This is proven by a number of contemporary records, but especially a pedigree extracted from a 1225 curia regis roll.</p> <p>Secondly Henry's second wife was called Matilda and after his death she went on to marry William Cantilupe.

Henry II d'Oilly's heir in 1232 was Thomas, earl of Warwick, Margery's grandson, not Margery herself.

Joan was married first to Guy de Ryhale (also known as Guy fitz Payn and Guy de Cahaines) who gave permission to Ralph the hermit to found a chapel and build a hermitage in Muswell (part of the fee of Piddington), which was later granted to the abbey of Missenden, Bucks. By Guy she had a son and heir, Thomas (DD 661, 662). She married secondly Simon de Gerardmoulin who confirmed the grant around 1152/3. There is some suggestion that she married thirdly Alberic de Dammartin, from the 15th-century MS copy of a surrender made ca. 1160 of all rights claimed at Piddington by Missenden abbey to St Frideswide's under the gift of Alberic, count of Dammartin & his wife Joan. However the documents of the earlier gift refer to 'Albrici Comitis de Damartyn & Iohane de Pidingtona, que fuit sponsa Guidonis de Riala', which may not necessarily mean the two individuals were married, but gave their interests separately.</p> <p><strong> Barrow (1960)</strong>, p.250; <strong> Wigram (1895)</strong>, p.96; <strong> Jenkins (1962)</strong>, p.67</p> <p><i>Peter Stewart, Rosie Bevan </i></p> <hr /> <p><strong><a name="p.652 De Quency, Robert"></a>p.652 De Quency, Robert</strong></p> <p>"<i>Son of Saher I de Quency and Matilda de Senlis.

Both Juliana and Gundred survived him.</p> <p>In addition, the two sources agree that Juliana also married Walchelin Maminot. Where they disagree is as to the order of her marriages. <i><strong> DD</strong></i>, pp. 762, 1027 says that Juliana married firstly Walchelin and secondly Hugh, and dates Walchelin's death to c. 1145/57. That would imply that she married Hugh Bigod in about 1145 at the earliest.</p> <p><i><strong> CP</strong></i>, <strong>9</strong>: 585 says that she married Walchelin secondly, and that he was dead by 1182, citing a gift by her for the souls of her father and mother and of her husbands Hugh Bigoth and Walkelin Maminot (in that order), dated between 1147 and 1182.</p> <p>One detail in the <i><strong> CP</strong></i> account suggests it is right in marrying her first to Hugh, then to Walchelin. Part of the evidence for the identity of Gundred, Hugh's second wife, is that five churches, including that of Holy Cross, Bungay, were part of her maritagium, that Bungay was later held by the Earls of Norfolk of the Earls of Warwick, and that it had earlier been received by the Earl of Warwick in exchange from the Earl of Leicester [<i><strong>CP</strong></i>, <strong>9</strong>: 585, note e (continuation on p.586)].</p> <p>Earlier, <i><strong> CP</strong></i> says [<strong>9</strong>: 581] that after Hugh's rebellion in 1140, the king marched against him and took Bungay Castle. If Bungay Castle was also part of Gundred's maritagium, that would place Hugh's marriage to her in or before 1140. Clearly, his marriage to Juliana must have been even earlier, and before the date given by Keats-Rohan for Walchelin's death. So she could not have married Hugh as Walchelin's widow.</p> <p>This chronology seems reasonable, as Juliana's son Roger Bigod was active by 1163/4, when he attended the Council of Clarendon [<i><strong>CP</strong></i>, <strong>9</strong>: 586, 587]. On the other hand, <i><strong> CP</strong></i> [<strong>9</strong>: 579] places Hugh Bigod's birth at perhaps c.1095 (and in any case he must have been born by 1107 when his father died). That would make a first marriage after about 1145 extremely late.</p> <p><i>Chris Phillips </i></p> <hr /> <p><strong> <a name="p.773 de Walterville, Gaufrid"></a>p.773 de Walterville, Gaufrid</strong></p> <p><i> “He married Ascelina, youngest sister and coheiress of Payn Peverel of Bourn…”</i></p> <p>Ascelina was the youngest daughter of Payn Peverel, and youngest sister of William Peverel – see p.1065</p> <p class="Author"><em>Gordon Kirkemo</em></p> <hr /> <p><strong><a name="p.777 de Warenne, Gundreda"></a>p.777 de Warenne, Gundreda</strong></p> <p>"<i>Daughter of William II de Warenne.

Before Henry of Essex, who held the Constableship for a time until 1163, it was in the hands of Robertus fitz Bernard de Vere who had married Adeliza de Montfort. She was the sister of Robert II de Montfort who held the English de Montfort lands. Some of these lands were granted to the Monks of Horton Priory, near Ashford Kent. A charter, issued by Robertus de Vere, dated circa AD 1140-44, was witnessed by Roberto de Well and <i>Willelmo filio Normanni, Ricardo de Well filio Roberti et Willelmo fratre</i>. At some time after the death of Adeliza 1142 - 52 Henry of Essex assumed the Constableship. Ricardo de Welle attested one of his charters.</p> <p>We know that by 1195 a Robert de Welles was appearing before the Curia Regis in connection with a claim for land he had inherited and that his father was Gervaise de Welles. The complainants in the suit alleged that the land, which their family had owned since the Conquest was taken by Henry of Essex and given to Gervaise de Welles. At the same time (1194) the pipe roll for that year contained an entry for the <i>tallagium de Honoris de Haganet</i> in which <i>Robertus de Welles et Willelmus de Essetford debent scutagio militem eius dem honoris. Set requirendi sunt in Kent</i>. The Red Book of the Exchequer (p.613) contained a list of the wardens of Dover Castle for 1211-12, including Essetford, Welles and Gervaise de Welles. One other, Hudo de Chandos, had been alive in 1140, which demonstrated that not all those listed were contemporaries. There is every reason, therefore, to conclude that Gervaise de Welles likewise was alive earlier, between 1152 and 1163, though which Robert he preceded (if they were not the same person, as between the one who witnessed the de Ver charter, and the one who appeared before the King`s court), is uncertain.</p> <p>The <i>Dictionnaire Topographique du Departement de Seine-Maritime</i> (1982), p.1057 contains an entry for Veules-les-Roses (com.can.

The relationship is established by the fact that Henry II's charter giving the stewardship of Bury to William his dispencer is very specific in its description of the relationships between William and his predecessors in the office. William's immediate predecessor was his paternal uncle ('patruus') Ralph I of Hastings, a son of Robert fitz Walter; Ralph of Hastings had inherited the office from his maternal uncle ('avunculus') Maurice of Windsor (his mother's brother who had probably derived his right through his wife Edith).</strong> Robert was dead by 1128, when Henry I notified his men that he had rendered the lands of Robert fitz Walter de Windsor to his son William (Cal. Charter Rolls ii, p. 137). It was perhaps his wife who brought the name of Hastings to their descendants. She may soon have remarried to Hugh de Waterville, who accounted for his wife's dower in Bilstone, in the fief of Walter the Deacon, in 1129/30. Father of William fitz Robert, alias de Hastings, Ralph I and Richard de Hastings, Alice de Hastings, Emma de Hastings, wife of Walter de Excestre; probably also father of Robert de Windresor who atttested several Wix and Bacton charters c. 1130-55.</em></p> <p>This entry assumes Robert married a daughter of Walter fitz Other to explain the surname de Windsor. This results in false conclusions over the identity of Ralph the dapifer, whom Keats Rohan assumes to be of the family of Little Easton. In fact the charter of Henry II relates to the other Hastings family, dapifer of St Edmunds.</p> <hr /> <p><a name="Hastings of Little Easton"></a></p> <p> </p> <h3><span style="color: #000080;">Hastings of Little Easton</span></h3> <p><em>by </em><span style="color: #000080;"><em>Andrew Lancaster and Rosie Bevan, 2016.</em> <br />With thanks to <em>Chris Phillips</em> for providing unpublished copies of Wix charters.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">The Hastings pedigree given on p. 47 of <em>Domesday Descendants</em> has unfortunately been created by grafting the line of the dapifer Hastings onto that of Little Easton based on the assumption that William fitz Robert was the same individual as William de Hastings, king’s dispenser. That they weren’t the one and same can be shown by the fact that William fitz Robert was dead in 1162, when his son, Robert, succeeded to the family estates, whereas in 1166 William de Hastings, king’s dispenser was alive holding his family estates and died around 1182. Most of the extended pedigree of Hastings of Little Eaton is derived from charters of Wix nunnery. However, to complicate matters Brooke identified 24 of these charters as the work by two forgers in the late 12th century [C N L Brooke, "Episcopal Charters for Wix Priory", 45-64]. Whether the forgeries were made to fill in undocumented gaps, replace destroyed documents, or if they were part of an elaborate scheme to fraudulently claim rights over tenements, is not clear. What does seem genuine, and can be mostly proven from alternative sources, is the genealogy they reveal. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">It is because both Hastings families held land in Purleigh that much of the confusion comes about. Barbara Dodwell unravelled this conundrum, showing how the Isle of ‘Siricheseie’ and tithes of Purleigh held by Edith, presumed daughter of Walter the Deacon, and her husband Maurice de Windsor at the time of their gift to Wix priory were then held of the Bishop of Norwich [B. Dodwell, "Some Charters Relating to the Honour of Bacton", 147-157]. The gift pertained to one of the estates in Purleigh which was originally held by Theodoric as part of his honour of Bacton of 13 knights’ fees, and inherited by his descendant William of Bacton, who because of his indebtedness, arranged that the bishop of Norwich should hold eight knights’ fees until his debt to him was paid. Ultimately William’s uncle, Roger de Valoines, purchased the eight fees by paying off the debt to the bishop, and arranging for the upkeep of William in his own household. The Purleigh holding of Edith and Maurice, which passed to Ralph de Hastings by hereditary right along with the stewardship of St Edmund’s, was evidently regarded as pertinent to the stewardship. At any rate its ‘inheritance’ by Ralph de Hastings was not completely regular, as sometimes occurred in this period.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;"> The most thorough study of this family was published by Clarence Smith in 1966-1968, and while some of it was speculative, the following outline follows his conclusions [J. A. Clarence Smith, "Hastings of Little Easton (part 1)", <em>Transactions of the Essex Archaeological Society.</em> Vol. 2:1, (1966), 1-13; J. A. Clarence Smith, “Hastings of Little Easton (concluded)",<em> Transactions of the Essex Archaeological Society.</em> Vol. 2:2, (1968), 101-122] </span></p> <h4><span style="color: #000080;">Walter the Deacon </span></h4> <p><span style="color: #000080;">The documented descent of the barony of Little Easton is largely reliant on forged Wix charters, but undoubtedly begins with <em>Walter Diaconus</em> or Walter the Deacon, brother of Theodoric, both of whom are recorded in the Domesday Book several times. Walter’s holdings were found to be in Little Easton, Purleigh, Wix, Bromley, Colne, Chesterford, in Essex; Sezincote in Warwickshire; Stretton and Depwade in Norfolk, and Bildeston and Swilland in Suffolk, representing a small barony of 10 knights’ fees. These fees were attached to the castle guard of Windsor, which appears initially to have been a toponym for the family, (and not because the family were descended from Walter fitz Other of Windsor as is sometimes claimed). The name of Walter’s wife is unknown, though Clarence Smith speculates with plausibility that she was a near relation of Queen Edith. Walter had younger sons, who were settled in Wix by his heir, Robert [Francis Palgrave ed. <em>Rotuli Curiae Regis</em> I, 319.]. They were Alexander de Waham (also known as de Wix) and Walter Maskerel with an estate in Wix, of which they gave to Wix nunnery in the time of King Henry I two carucates of land, seven villeins in the village of Wix and the garden and dwelling owned by their father next to the church, as well as 10 shillings worth of land in the vill of Frating. These details appear in a forged confirmation charter of King Stephen stating the gift was made by, “…<em>Walterus Mascherellus et Alexander ejus, petitione Edithe sororis sue…</em>” [<em>RRAN</em> III, 355]. In another forged charter attributed to King Henry II, it is added that their father was Walter <em>decanus</em>, (i.e. the dean, not the deacon), “… <em>Walteri Mascherelli et Alexandri fratri ejus, et Edithae sororis suae, et Walter decani patris eorum</em>…“. [<em>Ancient Deeds</em> A5276; <em>Monasticon Anglicanum</em>, 4:515]. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Confirmation of their paternity cannot be corroborated elsewhere, although the siblings’ relationship to the successive heads of the barony of Little Easton is established from other sources such as the curia regis rolls [C N L Brooke, ‘Episcopal Charters for Wix Priory’, 45-63]. Edith was evidently wife of Maurice de Windsor, as she and her husband gave to the nunnery of Wix as of their inheritance, the isle of <em>Siricheseie</em> and the tithes of their demesne of Purleigh [<em>Ancient Deeds</em> A8923]. Later cases before the curia regis repeat that Alexander de Waham, Walter Maskerel and Edith were siblings. Around 1162 Alexander de Waham granted land he had purchased in Wix called “<em>Horiselle</em>” and “<em>Cokeseie</em>” to Ralph fitz William, who rather confusingly was probably Ralph de Hastings, dapifer of St Edmunds, as ‘<em>Horitel</em>’ (perhaps a mistranscription of <em>Horiselle</em>) was evidently later held by William III de Hastings as above. This notion is supported by the fact the witnesses of the grant were William de Hastings (presumably Ralph the dapifer’s nephew and heir) and Robert de Windsor, undoubtedly Ralph’s kinsman through his mother’s marriage [TNA E40/5266]. </span></p> <h4><span style="color: #000080;">Robert fitz Walter </span></h4> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Walter’s barony passed to his eldest son Robert fitz Walter, who was dead by late 1129 according to an inspection of a series of royal charters from the reigns of Henry I, Henry II and Richard I. These were reproduced in full in the <em>Calendar of Charter Rolls</em>, for an inquiry into the inheritance of barony of Little Easton. The charter of Henry I, dated Christmas 1129, confirmed the lands of Robert fitz Walter de Windsor to William fitz Robert, his heir [<em>CChR</em>, 1257-1300, 137]. Robert’s wife is unknown but by 1129 his widow had probably become wife of Hugh de Walterville who rendered account for her dower in Bildeston [<em>Pipe Roll</em>, 31 Henry I, 96]. </span></p> <h4><span style="color: #000080;">William fitz Robert </span></h4> <p><span style="color: #000080;">As William fitz Robert, Robert’s heir confirmed all the grants made by his uncles Walter Mackerel [sic] and Alexander his brother to Wix nunnery [<em>Ancient Deeds</em>, A5275]. Later he also granted to Walter son of Walter Maskerel the land in Wix, which the elder Walter had held of him. This he did at the request of Richard his brother and Alexander his uncle [L. Landon, “The Barony of Little Easton and the Family of Hastings”, 177 citing TNA E/40/13881]. Keats-Rohan records that William fitz Robert’s wife was Hawise de Guerres. After William’s death around 1161 Hawise married secondly Gilbert de Pinkeny, and thirdly in 1181 another William fitz Robert and was still living in 1219 some 53 years after her first husband’s death, suggesting a later marriage [Book of Fees, 282]. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">According to Landon’s study of the Wix charters, William fitz Robert fathered Robert de Hastings his heir, Ralph, Alexander, John, and Beatrice [Landon, <em>op. cit.</em> 174-179]. Keats Rohan claims there was also a son, William, but none of the references provided, or indeed elsewhere, corroborate this [<em>Domesday Descendants</em>, 506]. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Clarence Smith suggests that William also had three aunts, or daughters by a previous marriage - Alice (wife of George), Agnes, wife of Silvester) and Emma (wife of Walter de Excestre), who witnessed his charter confirming the grants of Alexander de Waham to Wix priory [J. A Clarence Smith, "Hastings of Little Easton (part 1)", <em>Transactions of the Essex Archaeological Society.</em> Vol. 2:1, (1966), 8 citing TNA E40/13780, TNA E40/13883]. An important point to be made here is that as Emma was mother of Ralph de Excestre who married Amabel de Hastings, sister of William II de Hastings, dapifer of St Edmund’s, there could not have been consanguinity between the two families within several generations, owing to canon law of marriage at that time. In 1189 this same Ralph de Excestre appears in a final concord with his kinsman Ralph de Hastings of Wix, quitclaiming a hide in Wix with its appurtenances which probably represented his mother’s marriage portion [<em>Feet of Fines of the Reign of Henry II</em>, 3]. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Ralph de Hastings is evidently the one and same as holding a knight’s fee in Wix of his brother in 1166 as returned in Robert’s Carta, which he’d evidently inherited by 1162 [RBE, 358]. He is solidly placed in the family by his charter to Wix nunnery confirming the gift of Alexander de Waham, uncle of his father, and the gifts of his father William, and grandfather Robert. His charter was witnessed by John his brother, Rector of Bildeston [TNA E/40/13894]. He is also involved in cases before the curia regis. In one, Ralph de Hastings had a writ to summon 12 men to give evidence before the justices to determine if Robert de Hastings his brother had held the custody of half a knight’s fee in Wix, which belonged to Walter Maskerel, with Ralph when he was underage, which land Ralph was claiming against Ralph de Cornhill and Alice his wife who was daughter and heir of Robert de Hastings [<em>CRR</em>, 1196-1201, 61]. In another case Sewal de Oseville, grandson of a sister of Alexander de Waham, sued Ralph de Hastings for half a fee in Wix, which William son of Alexander had once held. Ralph made his brother John his attorney [Francis Palgrave, ed. <em>Rotuli Curia Regis</em>, 318]. Ralph’s heir was his daughter Hawise who was the first wife of the Justiciar, Philip Basset [<em>CIPM</em> I, no.807]. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Alexander’s placement is confirmed by his charter in favour of Wix priory witnessed by Richard de Hastings his uncle and Ralph his brother [TNA E/40/13694]. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Robert de Hastings refers to ‘Lady Beatrice, my sister’ in his charter of gift of land in Westfirth to Wix priory [TNA E/40/13370]. She was married twice - to Gilbert Carbonel, by whom she had an heir William, and secondly to William de Goldingham [TNA E/40/13370; R E G Kirk, <em>Feet of Fines for Essex,</em> 14, 23]. Part of her maritagium had evidently been an eighth part of a knight’s fee in Wix and a manor known as Carbonels was occupied by her descendants for centuries afterwards. </span></p> <h4><span style="color: #000080;">Robert de Hastings </span></h4> <p><span style="color: #000080;">As <em>‘Robert de Hastings de Estanes</em>,’ he made a charter confirming to Wix nunnery the gift of Alexander de Waham, uncle (‘<em>avunculus</em>’) of William his father, and Alicia his wife of her dower of a third part of Alexander’s land in Wix – again affirming the family relationships [British Library. Lansdowne 503 no.26]. The total gift represented the service of 1/6 part of one knight’s fee that the nunnery held of the lord of the fief. Of note Hugh de Flamville (d.1212), Robert’s brother-in-law was the first witness of his charter. Robert’s wife was Maud de Flamville, not Alice as given in the pedigree on DD 47, but as given correctly on <em>DD</em> 506. Maud’s name is known from a charter of Hugh’s to Malton priory, Yorkshire, “…<em>et quam etiam ecclesiam ego ipse concessi et confirmavi praedictae elemosinariae antequam sororem meam Matildem Flamvill Roberto de Hastinges in matrimonium dederam…</em>” [W. Dugdale, <em>Monasticon Anglicanum</em> VI: 972]. Robert died in 1189 leaving his daughter Alice, as heir to the barony of Little Easton as given correctly under <em>DD</em> 506 sub Robert de Hastings. Her first marriage to Ralph de Cornhill was without issue, but by her second marriage to Godfrey de Louvain, brother of the duke of Louvain, she left a son and heir named Matthew. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;"><img alt="Pedigree of Hastings of Little Easton" src="/images/domesday/Pedigree_of_Hastings_of_Little_Easton.jpg" width="1090" height="923" /></span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">See also the article on <a href="/projects/domesday-corrections/descendants-301-600#Hastings" style="color: #000080;">The family of Hastings, the King’s Dispenser and dapifer of St Edmund’s</a></span></p> <h4><span style="color: #000080;">Bibliography </span></h4> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Brooke, C.
