CP 9:268 [and note g] lists Ralph de Mortimer and marrying (1) Melisande [no
surname given] and (2) Mabel.
In a charter dated ca. 1100, Stephen, Count of Aumale, with consent of his
wife Hawise, daughter of Ralph de Mortimer, granted a church to the priory of
Saint-Martin-des-Champs, Paris, which also mentions Ralph's deceased wife,
Melisande. Hawise was (from another charter) clearly Melisande's daughter, but
it is not certain that Melisande was Hugh's mother.
CP 9:269 states that the "name of [Hugh's] wife is unknown."
Ralph, Hugh's father, was son of Roger de Mortimer, Seigneur of
Mortemer-sur-Eaulme, Normandy. His wife's name was Hawise.
