------------------------------

He [Baldwin Wake] married Isabel, widow of Foubert DE DOUVRES (a), daughter of William BRIWERRE, by his wife Beatrice. He died before 20 July 1213. Isabel was living, 1224, but died before 10 June 1233.  [Complete Peerage XII/2:297-8, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

Reg., vol cv, pp. 39-40.  It was formerly believed that the family to which Foubert belonged took its name from Dover, but Round suggested that the name was derived from Douvres in the Bessin and the evidence which he adduced seems to be convincing.
