  Euphemia / Euphemie, wife of Robert de Brus, 2nd Lord of Annandale; Her parentage is undetermined / disputed. May be Euphemia de Crosbie, Euphemia Le Gros, or Euphemia d´Aumale

  From FamilySearch user "ARiley6":
  
  There is confusion as to which one person Euphemia de Crosbie or Euphemia Le Gros was the spouse of Robert Bruce The Cadet, 1st Lord of Annandale. Eumphia de Crosbj was the daughter of Adam de Crosbj, the Founder of Annandale, in Scotland. Or was it Euphemia Le Gros, daughter of William Le Gros, Lord of Aumale. As I am a Crosbie I would like to think it was Euphemia de Crosbj. But I don't know. The Crosbj's were of Norman descent.
  They made quite a mark in the UK.

2. Title: ROBERT DE BRUS 'le meschin' (died 1194) son of ROBERT DE BRUS - Scots Peerage
   Publication: Name: https://archive.org/details/scotspeeragefoun02pauluoft/page/429/mode/1up;
   Note: Page 428 ROBERT DE BRUS succeeded his father [ADELM (or ADAM) DE BRUS] in the barony of Page 429 Skelton. There has been much confusion about this Robert through Dugdale confounding him with his grandfather, who bore the same name. He became a very powerful Baron, having no less than ninety-four lordships in Yorkshire, summed at fifteen knights' fees. He was a liberal benefactor to the Church, and along with the Earl of Huntingdon (afterwards David I) founded the Abbey of Selkirk, afterwards removed to Kelso. He had charters from David I, circa 1124, of the lands of Estrahanent, or Annandale.1 He married Agnes, daughter of Foulk de Paganell,2 and got with her the manor of Careton, in Yorkshire, and other lands. Of a second alleged marriage to Agnes de Annand there is no proof. He died in May 1141,3 leaving issue: — 1. Adam, who succeeded in Skelton. 2. ROBERT, surnamed 'le meschin,' who succeeded in Annandale. 3. Pagan, supposed to have been the founder of the family of Bruce of Pickering. 4. Agatha, married to Ralph, son of Ribald, Lord of Middleham. ROBERT DE BRUS, 'le meschin' or the younger, the second son of his father, got from him his Scottish possessions of Annandale just before the battle of the Standard in 1138; they were both present at that engagement, but upon different sides, though the young possessor of Annandale was only fourteen. He is said to have been taken prisoner by his own father, who sent him to King Stephen, but that monarch courteously remitted him to his mother at Skelton. The whole affair was probably a family arrangement to prevent the lands, in the case of either side winning, from going out of the family by forfeiture. Robert de Brus had a grant of certain lands in Durham from his father, on a complaint made by him that he had no wheaten bread in Annandale; he had also a confirmation of the last-named territory from William the Lion, dated at Lochmaben, circa 1166. Brus married a lady Page 430 whose Christian name was Euphemia. He died in 1194, leaving issue at least two sons: — 1. Robert, married in 1183 Isabel, natural daughter of King William the Lion by the daughter of Robert Avenel. He died s. p. before his father in 1191, in which year his widow married Robert de Ros. 2. WILLIAM. WILLIAM DE BRUS succeeded his father in Annandale about 1194. His wife's name was Christina, who survived him and married, after his death in 1215, Patrick, Earl of Dunbar, as his second wife. He had issue: — 1. ROBERT. 2. William. 3. John.

   Note: ROBERT [II] de Brus, son of ROBERT [I] de Brus & his [second] wife Agnes --- ([1135/40]-[17 Feb, 26 Aug, or 4 Dec] after [1170/90]). The manuscript history of the founders of Gysburne/Gisborough Priory names “Robertus de Bruse…miles de Normannia” and “Roberto de Bruse filio suo juniori”, adding that the latter was captured during the Anglo-Scottish wars[990]. The 1155 Pipe Roll records "Agnes de Bruis…p filio suo"[991]. As noted above, this suggests that Agnes was acting for her son, who was a minor at the time, in relation to the property for which the return was made. If this is correct, her son was presumably Robert [II] de Brus, who must have been considerably younger than his [half-]brother Adam [I], and so probably born from a different wife. If this is correct, he had reached the age of majority by 1157 when he is named without his mother in the Pipe Roll (see below). The manuscript history of the Bruce family of Carleton records that “primus Brus de Carleton…Robertus de Brus” granted “villam Anandiæ de regno Scotiæ…et…postea Hert et Hertnesse” to “Robertus filius eius junior”[992]. Lord of Annandale. The 1157 Pipe Roll records "Rob de Brus" in Northumberland[993]. “Robertus de Bruis et uxor mea Eufemia” donated property to the canons of Gysburne/Gisborough by charter dated to [1160/75][994]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Robertus de Brus v m" in Yorkshire in [1167/68][995]. “Robertus de Brus” donated property to the monks of Durham by charter dated to [1170/90], witnessed by “Roberto, Willelmo et Bernardo filiis meis…Hugone de Brus…”[996]. The obituary of Gysburne/Gisborough priory records the deaths “XIII Kal Mar” of "Roberti Brus de Anant", "VII Kal Sep" of "Roberti Brus de Anande", and "II Non Dec" of "Roberti Brus de Anande"[997]. Two of these three deaths presumably relate to Robert [II] and Robert [III] de Brus, as the same source separately records the deaths of Robert [I], Robert [IV] and Robert [V] de Brus (see above and below). It is not known to whom the third death refers as no other record has been found of another Robert de Brus before Robert [VI], who was not buried at Gysburne/Gisborough. m EUPHEMIE, daughter of ---. “Robertus de Brus” notified his donation to the hospital of St Peter, York by charter dated to [1150/70], witnessed by “domina Eufemia…”[998]. “Robertus de Bruis et uxor mea Eufemia” donated property to the canons of Gysburne/Gisborough by charter dated to [1160/75][999]. Her origin is indicated by the charter dated to [1150/60] under which “W. comes Albemarle” granted property to “Eufemie nepti mee uxori Roberti de Brus”[1000]. Domesday Descendants speculates that she was the daughter of Guillaume’s brother Enguerrand[1001], although there seems no reason to choose one of his brothers over any of the others. Another possibility is that she was the daughter of Guillaume’s sister Mathilde, whose husband Guermond de Picquigny is recorded with a sister named Euphemie.
