=== Life Sketch ===
«b»Biography«/b»
William's father was only an adult from 1186 to 1188 when he died, and William only came of age in 1206, so the range of possible birth dates is limited. He died in 1228 and his son was also named William.
In 1200 he was holding a knight's fee under the Abbey of St Edmunds Bury in Thorpe.
A foundation story of Ixworth Priory celebrating his family who founded a convent there, says William was the son, and heir, of Hubert. His mother was Agnes de Insul (of the Island, de L'isle), his wife was Cecelia de Vere, and they had children, William, Agnes, and Rose. Son William married Alice de Capell (de Chapel), but died at the Battle of Lewes, without issue, his sisters becoming his heirs.
Married: Cecilia de Vere about 1202, Ixworth, Suffolk, England
