General Notes
WILLIAM DE MOHUN, 2nd but 1st surviving son and heir. He comes into notice first circa 1142, when he attested his father's charter to Bruton. The Empress Maud's grant of an earldom to his father apparently was not recognised by Stephen, for William is never styled Earl. He was a benefactor to his father's foundation at Bruton and confirmed the gifts of his father and grandfather to Bath. He married Godehold, sometimes called Godeheut. He died in 1176. His widow appears to have been dead in 1186. [Complete Peerage IX:18, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
William III and
Godehuet were married in a religious ceremony before 1160. They had a son named
William IV.
