Eve/Eva (d1246) married William De Braose (Briouze), son of Reginald De Br
aose, before 1219. They had four daughters, and William De Braose was hang
ed by Llywelyn ap Iorwerth in 1230. The stated reason for the hanging w
as the accusation that William had dallied with Llywelyn’s wife Joan, bast
ard of King John. This does not withstand close scrutiny, and William w
as in all probability hung for the crimes of his grandfather, William De B
raose lord of Bramber and Abergavenny, against the Welsh.
Eve’s and De Braose’s daughters were: Maud/Matilda (d1301) who married Rog
er De Mortimer of Wigmore; Isabel (d?) who married (1229) David (d1246), s
on of Llywelyn ap Iorwerth; Eve (d125 5) who married William De Cantelo
u; and Eleanor (d c 1250) who married Humphr ey De Bohun earl of Herefor
d. It is worth noting that Eve’s daughter, Isabel, was married to the s
on of the man who had hung her father. Her fate is not known except for t
he fact that she and David had no children. There are records of letters b
etween Isabel’s uncle William, her mother Eve, and Llywelyn about her marr
iage contract to David after her father’s death. Given the time period a
nd known practices, it must be assumed that Isabel’s uncle, William, decid
ed that the marriage was necessary for the good of the feudal family.

After Llewelyn Fawr had hanged Eva's husband, William, he wrote letters (s
ee translations) to her and her brother, William, Earl of Pembroke. He w
as enquiring whether the marriage between his son, Dafydd, and Isabel
la De Braose should still go ahead. Evidently they agreed that it shoul
d. Nevertheless Llewelyn and Dafydd were never satisfied with the distribu
tion of William's lands among his four heiresses and this led to further a
rmed conflicts in the marches.
Eva continued to hold Braose lands and castles in her own right after t
he death of her husband. Dugdale mentions her as holder of Totnes in 123
0. It is recorded in the Close Rolls (1234-7) that Henry III granted 12 ma
rks to her to strengthen the castle at Hay.
Father: William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, Earl Marshal and Rege
nt of England during the minority of Henry III. He died in May 1219 a
nd is buried in the Temple Church, London. (right)
