=== Life Sketch ===
It is possible that her birth was even earlier than the "about 992" estimate, based on that her known son, Raoul, Chamberlain to the young duc William, and a royal officer of Williams' father, duc Robert, was recorded in historical event's that place his birth, by at least 1008. (dwj)
It has been suggested that Hélisende may have been an heiress to a d'Abbetot seigneur, and that she brought the fief and church of Saint-Jean-d'Abbetot into the family via franc marriage, but no evidence has been found to support this.
Geraldus and a kinsman (likely his son Giraldus "miles Christi" de Roumare), made a grant to the College at St-Georges, at a time before Raoul made his own grant c. 1035, and confirmed that of his father. (Wikiwand: Tancarville)

Note: Tancarville is a commune in the Seine-Maritime department in the Normandy region of northern France.
Geography
Tancarville is a farming village surrounded by woodland, by the banks of the river Seine in the Pays de Caux, some 14 miles (23 km) east of Le Havre and near the junction of the D39, D982 and D910 roads at the eastern end of the A131 autoroute. The canal de Tancarville to le Havre starts here and it is also the site of the 125 m high Tancarville Bridge.
History
"Tancarvilla" 1103; "Tancardi" villae 1114; "Tankrad's" farm. Germanic male given name Tankrad > Tancred, common in the duchy of Normandy. The first lords of Tancarville were the chamberlains of the Norman dukes, and then of the King of England too. William de Tancarville, a grandson of Stephen, Count of Tréguier, trained William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke whom he knighted in 1166. The title Earl of Tankerville was created in the Peerage of England for John Grey by King Henry V, during the Hundred Years' War and still exists, albeit in a later creation.
Heraldry
The arms of Tancarville are blazoned : "Gules, an escutcheon argent between 8 angennes (roses) in orle." (Note: this "angenne" is very rose-like, not the highly stylized cinqfoil.)
