The 2nd Butler, who died in France, married twice. Through his first wife, Joan (daughter of Geoffrey de Marreis, Justiciar of Ireland), who probably died in childbirth, their descendant, the 3rd Earl of Ormond inherited further considerable estates in Ireland and England. Through his second wife, Rohesia, the 2nd Butler was the forefather of the Lords de Verdon who, however, did not retain the surname Butler. It needed a King to persuade Rohesia to marry a Butler! For in 1225 Henry III personally requested her to marry his "beloved Theobald le Botiller". [Butler Family History]
