=== Life Sketch ===
Biography
Birth and Parents
Alice Corbet, is shown as born Alcester, 1100, (b. 1115/20)
As noted above, Alice's estimated birth date suggests that she may have been born from a different marriage from her sister Sibyl, although it is possible that their estimated dates of birth could fall within the reproductive range of one woman.
1140 Marriage
She married (1140 or aft) William Boterel.
Eyton states that "Alice, daughter and eventual co-heir of Robert fitz Corbet married William Botterell of Cornwall", adding that the marriage must be dated to after 1140 as on her marriage her nephew Renaud Earl of Cornwall gave her property at "Cracunton and Bidun", both in Cornwall, which he assesses would only have been his after his installation as earl in that year.
Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record that "Willelmus de Boterellis" held one knight's fee from the bishop of Exeter in Devon and twelve knights' fees from "comitis Reginaldi" in Cornwall.
Issue
Renaud Earl of Cornwall issued a charter for William de Boterel which names his mother "matertere mee Aliz Corbet".
=== == Biographhy ==There is an odd footnote ===
== Biographhy ==There is an odd footnote in an old account of Asthall church in Oxfordshire. "On the north side of the church ... is the effigy of a female figure recumbent, on a stone coffin, situated within an elegantly Gothic arch. It is said to contain the remains of Alice Corbett, concubineto King Henry I., the daughter of Sir Robert Corbett of Warwickshire." Note: Was this effigy of Sibyl (who was Henry's mistress) rather than Alice? Or was Alice also a mistress of Henry I?
