    Note: REYNOLD FitzPiers, son of PIERS FitzHerbert & his wife Alice --- (-4/5 May 1286). "Reginald son of Peter" was granted rights in "demesne lands in Lechamstede, co. Berks" dated 26 Sep 1257[662]. "P. de Monte Forti" wrote to Henry III King of England, dated to [Dec 1262], reporting that he "found the Welsh march in great confusion" and names "dominorum Humfridi de Boun, Reginaldi filii Petri…"[663]. The Chronicle of Peterborough names "dominus Reginaldus filius Petri" among those sent to fight Llywelyn Prince of Wales in 1282[664]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 5 May "14 Edw I" following the death 5 May of "Reginald son of Peter” name “John his son aged 30 and more [...aged 28] is his next heir...Joan his wife who survives him”[665]. Eyton gives some details about his descendants in Shropshire[666]. m firstly ALICE, daughter of --- (-24 Aug 1265). The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified. m secondly as her third husband, JEANNE de Vivonne, widow firstly of INGRAM de Percy of Dalton Percy and secondly of AIMERY [XII] de Rochechouart, daughter of GUILLAUME de Vivonne "de Fortibus" & his wife Matilda de Ferrers ([1250/52]-1 Jun 1314[667]). The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "Johanna de Vynon, Cecilia de Bellocampo, Sibilla nupta Almarico de Archiaks in Piganra" as children of "Matilda de Kyme" third daughter of "Willielmo de Ferrers comiti Derbiæ" and his wife[668], although the other sources quoted below show that these children were born from Matilda’s second marriage not her third. Henry III King of England granted, 2 Aug 1259, "the wardship of the lands late of William de Fortibus" to "Ingram de Percy, Peter de Chauuvent and Imbert de Muntferaunt" and the marriages of the deceased’s four daughters, the eldest to Ingram[669]. The fact of her first marriage is confirmed by the grant, 10 Oct 1262, of the marriage of "the eldest daughter and one of the heirs of William de Fortibus, late the wife of Ingram de Percy" to Queen Eleanor[670]. Her second marriage is confirmed by the Somersetshire Pleas for 15 Jul 1269 which include a record that "Aunsell de Gurnay and his wife Sibyl" warranted "Emery de Roche Chaward, son of Emery de Roche Chaward, and Joan his wife, Sibyl, Mabel and Cecily, the daughters and heirs of William de Fortibus" relating to land in "Corfton"[671]. The absence of any further references to Jeanne with her second husband suggest that the marriage was dissolved or annulled soon afterwards. This is also suggested because there is no mention of Aimery’s two children in the documents relating to Jeanne’s inheritance, which would be appropriate if they were born from his otherwise unrecorded second marriage. Inquisitions following a writ dated 5 May "14 Edw I" following the death 5 May of "Reginald son of Peter” name “John his son aged 30 and more [...aged 28] is his next heir...Joan his wife who survives him”[672]. Edward I King of England granted, 15 Dec 1290, "letters to Joan de Vivonia, going beyond the seas, nominating Henry de Somery and Roger de Essex her attorneys for one year"[673], which suggests that her second husband had died and that Jeanne had subsequently settled in England. Edward I King of England granted, 4 Jul 1300, a licence for "Joan, late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant the manor of Chuyton to "Peter son of Reginald"[674]. Edward I King of England granted, 4 Jul 1300, a licence for "Joan, late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant the manor of Chuyton ("being her share of the inheritance of William de Fortibus") to "Peter son of Reginald"[675]. Her parentage and third marriage are confirmed by, firstly, a licence granted by the sheriff of Bedford 10 Jun 1304 for "Joan, late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant part of the manor of Luyton "being her purparty of the inheritance of Matilda de Kyme her mother" to "Reginald son of Peter", and a licence granted by the sheriff of Somerset 20 Jun 1304 for "Joan, late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant part of the manor of Midsummer Norton "her purparty of the inheritance of William de Fortibus her father" to "Reginald son of Reginald"[676]. A licence dated 1 Oct 1310 permitted "Joan de Vivonia" to grant parts of the manor of Oarbry, Ireland to "Reginald son of Reginald"[677]. Reynold & his first wife, Alice, had four children: 1. ALICE (-after 1305). A manuscript recording the founding of Boxgrove Priory, Sussex names "Alicia filia Reginaldi filii Petri" as the wife of “Johannem [de sancto Johanne]”[678]. m (before 29 Jun 1256) JOHN de St John, son of ROBERT de St John & his wife Agnes de Cantelou (-[20/29] Sep 1301). 2. ELEANOR (-after Jan 1283). m firstly JOHN de Mohun, son of JOHN de Mohun & his wife Joan de Ferrers of the Earls of Derby (-11 Jun 1279). m secondly WILLIAM Martin Lord Martin, son of ---. 3. JOHN FitzReynold ([1255/58]-before 10 Feb 1310). Inquisitions following a writ dated 5 May "14 Edw I" following the death 5 May of "Reginald son of Peter” name “John his son aged 30 and more [...aged 28] is his next heir...Joan his wife who survives him”[679]. He was summoned to Parliament in 1299, whereby he is held to have become Lord FitzReynold. m AGNES, daughter of --- (-after 7 Nov 1312). - LORDS FITZREYNOLD[680]. 4. WALTER FitzReynold (-1278 or after). According to Eyton, he was named as "Portioner of Pontesbury" in [1277/78], but the primary source which confirms this information has not yet been identified[681]. Reynold & his second wife, Jeanne, had four children: 5. PETER FitzReynold (-before 20 Sep 1326). A licence dated 18 Jul 1301, in consideration of a fine made by Peter son of Reginald, permitted "Joan late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant the manor of Chuyton to "Master James de Mohun", except the hamlet of Midsummer Norton retained by Joan for life, with remainders to "the said Peter, Reginald son of Reginald, and William son of Reginald, his brothers, with reversion to the next heirs of Joan"[682]. A pardon was issued 12 Feb 1330 to "William de Bathon, clerk and John de Bathon" for acquiring land in Pridie and Chiweton from "Peter son of Reginald"[683]. According to Eyton, he was "reputed ancestor of the Fitzherbert family and of the earls of Pembroke", but the primary sources which confirm this information have not yet been identified[684]. 6. REYNOLD FitzReynold (-[1 Oct 1310/20 Jan 1314]). A licence dated 18 Jul 1301, in consideration of a fine made by Peter son of Reginald, permitted "Joan late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant the manor of Chuyton to "Master James de Mohun", except the hamlet of Midsummer Norton retained by Joan for life, with remainders to "the said Peter, Reginald son of Reginald, and William son of Reginald, his brothers, with reversion to the next heirs of Joan"[685]. A licence dated 3 Dec 1308 permitted "Aymer de Archiaco" to grant parts of the manors of Wolveton, Dorset, Midsummer Norton, Somerset, and Luton, Bedfordshire to "Joan de Vivonia and Reginald her son for their lives, with remainder to the latter’s son John"[686]. A licence dated 1 Oct 1310 permitted "Joan de Vivonia" to grant parts of the manor of Oarbry, Ireland to "Reginald son of Reginald"[687]. m ---. The name of Reynold’s wife is not known. Reynold & his wife had one child: a) JOHN de Vivonne ([before 1295]-[20 Jan 1314/1 Jul 1315]). A licence dated 3 Dec 1308 permitted "Aymer de Archiaco" to grant parts of the manors of Wolveton, Dorset, Midsummer Norton, Somerset, and Luton, Bedfordshire to "Joan de Vivonia and Reginald her son for their lives, with remainder to the latter’s son John"[688]. A pardon was issued 20 Jan 1314 to "Hervey de Slaunton" for acquiring the manor of Littelhaghe, Suffolk from "John de Vivonia"[689]. m as her first husband, MARGERY, daughter of ---. A licence was granted 1 Jul 1315 for "Margery, late the wife of John de Vivonia" to marry whomsoever she will[690]. 7. WILLIAM FitzReynold . A licence dated 18 Jul 1301, in consideration of a fine made by Peter son of Reginald, permitted "Joan late the wife of Reginald son of Peter" to grant the manor of Chuyton to "Master James de Mohun", except the hamlet of Midsummer Norton retained by Joan for life, with remainders to "the said Peter, Reginald son of Reginald, and William son of Reginald, his brothers, with reversion to the next heirs of Joan"[691]. 8. BEATRICE FitzReynold (-after [1326]). "Beatrice de Vyvoyne of Winchester" petitioned the king [1326] to receive rent from "Hugh Poyns" for land in Chewton, Somerset, the right to which was granted to her by her mother "Joan de Vivoyne", and which was then in the king’s hands "by the minority of the heir" (from the context the heir of "Piers Fitz Renaud son and heir of Joan de Vyvonne")[692].
