      (d) This William was 2nd son of Geoffrey de Canville, of Clifton (dead 1210), by his 2nd wife Leuca (d. 1236), granddaughter of William de Braiose. By his 1st wife, Felice (daughter of Philip de Worcester), from whom he was divorced on account
      of consanguinity, Geoffrey had also a son, Richard. The half-brothers had a long dispute about the manor of Clifton, which William claimed from Richard, and it was finally adjudged to him. Geoffrey was son and heir of William de Canville, by
      Auberee (living 1233), daughter and heir of Geoffrey Marmion, of Clifton, and of Arrow, co. Warwick. Auberee and her husband are stated by Dugdale and others to be the parents - instead of the great-grandparents - of the Geoffrey in the text.
