  genealogical chart following p 260. same, p. 85:  Robert had no issue by Isabella, so that o n his death on 21 August 1193, the first Lacy line came to an end."     From same, p 85-86 :  "Robert seems to have been allowed to inherit the honour as soon as his father's death bec ame known.  He left no heirs, and, as there were no other surviving heirs of either Henry o r Ilbert II, the succession devolved on the great-grandson of Henry's sister Aubrey, Roger 'H elle', constable of Chester, who took the name Lacy when he was allowed to inherit the lands .  He had to pay a relief of three thousand marks, three times the amount that Robert had pai d sixteen years before.  Thus the honours of Halton and Widnes became joined to those of Pont efract and Clitheroe built up by the first Lacy line, the whole forming the basis of the powe r of the earls of Lincoln in the next century."
