It derives from the researches of the 19th-century Swiss historian Louis de Charrière, who postulated that Ebal III de Grandson could not have lived much beyond 1177; and that the Ebal de Grandson who appears in documents subsequent to that date must therefore be Ebal III's sole son and heir, Ebal IV. Charrière's conclusions were rejected by the Swiss historian and genealogist Olivier Dessemontet in the mid-20th century, who argued that there is no certain evidence for the existence of an Ebal IV, and that Charrière's particular interpretation of a <em>laudatio parentum</em> clause in a 12th century text was unsound. Since then contemporary scholarship has remained silent on the matter, seemingly accepting Charrière's opinion without reservation or further investigation. This paper sets out the results of a detailed examination of the relevant sources and the secondary literature, in which all the evidence is reviewed and critically assessed. An analysis of charter evidence permits a new familial chronology to be developed, which enables a more realistic dating of the lifespans of Ebal III and his immediate forebears and descendants than hitherto. This, in turn, calls into question previous presumptions and preconceived notions about relationships within the Grandson dynasty of the 12th and 13th centuries. Evidence is presented as to the relevance, application, and effect of the <em>laudatio parentum</em> in contemporary documents; demonstrating that the particular interpretation of the textual evidence offered by Charrière in support of his hypothesis is questionable and open to serious challenge. However, no evidence has been found which proves the parentage or ancestry of an Ebal IV de Grandson, and it seems highly likely that Ebal III and Ebal IV are one and the same person. Charrière's interpolation of an Ebal IV in the Grandson genealogy should therefore be regarded as unsafe. A certain lord of Grandson of the same period is the subject of a popular legend making him a near centenarian. Previously identified as Ebal IV de Grandson, an analysis of the original story shows that this legendary figure was very probably the famous <em>chevalier</em> Othon I de Grandson.</p> <p><em>Foundations (2021) <strong>13</strong>: 2–43                                  <span class="pull-right">© Copyright FMG and the author</span></em></p> <p class="readmore"><a class="btn" href="/fr/login?return=L2ZyL3B1YmxpY2F0aW9ucy9qb3VybmFsL3ZvbC0xMy82NzktZm5kLTEzLTAz" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Access to full articles is restricted to members"> <span class="icon-chevron-right"></span> Veuillez vous identifier ou vous inscrire pour lire la suite... </a></p> </div> </div> <div class="item leading-1"> <div class="icons"> <div class="btn-group pull-right"> <button class="btn dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenuButton-676" aria-label="Outils utilisateur" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"> <span class="icon-cog" aria-hidden="true"></span> <span class="caret" aria-hidden="true"></span> </button> <ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton-676"> <li class="print-icon"> <a href="/fr/publications/journal/vol-13/676-fnd-13-08?tmpl=component&print=1&layout=default" title="Imprimer l'article < Origins of the Anglo-Norman family of William and Hamo de Sancto Claro >" onclick="window.open(this.href,'win2','status=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,titlebar=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes,width=640,height=480,directories=no,location=no'); return false;" rel="nofollow"> <span class="icon-print" aria-hidden="true"></span> Imprimer </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <a href="/fr/publications/journal/vol-13/676-fnd-13-08"> </a> <div class="page-header"> <h2 itemprop="name"> <a href="/fr/publications/journal/vol-13/676-fnd-13-08" itemprop="url"> Origins of the Anglo-Norman family of William and Hamo de Sancto Claro </a> </h2> </div> <button class="toggle">View Abstract</button> <div class="abstract"> <h1>Origins of the Anglo-Norman family of William and Hamo de Sancto Claro</h1> <p><em>by <strong>Robert W Goff</strong><sup> <a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><strong><sup>[1]</sup></strong></a></sup></em></p> <h3>Abstract</h3> <p>Evidence is presented that the antecessor of the Anglo-Norman family of William and Hamo de Sancto Claro was Hubert de Sancto Claro, Domesday Book tenant of Robert of Mortain in Dorset, Somerset and Sussex.

This constituted the documentary strand of the Project, which was designed both to provide a learning experience for postgraduate students and to create a major resource of genealogical and heraldic information. Based on this information the research results for five lesser known signatories and their families are included here.</p> <p>The genetic genealogy strand of the Project aimed to develop the potential of DNA testing as a means of discovering unknown early descents.  The value of this approach was illustrated through reaching significant conclusions on the identification of distinct genetic markers for descents from historical individuals of the medieval period. In this article we look at some of the results of this process, describe methodologies used and look forward to planned future areas of research.</p> <p><em>Foundations (2021) 13: 56-78                               <span class="pull-right"> © Copyright FMG and the authors</span></em></p> <p class="readmore"><a class="btn" href="/fr/login?return=L2ZyL3B1YmxpY2F0aW9ucy9qb3VybmFsL3ZvbC0xMy82ODItZm5kLTEzLTEw" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Access to full articles is restricted to members"> <span class="icon-chevron-right"></span> Veuillez vous identifier ou vous inscrire pour lire la suite... </a></p> </div> </div> <div class="item leading-5"> <div class="icons"> <div class="btn-group pull-right"> <button class="btn dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenuButton-683" aria-label="Outils utilisateur" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"> <span class="icon-cog" aria-hidden="true"></span> <span class="caret" aria-hidden="true"></span> </button> <ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton-683"> <li class="print-icon"> <a href="/fr/publications/journal/vol-13/683-fnd-13-02?tmpl=component&print=1&layout=default" title="Imprimer l'article < The Kin-Based Succession of the de Moravia Earls of Sutherland >" onclick="window.open(this.href,'win2','status=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,titlebar=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes,width=640,height=480,directories=no,location=no');
