# Note: E.A. Freeman was definitively William's principal panegyrist. He makes no memtion of any St Clair rebels.

# Note: Hamon was killed Val-es-dunes he was Lord of Creully, Torigny, Evrecy and Thaon. He was not the Comte (Earl) of Corbeil or Mortain. The first three Counts were:

996 to 1032 Mauger de Normandie, comte de Mortain et de Corbeil
1032 to 1048 Guillaume 1er de Normandie, surnommé Werleng ou Guerleng, comte de Mortain et de Corbeil
1049 to 1104 Robert 1er de Conteville, comte de Mortain et de Cornouailles

    (The name of Thaon appears very early in archives of Normandy. Hamon of the Teeth, Lord of Creully, Torigny, Evrecy and Thaon was one of the feudal rebels at the time of the uprising that was defeated by William the Bastard at Val - es-dunes (1047). Léchaudé of Anisy in his notes on the barony and the church of Thaon it is mentioned by Wace Roman de Rou.) His father was Malger his Mother: Coeur-en-Auge

    In 1035, Robert, Duke of Normandy died. Although William was illegitimate, he was Robert's only living son, and so inherited the father's title. Gilbert, Count of Brionne, became William's guardian. A number of Norman barons would not accept an illegitimate son as their leader and in 1040 an attempt was made to kill William. The plot failed by they did manage to kill Gilbert.

    William was a Norman born and bred. William's cousin Guy of Burgundy, his rival was in every sense a Frenchman. His connexion with the ducal house was on distaff side, but uncontested legitimacy. This gave him an excuse for claiming the duchy in opposition to the bastard.. William after the death of Gilbert, gave the island fortress of Brionne in the Risle to Guy. The partition of the duchy was Guy's aim. William was to be dispossessed; Guy was to be duke in the lands east of Dive; the great lords of Western Normandy were to be left independent. St Clair fiefs lay to the North and East of a line from Rouen to Caen. The lords of the Bessin and the Cotentin revolted, their leader being Neal, Viscount of Saint-Sauveur in the Cotentin.

    The victory at Val-es-dunes was decisive, and the French King, whose help had done so much to win it, left William to follow it up. He met with but little resistance except at the stronghold of Brionne. Guy himself vanishes from Norman history. William had now conquered his own duchy, and conquered it by French help. For once King Henry had kept his word.

    The Conqueror's battle at Val-es-dunes was a tourney of horsemen on an open table-land just within the land of the rebels between Caen and Mezidon. William with the aid of Henry, King of France, William gained a great victory at Val-ès-Dunes, which led, to the capture of the two strong castles of Alençon and Domfront.

1073 - 1134 Philip de Braose 61 61 Philip confirmed his father's gifts to the abbey of St Florent in 1096. He was the first Braose Lord of Builth and Radnor, their initial holding in the Welsh Marches. Philip returned from the 1st Crusade in 1103. He built the Norman Church of St Nicolas at Old Shoreham and founded the port of New Shoreham. His lands were confiscated by Henry I in 1110, due to his traitrous support of William, son of Robert Curthose, but they were returned in 1112. Philip de Braose went on 2nd Crusade and died in Palestine.

Philip confirmed the gifts of his nephew, Philip de Harcourt, to the newly established Knights Templar. Philip de Harcourt, Bishop of Bayeux, bestowed the manor and church of Shipley on the Templars between 1125 and 1130 and in 1154 added St Mary's, Sompting.

William de Braose, First Lord of Bramber (d. 1093/1096) participated in the Battle of Hastings in support of William the Conqueror.

de Braose was given lands in south western England, adjacent to Wales, and became one of the most powerful of the Marcher Lords.

William was succeeded as Lord of Bramber by his son, Philip. William was present for the consecration of a church in his hometown of Briouze (whence the name Braose), France, in 1093, so we know he was alive in that year. However, Philip was issuing charters as Lord of Bramber in 1096, indicating that William died sometime between those dates.

    Richard I, Duke of Normandy (ggf through his eldest son of Robert II (The Devil), Duke of Normandy, who was in turn father by his mistress Harlette/Harlot of William I (The Conqueror); b 933; married 2nd his former mistress Gunnor and died 20 Nov 996, leaving [Mauger]. [Burke's Peerage, p. 1603]

# Note: Mauger, Count of Corbeil, in right of his wife; married Germaine, daughter and heir of Albert, Count of Corbeil, and had [Hamon, Count of Corbeil], with an elder son (William, dsp a monk in the Abbey of St. Maur). [Burke's Peerage]

# Note: Note the above puts the descendancy through William in doubt. Of course being an elder son, he could have been Count at least for a while, and maybe had illegitimate children. Though they would not be Counts.
