Please add me to your list of interested recipients. My family is
descended from Sarah Beauchamp, great grandaughter of Maud de Braose
Beauchamp. I have several sources that support this line, but have not
verified them yet. Yours will add weight if it all matches up.

Thanks in advance,

With so many people interested in de Braose (and relatives), please
post it on the discussion group?

Hi Peggy:

I have this lovely family unit:

1. William of Braose1 died 1211.

Notes
Lord of Brecknock, Abergavenny, Builth, Radnor, and Gower who was exiled by
King John.

Child of William is:
+ 2 i. William of Braose2, died 1210.

Generation No. 2

2. William of Braose2 (William of Braose1) died 1210. He married
Matilda
of Clare, daughter of RICHARD and AMICIA.

Notes
Starved to death by King John.

Child of William and Matilda is:
3 i. John of Braose3.

Here's another grouping

1. Reginald of Braiose1. He married Gwladys Ddu, daughter of LLWYELYN
and
Joan.

Child of Reginald and Gwladys Ddu is:
+ 2 i. William of Braiose2.

Generation No. 2

2. William of Braiose2 (Reginald of Braiose1).

Child of William is:
+ 3 i. John of Braiose3.

Generation No. 3

3. John of Braiose3 (William of Braiose2, Reginald of Braiose1). He
married Margaret 1220, daughter of LLWYELYN and Joan.

Notes
Lord of Bramber and Gower

Child of John and Margaret is:
+ 4 i. Sir Richard of Braiose4, died 1335.

Generation No. 4

4. Sir Richard of Braiose4 (John of Braiose3, William of Braiose2,
Reginald of Braiose1) died 1335.

Child of Sir is:
5 i. Margaret of Braiose5, died Bef 12-May-1325. She married
Sir Roger
COLVILLE.

These are probably all related somehow! Let me know if you figure it out or
get another post more complete than what I have.

Always optimistic--Dave

According to my database, 1. William was the father of 1. Reginald who was
the father of 2. William As like with all my other info, I have no sources
though so I would appreciate learning about this line too.

(this attribution has long been debated, and is probably right, but
there is some question. It was addressed in The Genealogist several
years ago, but I don't recall the conclusion.)

ii. William4 (actually oldest son) he married multiple times, and
had numerous children, many of which are found in CP (under Brewes, I
think).


5.William3 (Reginald2,William1) lord of Abergaveny, etc. He had only
daughters and coheiresses. See CP.

that Margret was not proven to be the daughter of Joan, Princess of
England only the daughter of Llewellyn. Is there a consensus on Joan's
maternity? Is there any acceptable proof available?
Still hoping.

OK, here we go. What follows is a summary of everything I have hand on
Braose. Dates are truncated to year. It should not be assumed that
this is complete in any line (particularly the Stinton line and numerous
Welsh marriages), nor that younger sons or any daughters are listed in

Is this meant to be a direct line? Because if both Gwladys Ddu and
Margaret were children of Joan (they were both certainly daughters of
Llywelyn), how could one have married the grandson of the other? And even
if it was a bit of a John Woodville case, if John de Braose married
Margaret in 1220, how could their son have still been alive in 1335, 115
years later? As far as I was aware, Reginald de Braose was the _uncle_ of
John de Braose and his brother Philip, and Reginald was father to the
William de Braose who actually had an affair with Joan, wife of Llywelyn.

Does this sound more plausible?

I looked at a couple of additional sources, and can make a few additions
to my Braose account:


From Bartrum's Welsh Pedigrees:

(he is son by 1, which I failed to denote)

> A.Eleanor m. Humphrey (VI) de Bohun
> B.Eve m. William de Cantelou
> C.Maud m. Roger de Mortimer

D.Isabella m. Daffyd ap Llywellyn (by Joan)

Gryg and nephew of Gr. ap Rh., below

> d.Maud m. Gruffydd ap Rhys, great-grandson of Rhys ap Tudor
> e.Margery/Margaret m. Walter de Lacy


And from Moriarty's NEHGR article on Wingfield:


> B.
>
> 7.Richard, d.b.1292, m. Alice le Rus of Stinton
> 8. a.Giles
> b.Richard m Alianore

b.ca.1280, he was father or grandfather of

Eleanor, m. John Wingfield (her father was a Richard,
who held Wingfield, but since daughter
Catherine (wife of Michael de la Pole)
was b.ca.1350, probably Eleanor was
granddaughter, rather than daughter of
the above Richard.

Thank you, Todd for the list of the de Braose family. It looks very
close to what I have. I appreciate the list of your sources.

How is this family related to the Elizabeth Wingfield (daughter of Sir John Wingfield & Eleanor ?Glanville?) who m. a Michael de la Pole, whom you mentioned in an earlier message of last December:

"This Michael is son of Michael de la Pole> who married Catherine Wingfield, daughter of Sir John Wingfield and> Eleanonor Glanville. " (qualifications omitted)

That's the problem with omitting those qualifiers. Eleanor is
traditionally called a Glanville. Moriarty makes a good argument that
this is incorrect, and that instead she was a Braose. Not only was
Braose the lord of Wingfield prior to it coming to John, but he also
made a donation for prayers to be said for his soul, and those of his
wife, and of Richard de Braose and his wife. There is no contemporary
evidence to link Glanville to Wingfield, so it looks like Broase wins.
