GENERATION 13

Y2 Rhodri ap MERVYN "MAWR" m Angharad MEURIC abt 846

Rhodri's greatest triumph came in 856 against a force of Danes who made landing in Anglesey. The struggles of Rhodri and his fellow Welsh leaders were not all with the Danes. An equally potent threat lay to the east of Offa's Dyke in the form of the English. The English kings of Mercia made several attempts to take Powys - with temporary success in 822.
Just 7 years later Mercia itself succumbed to the growing might of Wessex, and from that point the southern kingdom posed an ongoing threat to Welsh independence. From 871 the leader of Wessex was Alfred the Great.
In 877 the two "Greats", Rhodri and Alfred clashed, and the Welsh leader and his son Gwriad were killed. In the vaccuum following Rhodri's death, Welsh kings, perhaps fearing the might of the Danes more than the threat of Alfred, and fearful of the power of Rhodri's sons, submitted to the overlordship of Wessex.

V30 Cte Raoul III "Le Grande" de VEXIN (Comte de Valois et Vexin et Crepy) m Countess Adele (Aelis) de BAR-SUR-AUBE (b 1019 d 1053)

Raoul, a descendent of Charlemagne, was Count of Valois, Vexin, and Crepy. To this he added Bar-sur-Aube by marrying the heiress, Adele, Comtesse de Bar-sur-Aube, a widow. However, after sigining the marriage-contract but before the nuptials had taken place, the knights of the Chateau de Joigny passed her on to another nobleman. Raoul hurried back and captured the Chateau and his bride, locking her up in La Ferte-sur-Aube, long enough to assure himself she was not pregnant. Again in his absence, she was captured by a local squire but, after being rescued, the nuptials with Raoul took place and they became the parents of two sons and two daughters.

After Adele died, Raoul married a lady named Haquenez, but when the king died and his widow became available, Raoul dismissed Haquenez and married the queen-widow. At this, however, Haquenez complained to the pope of being "despoiled of everything by her husband; she had been dismissed on a false charge of fornication."
Raoul was excommunicated, not for adultery but for incest. "Contrary to the law, he had lain with the wife of the dead king, who was his cousin.

A2c......Guilliame (William) b bef 1037 Varenne d 24 Jun 1088 Pevensey bur Priory of Lewes m Gundred de NORMANDIE

William married Princess Gundred of England before 1077 in Normandy, France. Princess Gundred was born about 1063 in Normandy, France. She was the daughter of King Guillaume "Le Conquerant" de Normandie and Queen Matilda van Vlaanderen. She died on 27 May 1085 in Castle Acre, Acre, Norfolk, England .
William received large grants of land in recognition of the distinguished part he took at the battle of Hastings. He had large grants of land in several counties among which were the barony of Lewes, in Sussex, and the manors of Carletune and Benington, in Lincolnshire. So extensive indeed were those grants that his possessions resembled more the dominions of a sovereign prince than the estates of a subject. He enjoyed, too, in the highest degree, the confidence of the king, and was appointed joint Justice-General, with Richard de BENEFACTIS, for administering justice throughout the whole realm. While in that office, some great disturbers of the public peace having refused to appear before him and his colleague, in obedience to citation, the Earl took up arms, and defeated the rebels in a battle at Fagadune, when he is said, for the purpose of striking terror, to have cut off the right foot of each of his prisoners. Of these rebels, Ralph WAHIR or GAUDER, Earl of Norfolk, and Roger, Earl of Hereford, were the ringleaders. He was likewise highly esteemed by King William Rufus, and was created by that monarch the first Earl of Surrey. He came with William the Conqueror and was awarded over 300 manor houses in England. He built the castle at Castle Acre, Norfolk. Coat of arms over church door in Castle Acre.

W10 Owain Fawr ap GRUFFYDD m Gwladys verch LLYWARCH

Owain preferred the title of "Prince of Wales" as it indicated that he was the ruler of all Wales. This title defined his postion in the empire that to an ever increasing extent exercised lordship over him while elevating him above English barons and other lesser rulers in Wales. He took advantage of the troubled reign of King Stephen of England (1135 ? 1154) and seized some neigbouring territories. In 1157, Henry II led an army into Wales and Owain acknowledged Henry II as overlord. Owain kept all the territory he had gained with the exception of Tegeingl in the extreme north east.

A6 Ralph de MORTIMER, First Lord of Wigmore m (a) Melisande DE FERRERS (b) Mabel bef 1088

Ralph accompanied the Duke of Normandy in his expedition against England, and was one of his principal commanders at the decisive battle of Hastings; and shortly after, was sent into the marches of Wales to encounter Edric, Earl of Shrewsbury, who still resisted the Norman yoke.
After much difficulty, and a long siege in his castle of Wigmore, Mortimer subdued, and delivered Edric into the king's hands. When, as a reward for his good service, he obtained a grant of all Edric's estates, he seated himself thenceforward at Wigmore. Independently of these great Welsh territorial possessions, Ralph Mortimer enjoyed by the bounty of his royal master sundry lordships and manors in other parts of the realm, which he held at the time of the Doomsday Survey.
In the beginning of Rufus's reign, Mortimer took part with Curthose, but he subsequently changed sides, and being constituted general of the forces sent to oppose that prince in Normandy, by King Henry I., he totally routed the enemy, and brought Curthose prisoner to the king.

Hugh de Mortimer attested a charter by Gerold, Abbot of St. Lucien at Beauvais , in the time of Stephen, Count of Aumale. When King Stephen, circa 1140, granted to the Earl of Leicester the town and castle of Hereford et lotum comitatum Herefordisc., the fees of Hugh de Mortimer were with others excepted. In 1144 he initiated the reconquest of the Marches after the revolt of the Welsh on the death of Henry I, by successfully reoccupying the cantreds of Maelienydd and Elfael, and repairing the castles of Cwmaron and Colwen. In 1145 he captured and imprisoned the Welsh prince Rhys ap Howel, and in 1146 he slew Meredith, son of Madog ap Idnerth, late chieftain of Elfael and Maelienydd. In 1148 he blinded his prisoner Rhys ap Howel. The name of his wife is unknown. He seems to have died in the period 1148-50.

W12 Gwenllian ferch OWAIN m (a) Owain Cyfailiog ap GRUFFYDD (b) Cadwgon ap MADOG (c) Hwfa ap CYNWRIG

Note: Owain was the son of Gruffydd ap Maredudd

On Madog's death in 1160 Owain became the ruler of most of southern Powys.
He is recorded as having been in alliance with the other Welsh princes to withstand the invasion of 1165 by King Henry II of England. Thereafter he usually followed a policy of supporting the English crown. In 1170 he gave land for the founding of the abbey of Strata Marcella. In 1188 however he refused to meet or support Baldwin, Archbishop of Canterbury and Giraldus Cambrensis when they journeyed around Wales to raise men for a crusade, and was excommunicated as a result.

In 1195 Owain handed the rule of his realm to his son Gwenwynwyn ab Owain and retired to the abbey of Strata Marcella, where he died and was buried two years later.
Owain has also long been considered a notable poet. Although only one poem ascribed to him has been preserved, this one, Hirlas Owain, is commonly rated as one of the finest Welsh poems of this period. In the poem, Owain's bodyguard are gathered at his court following a raid in 1155 to free his brother Meurig from prison in Maelor. The mission accomplished, Owain calls for the drinking horn to be passed to each member of his bodyguard in turn, with words of praise for each one. There is a more sombre note when he remembers two of his men who fell in the fighting and grieves for their loss. The poem's most recent editor, Gruffydd Aled Williams, has suggested that the poem was actually written by Cynddelw Brydydd Mawr, the preeminent Welsh court poet of the century, perhaps in collaboration with Owain.

Roger fought for King Henry II against the rebellion of his (the King's) son, Henry. In 1179 Roger was instrumental in the killing of Cadwallon ap Madog, the prince of Maelienydd and Elfael. He was imprisoned until June 1182 at Winchester for this killing. In 1195 Roger, with the backing of troops sent by Richard I invaded Maelienydd and rebuilt Cymaron castle. In 1196 he joined forces with Hugh de Say of Richards Castle and fought and lost the battle of New Radnor against Rhys ap Gruffydd, allegedly losing some forty knights and an innumerable number of foot in the fight.
(there is considerable doubt as to this event) By 1200 he had conquered Maelienydd and issued a new charter of rights to Cwmhir Abbey. In the summer of 1214 he became gravely ill and bought the right for his son to inherit his lands while he still lived from King John. He died before 8 July 1214.Castle

x3 Sir Robert de MORTIMER of Attleborough m (a) Margery FALSTOLF (d 1141) (b) Catherine de BROCKDISH

Robert de Mortimer, the first of the family of whom there is record in Norfolk, witnessed a charter of William de Warenne to Castleacre Priory, probably in the time of Henry I. [Complete Peerage IX:243, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
The Mortimers of Norfolk held under the Earls Warenne a fief of which Attleborough was the caput, and Scoulton, Raveningham, Stanford and Rockland among its members.
As Henry I died in 1135, and Robert was of age when he witnessed a charter, then Robert was b. before 1114 at least.

As William, constable, de Mortimer, he witnessed a Norfolk charter of Richard de Baliol circa 1155; and as William de Mortimer, two charters of William the Lion of Scotland, of which one was granted in 1166. He fought with the Scots at Alnwick, 13 July 1174, where he was taken prisoner by Sir Bernard de Baliol; and was one of the pledges for the King of Scotland under the treaty of Falaise later in the year.

x6......Robert b abt 1143 Attleborough

Robert on his marriage received Little Woodham (Woodham Mortimer) in Essex from Henry II by the service of 1/2 fee and probably Amberden (in Debden) as another 1/2 fee. In 1190/1 he, or his son, was assessed to the scutage of Wales for one knight's fee of the Honour of Peverel of London in Essex. Woodham and Amberden were held by Robert the son in 1212 as one fee. The father's marriage presumably took place in or before 1168, when he was pardoned a debt in the account of the sheriff of Essex.
It is not easy to distinguish this Robert from his son Robert at a time when either might have been the tenant of Woodham, or to distinguish them from their namesake and contemporary Robert de Mortimer of Attleborough. . . There seems to have been as close a connection between the Mortimers of Attleborough, and their said overlords as between Robert of Essex and the King. It would appear likely that it was Robert of Essex, the protege of Henry II, who witnessed at Valoignes the later version of the treaty of Falaise, some time in the early months of 1174, as being in the train of King Henry, while William de Mortimer of Attleborough was one of the hostages under that treaty for William the Lion--Earl of Huntingdon until his deafeat at Alnwick in July 1174; also that it was Robert of Essex who, at Le Mans, witnessed a charter of Henry II, dated 1175-81 or 1177.
That there was a close connection between the families of Attleborough and Richard's Castle is suggested by heraldic evidence; by the recurrance in both families of the names Robert and William (Hugh probably came in at Richard's Castle from Say); and by the few details that are known about a shadowy Pernel de Mortimer, who seems to have belonged to both families. Of her it is known that before 1199 (probably before May 1194) she held land in Dengey Hundred, in which are Woodham Mortimer and Amberden, which later was given to Tiltey Abbey; that in July 1199, as a widow, she was R. del Ech for dower in Cambe (where Mortimers of Attleborough had large holdings); and in 1203 levied a fine with William de Buckenham as to the advowson of Buckenham and land there--a Mortimer of Attleborough manor.

5 Matthew de MORLEY m unknown 1239 Swanton Morley

Sir Matthew de Morley was a justice in Norfolk 1229 and onwards; and in 1232 collector of a subsidy in that county. He put in his claim to land in Morley for which a fine was levied in November 1234. In 1242-3 he was holding 2 knights' fees in Morley, Wicklewood and Barford, and 1 fee in Roydon. He was living in September 1250. [Complete Peerage IX:209-10, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
In 1226 he [Matthew] was pardoned a forest fine which had been incurred by Bartholomew de Mortimer, his uncle, whose heir he was.
The origin of this family remains obscure. They held land in Morley, near Wymondham, Norfolk, and in Roydon (Reydon), on the north bank of the Waveney, the boundary between that county and Suffolk. That their name was possibly assumed after marriage with an heiress of Morley is suggested by an undated deed of Robert de Morle, son of Randulf de Charun and Maud (---), granting the rights of himself and his mother in certain land. Randulf de Charun figures in the account of the sheriff of Norfolk in 1159, and in 1166 held 3 knights' fees of Hubert de Rye in that county, 2 fees in Bucks, and one fee in Beds jointly with Richard FitzRalph and Osbert de Clinton. The family of Charun were early associated with Roydon. Odo de Charun, in the reign of the Conqueror, gave to the priory of Eye two-thirds of the tithes of Gislingham, Suffolk (about 5 miles south of Roydon), and of Roydon.

7 Robert de MORLEY m unknown 1264 Swanton Morley

Robert de Morley was son and heir of Sir Matthew de Morley. He made a grant of land in Roydon circa 1250. In August 1254 he obtained a grant of free warren in his demesne lands at Roydon and Morley; as the charter is dated at Bordeaux, he was probably serving in Gascony at the time. He served the office of coroner. It was probably the same Robert who was a surety in 1276, and commissioner of gaol delivery in 1279, 1287 and 1288. He died and was buried in Prussia, his heart being brought back to Roydon.

William was appointed in 1288, during the King's pleasure, to the custody of the lands in East Anglia of John d'Auvillers, deceased. In October 1294 he took part in the abortive expedition to Gascony in the company of Roger de Mohaut (de Monte Alto) under the Earl of Richmond, and served there again in the campaigns of 1295 and 1296. In 1297 he was summoned to a military council at Rochester on 8 September, and in November he went North in the company of Ralph de Monthermer, Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, to drive back the Scots, who had devastated the border counties after Wallace's victory at Stirling. He was summoned to Parliament from 29 December 1299 to 3 November 1306, by writs directed Willelmo de Morle, whereby he became LORD MORLEY.
He married, firstly, Isabel, sister and heir of Robert DE MOHAUT (LORD MOHAUT] (died 1329), brother and heir of Roger Mohaut. He married, Secondly, before October 1295, Cicely, whose parentage is not known. He died probably before the end of 1302, and was buried in Roydon church. His widow Cicely was living in 1316.

See the SAUVEUR branch here

Note: Haywise was the daughter of John MARSHALL and Christina FITZWALTER

Sir Robert was Marshal of Ireland from July 1324; he fought at sea Battle of Sluys in the lead ship 1340 and fought at Crecy 1346.
In 1316 he became lord of Morley, Norfolk, and in the same year obtained livery of his wife's lands, having done fealty; in 1317 and later years he was summoned for military service against the Scots. He was summoned to Parliament from 20 November 1317 to 15 December 1357, and in 1317 was called one of the "major barons."
In 1321 he was requested to appease disturbances, and was ordered not to attend the meeting at Doncaster of the "Good Peers" summoned by Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. In the foIlowing spring he was ordered to raise men for the King and come to the muster at Coventry; and probably fought at Boroughbridge, his arms being on the roll. In July 1322 he took part in the King's unsuccessful campaign in Scotland.
He was styled a knight in 1324. In May 1324 he was summoned to a Great Council of Magnatcs, and in August and December was summoned for military service in Gascony, and to a colloquium of the magnates and clergy upon the King's proposed expedition there. In July 1324 order was made to put him in possession of the Marshalsy of Ireland. On 26 October 1326 he was a member of the Council at Bristol which elected Prince Edward custos of the kingdom, upon the flight of Edward II.
In 1327 he was summoned for service against the Scots; and from that year onwards was on a number of commissions in Norfolk to make arrests, inquiries, oyer and terminer, &c. In 1330, as "cosyn" and heir of Robert de Mohaut, he asked for an inquiry as to the fees Mohaut had held. On 16 June 1331 he held a tournament at Stepney, and with twenty-four others defended himself against all comers.
In 1332 he was ordered to choose archers in Norfolk; next year, he served in Scotland, where he fought at Halidon Hill, 19 July 1333, and apparently was employed until the middle of 1335. In June 1335 he gave a quitclaim of the Mohaut inheritance to Queen Isabel, the manor of Framsden being granted to him out of it.
In August 1335 he was about to go on a pilgrimage to Santiago; but it is unlikely that he went, because he was summoned to a Council in London, probably on Scottish affairs, which then and in the following year --- when he was summoned again --- caused apprehension. Attacks by French and Scottish vessels were anticipated, and in May 1336 Morley was a commissioner to guard the coast of Norfolk. In January 1336/7 he was in Scotland again, but in July 1338 he was back in Norfolk, guarding the coast. On 18 February 1338/9 he was appointed captain and admiral of the fleet of all the ships of Great Yarmouth and all other ports from Thames' mouth northwards. In 1339 he sailed with the fleet to Normandy and burnt many ports. On 24 June 1340 his ship led the attack on the French fleet at Sluys, which was overwhelmed, and many English ships were recaptured from the enemy.
In November 1341 he was setting out for service in Brittany. In January 1342/3 he was ordered to be at Portsmouth, with 20 men, to sail for France on 1 March.
On 18 June 1345 protection was granted to Robert de Morley, chivaler, going abroad with Hugh Despenser, in the Earl of Northampton's expedition to Brittany. He had a similar protection, 7 July 1346, on joining Edward III's summer campaign in France; and on 26 August took part in the victory of Crecy as one of the bannerets of the King's division, continuing to serve in France with 30 men, himself, as banneret, 5 knights, 9 esquires and 15 archers. When the King began the siege of Calais, he brought round his fleet and blockaded the port so that no relief could come to the town from the sea. He was present at the tournament at Lichfield, 9 April 1347. He fought under the Earl of Lancaster in the naval action off Winchelsea, 29 August 1350. In 1351 he was again guarding the Norfolk coast; and, in 1354 was a justice in'the same county under the Labourers' Act. In August of that year he was one of the peers who (as such) appointed proxies to give their consent to the informal submission to the Pope of the articles of peace between England and France. In 1355 he was appointed Constable of the Tower, and held this office till his death.
He married, 1stly, in or before 1316, Hawise, sister and coheir of John MARSHALL [LORD MARSHAL], of Hingham, Norfolk,and daughter of William MARSHAL, [1st Lord Marshal], by Christian, daughter of Robert [FitzWalter], 1st Lord FitzWalter, hereditary Marshal of Ireland, who, as Robert's feudal superior [of the Barony of Rye], had been his guardian. She, who on the death of her sister Denise s.p., 14 September 1316, became, according to modern doctrine, Baroness Marshal, may have died before 1327.
He married, secondly, by September 1334, Joan de TYES was daughter of Sir Piers de Tyes (j). She died 24 December 1358. He died 23 March 1359/60, in Burgundy. (j) His lands lay in Norfolk, Lincs, Essex, Herts, Northants, and Bucks. Knighton, vol ii, p. 112, says that he and a son of his both died the same year. Possibly this was his son Henry, who is not heard of again after the mention of him in the Inq.p.m. on his father, where he is said to be heir to his brother Thomas.

Note: Catherine de Stafford, was the daughter. of Hugh, 2nd Earl of Stafford,

His father fled abroad before being appealed of treason during the Merciless Parliament in 1388, and forfeited the title of Earl of Suffolk and the family estates. Over the next decade, Michael made vigorous attempts to recover these lands, and obtained most of them piecemeal between 1389 and 1392, following his father's death. However, his close association with the Lords Appellant, particularly the Earl of Warwick and the Duke of Gloucester prejudiced Richard II against him.

Sir Michael, obtained the annulment of the judgment against his father ; and upon the accession of King Henry IV. was fully restored to the castle, manor, and honour of Eye, with the other lands of the late lord, as also to the Earldom of Suffolk, with a reversionary proviso, that those lands and honours should, in default of his male issue, devolve upon the male heir of his deceased father.
While he obeyed the summons of the Duke of York to defend the kingdom against Henry Bolingbroke in July 1399, he did not object to the disbandment of York's army and consented to the deposition of Richard II. While the first Parliament of Henry IV technically upheld the forfeitures of the Merciless Parliament, his estates and title were immediately restored by Henry IV for his support. However, he would spend the remainder of his life trying to obtain possession of the remaining estates which had not been restored.

He played a relatively small role in national politics, although he regularly attended Parliament. He took part in the campaign in Scotland in 1400, naval operations around 1405, and was the senior English diplomat at the Council of Pisa. Suffolk was also a lieutenant of the Duke of Clarence during his campaign of 1412 - 1413. However, most of his energies were spent on re-establishing de la Pole influence in East Anglia. He was a justice of the peace in Norfolk and Suffolk from 1399, and assembled a considerable following among the local gentry. He completed his father's building plans at Wingfield, Suffolk and enlarged the local church. Suffolk brought 40 men-at-arms and 120 archers with him on the 1415 campaign of Henry V. He died of dysentery before the battle of Harfleur on 14 September, 1415 , and was succeeded by his eldest son Michael, who was also present there.

William became the Marquis and Earl of Suffolk and chief minister of Henry VI and the favourite of Margaret of Anjou. He served in the French wars, and contributed in 1424 to the defeat of the French and Scots at Verneuil. After the death of the Earl of Salisbury at the siege of Orleans (Nov. 1428) the Earl of Suffolk was charged with the conduct of the siege; but all his efforts were defeated by the memorable intervention of Joan of Arc. He retreated and was pursued by the Maid to Jergeaux, which place she took by storm, and Suffolk was made prisoner.

He soon recovered his liberty and assisted at the coronation of Henry VI in the cathedral of Notre Dame, at Paris, in 1431. Admitted to the king's council, and created Knight of the Garter, he negotiated in 1444 the truce with France and the king's marriage with Margaret of Anjou, stood proxy for Henry at the marriage ceremony in France, and escorted the bride to England. He was then created Marquis of Suffolk, received the thanks of parliament for his services in negotiating the truce, enjoyed the favour of the queen, and was virtually first minister.

After the murder of Humphrey, the good Duke of Gloucester, popular suspicion attached itself to Suffolk as an accomplice; and his unpopularity was increased by the surrender of Anjou and Maine to France, according to the treaty which he had concluded. He received meanwhile the earldom of Pembroke, was appointed Lord Chamberlain, and Lord High Admiral of England, and in 1448 was created Duke of Suffolk. The popular feeling vented itself in insurrections in 1450, and Suffolk, impeached by the Commons committed to the Tower, was sentenced, without trial, to five years' banishment.

He took an oath, before the gentry of Suffolk, that he was innocent of the crimes laid to his charge, and then embarked at Ipswich. But he was overtaken at sea by a vessel belonging to the Duke of Exeter, Constable of the Tower, was by his order beheaded, and his body was laid on the sands at Dover (May, 1450). It was removed thence by the king's direction and given up to the duchess, who buried it at Wingfield, in Suffolk.

John was the son of Thomas Arundel who was about 14 years of age at his father's death, in ward to John, Lord Dynham, (John was the First Lord Dynham of Cardynham and Lord Treasurer of England.) Thomas married Katherine, sister of the above. They were both the children of Sir John Dynham, Knight and Jane de Arches. Thomas and Katherine married about Dec 1473. This marriage brought great possessions into the Arundel family. Sir Thomas, like his father, may have fought on the losing side at Tewkesbury, but was granted a pardo n. He had a brief and troubled career. In the 1484 Parliment of Richard II I, he was attainted and deprived of his estates, which were bestowed on his step sister Anne's husband, the rascally Sir James Tyrell, the murderer of the two young princes in the Tower. Anne was the only child of Sir John's first marriage to Elizabeth Morley, daughter of Lord Morley. Katherine, Thomas' wife was granted an annuity of 100 pounds from the forfeited estates, orginally belonging to the Dynham family. On the ascention of Henry V II, the attainder was reversed and the estates restored but the restitution was too late for Thomas who died Oct 11, 1485, just seven weeks after the Battle of Bosworth. In addition to the Cornish properties and others inherited from Sir John Chideock in Dorset, he held four manors in Devon.
