    Hugh, styled "OF KEVELIOC," EARL OF CHESTER, also VICOMTE D'AVRANCHES, &c., in Normandy, son and heir born at Kevelioc [?Machynlleth], co. Merioneth. He joined in the rebellion against King Henry II, set on foot by Henry, the son of that King, and was taken prisoner at Alnwick, 13 July 1174. He was deprived of his Earldom, and was again in rebellion both in England and Normandy, but, in January 1177, was restored. He married, in 1169, Bertrade, then aged 14 (the King giving her away in marriage "because she was his own cousin "), daughter of Simon de Montfort, Count D'EVREUX by his 1st wife, Maud. He died at Leek, co. Stafford, 30 June 1181, aged about 34 and was buried at St. Werburg's, Chester. His widow died 1227, aged about 7I. [Complete Peerage III:167, XIV:170, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------

    This nobleman, Hugh (Keveliok), 3rd Earl of Chester, joined in the rebellion of the Earl of Lancaster and the King of Scots against King Henry II, and in support of that monarch's son, Prince Henry's pretensions to the crown. In which proceeding he was taken prisoner with the Earl of Leicester at Alnwick, but obtained his freedom soon afterwards upon the king's reconciliation with the young prince. Again, however, hoisting the standard of revolt both in England and Normandy, with as little success, he was again seized and then detained a prisoner for some years. He eventually, however, obtained his liberty and restoration of his lands when public tranquility became completely reestablished some time about the 23rd year of the king's reign. His lordship m. Bertred, dau. of Simon, Earl of Evereux, in Normandy, and had issue, I. Ranulph, his successor; I. Maud, m. to David, Earl of Huntingdon, brother of William, King of Scotland, and had one son and four daus., viz., 1. John, surnamed le Scot, who s. to the Earldom of Chester, d. s. p. 7 June, 1237; 1. Margaret, m. to Alan de Galloway, and had a dau., Devorguilla, m. to John de Baliol, and was mother of John de Baliol, declared King of Scotland in the reign of Edward I; 2. Isabel, m. to Robert de Brus, and was mother of Robert de Brus, who contended for the crown of Scotland, temp. Edward I; 3. Maud, d. unm.; Ada, m. to Henry de Hastings, one of the competitors for the Scottish crown, temp. Edward I; II. Mabill, m. to William de Albini, Earl of Arundel; III. Agnes, m. to William de Ferrers, Earl of Derby; IV. Hawise, m. to Robert, son of Sayer de Quincy, Earl of Winchester.

# Note:

    The earl had another dau., whose legitimacy is questionable, namely, Amicia,* m. to Ralph de Mesnilwarin, justice of Chester, "a person," says Dugdale, "of very ancient family," from which union the Mainwarings, of Over Peover, in the co. Chester, derive. Dugdale considers Amicia to be a dau. of the earl by a former wife. But Sir Peter Leicester, in his Antiquities of Chester, totally denies her legitimacy. "I cannot but mislike," says he, "the boldness and ignorance of that herald who gave to Mainwaring (late of Peover), the elder, the quartering of the Earl of Chester's arms; for if he ought of right to quarter that coat, then must he be descended from a co-heir to the Earl of Chester; but he was not; for the co-heirs of Earl Hugh married four of the greatest peers in the kingdom."

# Note:

The earl d. at Leeke, in Staffordshire, in 1181, and was s. by his only son, Ranulph, surnamed Blundevil (or rather Blandevil) from the place of his birth, the town of Album Monasterium, modern Oswestry, in Powys), as 4th Earl of Chester.

# Note:

    * Upon the question of this lady's legitimacy there was a long paper war between Sir Peter Leicester and Sir Thomas Mainwaring---and eventually the matter was referred to the judges, of whose decision Wood says, "at an assize held at Chester, 1675, the controversy was decided by the justices itinerant, who, as I have heard, adjudged the right of the matter to Mainwaring."

To the detriment of his elder brother of the half blood, William (de Roumare), Earl of Lincoln, he appears to have Iong held a large portion of the profits of the EARLDOM OF LINCOLN. He distinguished himself as a soldier both on the side of the Empress Maud and of that of King Stephen, with the greatest impartiality. He was one of the 5 Earls (h) who witnessed the Charter to Salisbury granted at the Northampton Council of Henry I, 8 September 1131. To Stephen's second "Charter of Liberties" he was, in 1136, a witness, and by him he was made Constable of Lincoln. Against that King, however, he took part at the battle of Lincoln, 2 February 1141, in which Stephen was made prisoner, who retaliated on the Earl 29 August 1146, by seizing him at Court, at Northampton. The King granted him the Castle and city of Lincoln, probably after the pacification of 1151. He married, about 1141, Maud, daughter of Robert, EARL OF GLOUCESTER, by Mabel, daughter and heir of Robert FITZ-HAMOND, lord of Tewkesbury. Having again taken part with King Stephen, and being consequently distrusted by both sides, he died 16 [?17] December 1153, being supposed to have been poisoned by his wife and William Peverell, of Nottingham. He was buried at St. Werburg's, Chester. His widow, who in 1172 founded Repton Priory, co. Derby, died 29 July 1189. [Complete Peerage III:166-7, XIV:170, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

    Ranulf II de Gernons, 4th Earl of Chester, VICOMTE (Viscount) DE BAYEUX, VICOMTE D'AVRANCHES, Ranulf also spelled RANDULF, or RALPH (b. c. 1100--d. Dec. 16, 1153), a key participant in the English civil war (from 1139) between King Stephen and the Holy Roman empress Matilda (also a claimant to the throne of England). Ranulf, nicknamed 'aux Gernons' (i.e. moustaches), played a prominent and vacillating part in the civil war of Stephen's reign, his actions, in common with most of his peers, springing from personal grievances rather than dynastic loyalty or principle. Ranulf's father, Ranulf I, had been granted the earldom of Chester in 1121 after his maternal uncle had drowned in the White Ship disaster (1120) but, in return, had been compelled to surrender Cumberland and his patrimony of Carlisle. The restoration of these lost estates was the mainspring of much of Ranulf II's political life. Inheriting the Chester earldom in 1129, he initially supported Stephen as king after 1135. However, successive treaties between Stephen and King David of Scotland in 1136 and 1139 gave the Scots large tracts of land in Cumberland coveted by Ranulf who reacted by seizing the town and besieging the castle. Ranulf now allied with the Empress Matilda in defeating the king at Lincoln in February 1141, capturing and briefly imprisoning Stephen. Ranulf's association with the Angevin party was cemented by his marriage in 1141 to the daughter of Robert of Gloucester. Later (1149) he transferred his allegiance to the king in return for a grant of the city and castle of Lincoln. Coventry received its original charter from him. However, his territorial ambitions were no closer realisation as the king of Scots was also a close ally of Matilda. In 1145, Ranulf was reconciled to Stephen. However, there was no love lost between Ranulf and the king's entourage, many of whom had suffered at his hands. In August, 1146, at Northampton, Ranulf was suddenly arrested and put in chains when he refused the king's demand to restore all lands he had taken. He was only released when he surrendered all former royal property, including Lincoln. Stephen's arrest of Ranulf was a public relations disaster. He had broken his oath of reconciliation of 1145 and his own promise of protection, thus deterring any more defections from the Angevin faction. Stephen had breached a central tenet of effective medieval rule, that of being a good -- i.e. fair -- lord. Ranulf joined Henry FitzEmpress and was reconciled with David of Scotland who, in return for the lavish grant to Ranulf of most of Lancashire, retained Carlisle. But Ranulf was never a party man. His priorities remained centred on his own territorial and dynastic advantage, as shown by his 'conventio' with a leading royalist baron Robert of Leicester (1149/53). Under this treaty, the two magnates, independently of their rival liege-lords Stephen and Henry FitzEmpress, agreed to limit any hostilities forced between them by their masters and to protect their respective tenurial positions. Ranulf's career, notorious for his arrest in 1146, is more significant as evidence that the drama of high politics was played against a dense background of baronial competition for rights, lands, and inheritances which took precedence over any claims of royalty.

William Montacute (alias Montagu), King of the Isle of Man, 1st Earl of Salisbury & 3rd Baron Montagu (1301–1344) was an English nobleman and loyal servant of King Edward III.
William was born in Cassington in Oxfordshire, the eldest son of William Montagu, 2nd Baron Montagu and Elizabeth Montfort. He succeeded to his father's title in 1319.

Montacute accompanied Edward III in repelling the Scottish invasion of 1327. The next year he served Edward on diplomatic missions to the King of France and to the Pope. In 1330, at the behest of the King, Montacute and some of his men arrested Roger Mortimer, and after Mortimer's execution Montacute received a good part of the forfeited estates.

Montacute took part in the Scottish campaigns of the following years, notably at the Battle of Halidon Hill in 1333. In the same year the King gave Montacute the English claim to the Isle of Man.
He was created Earl of Salisbury on 16 March 1337. In 1338 the new earl went on a lengthy diplomatic mission, first to France to declare King Edward claims to the French crown, and then to visit many of the German princes who might ally against France. Later that year he was made Marshall of England.

During the next two years, he was one of the commanders of the English forces in Flanders, until he was captured by the French near Lille. He was released later in 1340 as part of a prisoner exchange, on the condition that he never again fight against the French. It was probably sometime after his return to England that he conquered the Isle of Man, which had been held by the Scots. He won and was crowned to King of Man in 1344.

Lord Salisbury died on 30 January 1344 from bruises said to have been received during a Windsor tournament. He was buried at Bisham Priory in Berkshire, which he had founded in 1337 adjoining his home, Bisham Manor.
He married Catherine Grandison, daughter of William Grandison, 1st Baron Grandison. Legend holds that Edward III was in love with her, and that it was her dropped garter from which the Order of the Garter derives its name. The matter is disputed, but the garter at least is more likely to have belonged to Joan of Kent, who was engaged to her son. There is also a story that the king raped the countess, but this is probably a fruit of French propaganda.

 1334 Sybil Montacute 1275 - 1319 William de Montague 44 44 Knight of the Bath
Seneschal of the Duchy of Aquitiane
Sir William Montacute, 2nd Baron, eldest son of Sir Simon, served in several expeditions into Scotland, and distinguished himself, and as a reward for his services was made Knight of the Bath. In the reign of Edward I, he received the honour of Knighthood, along with Edward, Prince of Wales; and in the 2nd year of Edward II, he obtained the royal charter for free warren at his Manor of Aston Clinton in County Bucks, as he did afterwards for those of Saxlington in Norfolk, Knolle in Somerset, and Waneford in Devon. In the same reign he was Governor of Berhamstead Castle and Steward of the king's household; and had a grant of the bodies and ransom of Rene ap Grenon and Madoc ap Vaughan, and Andeon ap Madoc, Welsh Barons who had rebelled and been taken prisoners. Moreover, he obtained from the king a special license to make a Castle of his house at Kersington in Oxford, and was appointed Seneschal of the Duchy of Aquitiane in France, and at last of Gascony in 1318. In 1318-1319 he had summons to Parliament, and died 1320 in Gascony, but was interred at St. Frideswide, now Christ Church, Oxen. By Elizabeth, daughter of Peter, Lord Montford of Beaudefort, in County Warrick, he had issue 4 sons and 7 daughters.

 1275 - 1345 Elizabeth de Montfort 70 70 1311 Alice de Montagu 1250 - 1316 Simon de Montague 66 66 1st Baron de Montacute
Sir Simon de Montacute, 1st Baron de Montacute, who was in several expeditions into Wales, particularly in that of 10th of Edward I, 1282, when Llewellyn lost his territory and his life. He obtained from Edward I, confirmation of the Manor of Shipton Montague in Somerset, with the woods thereunto belonging in the forest of Selwood and a grant of several Manors in the same county, and in those of Dorset, Devon and Oxford. This same Lord Montacute made several campaigns with reputation both in France and Scotland, in the reign of Edward I, in which he was also Governor of Corffe Castle in Devonshire. In the reign of Edward II he served again in Scotland, and was Governor of the Castle of Beaumaris in the Isle of Anglesly, and Admiral of the King's Fleet. In that reign he also obtained a grant for a weekly market on Tuesday at his Manor of Yardlington, County Somerset. In the 7th of Edward II, 1314, he obtained a license of the king to fortify his Manor at Yardlington. This Manor was very beautifully situated in a picturesque locality upon a very fine lawn, and remained in this family through many descents, until through the last Countess of Salisbury, who was beheaded at the age of seventy by Henry VIII, it passed to the Poles, and thence to Henry Stafford, Duke of Buckingham. He bore his Coat of Arms the original shield of his ancestor Drogo I, as did his father and each of his ancestors. However this Sir Simon later changed the Arms to Argent, three fusils in fess gules. Illustration opposite page 15 in Montague Genealogy, and is taken from his seal appended to his signature to the letter of the Barons of England to Pope Boniface VIII, in the reign of Edward I, 1301, a duplicate of which is preserved in the chapter house at Westminster. These arms, with some modifications for differences in family, have been the arms of all the succeeding families of Montague. Sir Simon married Aufricia, daughter of Fergusius, King of the Isle of Man, who was descended from Orry, King of Denmark. The historian records that Aufricia, having fled to King Edward, when dispossessed by Alexander III, of Scotland. Edward bestowed her in marriage on Simon, Lord Montague, who by the king's assistance recovered the Island and enjoyed it in her right for many years. Sir Simon was summoned to Parliament from 28 of Edward I to 8 of Edward II, 1300-1315, soon after which, in 1316, he died, leaving two sons, William and Simon.

 Berta D. 1247 William Montacute William de Montacuto, who succeeded to the estate, and recovered all the lands which his father had lost. But in the 17th of Henry II, 1233, he also had his lands distrained by virtue of the king's precept for omitting to repair to court at the feast of Whitsuntide, there to receive the dignity of knighthood as required by law. But the next on doing his homage he was, by the Sheriff of Counties Dorset and Somerset, reinstated in his possessions. He died 31st of Henry III, 1247.

 D. 1218 William Montacute William de Montacuto, the second son, succeeded to the Barony, and in 6th of Richard I, 1196, paid œ6-1-6 for his estates in County Somerset, as scutage for the king's ransom. (This was Richard Couer de Lion, who was taken prisoner by the Germans as he was returning to England, after the Third Crusade.) He was Sheriff of Dorsetshire and Somersetshire in 6-7-8-9 years of King John, 1205-1209; which fully proves his importance at this time, when none but persons of the greatest rank and property were admitted to that office. Being one of the great barons of that reign who stood up for the liberties of their country, and being found 17th of John, in arms with the rebellious barons against the king, he was stripped of his lands in Counties Dorset and Somerset, which were seized by the king, and given to Ralph de Raleigh. He died 1218.

 Isabel Drue of Montecuto Drue de Montecuto, who, upon the assessment of the aid for the marrying the king's daughter, 12th of Henry II, 1167, certified his knight's fees to be nine in number, a half and a third part of the old foefment, and one of the new. He married Aliva, daughter of Alan Bassett, Baron of Wiccomb, in County Buckingham. After his death she married Richard Talbot, ancestor of the Earl of Shrewsbury. The eldest son of Drue and Aliva was named Drue, and died in the lifetime of his father, their only daughter became a nun at Shaftsbury.

 William of Montacute William de Montacute, who erected a Monastery at Montacute Mountain, and endowed it with the borough and market of Montacute. An ancient record written about 1538 states that, "within the ruins of the castle at Montacute is now a mean house for a farmer, the town has a poor market and is builded of stone as commonly all towns thereabout be." But little is known with regard to this William Montacute, except that one author says that he was an only son, and that he took care of the estate left him by his father, and died leaving it entirely to an only son, Richard.

 1040 - 1125 Drogo Montacute 85 85 Drogo de Montague (or as it was written in Latin de Monteacuto or Montacute) was born about the year 1040. He became the trusted companion, follower and intimate friend of Robert, Earl of Moriton or Mortain, the favorite brother of William, Duke of Normandy, afterwards the Conqueror. Drogo and the Earl of Moriton were of the same age, and both entered heartily into the plans of William in his proposed expedition against England. This expedition was in active preparation in the summer of 1066 and was composed of 60,000 men and 300 ships. They landed at Pevensy upon the coast of Sussex, late in Sept., 1066, and immediately burned and scuttled their ships, that their only hope might lie in their courage and resolution, their only safety in victory. This marked the advent of the first Montague upon the shores of England, and as he marches on towards the plain near Hastings (where upon the 14th of Oct. the battle of Hastings was fought and won), we note that the kite-shaped shield of the Norman invader, its color is cirulean blue, and upon it is the full length figure of a Griffin segreant (rampant with wings spread), and painted a bright golden hue. This was the original Coat of Arms of the Montague family in England. (Footnote: A Gryphon or Griffin was an imaginary animal, devised by the ancients, and consisted of the body and tail of a lion, with the head and claws, or talons of an eagle, thus denoting great strength united with great swiftness.)

William having conquered England, and ascended the throne as William I, his followers were rewarded with large grants of land. Both his favorite brother, the Earl of Moriton, and his trusty follower, Drogo de Monteacuto, received large possessions. Drogo obtained the grant of several Manors, particularly in the County of Somerset. The original castle or seat of Drogo was at Montecute, an eminence and parish in Tintinhull, Somersetshire, four miles south of ??chester. Its ancient name appears to have been Logoresburg and was also called Bishopton. Here the Earl of Mortain built a castle and named it for his friend Drogo de Montecuto. While this was the original home of the Montagues, the seat of their barony was at Shepton Montacute, a villa at no great distance from Montacute. This parish contains the hamlets of upper and lower Shepton, Knolle and Stoney Stoke, and was held by Drogo de Monteacuto and his direct descendants until the time of Henry VIII, when Sir Thomas Montacute leaving no male issue, this estate was divided between his three sisters.

Drogo de Monteacuto also held of Robert, Earl of Moriton, the following Manors: Yarlington, Sutton Montacute, Tulbier or Torlaberie, and also held one hide of land in Montague in this county. (A hide of land was 160 acres and four hides was 640 acres made a knight's fee.) We find Drogo de Monteacuto in possession of these estates until his death, which took place about the latter end of the reign of King Henry I, about 1125. A curious fact may be recorded here, that upon the spot where the battle of Hastings was fought, William I founded an Abbey which was called Battle Abbey, and in the words of the charter, "Instituted a market to be kept there on Lord's Day free from toll," and that Anthony, Viscount Montague, a lineal descendant of Drogo, about the year 1575-1600, built a fine house there and obtained authority from Parliament to have the market changed to another day.

He was succeeded as well in his estates as well as in the Royal Stewardship by his son, William de Beauchamp.

He was the second surviving son of Roger of Montgomery, 1st Earl of Shrewsbury and Mabel of Bellême. As was typical of the first post-conquest generation, he inherited most of his father's English possessions while his older brother Robert of Bellême, 3rd Earl of Shrewsbury inherited the Continental possessions.

During his four years as earl he spent most of his time in the Welsh march fighthing against the Welsh. In 1098 he joined forces with Hugh d'Avranches, 1st Earl of Chester in an attempt to possess Anglesey. There he was killed while fighting off a raid by king Magnus Barefoot of Norway.

Hugh was never married, and while it is likely he intended his younger brother Arnulf of Montgomery be his heir, his properties were inherited by the elder brother Robert.

---------------------------------------------------
HUGH DE MONTGOMERIE, Earl of Shrewsbury and Arundel, succeeded his father in his English possessions. The Welsh gave him the name of Hugh Goch, i. e. Red headed.1 This might be presumed to be a term of reproach, applied as it was by a people who had but little love for the new race which had taken possession of England, and less even for the family, which from its estates on the borders, was foremost in their oppression. While Roger pushed the dominion of his master successfully over the refractory Welsh, his memory is not charged with the same severity and cruelty as adhere to some of his sons in their dealings with them. Hugh survived his father but four years; dying in 1098,2 unmarried, his possessions and honors came to his brother Robert.
He met his death at the hands of the Norwegians, who at the time were apparently redressing the wrongs the Welsh were suffering under. "Owen, a Welsh lord, father-in-law of Griffith and Cadagan, kings of Wales, having been disobliged by his sons-in-law, privately invited the Earls of Chester and Shrewsbury into his country, promising them a great booty. The two earls levying some troops, were received by Owen into Wales, where they committed unspeakable cruelties. The two kings, surprised by this unexpected attack, were forced to fly into Ireland, and leave the country to the mercy of the English. Their flight giving their enemies an opportunity to continue their march, they penetrated as far as the Isle of Anglesey, where they destroyed all with fire and sword."3 "Magnus, the son of Harold, King of Norway, having taken possession of the Orkneys and of the Isle of Man, arrived accidentally upon the coast of Anglesey. Hearing of the cruelties committed by the English, and touched with a sense of generous pity, he determined to land his forces, and to preserve the miserable inhabitants from destruction. The English endeavored to oppose the Norwegians. In the attempt, the Earl of Shrewsbury was slain. The prince of Norway, observing that nobleman resolute in opposing his landing, and whose impetuous valor had carried him into the sea, levelled an arrow, which through the opening of his armor pierced his right eye, and reaching the brain, he fell down convulsed in the water. The Norwegian prince, on seeing him fall, cried 'Let him dance,' or rather, 'Let him depart.' This accidental stroke of justice seen by the eye of superstition, made the Welsh to conclude, that the arrow had been directed by the immediate hand of the Almighty."4
In Llandyfrydog being mentioned as the place of Hugh's death, superstition goes further, when it states that one night his dogs being put into the church ran mad, "and the Earl himself died miserably in less than a month after." Another account states that the Earl of Shrewsbury arrived with his vassals first at Diganwy, the place of rendezvous, and waited several days for his auxiliaries. On a threatened landing of the northmen one day, Earl Hugh mounting his horse, put himself at the head of his men, and rushed into the water to meet the enemy. He was immediately killed by an arrow from the hands of Magnus.
"His bow string twangs,--its biting hail
Rattles against the ring-linked mail.
Upon the land in deadly strife,
Our Norse king took Earl Hugo's life."6
His body was not recovered until the ebbing of the tide, and was brought from Anglesey, and buried alongside of his father at the great Abbey of Shrewsbury.1 He built the castle at Cleobury, of which there are now scarcely any remains.2 And he added considerably to the endowments of his father's abbey at Shrewsbury, "with a heavy curse on the violator."3 "He was the only one of Mabel's sons who was courteous and amiable; and he conducted himself with great moderation during the four years he held the family honors and domains.

He was at the Castle of Bures when his mother was murdered there and he pursued the murderers in vain. In the summer of 1080 at Caen he joined his brothers in attesting his father's charter for Troarn fo rthe soul of their mother. Before his father's death he was already recognised as his heir in England. In 1092 he was at the siege of Breval and with other magnates he made peace between William deBréteui l and Ascelin Goel. On Roger's death in 1094 he succeeded him as EARL OF SHROPSHIRE or SHREWSBURY and to all his land s in England and Wales. In that year the Welsh rose in arms . Hugh fought them with some success in North Wales, but in 1095 they took Montgomery and slaughtered the garrison. Hugh took part in the conspiracy against William II in 1095 , but he bought the King's favour for £3,000. In1098 with the Earl of Chester he invaded and conquered Anglesey, treating the Welsh with great cruelty. When a Norwegian fleet appeared off the coast of North Wales, the 2 Earls met at Diganwy (co.Carnarvon) and crossed to Anglesey. As the fleet approached the land, the Earl rode along the shore and was struck by an arrow shot, or a javelin thrown, from a ship and fell dying into the sea. Thus he died unmarried about 31 July 1098 and was buried about 17 August at Shrewsbury Abbey.[d] [Complete Peerage XI:688-9, (transcribe d by DaveUtzinger)]

The Normans and English long sought for his corpse, drawn a way by the tide, and found it at length; and on the 17th da y after his death bore it to Shrewsbury, where it was buried in the abbey amid great mourning. He was the only one of the sons of Mabel who was gentle and amiable. This seems hardly compatible with the alleged cruelties tothe Welsh in Anglesey.

Records show that he left as issue one illegitimate son, Ralph Montgomery.
