardolf quam habet de dono domini Regis Johannis" in Northumberland[39]. Ragg states that “Elizabeth who was the wife of Ivo Tailbois” paid for the king’s writ in 1214[40]. The Testa de Nevill includes a list of landholdings in Yorkshire, dated 1219, which includes "uxor Ivonis Talleboys" holding land in Northumberland[41]. An inquisition following a writ dated 6 Jul "40 Hen III", after the death of "Elizabeth Taylebois alias Taylboes", names "Robert Taylboes her son aged 40 at least is her heir" and lists one unspecified knight’s fee in Northumberland[42]. Ivo [II] & his wife had [two] children:

a) ROBERT Taillebois [I] (before 1215-before 18 Oct 1256). Ragg states that Robert was the son of Elizabeth, wife of Ivo [II], although he does not say that Ivo was his father[43]. His parentage appears confirmed by his mother’s inquisition (see above). “Robertus Taylebois” confirmed “terram meam de Banton et Ascumbe” to “Roberto le Franceis filio Hugonis le Franceis de Westmerland et Elychabet uxori sue” by charter dated to [1235][44]. An inquisition following a writ dated 18 Oct "41 Hen III", after the death of "Robert Tayleboys alias Taleboys", names "Robert his son is his heir and of full age" and “Margery late his wife is dowered by the command of the queen”, listing one unspecified knight’s fee in Northumberland[45]. m MARGERY, daughter of --- (-after 1259). An inquisition following a writ dated 18 Oct "41 Hen III", after the death of "Robert Tayleboys alias Taleboys", names “Margery late his wife is dowered by the command of the queen”[46]. Ragg says that Robert’s widow (whom he does not name) claimed land “in Clifburne” from “Robert le Franceys” in 1259[47]. Robert [I] & his wife had one child:

i) ROBERT Taillebois [II] (-before 18 Oct 1281). An inquisition following a writ dated 18 Oct "41 Hen III", after the death of "Robert Tayleboys alias Taleboys", names "Robert his son is his heir and of full age"[48]. An inquisition following a writ dated 7 Jun "9 Edw I", after the death of "Robert Taylleboys alias Taillebois", names “Luke his son aged 23 is his next heir” and a moiety of the manor of “Hephale...and of the town of Tossan” as one knight’s fee in Northumberland[49]. m ---. The name of Robert’s wife is not known. Robert [II] & his wife had one child:

(a) LUKE Taillebois ([1257/58]-). An inquisition following a writ dated 7 Jun "9 Edw I", after the death of "Robert Taylleboys alias Taillebois", names “Luke his son aged 23 is his next heir”[50].

b) [ELIZABETH . “Robertus Taylebois” confirmed “terram meam de Banton et Ascumbe” to “Roberto le Franceis filio Hugonis le Franceis de Westmerland et Elychabet uxori sue” by charter dated to [1235][51]. The inclusion in this document of the grantee’s wife suggests that she may have been related to the grantor. Could she have been Robert Taillebois’s sister? m ROBERT le Franceys, son of HUGH le Franceys & his wife ---.]

3. IVO de Taillebois [III] . "Yvonem de Taillebois" donated "ecclesie et juris patronatus de Cristot" to Vendôme La-Trinité, undated[52]. The identity of the donor, whether he was the same person as Ivo Taillebois [II], or even whether he was a member of the English Taillebois family at all, has not been ascertained.

TOTNES

1. ALURED . m ---. The name of Alured’s wife is not known. Alured & his wife had one child:

a) JUHEL de Totnes (-[1099/1129]). [“…Whali [Rahel?] filii Aluredi…” witnessed the charter dated 1082 under which William I King of England granted land at Covenham to the church of St Calais[53]. It appears likely that "Whali" is a transcription error for "Juheli".] His parentage is confirmed by the undated charter under which “Joelis filii Aluredi” founded Barnstaple Priory[54]. His name suggests Breton origin. Domesday Book records “Iudichael of Totnes” holding numerous properties in Devonshire, and Froxton in Cornwall[55]. “Juhellus filius Aluredi” founded Totness Priory by undated charter, dated to the reign of William II King of England[56]. An undated charter records that King William II expelled “Juhello de Totenesio" from "hæreditatem eius" and granted it to "Rogerio de Novant” founded Totness Priory by undated charter, dated to the reign of William II King of England[57]. m --- de Picquigny, daughter of ---. A "sœur de Guermond de Picquigny, mariée en Angleterre avec un riche seigneur nommé Joelle de Totenes" is referred to in the De Miraculis sanctæ Mariæ Laudunensis[58]. Juhel & his wife had [three] children:

i) ALURED (-after 1136). The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Alur fil Johel" accounting for "terre patris sui" in Devonshire[59]. The Gesta Stephani Regis records that "Aluredo filio Joelis" held out against the king, after helping his friend Baldwin de Reviers at the siege of Exeter, following the surrender of most of his followers, dated to [1136][60].

ii) ELEANOR . "Philippus de Brausia" confirmed the donations to the church of Saints Gervais et Protais de Briouze, by "pater eius Guillemus de Brausia", by charter dated 5 Jan [1096], with the consent of "uxor eius Aanor et Guillelmus filius suus"[61]. Her parentage is confirmed by the undated charter under which “Willielmus de Braosa” confirmed donations to Barnstaple Priory by "Johelis avi sui" by undated charter[62]. m PHILIP [I] de Briouse, son of GUILLAUME [I] de Briouse & his wife --- ([1060/70]-[1131/39]).

iii) [daughter . The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified. It is probably speculative, designed to explain how the Tracy family held part of the honour of Barnstaple (the other part of which was in the hands of the Briouse family, inherited through Juhel de Totnes’s recorded daughter Eleanor): the 1176/77 Pipe Roll names "Oliverus de Traci…pro parte sua de honore de Berdestapl" in Devonshire[63]. Domesday Descendants comments that the honour of Barnstaple "probably came to [Henry de Tracy] by grant of King Stephen, against whom Alfred [fitz Juhel] had fought in the previous year, though the possibility that his wife was a sister of Alfred cannot be excluded"[64]. Stapleton is more specific, stating that Oliver de Tracy held "a moiety of the Honour of Barnstaple…through the grant of King Stephen to his father Henry de Tracy, but which grant had been made to the prejudice of the heir of the former possessor Joel son of Alured, who was the grandfather of William de Briouze"[65]. m --- de Tracy, son of ---.]

TRACY

Loyd says that “the actual place from which the family took its name is a difficult question. At first sight there is much to be said for Tracy-sur-Mer (Calvados, arrondissement Bayeux, canton Ryes)...[but] it is shown by the Bayeux Inquest of 1133 that [the place] was then held by William Picot, [therefore] such a theory becomes untenable. Two other places of the name remain – Tracy-Bocage (Calvados, arrondissement Caen, canton Villers-Bocage) and Tracy a fief in Neuville (Calvados, arrondissement and canton Vire). As regards the first it lies wide of any of the ascertained lands of the family...[the second] is somewhat more hopeful...whatever the origin of the name...the Tracies were under-tenants in the département of La Manche of the comté of Mortain. In view of this it is not without significance that Stephen was count of Mortain and that Henry de Tracy of Barnstaple was the king’s most prominent and persistent adherent in Devon”[66].

The Tracy family provides yet another example of bogus descents which were fabricated in later centuries, presumably to provide more illustrious ancestors for contemporary family members. The result for the present-day is considerable confusion and inaccurate information in many published secondary sources. The following is an attempt at finding a way through the puzzle, but it does not claim to provide the definitive answer to all the difficulties.

A. TRACY of BARNSTAPLE, DEVONSHIRE

Two siblings, parents not identified.

1. WILLIAM de Tracy (-after 1110). “William de Tracy" donated property to Mont Saint-Michel on becoming a monk there by charter dated 1110, signed by "…Guillelmi de Traceio, Rohes[ie] uxoris sue, Turgisi filii sui, Henrici filii sui, Gieve sororis sue”[67]. William presumably died soon afterwards. m ROHESE, daughter of --- (-after 1110). “William de Tracy" donated property to Mont Saint-Michel on becoming a monk there by charter dated 1110, signed by "…Guillelmi de Traceio, Rohes[ie] uxoris sue, Turgisi filii sui, Henrici filii sui, Gieve sororis sue”[68]. William & his wife had [three] children:

a) TURGISE [I] de Tracy (-after 1110). “William de Tracy" donated property to Mont Saint-Michel on becoming a monk there by charter dated 1110, signed by "…Guillelmi de Traceio, Rohes[ie] uxoris sue, Turgisi filii sui, Henrici filii sui, Gieve sororis sue”[69].

b) HENRY de Tracy ). “William de Tracy" donated property to Mont Saint-Michel on becoming a monk there by charter dated 1110, signed by "…Guillelmi de Traceio, Rohes[ie] uxoris sue, Turgisi filii sui, Henrici filii sui, Gieve sororis sue”[70]. same person as...? HENRY de Tracy of Barnstaple (-[1164/65]). “Henricus de Traci…cum filio meo Olivero” donated property to Barnstaple Priory by charter dated 1146[71]. The 1164/65 Pipe Roll records "Oliverus de Traci" owing ".D. m p parte sua de Honore de Barnestapl" in Devonshire, maybe indicating the recent death of his father[72]. m [firstly] (after [1130/35]) as her second husband, CECILY de Rumilly, widow of WILLIAM FitzRanulf, daughter and heiress of ROBERT de Rumilly [Romilly] of Skipton & his wife ---. Domesday Descendants notes that Cecily de Rumilly married as her second husband "Henry de Tracy of Barnstaple", without citing the corresponding primary source, but adds that "there is no evidence to suggest that she was the mother of Henry de Tracy’s heir Oliver"[73]. No source has been found which indicates her date of death. m [secondly] HAWISE, daughter of ---. Her marriage is indicated by an undated charter which confirms that her grandson "domini Henrici de Tracy" requested a daily mass at Pilton St James, for the souls of "Henrici de Traci avi sui et Oliveri patris sui et Hawysiæ avæ suæ"[74]. Assuming that this is the only mention of Hawise, it is presumably possible that she was either Henry’s paternal or maternal grandmother, although her being named with his father and paternal grandfather (and without his maternal grandfather) suggests the likelihood that she was his paternal grandmother. If that is correct, no indication has been found to suggest the order of Henry’s marriages, although the date of death of Hawise’s son Oliver suggests the unlikelihood that he was born before [1130/35] and therefore that Hawise was her husband’s first wife. This suggestion may be subject to change if a source emerges which confirms that Cecily de Rumilly survived after [1140]. Henry & his [second] wife had one child:

i) OLIVER de Tracy ([1140?]-[1208/11]). “Henricus de Traci…cum filio meo Olivero” donated property to Barnstaple Priory by charter dated 1146[75].

- see below.

c) [WILLIAM de Tracy (-after [1135/49]). “...Jordanus, Robertus et Henricus de Barnevilla, Guillelmus de Tracei...” witnessed the charter dated to [1135/49] under which “Philippus de Carteret” donated “decimam Sancti Audoeni in Gersoi” to Mont-Saint-Michel[76]. William’s parentage is not known, but the chronology suggests that he may have been another son of William.]

2. GEVA (-after 1110). “William de Tracy" donated property to Mont Saint-Michel on becoming a monk there by charter dated 1110, signed by "…Guillelmi de Traceio, Rohes[ie] uxoris sue, Turgisi filii sui, Henrici filii sui, Gieve sororis sue”[77].

OLIVER de Tracy, son of HENRY de Tracy & his [second] wife Hawise --- ([1140?]-[1209/10]). “Henricus de Traci…cum filio meo Olivero” donated property to Barnstaple Priory by charter dated 1146[78]. His birth date is estimated very approximately on the assumption that Oliver was a young child in 1146, that his mother was Henry’s second wife as discussed above, and bearing in mind his date of death. His parentage is indicated by the 28 Jan 1196 document cited below, which confirms that all the sources cited in this paragraph relate to the same Oliver, son of Henry. The 1164/65 Pipe Roll records "Oliverus de Traci" owing ".D. m p parte sua de Honore de Barnestapl" in Devonshire, maybe indicating the recent death of his father[79]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Oliver de Tracy xvii l x s" in Devonshire in [1167/68][80]. The same source records enfeoffments in the duchy of Normandy in [1172], "Oliverus de Tracieio" with one knight "de vicecomitatu de Cerenciis" and four knights in his own service[81]. The 1176/77 Pipe Roll names "Oliverus de Traci…pro parte sua de honore de Berdestapl" in Devonshire[82]. The 1184/85 Pipe Roll records the sheriff of Devon’s payment “de firma de Boui terra Oliveri de Traci postquam captus fuit”[83]. No details regarding Oliver’s capture have been found, but presumably he was not detained for long as the 1185/86 Pipe Roll records “terre Oliveri de Traci in Deuenescira” unqualified by any capture[84]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1194/95], names "Olyver de Tracy" among those granted delay in payment "per brevia" in Devonshire[85]. The Feet of Fines records an agreement 28 Jan 1196 settling a claim by "Will de Breosa" against "Oliver de Traci" for "medietate honoris de Bordestapl", tracing the alienations made by "predicto Olivero vel Henrico patre suo"[86]. Some details from Reichel’s translation of this document: “...if the said Oliver should have an heir by his espoused wife...born after the term of this concord”, “the wife of the said Oliver should outlive Oliver [she] shall have her dower...the manor of Boui [Bovey Tracy]”, and “...feofments made before the term of this concord...by the aforesaid Oliver or by Henry his father shall be firm & valid [specifying several enfeoffments made both by Henry and by Oliver]...donations made before the end of this concord by the said Oliver or by Henry his father...”[87]. "…Will de Traceio [see below], Oliv de Traceio" both paid rent on land in Normandy, dated 1198[88]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records payments in Devon dated 1199/1200 including "Henricus de Tracy [see below] lm et dimidiam" and “...Oliver[us] de Tracy...” under “Quieti per brevia”[89]. "Oliver de Traci" paid a fine for "heritanda baroñ Willi de Traci" [see below] in Devonshire, dated [1199/1200][90]. The Rotulus Cancellarii records "Oliverus de Traci" owing in Devonshire, dated [27 May 1201/26 May 1202][91]. "Lucia de Moon […terre de Moon]…Will de Traceio…versus Oliv de Traceio" all paid rent in "Ballia Constancien" in Normandy, dated 1203[92]. A document dated 20 Jun 1205 records a hearing between “Oliver de Trasci plaintiff” and “William de Champeaus defendant” relating to the latter’s service of “7 knights which Oliver demands from William for the tenement which he holds of Oliver in...”[93]. His death date is indicated by the 1210/11 Pipe Roll entry cited under his widow, Papin noting that “le délai de viduité après le décès du mari imposait à la veuve...de [se] retirer du marché matrimonial...l’Eglise définit...le droit des veuves à se remarier dans l’année suivant le décès de l’époux”, which suggests that Oliver died [1209/10][94].

[m firstly ---. No primary source has been identified which confirms this supposed first marriage. However, considering the [1196/97] estimated birth date of Oliver’s son Henry (see below), as well as Oliver’s own suggested birth date, it is likely that he had an earlier wife before he married Henry’s mother. As the 28 Jan 1196 document cited above indicates that Oliver was childless at that time, any children born of this supposed earlier marriage presumably died young.]

m [secondly] (before 28 Jan 1196) as her first husband, EVA, daughter of --- (before [1180/82?]-[Godstow?] after [1242/43]). The 28 Jan 1196 document cited above indicates that Oliver was married at the time, without children, so may have married recently. This [second] wife was the mother of Oliver’s son Henry (born [1196/97], see below), while the 1210/11 Pipe Roll cited below confirms that Oliver’s [second] wife was Eva. Her suggested birth “before [1180/82?]” would be consistent with her sister being the mother of King John’s illegitimate son Oliver (follow Eva’s hyperlink for details). Stapleton records that “Oliver, son of Henry de Tracy...survived till 12 Joh. 1211 [=1210/11], when Eva, his relict, wife first of Thomas de Londres, made proffer of 120 marks for assignation of dower and license of marrying at will” (no source citation)[95], confirming that Eva was Oliver’s widow when he died. Eva married secondly ([1210/11?]) Thomas [II] de London. As noted above, Stapleton names Eva as “wife first of Thomas de Londres”. This phrase does not appear in the original source: the 1210/11 Pipe Roll records that “Eva que fuit uxor Oliveri de Traci” made a fine “pro habenda dota sua...de tenemento quod fuit Oliveri viri sui, et pro habendo maritagio suo”, and in a later entry that “Eva que fuit uxor Oliveri de Traci” owed a debt “pro habenda custodia filii sui heredis Oliveri de Traci cum tota terra quam habuit die qua obiit...”[96]. Thomas was therefore Eva’s second husband and Stapleton incorrect.

King Henry III ordered the sheriff of Wiltshire to leave in peace (“in pace esse permittat”) “manerium de Hamedon ita qd Eva de Tracy et Hawis mater Oliveri fratris dni Reg...” (“...habebant inde ronable estuveriu suu sn wasto usq”?), in accordance with a council decision in London 29 Sep, dated 2 Oct 1217[97]. King Henry III ordered the sheriff of Wiltshire to grant “plenam seisinam de terra de Hanedon...q habuit de baillio Com W. Mar rectoris nostri...cui Wills de London eam invadiavit p sexaginta marc”, noting that “terram illam habebat done Eva de Trasey q clamat terram illam e.e dotem suam”, to [Hawise’s son] “Olivero fratri meo” who ”de predictis sexaginta marc satisfecit”, dated 14 Mar 1218[98]. The Testa de Nevill lists landholdings, dated 1219, which include "Eva de Trascey est de donatione domini regis et non est maritata, et valet terra eius in Esgarestona quam tenet de domino rege" in Berkshire "Rotulus eschætarum... in hundredo de Launburn", and in Devonshire "terra sua de Bovy"[99]. King Henry III ordered the sheriff of Berkshire “qd statim visis literis cap in manu dni R totam terram Fulconis fil Warini et Eve de Trascy et sororis sue in bailla sua” for (“pp”) “fil et hede Thom London que dno R detinent qui ee debet in custodia dni R”, dated 10 Jan 1219[100] (mistranslated by the Fine Rolls Project: "take into the king’s hands" the lands of "Fulk fitz Warin and Eva de Tracy and her sister on account of the son [error for daughter] and heir of Thomas de London, who they detain from the king")[101]. King Henry III ordered the sheriff of Devon that, “[si] fil et heres Thom de Lond inventa fuerit in bailla sua” (unless in the custody of the king) or “si abducta fuerit a bailla sua”, he should take “in manu dni R...totam terram Eve de Trascy matris sue in bailla sua”, dated 26 Jan 1219[102]. "Eva de Tracy" paid a fine for "having a weekly market…at her manor of Bovey", dated 23 Oct 1219[103]. An undated document [between documents dated 26 Dec 1219 and 30 Dec 1219] records that “Willus Crassus primogenitus” made a fine to King Henry for “habiendo in uxorem filiam et heredem Thome de Lond”, payment guaranteed by ten named subscribers[104]. King Henry III notified the sheriff of Dorset and Somerset that “Willelmus Crassus” had made a fine for “habienda custodia terre q fuit Thome de London cum maritagio Hawisie filie et heredis ipsius Thome” and ordered him to transfer “eidem Willelmo omnibus terris...q fuerunt ipsius Thome in bailla tua plenariam saisinam”, dated 21 Jul 1220[105]. King Henry III ordered the sheriff of Wiltshire to disseise “Eva de Trasey de terra sua q tenuit in dote in Baillia tua”, when he granted “saisina...Willo Crasso seniori de terris q fuerunt Thome de Lond in Bailla tua”, dated 7 Aug 1220[106]. “Reso Crek” was ordered to return “terras...q fuerunt Thome de London” to “Willo Crasso”, to whom the king granted ”custodiam terre q fuit ipsius Thome cum maritagio Hawisie filie et heredis ipsius Thome”, dated 26 May 1221[107]. King Henry III notified the sheriff of Wiltshire that “Eva de Trascy” had made a fine for “transgressione quam fecit erga nos eo qd maritavit Hawisiam filiam suam...sine licencia nostra”, dated 23 Jun 1222[108]. The Pipe Roll 1223 records “Eva de Tracy...quia maritavit Hawisam filiam suam sine licencia R. que fuit de donatione sue” owing in “Nova Oblata” in Devon[109]. “Eva de Tracy” is named in a document dated [1231/32][110]. The Testa de Nevill lists "Feuda Fulconis Filii Warini" in Wiltshire which include "Eva de Bassingeburn [see below] tenet in Westbur dimidium feudum i militis de Eva de Tracy, et ipsa de dicto Fulcone, et Fulco de rege in capite", dated to [1242/43][111]. An undated document records the request for “nobili matrona, domina Eva de Tracy” to stay at Godstow nunnery[112]. Some background to Eva’s earlier life is provided by inquisitions dated 5 Jan 1253 which record that “the manor of Bovy never paid sheriff’s aid in the time of Oliver de Tracy, father of the said Henry...[who] fell into the custody of King John and Eva his mother had her dower of the said money, and she dwelling in distant parts allowed her bailiffs to pay sometimes more, sometimes less...”[113].

Oliver & his second wife had [two] children:

1. HENRY de Tracy ([1196/97]-before 21 Aug 1274). The 28 Jan 1196 document, cited above under his father, indicates that Oliver and his wife had no children at that time. As Henry was presumably considered adult at the time of the Jun 1213 order cited below, he was probably born soon afterwards, say [1196/97]. His parentage is confirmed by the 5 Jan 1253 inquisitions cited below. King John notified the sheriff of Devon that he had returned “Barnestapel et Tavistok et totum honorem de Barnestapel...parte illam qm Wills de Braos tenuit qm alia qm Oliver de Trascy tenuit” to “Henry de Trascy”, dated Jun 1213[114]. An undated charter confirms that "domini Henrici de Tracy" requested a daily mass at Pilton St James, for the souls of "Henrici de Traci avi sui et Oliveri patris sui et Hawysiæ avæ suæ"[115]. "Henr de Trascy" is named among the guarantors for a pledge of "Roberti de Ferariis" for a fine for "hnda fil Willelmi de Boclaund cum hereditate sua", dated [Oct] 1216[116]. A document dated 12 Mar 1219 records a hearing between “Cecily, daughter of Arthur de Winton, plaintiff” and “Henry de Tracy, opponent” relating to rent held from the latter “in which they were accustomed to render that rent to Oliver de Tracy, father of the said Henry...”[117]. An order dated 2 Apr 1219 records "Henry de Tracy" repaying part of a debt[118]. The Pipe Roll 1223 includes land of “Henricus de Tracy...de dimidio feodo quod est in manu R. de feodis Oliveri de Tracy” in Devon[119]. A document dated 30 Jun 1228 records a hearing between “Philip Le Bealde, claimant” and “Henry de Tracy & Matilda his wife, opponents” relating to land in “Fislega”[120]. Inquisitions dated 5 Jan 1253 record that “the manor of Bovy never paid sheriff’s aid in the time of Oliver de Tracy, father of the said Henry...[who] fell into the custody of King John and Eva his mother had her dower of the said money, and she dwelling in distant parts allowed her bailiffs to pay sometimes more, sometimes less...”[121]. Inquisitions after a writ dated 21 Aug "2 Edw I" following the death of "Henry de Tracy" name “Maud daughter of his daughter whom Geoffrey de Caunville lately took to wife aged 31 at Christmas in the said year is his next heir”, adding that “he had a daughter Eva married to Guy de Bryane from whom was born Maud whom Geoffrey de Caunvile lately married”, and list the deceased’s properties in Barnstaple and numerous other places in Devonshire[122]. m (before 30 Jun 1228) MATILDA, daughter of ---. A document dated 30 Jun 1228 records a hearing between “Philip Le Bealde, claimant” and “Henry de Tracy & Matilda his wife, opponents” relating to land in “Fislega”[123]. Drake, in a short Braose pedigree, records that “Loretta countess of Leicester” [daughter of William [III] de Briouse] granted “the manor and advowson of Tawstock, co. Devon” to “her niece Matilda and the heirs of her body”, citing a writ dated 1391 and adding that the same document confirms that William [IV] de Briouse was the grantor’s brother[124]. Drake also states that Matilda, the grantee, married “Henry de Tracy Lord of Barnstaple, ob. 2 Edw I (1273-4)”, but does not cite the primary source which confirms that her parentage is correct. However, he does record that the manor of Tawstock (presumably Tavistock) was later held by the second husband of Matilda, daughter of Eva de Tracy and heir of Henry de Tracy according to the inquisitions quoted above. From a chronological point of view, Drake’s indication appears possible. If it is correct, Henry’s wife was MATILDA [de Briouse], daughter of WILLIAM [IV] de Briouse & his wife Matilda ---. Henry & his wife had two children:

a) EVA de Tracy (-before 21 Aug 1274). Inquisitions after a writ dated 21 Aug "2 Edw I" following the death of "Henry de Tracy" name “Maud daughter of his daughter whom Geoffrey de Caunville lately took to wife aged 31 at Christmas in the said year is his next heir”, adding that “he had a daughter Eva married to Guy de Bryane from whom was born Maud whom Geoffrey de Caunvile lately married”[125]. m GUY de Brian of Laugharne, co. Carmarthen, son of --- (-1307).

b) HENRY de Tracy ([May] [1237/38]-before 1274). A writ dated 10 Jan "33 Hen III", after the death of "Gunnora de la Mare" names "Henry, son of Henry Tracy her uncle, aged 13 at Whitsunday, 35 Hen III, and a son of Henry de la Mare, whose name is unknown, aged 15, are variously stated to be her heir" and "Elveiscot alias Elfeiscot, Alfiscot [Oxford]…Winterburne [Wiltshire]"[126].

2. [EVA [de Tracy] (-after [1242/43]). Papin records her parentage (no source cited)[127]. The Testa de Nevill lists "Feuda Fulconis Filii Warini" in Wiltshire which includes "Eva de Bassingeburn tenet in Westbur dimidium feudum i militis de Eva de Tracy, et ipsa de dicto Fulcone, et Fulco de rege in capite", dated to [1242/43][128]. The primary source which confirms her parentage more precisely has not been identified, although her family origin and marriage are indicated by the folloing document: “Paganus de Cadurcis filius et hæres dominæ Hawisiæ de Londonia” donated land to Whiteland, Carmarthenshire, for the souls of “dominorum Thomæ de Londonia, Patricii de Cadurcis, Will. et Mauricii de Londonia, Warini de Bassingburne [presumably Eva’s husband], dominæ Evæ de Tracy, Aleys et Gundre defunctorum”, by charter dated May 1270[129]. The primary sources which confirm Warin’s parentage, the date of his marriage, and his date of death have not been identified. m WARIN de Bassingbourn, son of ---.]

1. FARAMUS de Tracy (-after 4 Jan 1219). "Farramus de Tracy" paid a fine "for having a pone" in a claim against "Ralph de Satchville" relating to land "in Broad Clyst" in Devonshire, dated 4 Jan 1219[130].

[Three] siblings, parents not identified. The chronology suggests that they could have been children of Turgise [I] de Tracy. Alternatively, William shown below could have been the same person as William de Tracy, shown above as the possible son of William de Tracy and his wife Rohese.

1. WILLIAM de Tracy (-[1172/1200]). Lord of the barony of Bradnich, Devon[131]. Henry II King of England confirmed the property of the abbey of Saint-Martin de Troarn, including donations by "…Willelmi de Traceio…" of "molendinum de Trebuchet et decimum molendinorum suorum de Sancto Vigore", by charter dated to [1155/57][132]. A charter dated to [1154/87] records that “W[illiam] de Traceio" built a house for lepers "at Coismas” but assigned its revenues to "Alan the clerk brother to the said W[illiam]"[133]. Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record that "Willelmus de Tracy" held one knight’s fee from the bishop of Exeter in Devon[134]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Willelmus de Tracy xvii l x s" in Devonshire in [1167/68][135]. "…Willelmo de Traci…Ricardo Britone" subscribed the charter dated 1168 under which Henry II King of England confirmed the property "in manerio de Hinton" of "Roberto de Basoges" granted to him by "comes Conanus"[136]. He was one of the murderers of Thomas Becket Archbishop of Canterbury. Ralph de Diceto’s Ymagines Historiarum record that “Willelmus de Traci, Reginaldus filius Ursi, Hugo de Morevilla, Ricardus Brito” murdered the archbishop at Canterbury in 1171 and relate the subsequent events in detail[137]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "militum…Richardus Brito, Hugo de Morevilla, Renaldus Ursus et Guillelmus de Traci" as the murderers of Thomas Archbishop of Canterbury[138]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records enfeoffments in the duchy of Normandy in [1172], "Willelmus de Traceio" with one knight "de baillia de Basseis" and five knights in his own service[139]. "Hugo de Corterua" confirmed the donation made by "dominus Willermus de Traci avunculus meus", before the murder of the archbishop of Canterbury, to "Alano de Traci clerico" by charter dated to [1180], witnessed by "Olivero de Traci…"[140]. "Willelmus de Pyreu" paid a fine for the lands of "terra Willelmi de Tracy sic id Will eam habuit die que obiit", at "Constanc’ et Vire", dated 1200[141]. Stapleton records that "a copy of the Roll of Infeudations subsequent to the separation of Normandy" confirms that the land in question was the same as that held by Turgise de Tracy, specifying that after "Turgisus de Traceyo…Guillelmus de Pirou habet"[142]. "Oliver de Traci" paid a fine for "heritanda baroñ Willi de Traci" in Devonshire, dated [1199/1200][143]. A writ dated 10 Nov "3 Edw I" into the manor of Morton records that "William de Tracy, who held the barony of Braneys and Morton of the king in chief, took part in the martyrdom of St Thomas of Canterbury, for which deed he went into exile and the barony became escheat of King Henry [II]"[144]. m ---. The name of William’s wife is not known. William & his wife had [two] children:

a) [TURGISE [II] de Tracy (-after [1172]). The Red Book of the Exchequer records enfeoffments in the duchy of Normandy in [1172], "Turgillus de Traceio ii milites et ad servitium suum viii milites" in the fief of Mortain[145].]

"Joselinus de Pomerei" donated property to Ford abbey, Devonshire, for the souls of "…domini fratris mei Hen de Pomerei", by undated charter (maybe dated to after 1200, when William father of Henry de Tracy died) witnessed by "…Willielmo de Tracy fratre Hugonis de Courtenay, Henrico filio Willielmi de Tracy"[146]. A writ dated 10 Nov "3 Edw I" into the manor of Morton [Devon] records that "William de Tracy, who held the barony of Braneys and Morton of the king in chief, took part in the martyrdom of St Thomas of Canterbury, for which deed he went into exile and the barony became escheat of King Henry [II]" and adds that "the same William had a son Henry de Tracy the hunchback (le Bozu) born in Normandy, who long after came to Geoffrey son of Peter, chief justice of England…[to recover] his inheritance, and for so doing he gave him the said manor of Morton"[147]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records payments in Devon dated 1199/1200 including "Henricus de Tracy lm et dimidiam" and “...Oliver[us] de Tracy..[see above].” under “Quieti per brevia”[148]. King John confirmed the donation of "manerio de Morton" by "Henri fil Will de Tracy" to "G. fil Pet com Essex" by charter dated 20 Jun 1200[149]. A similar donation was made 4 Nov 1200 by "Hug de Curtenay"[150]. The suggestion that Henry died before this last date appears supported by "Oliver de Traci", as noted above, paying a fine for "heritanda baroñ Willi de Traci" in Devonshire, dated [1199/1200][151].

2. ALAN de Tracy (-after [1180]). A charter dated to [1154/87] records that “W[illiam] de Traceio" built a house for lepers "at Coismas” but assigned its revenues to "Alan the clerk brother to the said W[illiam]"[152].

Nicholas Vincent suggests that "Courtenay" represents a misreading for "Couterne" in the various sources quoted in this section[155]. Gervais & his wife had two children:

a) HUGH de Couterne (-after May 1201). "Hugo de Corterua" confirmed the donation made by "dominus Willermus de Traci avunculus meus", before the murder of the archbishop of Canterbury, to "Alano de Traci clerico" by charter dated to [1180], witnessed by "Olivero de Traci…"[156]. "Hugo de Curterne" owed a fee "de scutagio Willelmi de Traci" in Devonshire in 1194[157]. King John confirmed the donation of "manerio de Morton" by "Henri fil Will de Tracy" to "G. fil Pet com Essex" by charter dated 20 Jun 1200[158]. A similar donation was made 4 Nov 1200 by "Hug de Curtenay"[159]. The Rotulus Cancellarii records "Hug de Curtene" owing in Devonshire, dated [27 May 1201/26 May 1202][160].

The Rotulus Cancellarii records "Willelmus de Traci" owing in Devonshire, dated [27 May 1201/26 May 1202][166]. "Lucia de Moon […terre de Moon]…Will de Traceio…versus Oliv de Traceio" all paid rent in "Ballia Constancien" in Normandy, dated 1203[167]. m ---. The name of William’s wife is not known. William & his wife had one child:

i) HENRY de Tracy . Stapleton records that "Henry de Traci, son of William de Traci" donated "land of Cnutesbury…Leoford…and all the right in the land of Cliftwich which had been the marriage portion of his mother" to the church of St Mary of Ford, undated[168].

B. TRACY of TODDINGTON, GLOUCESTERSHIRE

WILLIAM de Tracy of Toddington, Gloucestershire, son of JOHN de Sudeley Lord of Sudely Castle & his wife Grace de Tracy (-after [1192]). "Willelmus de Traceio" confirmed the donation of "Thanewordam villam meam" {Yaneworthe} to Gloucester St Peter made by "Radulfus de Suthleia frater meus", and with the consent of "Radulfo fratre meo", by undated charter, witnessed by "Henricus de Traceio…"[169]. Frank Barlow comments that "William [de Tracy], the second son of John de Sudeley", whom he identifies as one of the murderers of Thomas Becket Archbishop of Canterbury, "chose to take his name from the family of his mother, Grace daughter and heir of William (I) de Tracy, lord of Bradninch in Devon and illegitimate son of King Henry I"[170]. Professor Nicholas Vincent argues convincingly that William de Tracy of Toddington could not have been the same person as the murderer William de Tracy (shown in Part A of the present chapter), highlighting that the former is named in sources after the banishment of the latter[171]. "William de Tracy of Toddington…with his son Henry" witnessed a charter, dated to [1171/75], which records a donation to Winchcombe abbey[172]. Henry II King of England confirmed donations to the abbey of Saint-Lo, Coutances, including “the gift of William de Tracy the tithe of his mills of Humeel", by charter dated to [1184/87][173].

The Fine Rolls record the homage of “Robti Tresgoz fil et hered Sybil de Ewyas” 1 Jul 1236[206]. “Robert Tregoz the younger” donated “the whole fosse which is between the land which belonged to Walter de Welynton and the water which is called Duneleis” to Ewias Priory by charter dated to [1235/65] witnessed by “William my brother...”[207]. m (before 1 Aug 1245) JULIANE de Cauntelo, daughter of WILLIAM de Cauntelo & his wife Melisende de Gournay (-after 1282). “Richard de Ewias son of John de Ewias” granted certain rents in Foy to “Juliana de Tregoz widow of Robert de Tregoz” by charter dated to [1265/85][208]. "Dame Julian Tresgoze…espouse…a Sr Robert Tresgoos le Second" wrote to "son frère St Thomas de Cantlow, Euesque…de Hereford" and names her son "John Tresgoos" married "la reyne Blanch" [widow of Louis VIII King of France, such a second marriage being impossible chronologically] and had "un fils…Hugh…nostre ayle", who married "la soer le count Renaud de Boloyng", whose daughter "Milsent nostre mere" married "a Count de Euoyse en Normandy" by whom she had one son and one daughter, before marrying "Will de Cantelow nostre pere"[209]. Robert [II] & his wife had two children:

i) JOHN de Tresgoz (-before 6 Sep 1300). "Dame Julian Tresgoze…espouse…a Sr Robert Tresgoos le Second" wrote to "son frère St Thomas de Cantlow, Euesque…de Hereford" and names her son "John Tresgoos" married "la reyne Blanch" [widow of Louis VIII King of France, such a second marriage being impossible chronologically] and had "un fils…Hugh…nostre ayle", who married "la soer le count Renaud de Boloyng", whose daughter "Milsent nostre mere" married "a Count de Euoyse en Normandy" by whom she had one son and one daughter, before marrying "Will de Cantelow nostre pere"[210]. He was summoned to parliament in 1297 whereby he is held to have become Lord Tresgoz. A writ dated 6 Sep "28 Edw I", after the death of "John Tregoz alias de Tregoz", names "John la Warre his grandson (nepos) […aged 24, son of Clarice la Warre his eldest daughter who is dead…married to Roger la War] and Sibyl the wife of William de Grauntcoun (alias de Grandissono) his […younger] daughter […aged 30 and more] both aged 21 and more are his next heirs"[211]. m firstly as her second husband, MABEL, widow of WILLIAM de Crèvecœur, daughter of FULK [IV] FitzWarin & his [first/second] wife [--- de Clifford/Constance de Tosny] (-before 24 May 1297). "Dame Julian Tresgoze…espouse…a Sr Robert Tresgoos le Second" records that her son "John Tresgoos" married "Mabill file a noble…chevalier Foulk Fitz-Warren qui avoit a feme le soer Sr Rog de Clifford"[212]. It is suggested that the last reference to Mabel’s mother as a member of the Clifford family represents an error. If it is correct, John de Tresgoz and his wife would have been very closely related, presumably first cousins, as Roger [II] de Clifford and John de Tresgoz’s father were uterine brothers. From a chronological point of view, it is likely that Mabel was the daughter of Fulk FitzWarin [IV], whose recorded wife was Constance de Tosny, although it is possible that she was born from an otherwise unrecorded earlier marriage to a member of the Clifford family. A writ dated 24 May "25 Edw I", after the death of "Mabel late the wife of John Tregoz", records in relation to Weston that it was "held in free marriage of the barony of Averenchis…[by] Maud daughter of and heir of William de Averenchis the elder…Hamo le Creveker married her and they gave the manor to William their son and heir in free marriage with the said Mabel. This William died without heir of his body", names as heirs of "[the said Maud] Juliana daughter of John son of Agnes one of the daughters of the said Hamo and Maud aged 23 and more, John de Lenham son of Iseut the second of the daughters of the said Hamo and Maud aged 60 and more"[213]. m secondly as her first husband, JOAN de Cokefield, daughter of ADAM de Cokefield of Feltwell, Norfolk and Moulton, Suffolk & his wife Joan --- (-before 7 Apr 1354).

He was summoned to parliament in 1299 whereby he is held to have become Lord La Warre.

"Dame Julian Tresgoze…espouse…a Sr Robert Tresgoos le Second" names "Sibill" as the second daughter of "John Tresgoos" and his wife, adding that she married "Sr Will de Grantson chivaller de Burgon"[216]. A writ dated 6 Sep "28 Edw I", after the death of "John Tregoz alias de Tregoz", names "John la Warre his grandson (nepos) […aged 24, son of Clarice la Warre his eldest daughter who is dead…married to Roger la War] and Sibyl the wife of William de Grauntcoun (alias de Grandissono) his […younger] daughter […aged 30 and more] both aged 21 and more are his next heirs"[217]. m ([1285]) as his second wife, GUILLAUME de Grandson, son of PIERRE Seigneur de Grandson & his wife Agnes de Neuchâtel (-27 Jun 1335). He was summoned to the English parliament from 1299 whereby he is held to have become Lord Grandson [Grandison][218].

ii) --- de Tresgoz . His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated to [1265/1300] under which [his son] “John Tregoz” donated “a certain road leading from my garden, which I had from John Tregoz my uncle, to the Street which is called Vriogis-strete” to Ewias Priory[219]. m ---. One child:

b) JOHN de Tresgoz (-before 1235). Bannister names John as second son of Robert [I] de Tresgoz, adding that he died before 1235, but does not cite the primary source on which this information is based[221].

It is possible that Eudes had been disinherited by his father but was still alive.

b) [MATILDA . No primary source has been identified which confirms that Matilda was the daughter of Theobald de Valoignes. However, the following charter indicates close connections between the Walter, Valoignes and Glanville families which appear best explained if Matilda was the sister of Bertha, wife of Ranulf de Glanville. “Herveus Walterus” donated “feodum meum in Wyngefeild...in Sikebroc...in Istede...” to Butley priory, Suffolk, for the souls of “meæ et Matildis sponsæ meæ et filiorum nostrorum...Ranulfi de Glanvil et Bertæ sponsæ et filiorum suorum”, by undated charter, witnessed by “Willielmo de Albervilla, Willielmo de Valoniis, Roberto de Valoniis...Willelmo de Glanvilla clerico et filiis meis Huberto, Waltero et Rogero et Hamone”[298].] m HERVE Walter, son of ---.

Assuming that the hypothesis is correct, as explained above, that Matilda wife of Hervé Walter was the daughter of Theobald de Valoignes, William and Robert de Valoignes who are shown below must have been closely connected with the same family given that they are named together in the same documents.

Bracton records an inquiry, dated 1234/35, whether "Cristiana de Mandevilla soror Walteri filii Roberti" was seised of part of land "in Dersingham", which descended to her "ex parte Gunnore matris sue" and was inherited by "Henricus de Bailloil et Lora uxor eius" because "idem Walterus non fuit frater predicte Cristiane nisi ex parte patris", noting that "tres fratres fuerunt…Petrus, Robertus, Philippus ex parte patris et matris", that Robert was father of "Gunora mater predicte Cristiane"[342]. m HAWISE, daughter of ---. “Robertus de Valoniis” confirmed donations to Binham monastery by “Petrus de Valoniis avus meus et Rogerus pater meus et Petrus de Valoniis frater meus et domina Agnes mater mea”, with the advice of "dominæ Agnetis matris meæ et Hadæwisæ uxoris meæ", by undated charter[343]. “Robertus de Valoniis” donated “jus advocacionis ecclesie de Westeleya” to Binham priory, for the salvation of “mea et Athenize uxoris mee et Gunore filie mee”, by undated charter[344].

Round suggests that "filia eius" in this passage is an error for "neptis eius", as Gunnor was the senior heiress of her grandmother as only daughter of the latter’s second surviving son, and pointing out that "Durandus de Osteilli" paid scutage in Essex/Hertfordshire of £15/3/4 in the Pipe Roll 1190, equivalent to the 30 and one third knights’ fees on which the barony of Valoignes paid had paid in 1166, and on which "Gunnore de Valoniis" paid in 1194[348].

Bracton records an inquiry, dated 1234/35, whether "Cristiana de Mandevilla soror Walteri filii Roberti" was seised of part of land "in Dersingham", which descended to her "ex parte Gunnore matris sue" and was inherited by "Henricus de Bailloil et Lora uxor eius" because "idem Walterus non fuit frater predicte Cristiane nisi ex parte patris", noting that "tres fratres fuerunt…Petrus, Robertus, Philippus ex parte patris et matris", that Philip went to Scotland and was there father of "Willelmum de Valoynes qui fuit heres suus et de quo exierunt uxores predictorum Henrici et aliorum"[370]. “Petrus de Valoniis” confirmed donations to Binham monastery by “Petrus…de Valoniis avus meus et…pater meus Rogerus”, by undated charter dated to after 1154, witnessed by "Agnes de Valoniis, Robertus et Gaufredus et Rogerus et Johannes et Philippus de Valoniis…"[371].

The name of Philip’s first wife is not known. [m secondly ---. This second marriage is indicated by the chronology of the life of his daughter Sibylla, which suggests that she was much younger than her brother William. One possibility is that this second wife was --- de Quincy, daughter of Saher de Quincy Earl of Winchester & his wife Margaret of Leicester. This is suggested by the order dated 3 Feb 1223 under which King Henry III delivered "to Roger de Quency...the ward of the land of Sibilla de Valeines in Torpenno...the custody of which pertains to Roger by reason of Eustace de Stuteville, son and heir of said Sibilla, being in ward of Roger”[379]. Roger de Quincy Earl of Winchester was the brother of the wife of William de Valoignes, older brother of Sibylla. However, that relationship would not have justified his wardship of Sibylla’s minor son after she died.
