The following corrects the above ancestry for Ermengarde (Constance was Richard's mother):
Some corrections and additions to the Complete Peerage: Volume 6: Huntingdon
HUNTINGDON
Volume 6, page 645 (as modified by volume 14):
He [William, King of Scotland (d. 1214)] m., 5 Sep. 1186, at Woodstock, Ermengarde, da. of Richard, VICOMTE DE BEAUMONT LA MAINE, by Constance, illegitimate da. of Henry I.
According to Complete Peerage, vol. 11, App. D, p. 116, Constance was the mother, not the wife, of Richard de Beaumont. This is supported by vol. 12, part 1, p. 768, note j (continued on p. 769), which prints an extract from a charter of confirmation of King John in 1199 to Constance de Tony [daughter of Richard de Beaumont], referring to her grandmother Constance as the daughter of Henry I.
[The contradiction was pointed out by Henry Sutliff in March 2003. Rosie Bevan provided the evidence from vol. 12, part 1, in November 2003]
