Subject: Weis : Ancestral Roots, 7th Edition - Corrections
Date: Tue, 1 Aug 1995 21:16:17 GMT


In order to spur conversation, I am posting the following corrections/
additions/ amplifications to The 7th edition of Weis. This is not
exhaustive, but only represents the lines I have worked with. The
substantial corrections to line 217 render connections to other lines
disproven, so I have included some supplemental lines to connect the family
with others in the book, and finally, I have added a few generations to a
line which, as far as I have been able to tell, is left dangling.

And comments or additional corrections would be appreciated.

Todd
-------------------------------------------

(1-20) Ealdgyth, wife of Edmund Ironside is named sister of Ealdorman
Eadric Streona, citing CCN, DNB, and Ronay. While I do not have access to
CCN, I doubt this is the primary reference. DNB may be the source of the
statement, naming the King and Ealdorman as brothers-in-law. This comment
seems, however, to refer to the marriage of Eadric to Edmund's sister,
since in commenting directly on Edmund's marriage, no mention is made of a
relationship between Ealdgyth and Eadric. Ronay seems to identify her as
illegitimate daughter of King Olaf of Sweden, calling her half-sister of
Jaroslav's (241-5) wife, but does not reference this comment. This
identification is also apparently followed by at least one fictional work
(King Olaf's Kinsman: a Story of the Last Days of Edmund Ironside, Rev.
C.W. Whistler).
Considering the political context of the wedding, which is well
chronicled, I think that the solution given by Moriarty is more likely than
that she was sister of Eadric. However, if she was sister of Eadric, then
according to Kelley ("The House of Aethelred," in Tribute to Charles Evans,
63-83) she would thus be daughter of Aethelweard (1B-18).

(16A-33) The first wife of William Mallory is unlikely to have been
a Papworth. This conjecture (in CP) was based on William's inheritance of
the lands of William Papworth, but as quoted by A.T.Martin in Archaeologia,
v. 56 pt. 1:165-177, William Papworth's i.p.m. named as his heir William
Mallory, with remainder to Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Mallory (brother
of William). This indicates that the connection between the two families
must have been in a generation preceding William and Thomas. (At least
one source suggests that William Papworth was the fourth husband of Alice
de Driby, mother of William and Thomas Mallory, but the index of ipms shown
by Miller makes the chronology somewhat questionable for this to be the
case.)

(30-26) Charles Evans, in The Genealogist iii:265-6, cited a couple of
charters in which William Longespee names his mother as a Countess Ida. He
then suggested that she may have been Ida of Flanders, Countess of
Boulogne, daughter of Matthew of Alsace (165-26) and of Maud, daughter of
King Stephen.

(45) Trojan of Bulgalia is said to be son of King Samuel, but both
Moriarty and Schwennicke show him as son of John Vladislav.

(52) For the wives of William Prouz (52-32) see discussion below under
line (217). The wife of William Prouz (52-33) is given as daughter of John
de Reigny. This does not match with the information found in the two
inquisitions dealing with the inheritance of William de Reigny. The first
of these indicates that the heirs of William were heirs of his paternal
aunts. The second states that Joan wife of Robert (Grubbe) Kribbe, Isabel
(Elizabeth) Horshey, and Nicholas de Walton each recieved a quarter share,
while the fourth was held by Joan wife of Hugh (or John) Litilcombe
(Luccombe) and Alice wife of William Prouz. Thus Alice Prouz and Joan
Luccombe were clearly daughters of one of William's aunts, whose share they
split, and Alice was not a de Reigny. (A clue to her identity might be
found in an entry among the property of John de Mandeville, where 1 knights
fee in West Ruddon, co.Devon was held (18 E I) by Hugh de Luccombe and
Walter (sic?) Prouz.)

(56A-35) It is not clear which parentage is preferred for Joan, wife
of Richard de Vernon, as the text gives one, while the note the opposite
conclusion. The document quoted by Shaw appears definitive, and is
supported by a document abstracted in the Historical Manuscript Commission,
Rutland iv: 28. This reports a marriage indenture (20 May, 3 Ric I)
between Rees ap Griffyth and Juliane de Vernon, agreeing that Richard son
of Juliane should marry Johanne, daughter of Rees.
This cannot be brought into agreement with the 1411 i.p.m. of
Lawrence Berkrolls, which appeared in Topographer and Genealogist, i:533-5.
This indicated that Lawrence held Coityf and other properties (which once
belonged to Richard Turburville), as coheir along with Isabella de
Stackpole, John de la Bere, and William Gamage. Then follows "Et dicunt
quod Johanna que fuit uxor Ric'i Vernon chivaler est propinquior heres
predicte Isabelle vid'i't. filia predicti Ric'i Stakepole filii predicte
Margarete et est etatis xl annorum et amplius." Thus, unless the author
and I have both misinterpreted the Latin, (quite possible in my case) it
would appear that this original source names Joan as daughter of Richard
Stackpole. This must be in error, or else she and Isabelle would have been
coheiresses of their Turberville share of Coityf, rather than Isabelle
alone representing this branch. I would suggest that the author (or a
transcriber) has dropped a generation from Joan's pedigree, and that it
should have read ". . . vid'l't. filia predicte Isabelle fillia predicti
Ric'i Stakepole . . . ." (Shaw and Nichols both beleived Joan daughter of
Isabelle. Bartrum supplies yet another solution, making Isabelle wife of
Rhys ap Griffith, Sr. and grandmother of Joan. This is incorrect, however,
as proven by a plea showing Ros Griffith (Jr.) was son of Joan de
Somerville, (wife of Rhys Sr), (Pedigrees from the Plea Rolls). Were this
true, Joan Griffith would not have been heiress of Isabelle, her
step-grandmother, to the exclusion of her (half-)brother Thomas Griffith.

(63A-33,34) Richard le Fraunceys or de Vernon, father of Richard (63A-33)
married Isabel de Harcla (VCH as cited and Farrer, HKF ii, 276-9). His son
Richard (63A-33) married first, Eleanor de Fenes, and second, Maud de
Camville (VCH,HKF). William de Vernon (63A-34) did not marry Margaret de
Stokeport (that William, probably a collateral, died 1241-2, ibid.). I
have found no reliable source for the wife of William (63A-34).

(108-27) Alan de Dinan, grandfather of Eleanor de Vitre, was,
according to the note at the break of line 214, the husband of Eleanor de
Penthievre (214-25), and thus these lines could be tied together.

(112-23) Henry de Bourgogne d.v.p., and hence was not Duke of
Burgundy. While it is true that de Vajay's text suggests that his wife was
daughter of Ramon Berenguer, this was an unfortunate editorial error,
Berenguer Ramon I being the intended count, as is clear from the accociated
pedigree, marital history, and chronology presented for him by de Vajay.

(121E-16) In the original sources, the sagas (i.e. Orkneinga Saga,
Heimskringla), Eysteinn is said to have fathered an additional child,
Sigurd I Riki, Jarl of the Orkneys, first of the line of Rognvald to hold
that title.

(137-22) Moriarty, Isemburg, Winkhaus, and Brandenburg all give as
mother of Stephen (137-23), Theobald's first wife, Gersende of Maine, while
Schwennicke gives an unnamed wife as his mother. I know of no other
reference for it being Adele of Crepi.

(192-18) The last generation of the ancestry presented for Glismode
of Worms, as daughter of Uta and Walahon of Worms, granddaughter of
Meingaud of Worms, and g-granddaughter of Witichin of Soissons, must be
modified for consistancy with another line. This lineage is based on
Meingaud, Count of Worms, being brother (? in-law) of Robert the Strong,
who was called son of Witichin (Guiguin) of Soissons in French sources.
Since Robert (48-17) is shown as son of Rutpert III (48-16) of Worms, the
lineage of Meingaud of Worms should be changed accordingly, with Rutpert
III as g-grandfather of Glismode. Moriarty has adopted a different account
of this descent, but his corrections show that he was still in flux.

(217) Unfortunately, all work on this line, including my own, has used
Pole and Vivian as a framework for correction and expansion. However, the
line as presented by Vivian was a genealogical basket case. It requires
complete reworking, an attempt at which follows. However, you may wish to
break the line altogether until a more substantial concensus can be reached
(the best remaining noble lineage for this family would be through Lord
Stourton, if he was grandfather of Petronell (gen. 39), or through Joan
Champernoun, if one accepts the identity of her great-grandmother as
daughter of Richard, Earl of Cornwall). See below for corrected line.
While I have not studied the line anew, the favored reconstruction
of the Prouz family appears to be in error. William (52-32) was made to
marry twice, with William (52-33) a son of Alice de Widworthy, and Richard
(217-33), Hugh and William Jr. children of the second wife, Alice Ferrers,
heiress of Helion. This version was adopted to explain the fact that Hugh
and Richard split Helion land, but Richard and Hugh married two daughters
and coheirs of William Helion of Credy Helion (Buckfast Cartulary), and it
was likely through this connection that they acquired their common Helion
claims. One of these properties Shaplegh Helion, was said to have been
held by Hugh and wife, and by Richard and wife Margaret of Hugh de
Courteney. The mention of the wife in these records is indicative that it
was in right of their wife that Hugh and Richard derived their claim (ipm
Hugh de Courtenay, 20EI). In addition, there was some claim of the senior
line of Prouz to Ashton, which has not been explained. Thus a William
Prouz appears in Feudal Aids in possession of Ashton in 1303, and Polwell
reports a grant (undated) by a William to his brother Richard, both used by
Benson to suggest an extra generation in the Prouz of Ashton line, but
clearly refering to William (52-33) of the elder line. Finally a Helion le
Prouz, who witnessed a grant of William, Sr. to his younger (half-)brother,
William, Jr., and was appearently not a brother (since brothers Richard and
Hugh are named and compensated), suggests that there was an earlier
Prouz/Helion marriage, as given in Devon N & Q, v:151. While I have not
found an answer to this conflict, it is probably appropriate to indicate
some doubt in the account of the marriages of William (52-32).
Relating to the parentage of Anthony Pollard, I have constructed a
line through Cockworthy to Raleigh, Chichester, Wooton, Moeles, and Prouz.
However, in a note on the Pollards in DCNQ, xxix, 303-305, J. Rowe
indicates, without references, "Richard Pollard married Margaret Chidley
(not Cockworthy)." This is somewhat confusing, as Chidley is a form of
Chudlegh, into which family their son Anthony married. However, as the
Cockworthy connection was based only on traditional pedigree sources, I
suggest that this new line be withheld until it can be investigated in more
detail. (It is still valid for Stukeley and Cobleigh, for which there is
documentary support.)

(222) As no descent from this line is provided, I would suggest extending
three additional generations in order to connect with an existing descent.
(See below)

(233B-36,38) The father-in-law of Peter Gerard (233B-36) is given as
Thomas Strangeways, which is suggested, with some doubt, by Ormerod. A
pedigree compiled less than a century after the death of Isabelle
(Strangeways) Gerard by Sir Thomas Wriothesley gives a different version of
her ancestry. He shows Isabel, wife of Peter Gerard, as niece of Thomas
Strangeways, and daughter of James Strangeways by Joan Orells.
(CollTop&Gen, ii:161-162) Peter Gerard (233B-38) is said to have married
the daughter of Thomas Stanley of Hooton. All of my sources (primarily
Ormerod) give his name as Sir William Stanley, so I am wondering what the
source is for the name given.

(243A-15) Regarding the parentage of Halfdan the Black (243A-16),
Moriarty quotes Howarth, who took the sagas to be generally accurate.
However, these sagas date from the 12th (Ari the Historian) and 13th
(Snorri Sturleson) centuries. Since Howarth's work, many internal
inconsistencies have been pointed out, and the degree to which the accounts
can be believed has been called into question. The surviving
near-contemporary works mentioning Gudrod the Magnificent only name one
son, Olaf Gersted-Alf, while those mentioning Halfdan fail to name his
father. Finally, these sources appear to place the two rulers in different
kingdoms of what was later to become a united Norway under Harald Fairhair
(243A-17). Thus it has been suggested (Steffensen, A Fragment of Viking
History, Saga Book 18:59-78; Turville-Petre, The Genealogist and History:
Ari to Snorri, Saga Book 20:7-23) that the sagas written three hundred
years later invented the clumsy second marriage of Gudrod (with its long
chronology) in order to unite a new dynasty with the previous one. (This
would be the same as the process which invented a marriage of Robert the
Strong to a daughter of Louis the Pious, or made Henry the Fowler a
maternal grandson of Emperor Arnulf. An example from the sagas is the
double marriage invented to unite the parentage of Harold Hildetand and
Sigurd Ring, the later himself a composite of two historical enemies, the
Sigfred and Anulo of the Frankish Annals. Also notable is the crude
insertion of a possibly mythical Ragnar Lothbrok and his descendants into
the Danish, Swedish, and Norse royal pedigrees.)
The suggestion that Gudrod was identical with the Godefred of
Frankish Annals (hence died 810-827), made by Howarth, is in conflict with
the plausible identification of his son Olaf Gersted-Alf with Olaf the
White of Dublin, son of a Godfrey (fl.870), King of Norway (Steffensen).
With these questions in mind, the line can not be considered sound prior to
Halfdan the Black.
Regarding the mother of Harald Fairhair, the Sagas tell a tale of
two half-brothers each named Harald, sons of Halfdan by two mothers each
named Ragnhild (the name of the second later drifted to Thora). As has
been pointed out by Turville-Petre, this is not likely, but was probably
invented to provide a connection through Sigurd Hjort to both Ragnar
Lothbrok and Harald Klak, necessary ancestry for all Saga kings. In
reality, there was probably only one wife, the daughter of Harald of Sogn,
who was mother of Harald Fairhair.

(246C-27) (also MCS 159-2,160-1) Regarding the parentage of Maud,
wife of Piers de Luttegarsville, I can find no evidence that she was
daughter of Geoffrey de Mandeville. The original cited source supposedly
showing this appears to be CP, but nowhere in the text is she named as
such. In an accompanying table, she is shown under a horizontal line
carrying Geoffrey's children, but no vertical line connects her to the
horizontal. It seems that her placement there was only for the purposes of
graphic layout, and does not indicate any relationship (similar to the case
which resulted in the incorrect identification of Margaret, wife of Ralph
de Lingen as a Pembrugge, corrected by Hansen as reported in line 56). Any
such relationship would be at odds with the inheritance of the Earldom of
Essex, which passed through Geoffrey de Mandeville's sister Beatrice, going
to her granddaughter, the wife of Geoffrey Fitz Piers, later made Earl by
King John.
It is clear that this Earldom was conferred on the basis of the
Mandeville descent of the wife of Geoffrey Fitz Piers, and not either a de
novo grant or due to a Mandeville descent of his mother. This is proven by
the failure of John Fitz Geoffrey (246-28), son of Aveline and eventual
male heir of Geoffrey Fitz Piers and of his grandmother, the Maud in
question, to inherit Essex on the death of his half-brothers, sons of
Beatrice de Say, s.p., but instead Essex went to de Bohun.

(246F-36) The wife of Richard Champernoun, and mother of his daughters and
coheiresses, was Elizabeth Reynell, daughter of Walter of Malston (DCNQ
19:26-29), the Hamley connection being in the previous generation (again
confused by Vivian).

The following are corrected or supplemental lines:

Line 86A
30. SIR GUY DE BEAUCHAMP (86-30) m. ALICE DE TONY (98-31)
31. ELIZABETH DE BEAUCHAMP m. bef. 1336/7 Thomas, Lord Astley, of

33. JOAN CHAMPERNOUN, m.1) ca. 1390, as his third wife, JAMES DE
CHUDLEGH (217-36), of Ashton, co.Devon. He d. aft. 1401, and she m.2) bef.
1402, JOHN DE COURTENAY (51-34). Joan is traditionally given as daughter
of Alexander, son of Alice de Astley, but that she was daughter of Richard
is shown in DCNQ xii, 340-2. Based on chronology, she was likely older
than Alexander, and clearly daughter of Richard's first marriage to Alice.
The Astley arms are displayed at Ashton, again supporting this line (DCNQ:
vii, pt 2, 22-31; xii, 340-342).

Line 124B
31. SIR HENRY DE CHAMBERNON (124A-31), liv. 1281, m. Dionisia
English of Stocklegh English, co. Devon, wid. 1284.
32. RICHARD DE CHAMBERNOUN, second son, was granted Modbury,
co.Devon, and Inceworth, co. Cornwall in right of his wife. He married
Joan, (half-)sister of James de Okeston (Oxton) of Modbury. Joan's mother,
also named Joan, and widow of Sir Reginald de Valletort, married secondly
Alexander de Oxton, but was mistress of RICHARD (258-27), Earl of Cornwall.
Pole (p. 309) reports a grant of 1284/5 in which Joan, wife of Richard
Champernoun, is called "sister" by Edmund, Earl of Cornwall, legit. son of
the Earl Richard, which appears to be conclusive evidence of her being
illegitimate daughter of RICHARD (258-27). For a discussion of her
paternity see: DCNQ xviii:108-112, and xix:319-321, and Cornwall Feet of
Fines, p. 121-2.

1336/7 m. Elizabeth, dau. and coheiress of Hugh de Valletort of North
Tawton, co. Somerset, and widow of Richard Tremenet. Vivian adds an
additional Richard into the pedigree, but this is chronologically unlikely
(DCNQ xx:189-194).
34. SIR THOMAS CHAMPERNOUN, of Modbury, liv. 1362/3, but dead by
1366/7. He married Eleanor, dau. Roger de Rohart (Rowand,Ruald) of Aston
Ruald, co. Oxon., and Dodbrooke and Portlemouth, co.Devon, and his wife
Eleanor Lovel, daughter of Richard, Lord Lovel of Castle Cary, co.Somerset,
by Alianore Stewart, daughter of Alexander and great aunt of Robert II of
Scotland. (Gens. 31-34. DCNQ xviii:108-112, xxv:184-6; Vivian; Waters)
35. SIR RICHARD CHAMPERNOUN, of Modbury b. 29 June 1344 (ae. 22 in
1366/7) at Suddon Manor, co. Somerset. He married first, ALICE DE ASTLEY
(86A-32, (see below)) daughter of Thomas, Lord Astley. He married second
Katherine, dau. Sir Giles Daubeney. (The order of these marriages has been
questioned. It has been pointed out (DCNQ xii:342-3) that Richard, son of
Katherine Daubeney, held Modbury, Dodbrooke, and Aston Ruald, suggesting
that he, and not his half-brother, Alexander, was the eldest son. However,
since Hugh, son of Richard held Dodbrooke of Roger, son of Alexander,
clearly the traditional order of the marriages, which also better fits with
the chronology in both the previous and succeeding generations, is
correct.) Sir Richard's will, dated 26 Feb. 1418/9, was proved 3 Apr.
1419, and named wife Katherine and sons Richard and John. He was dead by
23 Mar. 1418/9, when his son presented to Dodbrooke. (Exeter Episcopal
Registers: Stafford 422-3; Cal. of Inq. Edward III, iii:70-71(Proof of age,

granted Ashton and Shaplegh Helion in 1320 by Richard and Margaret Prouz.
Previous chronology of this generation, with Thomasine marrying in 1320,

from the confusion of the Prouz heiress with her daughter-in-law, Thomasine

married 2) bef. 3 Nov 1431, Radigond Fitz Walter, widow of Stephen
Derneford d. 1427, and daughter of William Fitz Walter of Langonet. A Fine
of 1431 proves she was not mother of John, son of James. James was Sheriff
of Devon in 1449/50. (Cornwall Feet of Fines, 994 (which provides an
incorrect parentage for Radigond); DCNQ 5, pt. 2:30; 8, pt. 2:22-31;

Trefriak, co. Cornwall in free marriage, with remainder to the heirs of
John Chudlegh. John's wife is called Thomasine dau. Nicholas Kirkham by
Vivian. However the only wife appearing with John in records was a
Margaret, and any wife could not have been daughter of either Nicholas in
the Kirkham pedigree. It is likely that this attributed marriage in Vivian
resulted from confusion with the marriage of his great-grandfather John
with Thomasine (Merton), widow of Robert and daughter-in-law of Nicholas
Kirkham. (Cornwall Feet of Fines 1111; Trigg Minor, iii, 427)
38B.SIR JAMES CHUDLEGH, m1) ca. 1476 Margaret, dau. William, Lord

grandfather of the same name.
