Hello all,
I have emailed this to Chris Phillips already, but thought it might be of
interest to others.
The notice for Henry de Montfort (d. in the spring of 1199) under Montfort
in CP Vol. 9, pp. 121-122 does not name his wife.
The only mention she receives is that "his widow was summoned to Westminster
to answer whether certain lands in dispute was her marriage portion or not"
(p. 122).
I looked at the Montfort pedigree in Dugdale's Antiquities of Warwickshire,
2nd edition (1730), vol. 2, p. 799.
The pedigree is not so good for the earlier generations - in an attempt to
reconcile the Montfort-sur-Risles and Montforts of Beaudesert it becomes
chronologically challenged.
The pedigree there names this Henry's wife as "Emma filia Petri Corbuceonis"
This identification is supported by Keats-Rohan's Domesday Descendants.
It has the following entry on page 250:
Corbucion, Petrus
Son of Peter fitz William Corbucion, alias Peter of Studley, Warwickshire.
In 1166 he held fees of the earl of Warwick and of earl Giffard. He left a
son William by his wife Margaret, and a daughter Emma, wife of Henry fitz
Turstin de Montfort. See Hist. Coll. Staffs. iii, 202.
(this main entry is followed by a separate smaller font reference list as
with other DD entries).
Hist. Coll. Staffs. is the abbreviation for William Salt Archaeological
Society, Collections for a History of Staffordshire.
As I said, I thought this might be of interest.
