William de Mohun's (d Oct 1193) ancestors
WJho...@aol.com
is showing his father as another William and this William's wife as Goda de
Toeni
but nothing furhter back then this father.
But I notice in my database that I have a "William de Mohun of Dunster" who
married Agnes de Gant and was living in 1141
This seems like a likely set of parents.

What you suggest is the same as what Weiss gives in his 7th edition page
126. Thanks for steering me into that direction.

and I found interesting ancestors but also a question.
Weiss in his 7th edition pages 125 and 126 gives that Walter de Gaunt
married Maud (or Matilda) of Brittany, daughter of Stephen I, Count of
Brittany (214-24) and this helps to establish who we are looking at. BUT ES
Volume III/1 in the back has pages with corrections and additions. The
original entry for the Dukes of Brittany is in Volume II Tafel 75, and the
corrected version in III/1 tells
Etienne I (=Stephen) was Count of Treguier and Lamballe died 1137, married
Havise de Guincamp. They had five children :
1. Geoffrey II Botterel, Count de Penthievre
2.Alain II, Earl of Richmond
3.Agnorie wife of Olivier II de Dinan
4.Henri, Count de Treguier et de Guincamp for his descendants see ES III/1
Tafel 155
5.Olive, married (1) Henri de Fougeres (2) Guillaume de Saint-Jean
no Maud or Matilda. Does anyone know what is going on here?
With many thanks.

No.
But Keats-Rohan in Domesday Descendants, p. 473 says that Walter de
Gand's wife was Matidlda, daughter of Count Stephen, lord of Richmond.
She references Clay's Early Yorkshire Charters Vol 5, No 390 on p. 342
which is, in Clay's words:
"Notification by Maud, daughter of count Stephen of Britanny and wife
of Walter de Gant..."
(I'm omitting the latin.)
Regrettably K-R in DD 224 does not list all his children in her
paragraph on Stephen on p. 224. Nor does Clay show any daughters of
Stephen in his pedigree of the dukes of Britanny in EYC Vol 4, p. 84.

We have encountered

Count Stephen Lord of Richmond
CP V page 785 to 787 cal.ls him Stephen, a count of Brittany (how many were
there?)
here his wife is called Hawise whose parentage is unknown, she was Countess
of Guingamp by her marriage. See footnote e on page 787.

Dear Leo, et al.,
Following for your review is what I have for Stephen, 'count
of Brittany' (& c.) and his immediate issue. This is not
complete, as I note I have included nothing to date for his
son Henri, for example.
Besides the matter of Stephen's daughter Maud, wife of Walter
de Gant, there is a correction pointed out some time ago re:
Stephen's daughter Aginore (also called Aginore de Penthievre).
She was identified as the wife of Alan de Dinan, not Oliver by
Todd Farmerie (see Todd, Mike Talbot et al., <Vitri>, SGM,

In England at the Council of Clarendon, Jan 1164 (ex. charter
at Wilton for Le Mont St. Michel)[2]
Conan, duke of Brittany and earl of Richmond, restored to Torfin fitz
Robert (de Manfield) the forfeited Manfield fee of 2 knights, held
of the honour of Richmond, ca. 1159-1171

Hermer's daughter. ' [EYF 57, cites EYC V: 55 and the charter of
Duke Conan, EYC IV, no. 55[5]]
~ Note: given that Duke Conan was dispossessed of his honour of
Richmond by Henry II ca. 1166, this charter should be dated
ca. 1159 - 1166.
_______________________
Deposed from his duchy by Henry II: following his return to the
continent in 1166 and the capture of the castle of Fougeres
(July 1166), Henry II
'had decided on a more drastic solution to the problem of
Brittany and the insecurity of the marchlands. He seems to
have held Duke Conan responsible for failing to keep order,
and indeed the intervention of the constable of Normandy in
August 1164 suggests that Conan was either unwilling to
discipline his vassals or incapable of subduing them. Henry
deposed him: his heiress, the infant Constance, was
betrothed to Henry's seven-year-old son Geoffrey, and
Conan retired to his ancestral county of Guingamp.'[4]

I know him in my notes as Alain II le Noir de Penthievre, 1st Comte de
Richmont. Among his children, was there not as well a daughter Constance
who married Alain III Vicomte de Rohan? I had not explored his ancestry,
so I am glad to see this placement.
Roger LeBlanc
Gordon and Jane Kirkemo
I was comparing your information with what I have on file, and I found a
discrepancy regarding the children of Stephen of Richmond. I cite the
following from DD (page 729) under the heading of "de Tancarville, Rabel":
"Son of William de Tancarville (d.1129) and Matilda of Arques. Held his
father's office of Chamberlain in Normandy. Married first Theophania,
daughter of Stephen of Richmond, by whom he had issue William, his
successor, and Oliva, wife of William Malet of Graville, and secondly Agnes
(Fees, p.1044,for 1242/43, Lincolnshire: 'set est de honore Britannie et
data fuit antiquitus in maritagio cum Theophania filia comitis Stephani, et
iterum data fuit in maritagio cum Oliva sorore Willelmi camerarii de
Tancarvilla'). He died in 1140.
This seems to suggest an additional daughter for Stephen, although the
mother is not named. I hope this is of interest.
Sincerely,
Gordon Kirkemo
