Family Notes

[SUSANNA KEENE.FTW]

Excerpted from Les Seigneurs de Bohon by Jean LeMelletier,
Coutances:
Arnaud-Bellee, 1978:  Born in 1109, Humphrey died 6 April 1187.
He married Margery (Marguerite, Margaret), eldest daughter of
Milo of Gloucester from whom he received the heriditary right
to the title of constable of England. Humphrey's fortune
considerably increased with the death of his father- in-law,
Milo of Gloucester, who without male heirs left a third of his
wealth to each daughter. Humphrey also inherited the position
of constable of England that was held by his father-in-law. In
1166 Humphrey inherited 3 1/2 parts of a knight's fees (rent)
from his grandfather's provinces and 9 1/2 parts "de novo." His
wife received 17 parts from Milo's provinces and 3 3/4 parts of
her brothers' land.
