William Bertram II 
William was born in 1157 in Mitford, Northumberland, England.1 William's father was Baron of Mitford Roger de Bertram I and his mother was Ada de Morville. His paternal grandparents were William Bertram I and Hawise de Baliol; his maternal grandparents were Constable of Scotland Hugh de Morville and Beatrice de Beauchamp. He had a brother named Richard. He was the younger of the two children. He died at the age of 49 in 1206.1 General Notes
William Bertram II, in 1196, occurs as son and heir of Roger, and accounts to the sheriff of that year for his barony, which then consisted of the parishes of Greatham, Felton, Mitford and Ponteland. He confirmed to the monks of Brinkburne all the grants which his grandfather William and his father Roger had made to them, and died about the year 1199. He married Alice, daughter of Odonell Umfreville, and sister of Robert Umfreville, who gave her the villes of Great Bavington and Kirklawe, with the service of Robert of Divellstone in North Milbourne, besides the forest of Ottercope and right of a free chase on certain lands on the west side of Rede, about Corsenside. William Bertram died in the 7th year of King John, 1206, for at that time we find King John conferring the wardship of his lordship's son and heir, Roger, upon Peter de Brus with the custody of his lands during his minority, in consideration of the sum of 300 marks.
