Narrative

Name Prefix:<NPFX> Lord
Name Suffix:<NSFX> Iii, Earl Of Leicester "Blanchmains"

Robert de Beaumont is list ed as one of the knights accompanying Willam
the Conqueror on his invasion of England in 1066. It is not known whether
this Robert was in fact one and the same, although the dates do
coincide.--------
Source: This is taken from th e plaque in the church at Dives-sur-Mer,
Normandy, France, where William the Conqueror and his knights said mass
before setting sail to invade England in 1066. It lists all the knights
who took part in the invasion.
The concepts a s we know them was not very well developed . An individual
either took the na me of the village where they lived [this would
generally be the case for thos e starting with "de"], or else the surname
was a nickname, depicting certain characteristics e.g. Alain le Roux
[Alain of the red hair], Raoul Vis-de-Loup [Raoul wolf-face] etc. In
other cases, it could be the father's name, in the format "fils de__"
[son of__]. This in later years became "Fitz__", as in th e name Fitzjohn"
etc.
The spellings were often different then. For example " Bunker" comes from
the French Bon-Coeur ["Good-Heart}. This would have been w ritten
"Cor-bon" in Norman French. Also the bishop of Bayeux, who is normally
know as "Odo", is listed under the French spelling of "Eaude".
