He was heir in 1242 to his older brother, John Marshal. He married (1st) PERNEL DEL ORTIAY, daughter of Henry del Ortiay (or Lorty), Knt. They had two sons, John, Knt., and William. In 1247, as William Marshal, of Norton, he reached agreement with William de Brackley, Prior of Luffield, whereby he quitclaimed the service of a pair of gilt spurs and suit of court every three week in respect of an estate at Monksbarn (in Whittlebury), Northamptonshire, so that the prior should thereafter hold of him in free alms, quit of all secular service. The same year he also reached agreement with the Templars regarding rent owed for land in Cowley, Oxfordshire. He married (2nd) ELIZABETH DE FERRERS, daughter of William de Ferrers, Knt., 5th Earl of Derby, by his 2nd wife, Margaret (or Margery), daughter of Roger de Quincy, Knt., 2nd Earl of Winchester [see FERRERS 7 for her ancestry]. They had no issue. He was granted weekly markets to be held at the manors of Haselbury Plucknett, Somerset and Messingham, Lincolnshire in 1265. WILLIAM MARSHAL died Sept. 1265. In Feb. 1266 the king, having granted his nephew, Henry of Alrnain, all the lands and tenements in Norton, Northamptonshire formerly of William the Marshal his messenger, ordered that the goods and chattels formerly of the same William be delivered to the said Henry. William's widow, Elizabeth, married (2nd) before 1274-5 (date of lawsuit) DAVID AP GRUFFUDD, Knt., Prince of North Wales, younger son of Gruffudd ap Llywelyn, by Senena fetch Cadadog. They had two sons, Llywelyn and Owain, and seven daughters, including Gwladus. By his mistress, Tangwystl, daughter of Owain Fflam, of Deheubarth, he also had an illegitimate son, Dafydd Goch. In 1242 his mother, Senena, agreed to give him and his brother, Roderick, as hostages to King Henry III of England. In 1252, as lord of Cwmwd Maen, he entered into a composition with the Abbot and convent of Bardsey. He presented to the church of Plumpton, Northamptonshire 24 Dec. 1273. In 1274-5 Hubert de Rully and Isabel his wife arraigned an assize of mort d'ancestor against David Fitz-Griffin touching a mill in Foulsham, Norfolk. In 1275-6 Hubert de Rully and Isabel his wife, and Nicholas de Pulham and Aveline his wife arraigned an assize of mort d'ancestor against David ab Gruffud and Elizabeth his wife touching a mill in Foulsham, Norfolk. In 1278-9 William son of Alexander de Blacolnesr [Blakesley] arraigned an assize of novel disseisin against David ab Gruffud and others touching a tenement in Great Blakesley, Northamptonshire. In the same year Albric de Wytlebiry arraigned a similar assize against David ab Gruffud and others touching a tenement in Great Blakesley, Northamptonshire. In 1279 he and his wife, Elizabeth, sued her step-son, John Marshal, for a third of the manor of Colton, Staffordshire as the dower of Elizabeth; John stated he only held a rent of 12s. of which he offered a third. In 1280 the king seised the third part of the manor of Haselbury, Somerset, which David and his wife, Elizabeth, held as the dower of the said Elizabeth of the lands which were of William Marshal her late husband; later the same year the king wishing to grant indulgence to the said David and Elizabeth ordered that the third part of the manor be restored to them. In 1282 David suddenly surprised the Castle of Hawarden, killed many of the knights and squires who formed the garrison, and carried off Roger de Clifford, the Justiciary, as a prisoner into the hills. DAVID AP GRUFFUDD, Prince of North Wales, was executed for treason 3 October 1283. His widow, Elizabeth, presented to the church of Plumpton, Northamptonshire in 1285. She presented to the church of Greens Norton, Northamptonshire 20 Dec. 1296, which presentation was disputed by King Edward I, as guardian of William, heir of John Marshal. In 1297 she had a prolonged lawsuit in the royal courts with Sir Hugh de Cave regarding the right of patronage to the church of Plumpton, Northamptonshire.

Elizabeth Ferrers (c. 1250 – c. 1300) was a daughter of William de Ferrers, 5th Earl of Derby, and his second wife Margaret de Quincy (born 1218). Her maternal grandparents were Roger de Quincy, 2nd Earl of Winchester, and Helen of Galloway.
Wikipedia
Elizabeth was married first to William Marshal, 2nd Baron Marshal, and after his death to Dafydd ap Gruffydd, a prince of Gwynedd and brother of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd.[1][2] Dafydd was at that time in favour with King Edward I of England, but later rebelled and was executed in 1283. Elizabeth's fate is not known for certain, but she is thought to have been buried at the parish church in Caerwys, north Wales, where local tradition identifies a stone effigy on display in the church as hers.
Elizabeth's daughter Gwladys was sent to Sixhills convent for the rest of her life. Her husband Dafydd is thought to have had other daughters who may have been illegitimate. Her sons Llywelyn and Owain were imprisoned and never released.

In summary, evidence has been presented that Elizabeth de Ferrers, wife of Sir William le Marshal, and Sir David ap Gruffudd, was the daughter of William de Ferrers, 5th Earl of Derby, by his 2nd wife, Margaret (or Margery) de Quincy. It has also been shown that before his marriage to Elizabeth de Ferrers, Sir William le Marshal was previously married to Pernel del Ortiay (or de Lorty), by whom he appears to have had two sons, John and William. By her 2nd marriage to Sir David ap Gruffudd, Elizabeth de Ferrers is thought to have had two sons, Llywelyn and Owain, and seven daughters, including Gwladus. It is thought that all nine children died young or without issue, so Elizabeth de Ferrers has no known living descendants. http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/GEN-MEDIEVAL/2015-07/1435781501
