• Notes

  He was alive during the reign of Henry III. Henry was King from 1216-1272. Land at Billeson was given to his heirs in 1234, to me suggesting he might have died by then. His wife, Anne, "Relic of Robert" held about half a fee at Tilton around the year 1240 again indicating same. I've seen his death published as 1250, but that doesn't fit with these two patterns.
