=== Life Sketch ===
Isabel de Clare, suo jure 4th Countess of Pembroke and Striguil (c. 1172 - 11 March 1220), was an Anglo-Irish noblewoman and one of the wealthiest heiresses in Wales and Ireland.[1] She was the wife of William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, who served three successive kings as Marshal of England. Her marriage had been arranged by King Richard I.
Isabel was one of two known legitimate children of Earl Richard "Strongbow". Isabel may have been older than her brother Gilbert, who was born in 1173 but died a teenager soon after 1185, at which point Isabel became the heir to her parents' great estates in England, Wales and Leinster. Her mother was the daughter of Diarmait Mac Murchada, the deposed King of Leinster and Mór ingen Muirchertaig. The latter was a daughter of Muirchertach Ua Tuathail and Cacht ingen Loigsig. The marriage of Strongbow and Aoife took place in August 1170, the day after the capture of Waterford by the Cambro-Norman forces led by Strongbow.[2]
Isabel's paternal grandparents were Gilbert de Clare, 1st Earl of Pembroke, and his wife Isabel de Beaumont. Deprived of his father Gilbert's estate of Pembrokeshire by the king in 1153 when he succeeded as a child, Richard Strongbow continued to assert he was an earl, but took his title as Striguil (the Welsh name for the lordship of Chepstow, centre of his estates in the southern March of Wales).[3] The earldom of Pembroke was not forgotten however, and in 1199 it was recreated and awarded to Isabel's husband, William Marshal, undoubtedly on the basis of Isabel's hereditary claim to it. In this way, Isabel could be said to be the successor in the earldom of Pembroke to her grandfather Gilbert, the first earl, especially as her husband before 1199 was meticulous in referring to her as 'Countess Isabel'.[4]
Isabel was described as having been "the good, the fair, the wise, the courteous lady of high degree".[5] She allegedly spoke French, Irish and Latin.[6] After her brother Gilbert's death, Isabel became one of the wealthiest heiresses in the kingdom, owning besides the titles of Pembroke and Striguil, much land in Wales and Ireland.[1] She also had a hereditary claim on the numerous castles on the inlet of Milford Haven, guarding the St George's Channel, including Pembroke Castle.[1] She was a ward of King Henry II, who carefully watched over her inheritance, and who we find in 1189 had confided her to the keeping of Ranulf de Glanville chief justiciar of England.[7]
Marriage
The new King Richard I arranged her marriage in August 1189 to William Marshal, regarded by many as the greatest knight and soldier in the realm. Henry II had promised Marshal he would be given Isabel as his bride, and his son and successor Richard upheld the promise one month after his accession to the throne. At the time of her marriage, Isabel was residing in the Tower of London in the protective custody of the Justiciar of England, Ranulf de Glanville.[5] Following the wedding, which was celebrated in London "with due pomp and ceremony",[5] they spent their honeymoon at Stoke d'Abernon in Surrey which belonged to Enguerrand d'Abernon.[8]
Marriage to Isabel elevated William Marshal from the status as military captain and knight into one of the richest men in the kingdom. He would serve as Lord Marshal of England, four kings in all: Henry II, Richard I, John, and Henry III. Although Marshal did not become Earl of Pembroke until 1199 - a revival of the title by King John as an act of favour - he nevertheless assumed overlordship of Leinster in Ireland and the Marcher lordships of Chepstow and Usk with Isabel's many other estates in several English counties, which belonged to her father's and her own earldom of Striguil.
Marshal and Isabel did not sail to Ireland till 1200, after taking possession of Pembroke. He left her behind him on his return to England.[9] She may have ruled Leinster in his absence till as late as 1203, with as her seneschal a Wiltshire knight, Geoffrey fitz Robert, who was married to Isabel's aunt, Basilia, a sister of Strongbow.[10] Isabel is credited with playing a major part at this time in the foundation of the borough known as New Ross.[11] Isabel was again left to rule Leinster in 1207-8 during her husband's house arrest at the court of King John when, though pregnant, she successfully led the campaign which defeated the rebel barons of the province.[12]
The marriage was happy, despite the vast difference in age between them. William Marshal and Isabel produced a total of five sons and five daughters.[1]
Widowhood
Isabel lived as a widow for only ten months after the death of William Marshal, though it was by no means an uneventful period, which has left a good deal of evidence as to how a great heiress such as she was, managed her affairs when she came into full control of her inheritance. She wrote within days to the papal legate and the justiciar of England asking for prompt delivery of her lands, and on 18 June 1219 the justiciar issued writs ordering local officers to hand over, to her, control of her inheritance in four English counties and in Ireland. Pembroke is not mentioned, which hints that her eldest son may have directly inherited the earldom as it may have been treated as a royal grant to his father, not as part of his mother's inheritance. The marcher lordship of Striguil also came to her. In July she was in France, where she successfully negotiated with King Philip Augustus the possession of her Norman inheritance. While there, she and her son opened negotiations with the king for the marriage of the younger William Marshal with his first cousin, a ploy which caused panic at the English court and a counter-offer of marriage to King Henry III's youngest sister Eleanor.[13] There is evidence that she made good use of her eldest son as her agent in managing the great estates that were hers to dispose of in the months she had them, both of them stonewalling her late husband's executors to avoid paying the debts he left. In February 1220 she was mortally ill at Chepstow, and on 2 March her son is found at Cirencester en route to Wales to attend her deathbed. Tintern Abbey sources give her death as 11 March 1220.[14] She was buried in the north choir aisle of the family abbey of Tintern, next to her mother Aiofe.[15]

=== Isabel de Clare, suo jure Countess of Pe ===
Isabel de Clare, suo jure Countess of Pembroke and Striguil (1172?1220), was a Cambro-Norman-Irish noblewoman and one of the greatest heiresses in Wales and Ireland. She was the wife of William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, who served four successive kings as Lord Marshal of England. Her marriage had been arranged by King Richard I.
It has been suggested that she was responsible for the commission of the Song of Dermot, a 13th century composition which narrates the exploits of her father, Strongbow and grandfather, Dermot MacMurrough.
Isabel was born in 1172 in Ireland, the eldest child of Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke (1130 ? 20 April 1176), known to history as Strongbow, and Aoife of Leinster, the daughter of Dermot MacMurrough, King of Leinster and Mor O'Toole. The latter was a daughter of Muitchertach O'Toole and Cacht Inion Loigsig O'Morda. The marriage of Strongbow and Aoife took place in August 1170, the day after the capture of Waterford by the Cambro-Norman forces led by Strongbow, and abetted by Dermot MacMurrough.
Isabel's paternal grandparents were Gilbert de Clare, 1st Earl of Pembroke and Isabella de Meulan. She had a younger brother Gilbert de Striguil, who died at the age of twelve having succeeded their father in 1176 as the 3rd Earl of Pembroke. She also had an illegitimate half-sister Basile de Clare, who married three times. Basile's husbands were: Robert de Quincy; Raymond Fitzgerald, Constable of Leinster: Geoffrey FitzRobert, Baron of Kells.
Isabel was described as having been "the good, the fair, the wise, the courteous lady of high degree". She allegedly spoke French, Irish and Latin. After her brother Gilbert's death in 1185, Isabel became one of the wealthiest heiresses in the kingdom, owning besides the suo jure titles of Pembroke and Striguil, much land in Wales and Ireland. She inherited the numerous castles on the inlet of Milford Haven, guarding the South Channel, including Pembroke Castle. She was a legal ward of King Henry II, who carefully watched over her inheritance.
The new King Richard I arranged her marriage in August 1189 to William Marshal, regarded by many as the greatest knight and soldier in the realm. Henry II had promised Marshal he would be given Isabel as his bride, and his son and successor Richard upheld the promise one month after his accession to the throne. At the time of her marriage, Isabel was residing in the Tower of London in the protective custody of the Justiciar of England, Ranulf de Glanville. Following the wedding, which was celebrated in London "with due pomp and ceremony", they spent their honeymoon at Stoke d'Abernon in Surrey which belonged to Enguerrand d'Abernon.
Marriage to Isabel elevated William Marshal from the status as a landless knight into one of the richest men in the kingdom. He would serve as Lord Marshal of England, four kings in all: Henry II, Richard I, John, and Henry III. Although Marshal did not become the jure uxoris 1st Earl of Pembroke, Earl of Striguil until 1199, he nevertheless assumed overlordship of Leinster in Ireland, Pembroke Castle, Chepstow Castle, as well as Isabel's other castles in Wales such as the keep of Haverford, Tenby, Lewhaden, Narberth, Stackpole.
Shortly after their marriage, Marshal and Isabella arrived in Ireland, at Old Ros, a settlement located in the territory which belonged to her grandfather, Dermot MacMurrough. A motte was hastily constructed, a medieval borough quickly grew around it, and afterwards the Marshals founded the port town by the river which subsequently became known as New Ross. The Chronicles of Ros, which are housed in the British Museum, described Isabella and Marshal's arrival in Ireland and records that Isabella set about building a lovely city on the banks of the Barrow.
In 1192, Isabel and her husband assumed the task of managing their vast lands; starting with the rebuilding of Kilkenny Castle and the town, both of which had been damaged by the O'Brien clan in 1173. Later they commissioned the construction of several abbeys in the vicinity.
The marriage was happy, despite the vast difference in age between them. William Marshal and Isabel produced a total of five sons and five daughters.

=== Wikipedia Biography ===
Isabel de Clare, suo jure 4th Countess of Pembroke and Striguil (1172–1220), was a Cambro-Norman-Irish noblewoman and one of the wealthiest heiresses in Wales and Ireland. She was the wife of William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, who served four successive kings as Lord Marshal of England. Her marriage had been arranged by King Richard I.
Isabel was born in 1172 in Pembrokeshire, Wales, the eldest child of Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke (1130 – 20 April 1176), known to history as "Strongbow", and Aoife of Leinster, who was the daughter of Diarmait Mac Murchada, the deposed King of Leinster and Mór ingen Muirchertaig. The latter was a daughter of Muirchertach Ua Tuathail and Cacht ingen Loigsig. The marriage of Strongbow and Aoife took place in August 1170, the day after the capture of Waterford by the Cambro-Norman forces led by Strongbow.
Isabel's paternal grandparents were Gilbert de Clare, 1st Earl of Pembroke, and his wife Lady Isabel de Beaumont. She had a younger brother Gilbert de Striguil who, being a minor, was not formally invested with either the earldom of Pembroke or of Striguil. It is unlikely that his father could have passed on the title to Pembroke as he himself did not possess it. When Gilbert died in 1185, Isabel became Countess of Pembroke in her own right (suo jure) until her death in 1220. In this way, she could be said to be the first successor to the earldom of Pembroke since her grandfather Gilbert, the first earl. By this reckoning, Isabel ought to be called the second countess, not the fourth countess of Pembroke. In any event, the title Earl was re-created for her husband. She also had an illegitimate half-sister Basile de Clare, who married three times. Basile's husbands were: Robert de Quincy; Raymond Fitzgerald, Constable of Leinster: Geoffrey FitzRobert, Baron of Kells.

The marriage was happy, despite the vast difference in age between them.
William Marshal and Isabel produced a total of five sons and five daughters.
1. William Marshal, 2nd Earl of Pembroke (1190 – 6 April 1231). Chief Justiciar of Ireland. He married firstly, Alice de Bethune, and secondly, Eleanor Plantagenet, daughter of King John.
2. Richard Marshal, 3rd Earl of Pembroke (1191 – 1 April 1234 Kilkenny Castle, Ireland), married Gervase le Dinant. He died childless.
3. Maud Marshal (1192 – 27 March 1248). She married firstly, Hugh Bigod, 3rd Earl of Norfolk, by whom she had issue; she married secondly, William de Warenne, 5th Earl of Surrey, by whom she had issue, including John de Warenne, 6th Earl of Surrey who married Alice le Brun de Lusignan; she married thirdly, Walter de Dunstanville. Five queen consorts of Henry VIII: Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr were her descendants.
4. Gilbert Marshal, 4th Earl of Pembroke (1194 – 27 June 1241). He married firstly, Marjorie of Scotland, daughter of King William I of Scotland; and secondly, Maud de Lanvaley. He died childless.
5. Walter Marshal, 5th Earl of Pembroke (1196 – 24 November 1245). He married Margaret de Quincy, Countess of Lincoln, widow of John de Lacy, 1st Earl of Lincoln, as her second husband. The marriage was childless.
6. Anselm Marshal, 6th Earl of Pembroke (1198 – 22 December 1245). He married Maud de Bohun. He died childless.
7. Isabel Marshal (9 October 1200 – 17 January 1240). She married firstly, Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Hertford; and secondly, Richard, 1st Earl of Cornwall. She had issue by both marriages. King Robert I of Scotland and Queen consorts Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr were descendants.
8. Sibyl Marshal (1201 – before 1238), married William de Ferrers, 5th Earl of Derby, by whom she had issue. Queen consort Catherine Parr was a descendant.
9. Joan Marshal (1202–1234), married Warin de Munchensi, Lord of Swanscombe, by whom she had issue. Both queen consorts Jane Seymour and Catherine Parr were descendants.
10. Eva Marshal (1203–1246), married William de Braose (died 1230). Queen consorts Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard, and Catherine Parr were her descendants.
Isabel died in Pembrokeshire, Wales in 1220 at the age of forty-eight. Her husband had died the year before. She was buried at Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire. However, a cenotaph was discovered inside St. Mary's Church, New Ross, Ireland, whose slab bears the partial inscription "ISABEL: LAEGN" and her engraved likeness.
It was suggested in 1892 by Paul Meyer that Isabel might have encouraged the composition of the Song of Dermot, which narrates the exploits of her father and maternal grandfather. However, the Song of Dermot as now known was composed a few years after her death (though based on earlier writings).
Although her daughters had many children, Isabel's five sons, curiously, died childless. This is supposedly attributed to a curse placed upon William Marshal by the Irish Bishop of Ferns, Albin O'Molloy. The title of marshal subsequently passed to Hugh de Bigod, husband of Isabel's eldest daughter Maud, while the title of Earl of Pembroke went to William de Valence, 1st Earl of Pembroke, the husband of Joan de Munchensi, daughter of Joan Marshal. He was the first of the de Valence line of the earls of Pembroke.
Within a few generations their descendants included much of the nobility of Europe, including all the monarchs of Scotland since Robert I (1274-1329) and all those of England, Great Britain and the United Kingdom since Henry IV (1367-1413); and, apart from Anne of Cleves, all the queen consorts of Henry VIII.

=== Background information concerning some issues and misconceptions about the Vaux family ===
There appears to be considerable confusion in some historical records, as well as in many private records, concerning the pedigree line of the Vaux (also spelled Valle and Vallibus) family in England. It is clear from historical records (for example: The Battle Abbey Roll; the Foundation for Medieval Genealogy; Burke’s Peerages of England: Extinct, Dormant and in Abeyance; Burke’s Genealogical and Heraldic Dictionary of the Landed Gentry; Burke's The Roll of Battle Abbey; The Domesday Book; and British History Online) that the Vaux line in England begins with Harold de Vaux, who accompanied William the Conqueror to England in 1066, Harold himself being accompanied by at least three sons: Hubert (Hubert I), Ranulph and Robert (Robert I) de Vaux. Some records also seem to suggest a possible fourth son named Aitard de Vaux. Harold de Vaux must have been born sometime before 1020 (and some private records suggest 1010) to have had three adult sons accompanying William the Conqueror in 1066. Those three sons must have been born by at least the 1040s to be adults by 1066. It is noted that The Domesday Book of 1086 only lists two members of the Vaux family: Robert de Vaux I and Aitard de Vaux. Harold, Hubert I and Ranulph do not appear in the Domesday Book, suggesting they were already deceased by 1086, or had returned to Normandy in France. In any case, those three original members of the Vaux family in England do not appear to be in England in 1086.
Many records, particularly private records, but even some historical records, suggest that Hubert de Vaux I was given the Barony of Gillesland in Cumberland on the Scottish border by William the Conqueror. THAT IS SIMPLY IN ERROR. Ranulph le Meschines was named Earl of Chester (or Earl of Cumberland) by William the Conqueror and Ranulph le Meschines divided his county into several Baronies, including Gillesland. The Barony of Gillesland was granted to one Hubert de Vaux, but that was not until very nearly 1130, long after William the Conqueror’s death in 1087. The Conqueror’s son, Henry I, was the king at the time Gillesland was granted to one Hubert de Vaux and that could not have been Hubert de Vaux I who would have been in his late 80s or early 90s, if he were still living. The Hubert de Vaux who received Gillesland must be someone that should be referred to as Hubert de Vaux II. Hubert de Vaux II died in either 1164 or 1167 (the records don’t all agree on the date) and if that were Hubert de Vaux I he would be over 120 years of age.
It appears from historical records that there are two different possible pedigrees for Hubert de Vaux II. Burke's Peerages of England: Extinct, Dormant, and in Abeyance reports that Hubert de Vaux I (who accompanied William the Conqueror to England) had a son Robert, who was the founder of the Priory of Pentney in Normandy. That Robert had two sons: Robert, who died without posterity, and Ranulph. Ranulph had a son Robert, who had a son Hubert (Hubert II?). However, the Foundation for Medieval Genealogy reports that Robert de Vaux I (who accompanied William the Conqueror to England and was the brother of Hubert de Vaux I named above) was the founder of the Priory of Pentney, but in Norfolk, England, and not in Normandy. He had a son William who had a son Robert (Robert II) who had seven sons, one of whom was named Hugh, which might be a misinterpretation of Hubert. Thus, it is not entirely possible to correctly identify Hubert de Vaux II. Burke's Peerages of England, cited above, places that Hubert de Vaux as the son to Robert de Vaux who was living in the time of King John (died 1216), much too late to be the Hubert de Vaux of the Barony of Gillesland about 1130.
The record entry in the Battle Abbey Roll about the Vaux family appears to confuse the two Huberts (Hubert I and Hubert II) [See documents in the Memories section of Hubert de Vaux II]. That entry begins with Hubert de Vaux (Hubert II) who is reported “to be the grandson of the founder of Pentney Priory” (presumably the Pentney in Norfolk, England). Pentney Priory was established by one Robert de Vaux about 1130 and Robert de Vaux I and his son (perhaps grandson?) Robert de Vaux II were both buried there. It is not exactly clear which Robert founded the Priory, but from the date of 1130, it would seem quite likely that would be Robert I rather that Robert II, which is entirely possible since Robert I, being the youngest son of Harold de Vaux who accompanied William the Conqueror to England in 1066, was likely born by 1045 and would have been in his 80s. Robert I could have founded the Priory very shortly before his death and then been buried there. In any case, the Hubert de Vaux II who obtained the Barony of Gillesland is the grandson (or perhaps actually great grandson?) of Robert de Vaux I and the son of Robert de Vaux II. He is not the Hubert de Vaux who is the older brother of Robert de Vaux I and who is not found in the Domesday Book.
The historical records also do not all agree on the details concerning the family of Robert de Vaux I. The Foundation for Medieval Genealogy reports Robert’s wife is named Agnes and that they had four children (sons): Roger, William, Oliver and Henry and that William was the founder of Pentney Priory and was the father of Robert II, Adam and William II. British History Online appears to disagree somewhat and reports Robert de Vaux I is the founder of Pentney Priory and he founded the Priory “for the souls of Agnes his wife, and their children”, and that entry also names William as the oldest of three sons, not four sons, and reports he was succeeded by his son Robert (Robert II), as William “took holy orders”. The next in the line appears to be John de Vaux “great-grandson of Robert” (presumably Robert I and likely the son of Robert II and grandson of William I). Another entry in British History Online reports that “Robert de Vallibus or Vaux, the youngest son of 3 brothers… was father of William, whose son Robert (Robert II) is said to have had 7 sons…” Only two of Robert’s (presumably Robert II) children are named in this entry: “Will., the eldest, dying without issue, was succeeded by his brother, Sir Oliver de Vaux… had 3 sons; Robert, who died young, William, the 2d, dying without issue, the inheritance came to the 3d brother, Sir John de Vaux…”. However, the Foundation for Medieval Genealogy [See document in the Memories section for Robert de Vaux II] does name the seven sons as follows: Robert, Oliver, John, Philip, Roger, Hugh (Hugonem) and William. There is no mention in either the British History Online or the Foundation for Medieval Genealogy entries of Hubert II being named as one of the seven sons of Robert II, but it appears that Hubert II must be one of the sons of Robert II if he is a grandson (likely great grandson) of Robert I, founder of Pentney Priory. It would appear that Hubert II is most likely one and the same person as the son named Hugh. Otherwise, Hubert II has no documented, unquestionable pedigree prior to his existence in later records associated with Gillesland, because it seems unlikely he could descend from Hubert I if Hubert I was gone before the time of the Domesday Book in 1086. Assuming that Hugh and Hubert II are, in fact, the same person, the Vaux pedigree of Hubert II would be as follows: Harold, father of Hubert I, Ranulph, and Robert I (and possibly Aitard), with Robert I being the father of William, father of Robert II, father of Hubert II, the sixth son, which seems very probable since Hubert II was reportedly born about 1105 and he would be the fourth generation from ROBERT I who had to have been born sometime before 1045.
The confusion with the Vaux pedigree, however, does not end with Hubert II. The Foundation for Medieval Genealogy reports that Hubert II married Grace (not further identified) and they had three children: Robert (his successor), Ranulph and William (all very common, often repeated names in the family). Many private records also report a daughter named Beatrice de Vaux as the daughter of Hubert II. However, it appears that no historical records link Beatrice to Hubert II, but he does seem to be the most likely person of the right age, in the right place, at the right time to be the father of Beatrice, suggesting, perhaps, that Beatrice was an illegitimate child and was thus left out of the historical records. Beatrice is certainly as well documented as any of the other family members. There are several documents confirming her marriage to William de Briwere and several additional documents confirming the marriages of her children with William de Briwere to their individual spouses [See documents in the Memories section of Beatrice de Vaux), but none of those records name her father.
Lacking any documentary evidence to the contrary that would suggest Beatrice is the daughter of someone other than Hubert de Vaux II, it seems prudent to leave her as Hubert’s daughter until documented proof demonstrates otherwise.

=== Royal Ancestry Biography ===
“Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
“WILLIAM MARSHAL, Knt., hereditary Marshal of England, Sheriff of Gloucestershire, 1189-94, 1198-1207, Sheriff of Sussex, 1193-1208, Warden of the Forest of Dean and Constable of St. Briavels Castle, 1194-1206, Constable of Lillebonne, 1202, Protector, Regent of the Kingdom, 1216-19, and, in right of his wife, Earl of Pembroke and Striguil, Lord of Leinster, probably born in 1146. In 1152 his father gave him as a hostage to King Stephen at the Siege of Newbury. At a later date, his father sent him to his cousin, William de Tancarville, Chamberlain of Normandy, with whom he remained for eight years as a squire. In 1167, while riding near the castle of Lusigan in Poitou with his uncle, Patrick, Earl of Salisbury, and Queen Eleanor, two of the Lusignan brothers attacked and killed Earl Patrick who was unarmed; William was wounded and taken prisoner while defending the Queen's retreat into the castle. Eventually he was ransomed by Queen Eleanor and returned to England. During the period, 1170-83, he was a member of the household of Henry "the Young King." In 1173 he supported Henry the Young King in his rebellion against King Henry II. Young Henry chose to knight him, and on his death bed in 1183, Henry charged him to carry his cross to the Holy Sepulchre. When William returned to England c.1187, King Henry II made him a member of his household. He was granted the manor of Cartmel, Lancashire by the king in 1187, where the following year he founded a priory for Regular canons of the order of St. Augustine. He was with King Henry II in France in 1188 and 1189. He was present at King Henry II's deathbed at Chinon in July 1189, and escorted the body to Fontevrault. He married in London in August 1189 ISABEL DE CLARE, daughter of Richard Fitz Gilbert [de Clare], 2nd Earl of Pembroke, by Eve, daughter of Dairmait Macmurchada, King of Leinster [see PEMBROKE 4 for her ancestry]. They had five sons, William, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke], Richard, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke], Gilbert, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke], Walter, Knt. [Earl of Pembroke and Lincoln], and Anselm [Earl of Pembroke], and five daughters, Maud, Isabel, Sibyl, Eve, and Joan. She was heiress in 1185-89 of her brother, Gilbert Fitz Richard (otherwise known as Gilbert de Strigoil). He was present at the Coronation of King Richard I in 1189, where he bore the gold scepter with the cross. Shortly afterwards he was appointed one of the subordinate Justiciars of England, first under Hugh, Bishop of Durham, and then under William de Longchamp. In 1190 he fined for 2,000 marks for a moiety of the lands of Walter Giffard, sometime Earl of Buckingham, including the manors of Chilton, Dorton, Long Crendon, and Loughton, Buckinghamshire, Caversham and Long Wittenham, Berkshire, and Wootton Rivers, Wiltshire, together with the fief of Longueville in Normandy. In 1191, when the Archbishop of Rouen superceded Longchamp, William became his chief assistant. When John, Count of Mortain (later King John) revolted in 1193, William besieged and took Windsor Castle. He was heir in 1194 to his elder brother, John Marshal, whereby he succeeded his brother as hereditary Master Marshal. He took part in the Siege of Nottingham Castle in 1194. From 1194 to 1199, he was almost continually in Normandy with King Richard I. One of Richard's last acts was to appoint him custodian of Rouen and the royal treasure there. He was present at the Coronation of King John in 1199. In 1200 the king confirmed the marshalship to him. He served John actively in Gascony, England, and Normandy. William may have paid a brief visit to Ireland in the winter of 1200-1. In 1201 he was granted a yearly fair to be held at the borough of Pembroke in Wales. In 1202 he loaned money to his kinsman, Geoffrey II, Count of Perche, who was preparing to go on crusade. In 1204 he was sent with Robert, Earl of Leicester as ambassadors to negotiate a truce with King Philippe Auguste of France. In 1204 he was granted a weekly market to be held in the vill of Castle Goodrich, Herefordshire. The same year he invaded Wales and captured Kilgerran. In 1206 he gave the Templars the advowson of the church of Speen, Berkshire. He spent most of his time in Ireland from 1207 to 1213. In 1213 he witnessed King John's charter of resignation to the Pope. He was given charge of the Castles of Haverfordwest, Carmarthen, Cardigan, and Gower, and Dunamase in Ireland. He was one of the few English earls to remain loyal to the king through the First Barons' War. He was one of the king's representatives at Runnymede in 1215. Following the death of King John in 1216, he was named by the king's council to serve as Regent of the Kingdom. In 1217 he routed the French and the rebel Barons at Lincoln. In Sept. 1217 he concluded the treaty of Lambeth with Prince Louis. In 1218 he was granted weekly markets to be held at his manors of Toddington, Bedfordshire, Speen, Berkshire, Long Crendon, Buckinghamshire, and Bosham, Sussex, and yearly fairs at Toddington, Bedfordshire and Sturminster Marshall, Dorset. During his lifetime, he founded and endowed monasteries at Voto (or Tintern Minor), Duiske (or Graig-na-Managh), and Kilkenny, in Ireland. He was also a benefactor to the chapter of Lisieux, the abbeys of Foucarmont, Gloucester, Tintern, Nutley, and St. Thomas, Dublin, the priories of Longueville, Bradenstoke, Pembroke, Pill, and Stanley, Holy Trinity and St. Kevin, Dublin, the Templars, and other religious bodies. SIR WILLIAM MARSHAL, Earl of Pembroke, died at Caversham, Berkshire 14 May 1219, and was buried in the Temple Church, London. His widow, Isabel, Countess of Pembroke, died 7 March 1220, and was buried at Tintern Abbey.

=== About Isabel de Clare ===
ISABEL de Clare (2 Nov 1226-after 10 Jul 1264). The Chronica de Fundatoribus et Fundatione of Tewkesbury Abbey records the births of “duas filias, Agnetam et Isabellam” to “Gilberto…Gloucestriæ et Hertfordiæ comes” and his wife “domina Isabella filia Willielmi Marescalli senioris, comitis de Pembroke”, after the birth of their older brothers[2001]. The Annals of Tewkesbury record the birth “IV Non Nov” in 1226 of “Gileberto de Clare comiti Glocestriæ…filia Ysabel”[2002]. The Annals of Tewkesbury record the marriage in May 1240 of “Isabella filia G. quondam comitis Gloucestriæ” and “Roberto de Brus”[2003]. A charter dated 18 Jun 1240 records that "the town of Rip" was given "as a marriage portion to Robert de Brus with Isabel, daughter of the earl of Gloucerster…the earl’s [G. Marshal Earl of Pembroke] niece"[2004]. m (May 1240) as his first wife, ROBERT de Brus, son of ROBERT de Brus "the Noble" Lord of Annandale & his wife Isabel of Huntingdon (-Lochmaben Castle 31 Mar 1295, bur 17 Apr Guisborough Priory). He succeeded his father in 1245 as Lord of Annandale.
Robert [V] & his first wife had two children:
1. ROBERT [VI] Bruce (Jul 1243-shortly before 4 Apr 1304, bur Abbey of Holm Cultram). The Annals of Tewkesbury record the birth in Jul 1243 of “filium nomine ---” to “Isabel de Clara…[et] R. de Brus”[1035]. The manuscript history of the Bruce family of Carleton records that “Robertus Brus quartus” succeeded “Robertus Brus tertius”[1036]. He succeeded his father in 1295 as Lord of Annandale.
2. RICHARD Bruce (-before 25 Jan 1287). Inquisitions following a writ dated 25 Jan "15 Edw I" following the death of "Richard de Brus...” record that his lands “ought to revert to Sir Robert his father...he died without heir of himself as he never took a wife”[1037]. A writ dated 6 May 1287 ordered the restitution of the lands of "Ricardum de Bruse" deceased to "Roberti de Bruse patri sui"[1038].

Isabella de Clare (2 November 1226 – 10 July 1264) was the daughter of Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Hertford and 5th Earl of Gloucester and Isabel Marshal. She is also known as Isabel de Clare, but this is however, the name of many women in her family.
Family
Isabella's maternal grandparents were William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke and his wife Isabel de Clare, 4th Countess of Pembroke. Isabella's paternal grandparents were Richard de Clare, 3rd Earl of Hertford and Amice FitzRobert.
Isabella was the fourth of six children, her brother was Richard de Clare, 6th Earl of Hertford. Her sister, Amice de Clare married Baldwin de Redvers, 6th Earl of Devon and was mother of Baldwin de Redvers, 7th Earl of Devon and Isabella de Fortibus, Countess of Devon.
Marriage
Isabella was married on 12 May 1240 (at age thirteen and a half) to Robert de Brus, 5th Lord of Annandale. Isabella brought to him the village of Ripe, in Sussex. Her husband was a candidate to become King of Scotland, after the death of the young Margaret, Maid of Norway. Her husband did not however succeed; Robert's rival, John Balliol was elected King of Scotland in 1292.
Robert and Isabella had up to six children:
Robert (1243–1304)
William, married Elizabeth de Sully, without issue
Bernard, married firstly Alicia de Clare and married secondly Constance de Morleyn

=== http://www.castlewales.com/mar_chld.html ===
http://www.castlewales.com/mar_chld.html William Marshal and Isabel de Clare were married in August 1189. He was about forty-three and she was seventeen years old. They had ten children; five sons and five daughters, and all of the children lived. The birth dates of these children are not known, but it is known that William and Richard were the first two born. They are both mentioned in a marriage contract dated November 6, 1203, that was a contract to marry William the younger to Baldwin de Bethunes daughter Alice, and if William should not live to fulfill the contract, then Richard would be married to her. It is known that William the younger was born in Normandy, but this is the only known fact of the birth of any of these children. Taking into consideration the ages of Marshal and Isabel, the frequency of Marshal being out of England accompanying the king and his army, and the survival of all ten of the children; it is possible to frame the births in terms of roughly sixteen to eighteen month intervals between 1190 and 1207. In 1207 Isabel would have been thirty-five years old and Marshal would have been in his sixties; this would be the possible age limit for both to have children in their time and age. I use this conjectured time frame to give some idea of the ages of the children when they married and when they died. Since William the younger was the first-born and was born in Normandy, it is possible that he was born during the winter of 1190/91 when his father was serving Richard in Normandy prior to Richards leaving on crusade. It is also possible that William and Isabel were in Normandy to take possession of Isabels half of the Giffard barony lands in Orbec and Longueville. During King Johns reign, William was a hostage for his fathers behavior in King Johns court from 1203-1212. William was in Roger fitz Rogers custody for some of this time, and in John de Erleys custody some of the time. William married Alice de Bethune, daughter of his fathers friend a nd companion, Baldwin de Bethune, in September 1214. The marriage apparently did not last very long for reasons unknown; Alice may have died ante 1215. In the baronial rebellion of 1215, the younger William was a member of those rebelling, and he was one of the sureties who signed the Magna Carta for the baronial side while his father was a signatory for the royal side. King John, hoping that Marshal could persuade his son to join the royalist side, provided a safe conduct for the young William to meet his father on April 9, 1216, under the protection of Aimery St. Maur, master of the Templars. The meeting did not result in young William changing sides, and he was one of the first barons to do homage to Louis of France when Louis arrived in England in May 1216. The young William was an active supporter of Louis, but when he took Worcester castle in July 1216, his father had apparently reached the limit of his own patience. William senior managed to warn his son to withdraw from Worcester, which he did just before Ranulf earl of Chester retook the castle for the royalist side. Sidney Painter, in his biography of William Marshal, has suggested the probability that Marshal not only tolerated his sons rebellion, but also may have abetted it as a logical part of his own political strategy. Marshal was known and respected by both King Phillip of France and his son Louis, and Marshal would have been well aware of the possibilities of Louis taking England with the support of the English barons rebelling against King John. In feudal times, a man would protect his lands and his family to the best of his ability, and Marshal could do this without breaking the bonds of his own fealty and homage to King John. William the younger might have taken Worcester for Louis knowing that his father would not tolerate such a seizure. In the autumn of 1216 the young William abandoned Louis cause and withdrew to Wales, not fighting for any side. In October 1216 King John died at Newark, and he was brought to and buried at Gloucester. It was at Gloucester that the young Henry was knighted by Marshal and anointed and crowned King Henry III by Peter des Roches, bishop of Winchester. William Marshal senior was elected regent for King Henry III at Winchester by the papal legate Gualo and the leading magnates of England. On November 12, 1216, at a great council in Bristol, Gualo, eleven bishops, Marshal, Ranulf of Chester, William de Ferrers, William of Aumale, and eighteen other leading barons re-issued the Great Charter under the seals of Gualo, as papal legate, and Marshal, as rector Regis et regni Angliae. In March 1217, William the younger and William I Longespee, natural son of Henry II and earl of Salisbury in right of his wife Ela, granddaughter of Patrick earl of Salisbury, met William Marshal senior of the road from Shoreham-by-Sea. In the next few days a series of letters were issued that gave the two men absolution from excommunication and defined the terms by which they returned to the side of Henry III. William the younger was with his father at the battle of Lincoln, May 20, 1217, which effectively signaled the end of Louis aspirations in England. From this time on, William served his father faithfully until William seniors death May 14, 1219, at Caversham. The young William succeeded to his fathers lands and offices peacefully and to his mothers vast holdings in 1220 on her death. Right:, Statue of Llywelyn ap Iorwerth, Conwy, north Wales In April 1222 Llwelyn ab Iorweth attacked and took Marshals castles of Carmarthen and Abertavy, and Marshal returned from Ireland to take them back. William built a new stone castle at Cilgerran and reestablished his hold on Kidwelly during this time. For the next two years there was intermittent local warfare between Llywelyn, Gruffydd ap Llwelyn, and Marshal until Llywelyn was forced to terms by the king. On April 23, 1224, William Marshal married the sister of King Henry III, Eleanor. She was only nine at the time of this marriage, and it seems that King Henry III married her to Marshal to keep Marshal from marrying into either a Normandy family and increasing his ties to his brother Richard or into the de Brus family and strengthening his ties to Scotland. One has to wonder what Williams father would have thought of the marriage of his son to a child of King John. William Marshal senior had always been aware of the delicate balance of power between a feudal baron and his king as overlord. It is very probable that William senior would have strongly disapproved of his son marrying into the royal family because it would have severely limited his sons ability to remain a baronial check against the possibility of royal abuse of law and power. In spring of 1224 Hugh de Lacy, who had been aiding and abetting Llywelyn in his wars against Marshal, decided to attack Marshals and the kings lands in Ireland. On May 2, 1224, William was appointed justiciar of Ireland and ordered to take into the kings peace all but de Lacy and the other major rebellious barons. In July 1224, Marshal took William de Lacys castle of Trim and the crannog of OReilly and sent his cousin William le Gras to take Hughs castle of Carrickfergus. Hugh surrendered to the King in October 1224 and was sent to England. Marshal remained justiciar of Ireland until June 22, 1226, when he surrendered his office to the king at Winchester. Right: tomb effigy of William Marshal, the younger, at Temple Church, London From 1228 on, William was mostly in England and high in the kings favor, and in August 1230, he accompanied the king to Brittany. William stayed in Brittany with Ranulf of Chester until February 1231, when he returned to England. In March of that year William arranged the marriage of his sister Isabel, widow of Gilbert de Clare, to Richard earl of Cornwall and brother to King Henry III. A few days after this marriage, William Marshal the younger died on April 6, 1231, at about the age of forty. There are no records of how William died, but Matthew Paris in his chronicles writes that later in King Henry IIIs reign Hubert de Burgh, justiciar of England, was accused of poisoning William Marshal. There are no other sources that agree with this, and there are no other records or chronicles that give any additional information regarding Williams death. William was buried near his father in the Temple Church in London on April 15, 1231. When William died, his brother Richard, who was his heir, was in France. Richard did not arrive in England until the end of July 1231. Roger of Wendover in his history writes that King Henry III tried to deny Richards right to seisin of his parents and brothers lands, titles, and offices on the advice of Hubert de Burgh, justiciar. He writes that Richard went immediately to Ireland to raise the military support he needed to take possession of his inheritance by force if necessary, and this action made Henry III grant him seisin. Wendover is the only chronicle that tells this story. Other chronicles state that Richard did homage and was granted investiture of all his lands on August 3, 1231. Richard had been granted the Giffard lands of Orbec and Longueville in Normandy by the wish of his father and the deed of his brother William in 1220. Richard also held lands in England and had been to England many times though he had spent most of the years between 1220 and 1231 in France caring for the Normandy lands and castles. Prior to 1224 Richard had married Gervase, daughter of Alan de Dinan, and had become in her right lord of Dinan and Viscount of Rohan in Brittany. One chronicle writes that Richard had received the best knightly and chivalric training in France and was the "marshal of the army of the King of France." After receiving investiture of his lands, Richard spent time in Ireland from November 1231 to June 1232. In the month of June 1232 Richard met King Henry III at Worcester and worked out an arrangement in regard to the dower r

Note: Isabel de Clare, suo jure 4th Countess of Pembroke and Striguil (c. 1172 – 11 March 1220), was an Anglo-Irish noblewoman and one of the wealthiest heiresses in Wales and Ireland.[1] She was the wife of William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, who served three successive kings as Marshal of England. Her marriage had been arranged by King Richard I. Isabel was one of two known legitimate children of Earl Richard "Strongbow". Isabel may have been older than her brother Gilbert, who was born in 1173 but died a teenager soon after 1185, at which point Isabel became the heir to her parents' great estates in England, Wales and Leinster. Her mother was the daughter of Diarmait Mac Murchada, the deposed King of Leinster and Mór ingen Muirchertaig. The new King Richard I arranged her marriage in August 1189 to William Marshal, regarded by many as the greatest knight and soldier in the realm. In February 1220 she was mortally ill at Chepstow, and on 2 March her son is found at Cirencester en route to Wales to attend her deathbed. Tintern Abbey sources give her death as 11 March 1220.
