General Notes:
WILLIAM de Mandeville (-[1116]). "Godefridus de Magnavilla" founded Hurley Priory, Berkshire, for the souls of "uxoris meĉ Lecelinĉ
", by undated charter witnessed by "Lecelina domina uxor mea, Willielmus de Magnavilla
". "Walterus de Gant, filius et hĉres Gisilberti de Gant" restored Bardney Abbey in 1115, witnessed by "Roberto de ---, Willielmo nepote meo constabulario Cestriĉ, Willielmo de Mandevill
".
m ([1100/05]) as her first husband, MARGUERITE, daughter of EUDES de Rie, dapifer, of Colchester, Essex & his wife Rohese ---. The Genealogia Fundatoris of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "Margareta"as daughter of "Eudoni dapifero Regis Normanniĉ", adding that she married "Willielmo de Mandavill" by whom she was mother of "Gaufridi filii comitis Essexiĉ et iure matris Normanniĉ dapifer". According to the Complete Peerage, this genealogy is "probably erroneous"but it does not explain the basis for the doubts. She married secondly ([1116/19]) Ottiwell. This second marriage is suggested by the charter dated [1141/42] under which Empress Matilda made various grants of property including a grant to "Willelmo filio Otuel fratri
Comitis Gaufredi". The only contemporary Ottiwell who has so far been identified was Ottiwell FitzHugh, illegitimate son of Hugh Earl of Chester.
William & his wife had [three] children: Geoffrey, Beatrix and [Alice]. 1
William married someone Marguerite de Rie, daughter of Eudes de Rie and Rohese FitzRichard de Clare, between 1100 and 1105. (Marguerite de Rie was born between 1080 and 1090 1.)
