=== Life Sketch ===
Rohese of Monmouth (Rohese de Monemue in Anglo-Norman) born about 1135/1140; died in or near 1180) was the daughter of Baderon fitzWilliam, lord of Monmouth, and of his wife Rohese de Clare.
She was the granddaughter of Gilbert Fitz Richard. Strongbow was the grandson of Fitz Richard.
About the year 1155 Rohese married Hugh de Lacy, Lord of Meath.
They had 8? children, 4 sons and 4 daughters:
1. Walter de Lacy (1166–1241)
2. Hugh de Lacy, 1st Earl of Ulster (bef.1179–1242)
3. Gilbert de Lacy
4. Robert de Lacy (died young)
5. ? William, who was captured in Ireland in 1210 by King John and died in captivity
6. Elayne (Elena) de Lacy, who married Richard de Beaufo (Belfou)
7. Alicia de Lacy, who married Roger Pipard, then married Geoffrey de Marisco, Justiciar of Ireland, son of Jordan de Marisco, Justiciar of Ireland.
8. a daughter, given name unknown, who married Sir William FitzAlan, son of Sir William FitzAlan, Lord of Oswestry, and Isabel de Say.
9. ? Rohese died before 1180.
Rohese is notable for the gift that she made, jointly with her husband and her son Robert, to Monmouth Priory. The Priory had benefited for more than half a century from her family's generosity, and it was clearly at her persuasion that this donation took place. Three shillings were to be given to the priory each year on St Michael's Day from the revenues of the town of Lydney in Gloucestershire. Rohese's brother Gilbert, otherwise known as a patron of literature, was among the witnesses to this donation.
