| Note | Event Memos from GEDCOM Import... Residence Gundred, Countess of Surrey (died May 27, 1085) was probably born in Flanders, sister of Gerbod the Fleming, Earl of Chester. Historically, she has been made a daughter of William the Conqueror by his spouse Matilda of Flanders, (Bannerman, W.Bruce, FSA., editor, Miscellanea Genealogica et Heraldica, 4th series, London, 1912, vol.IV, p.207-209; Burke, John & John Bernard, The Royal Families of England, Scotland, and Wales with Their Descendants etc., vol.1, London, 1848 - 'Descendants of William the Conqueror', p.iv-v & pedigree LXVIII; Burke, John Bernard, The Roll of Battle Abbey, London, 1848, p.106; Barlow, Professor Frank, The Feudal Kingdom of England 1012 - 1216, London, 1955, pps:16 and 160) or of Matilda alone (Stapleton, Thomas, 'Observations in disproof of the pretended marriage of William de Warren, Earl of Surrey, with a daughter begotten of Matildis, daughter of Baldwin, Comte of Flanders, by William the Conqueror, and illustrative of the origin and early history of the family in Normandy', The Archaeological Journal 3 (1846):1-26) Gundred married William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey (d. June 20, 1088), who rebuilt Lewes Castle, making it his chief residence. In 1078 he and Gundred founded a Cluniac Priory at Southover, adjoining Lewes, where both were buried. The Countess had died at Castle Acre, Norfolk, one of her husband's estates. In the course of the centuries which followed both tombstones disappeared from the priory but in 1774 William Burrell, Esq., an antiquary, discovered Gundred's in Isfield Church (seven miles from Lewes), over the remains of Edward Shirley, Esq., (d. 1550), whose father John was Clerk of the Kitchen to King Henry VII, and had it removed on October 2, 1775, to St. John's Church, Southover, the nearest place to its original site, and placed inside and at the south-west corner of the church, where, until 1847, it could be seen on the floor between pews with a very fine inscription detailing its origins etc. In 1845, during excavations through the Priory grounds for the South Coast Railway, the lead chests containing the remains of the Earl and his Countess were discovered, and deposited temporarily, for the next two years, beneath Gundred's tombstone. In 1847 a Norman Chapel was erected by public subscription, adjoining the present vestry and chancel. Prior to re-interring the remains in this chapel, both cysts were opened to ascertain if there were any contents, which was found to be the case. New cysts were made and used, and the ancient ones preserved and placed in two recessed arches in the southern wall. Gundred's remains in a good state of preservation although the Earl's has lost some lead. Across the upper part of the right arch is the name Gvndrada. Her tombstone is of black marble. The children of William de Warenne and Gundred were: * William II de Warenne (d. May 11, 1138), buried in Lewes Priory. * Reginald de Warenne, an adherent of Robert of Normandy. * Edith de Warenne, married, firstly, Gerard, Baron de Gournay. |

| Residence | He resided Henry, 3rd Earl of Huntingdon, (1114 -1152) was a Prince of Scotland, of the House of Dunkeld, and an English peer. He was the son of King David I of Scotland and Maud, daughter of Waltheof, 1st Earl of Northumberland and Huntingdon, (beheaded 1075), by his spouse Judith of Normandy. It is said that Henry was named after his uncle, King Henry I of England. He had three sons, two of whom became King of Scotland, and a third whose descendants were to prove critical in the later days of the Scottish royal house. He also had three daughters. Henry married Adeline or Ada, the daughter of William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey (d.1138), and Elizabeth, daughter of Hugh of Vermandois, The Great. Their children were: * Ada of Huntingdon (1139 – 1206), married in 1161, Floris III, Count of Holland. * Margaret of Huntingdon (1140 – 1201), married in 1160 Conan IV, Duke of Brittany, (d.1171); Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford. * Malcolm IV of Scotland. * William I of Scotland. * David of Scotland, 8th Earl of Huntingdon. * Matilda of Huntingdon, born and died 1152. His eldest son became King of Scots as Malcolm IV in 1153. Henry's second son became king in 1165 on the death of his brother, reigning as William I. Both in their turn inherited the title of Earl of Huntingdon. His third son, David also became Earl of Huntingdon. It is from the 8th Earl that all Kings of Scotland after Margaret, Maid of Norway claim descent. On Henry's death his title passed to his half-brother Simon of St Liz.1 |
