He married Maud, daughter of Stephen, Earl of Brittany, and had Gilbert, Robert, Geoffrey, Alice, Matilda and Agnes, who married William de Mohun.

The title of Earl of Richmond appears to have been in existence in England a considerable time before it was held in accordance with any strict legal principle. Alan Le Roux (c. 1040-1089), was a Norman relative of Geoffrey of Brittany. He took part in William the Conqueror's invasion of England, and Le Roux obtained grants of land in various parts of England, including manors formerly held by Earl Edwin in Yorkshire. He built the castle of Richmond in one of these.

His brother Alan Le Noir, or Niger, (c. 1045-1093), succeeded to these estates on the former's death. Le Noir was in turn succeeded by Stephen (d. 1137), Count of Penthievre, who was either his son or another brother. These Breton counts were territorial lords of Richmond, and are often reckoned as 'earls of Richmond', though they were not so in the strict later sense.

    STEPHEN, a count of Brittany, youngest son of Eudon,[a] succeeded his eldest brother, Geoffrey Boterel I, or Geoffrey's son Conan in the Breton lands, and his brother Alan the Black in the honor of Richmond in England, thus uniting all the possessions of the family, but he appears to have been out of possession of the honor of Richmond for a time during the reign of William II. In March 1101, he was a surety for Henry I for the observance of an alliance with Robert, Count of Flanders, and on 3 September 1101 at Windsor he witnessed charters of the King for Herbert, Bishop of Norwich, and for St. Peter's, Bath. On 30 October 1107 he executed at Lamballe a charter for the abbey of SS. Sergius and Bacchus at Angers, and in 1123 at Guingamp one for the abbey of St. Melaine at Rennes. He was a benefactor of the abbey of St. Mary, York, and in the period 1125-35 confirmed to that house gifts of churches, tithes and lands in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, and Norfolk, which formed part of the honor of Richmond. About the year 1110 he and his, wife founded the Augustinian abbey of Ste. Croix at Guingamp, and In 1130 he founded the Cistercian abbey of Bégard.

Hugh and his father were favorites of King Edward II (a weak king) and helped him throw off the mastery of Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. Edward's reliance on the Despenser's drew the ire of his wife Isabel. She had become the mistress of Roger de Mortimer while on a diplomatic mission to France. In September 1326 the couple invaded England, executed the Despensers, and deposed Edward II in favor of his son, Edward III. Isabel was rumored to be involved in her husband Edward II's murder.

1188 - 1263 Alice Basset 75 75 1175 - 1224 William of Malet 49 49 William Malet (fl. born before 1175–1215) was one of the guarantors of the Magna Carta. Also known as William II Malet. He was lord of Curry Malet and Shepton Malet in Somerset, and served as sheriff of that shire. The precise nature of his relationship to the earlier Malets is disputed. His first wife is unknown. His second wife was Alice Basset, daughter of Thomas Basset.
(Wikipedia)

William Malet, son and heir, who in 7 of Richard I, 1196, upon paying a fine of œ100, had livery of his inheritance. He resided at Curry, which was then the principal seat of his barony. In 12 of King John, 1211, he served the office of Sheriff of Somerset and Dorset. He appears to be first mentioned as a minor in 1194 in an expedition then made into Normandy, and in the ensuing year he had livery of his inheritance. His estates, including the principal one, curry-Malet in Somersetshire, were held by the service of twenty knight's fees. In 1210-14 he joined the barons in their insurrection. His lands in four counties were thereupon confiscated and given to Hugh Vivonia, his son-in-law, and to Thomas Basset, his father-in-law, and he was excommunicated by the Pope Innocent having become one of the sureties for the observance of the Magna Charta. He was also fined 2,000 marks, but which was not paid until after his decease, when 1,000 marks were remitted for military service for King John in Poitou. William Malet died in the 9th of Henry III. 1224/5, having issue by his wife. Mabel Bassett, who predeceased him, daughter of Thomas Basset and grandson of Ralph Basset, who was constituted Justiciary of England by Henry II. and introduced many salutary laws, especially that of frank pledge. Children: William, died sine prole in the lifetime of his father. Hugh.

until after his decease, when 1,000 marks were remitted, being found due him for military service to King John in Poitou in France. He married Mabel Basset, whose grandfather, Ralph Basset, was constituted Justiciary of England by Henry II and introduced many salutary laws, including that of frank pledge. William Malet died in 9th year of Henry III, 1224/5, having had issue by his wife Mabel, who predeceased him. A son William, o. s. p. v. p. (obit sine prole vitra patria), died without issue in lifetime of his father, and his two sisters were his heirs. Hugh and Mabel, who married Hugh de Vivonia, and Hawise de Malet.

William Malet (10??-c. 1121) was the third of his family to hold the honour of Eye and the lordship of Granville. He was either the younger brother, son, or nephew of Robert Malet, in other words, either a son or grandson of the first William Malet. He forfeited his English lands and was banished sometime between his father's death (circa 1106) and 1113. Several other barons lost their lands in 1110, so that year is likely. The precise cause is not known, but probably it is connected with the conflicts between Henry and King Louis VI of France during that period.

 1100 - 1146 Alan Brittany 46 46 # Note:

    Richmond, previous creations: Alan III, a Count of Brittany, whose uncle, another Alan, was probably a companion in arms of William I (The Conqueror) at Hastings and was granted vast land holdings in Yorkshire almost immediately after the Conquest, seems to have been recognized as Earl of Richmond by 1136. There is no record of his formal investiture with the dignity, however.

# Note:

    His title derived from Richmond Castle in North Yorkshire, which his uncle Alan had built not long before dying in 1089 and which remained the caput or administrative centre of the honor (agglomeration of knight's fees in a single unit under the feudal system). Richmond Castle was granted to the 1st Duke of Richmond of the present creation in August 1675, the same month he was first ennobled, but the medieval hono comprised lands throughout eastern England, not just in Yorkshire. Earl Alan sided with Stephen against the Empress Maud at the time of the Anarchyl. His son Conan IV held the Dukedom of Brittany (right to which he enjoyed through his mother, Alan's wife) as well as the Earldom of Richmond.

# Note:

    Conan IV had an only child, a daughter Constance, who married first Geoffrey, a younger son of Henry II of England who was thus acknowledged as Earl of Richmond and Duke of Brittany, then Ranulf, Earl of Chester, who styled himself Earl of Richmond and Duke of Brittany too. She divorced Ranulf in 1199 and took a third husband, Guy de Thouars, who ran the Richmond estates, but may not necessarily have been recognized as Earl of Richmond. Guy sided with the King of France against King John of England in 1203, whereupon his English lands were forfeited, after which the question as to whether he enjoyed recognition as Earl hardly arises.

# Note: EARLDOM OF RICHMOND (I)

# Note:

    ALAN III the Black (Niger), a count of Brittany and EARL OF RICHMOND, 2nd son of Stephen, born before 1100. He seems to have been marked out as the successor to his father's English lands. In 1139 an unnamed nephew of his was killed at the King's court by the servants of Roger, Bishop of Salisbury, and of the Bishops of Lincoln and Ely, and Alan urged the King to reprisals, thus contributing to the fall of the bishops. In 1140 he seized the castle of "Galclint" with its treasure, ejecting William d'Aubigny therefrom; he afterwards built a castle at "Hotun," being land of the Bishop of Durham, and ravaged Ripon and the property of the archbishopric of York. In the same year, 1140, King Stephen deprived Reynold de Dunstanville, illegitimate son of Henry I, of his lands in Cornwall and,gave the county, (patriam) to Alan, who seems to have had some claim to it as heir of his uncle Brian; he thereupon became, or at any rate assumed the style of EARL OF CORNWALL. He fought on the side of Stephen at the battle of Lincoln, 2 February 1141, but was put to flight at the outset by the charge of the "Disinherited." Later in the same year he was taken prisoner by Ranulf, Earl of Chester, who forced him to do homage and to surrender the Earldom of Cornwall to Reynold de Dunstanville. At Christmas 1141 he was with the King at Canterbury, where as comes Alanus he witnessed the King's second charter for Geoffrey de Mandeville. After Easter 1142 a tournament between him and William, Count of Aumale, was stopped by the King. In 1143 he invaded the church of Ripon and insulted Archbishop William at the tomb of St. Wilfred. In or shortly before 1145 he issued two charters of confirmation for the abbey of Jervaulx, adding a gift of common of pasture. In 1145 he crossed to Brittany, whence he never returned, and later in the year at Quimper issued a charter confirining the abbey of St. Melaine at Rennes in its rights over the church of St. Sauveur at Guingamp and over their possessions in England. In Brittany he executed two other charters, which have survived, one at Rennes on 6 January 1146 and the other at Ploërrnel.

# Note:

    He married Bertha, daughter of Conan III, DUKE OF BRITTANY, by Maud, illegitimate daughter of HENRY I. He, died in Brittany, 15 September 1146, and was buried at Bégard. His widow married, 2ndly, in or before 1148, Eudon, VICOMTE OF PORHOËT, who on the death of Conan III in 1148 was recognised as Duke of Brittany jure uxoris; she had Costessy and othcr lands in Norfolk In dower, and was living in 1162, but dead in 1167. [Complete Peerage X:788-91)

# Note: -----------------

    Alan Niger was an active partisan of King Stephen in his contest with the Empress Maud. In 1142, he took the castle of Lincoln, with considerable treasure, from Ranulph, Earl of Chester, by scaling the walls at night. He also garrisoned the castle of Hotun, in Yorkshire, then part of the bishop of Durham's possessions, and made great spoil at Ripon upon the demesnes and tenants of thearchbishop of York. This Alan Niger, who is described as a most deceitful, wicked person, wrote himself Earl of Brittany, Cornwall, and Richmond; but notwithstanding that character, he appears, like his progenitors, to have been a munificent benefactor to the church. His lordship m. Bertha, dau. and heir of Conan le Gros, the 3rd Duke of Bretagne (and by this marriage acquired the title of Duke of Brittany) and had issue, Conan le Petit, his successor, Brian, Guy, and Reginald. He d. in 1165 and was s. by his eldest son. [Sir Bernard Burke, Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited, and Extinct Peerages, Burke's Peerage, Ltd., London, 1883, p. 162, de Dreux, Earls of Richmond]

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

    In the summer of 1140, Stephen with his amazingly consistent energy against new threats, brought an army to Cornwall to regain his own lands there. He recovered all the castles which had fallen into the hands of Reginald, illegitimate son of Henry I, with the exception of the one Reginald himself inhabited. Stephen introduced his own loyal supporter, Alan of Penthièvre, into Cornwall, gave the recovered lands into his hands, and shortly afterwards created him Earl of Cornwall. However, Matilda gave Reginald the same title, and the two rival earls were left to contest their claims. In February, 1141, Alan fought alongside Stephen at the Battle of Lincoln. After the defeat of Stephen's forces, Alan continued to fight on and tried to ambush Ranulf of Chester but was captured, put in chains and tortured in a dungeon until he submitted to Ranulf, did homage to him, and handed over his castles. Another result of this humiliation for Alan was that it confirmed that his rival in the west country, Reginald, would keep the earldom of Cornwall.
