TEXT as d. of Pagan de Beauchamp (her brother in this db)
_FA1 PLAC Her lover attacked husband Hugh but she warned him speaking in English.
_FA2 PLAC The story used as evidence that the Scoto-Normans spoke English.
_FA3 PLAC Also used to substantiate theory they used English in preference to French.One sour ce says Beatrice's father was Robert de Beauchamp. If she was the heiress of her grandfather , though, she probably didn't have surviving brothers or uncles. (Granted, her inheritance fr om her grandfather does not prove that she got ALL his property, and I haven't traced his hol dings to see.) Her lover attacked Hugh de Morville with a sword but that she cried out in En glish to warn Hugh. It was used as evidence that the Scoto- Normans could speak English, perh aps in preference to French. Hugh and Beatrice are commemorated on a plaque at Dryburgh Abbe y and at least Hugh is supposed to be buried there, possibly Beatrice was, too.
W.H. Turton, _The Plantagenet Ancestry_ (1928, reprinted Baltimore 1968),
