Paget's Baronage (# 138) shows Philip de Columbers (died 1262), of Nether
Stowey married Egeline, daughter of Robert de Courtenay, and had a son named
John. This marriage is based on original sources and is also cited in Honors
and Knight's Fees, vol. 1, p. 139 for the Honor of Honibere.

The Complete Peerage (iv, p. 335) shows Robert de Courtenay (died 1242) married
to Mary, daughter of William de Reviers, 5th earl of Devon.

John, the son of Philip de Columbers, was born 1254 and died in 1306. By his
wife, Alice de Pencester, he had 5 children, including Joan, wife of Geoffrey
de Stawell.

The 5th Earl of Devon was married to Mabel, daughter of Robert, Count of
Meulan, by Maud, daughter of Reginald, Earl of Cornwall, the natural son of
William the Conqueror. this link appears in many places including The Complete
Peerage, iv, p. 315-316.
