  «b»Biography«/b»
  Keats-Rohan has a long entry for him under the name "Wido de Credon". Excerpts:
  
  "Guy 'of Craon', in Anjou, can be confidently identified with a Breton, younger son of Robert I de Vitré and his Angevin wife Berthe de Craon (Moricé, Preuves I, 413)."
  "The Lincolnshire Claims of Domesday Book suggest that he was a Breton who had formerly held some of his land under Ralph I de Gael, Earl of East Anglia (d. 1069)."
  "After 1075 and the revolt and fall of Ralph II de Gael, Guy acquired some of the lands then forfeited by Ralph and his supporters."
  "His tenancy-in-chief lay principally in Lincolnshire and was later known as the barony of Freiston (Sanders, 47)."
  "He had married the daughter of another northern tenant-in-chief, Hugh fitz Baldric, by the date of Domesday Book. The Thorney Abbey Liber Vitae (BM Add. 4000, fol. 3r) shows that her name was Isabella."
  "The same source shows that he had a son Lisoius, an important name in the family of Bertha de Craon (ibid., fol. 3r; Mon. Ang. iv, 125)."
  "Active in Lincolnshire in the early 1190s, when he attested grants to Spalding Priory (Mon. Ang. iii, 120), he had been succeeded by his son Alan (q.v.) by 1114."
  "Alan's charters show that Guy was father also of two daughters, Emma, mother of William fitz Roger de Caen of Huntingfield, and Alice."
