«b»Biography«/b»
Ralph was not the son of William "Pincerna" d'Aubigne. Ralph was the son of Pincerna's brother-in-law (husband of Pincerna's wife's sister), William "Brito" d'Aubigne.
Ralph de Albini, the 2nd son of William de Albini, Brito, obtained fifteen knights' fees from his brother William in the 12th of Henry II [1166] and, in the 28th of the same reign [1182], he gave 200 marks for license to marry Sibella de Valoines, widow of Robert, Baron Ross, of Hamlake and Werke, and had two sons, Philip, his heir, and Ralph. Ralph de Albini, who founded some religious houses, d. at Acre, in the Holy Land, in 1190, and was s. by Philip de Albini.
According to a charter of Henry II, on one occasion at Bedford Castle Ralph threw a stone at the king. For this, he forfeited the possession of Didcot, Oxfordshire.
Note: According to Magna Charta Sureties, the Sibyl who married Robert de Ros is a different person; that Sibyl married William de Percy as her 2nd husband.
"By his wife Cecilia, and not Matilda, as Dugdale falsely conjectured, William d'Aubigné the first left issue William d'Aubigné the second, and Ralph, and Eudo, and Geoffrey, all witnesses to a charter with their father and mother made by Ralph de Raines and Walter and William his brothers, of four bovates of land in Stathorn in Leicestershire, to the priory of Bevoir, which they held of that honour. In 1168, we have a charter of William d'Aubigné the second, setting forth the knights enfeoffed of his barony, which his father had held and he after him, of whom the first named is Ralph d'Aubigné his brother, then tenant of fifteen knight's fiefs, and again this charter is proof that their mother had named Cecilia.
"May all as well present as to come know that I Wiliam d'Aubigné, by the assent of William my son and heir, and of Matilda my wife, and Cecilia, my mother, and likewise of Ralph d'Aubigné, my brother, and my vassals, have granted and given to God and the church of St. Mary of Belvoir and to . . . " Ralph d'Aubigné was deceased prior to the sixth year of Richard the First, 1198, leaving Sibilla de Valognes surviving."
"Ralph de Albini, the 2nd son of William de Albini, Brito, obtained fifteen knights' fees from his brother William in the 12th of Henry II [1166] and, in the 28th of the same reign [1182], he gave 200 marks for license to marry Sibella de Valoines, widow of Robert, Baron Ross, of Hamlake and Werke; they had two sons, Philip, his heir, and Ralph. Ralph de Albini, who founded religious houses, died at Acre, in the Holy Land, in 1192, and was succeeded by Philip d'Aubigny."
