  === GODFREY DE LOVAINE, younger son of Godfr ===
  GODFREY DE LOVAINE, younger son of Godfrey III, DUKE of BRABANT AND COUNT OF LOUVAIN, by his 2nd wife, Imaine, daughter of Louis and sister of Gerard, COUNTS or Loos, passed most of his life in England under John and Henry III. He was for several periods custodian of the honour and castle of Eye in Suffolk, which his half-brother, Duke Henry, acquired through his wife Maud, granddaughter of King Stephen. In 1212 the King sent him on a political mission to Duke Henry. He married, circa 1199 Alice, widow of Ralph DE CORNHILL (recently deceased), and daughter and heir of Robert DE HASTINGS, by Maud de Flamville, heiress of the Windsor family, with whom he had 10 knights' fees and lands in London, Middlesex, Essex, and Suffolk. At the end of John's reign he was in arms against the King, but returned to allegiance in 1217, when his lands were restored to him. He died before 26 April 1226.
