  === Life Sketch ===
  Guillaume Ier. Il est seigneur de Fiennes après son père, il récupère également de sa mère la seigneurie de Tingry. En 1203, Guillaume, confirme à l'abbaye d'Andres toutes les possessions qu'elle avait reçues de ses ancêtres et en 1204, il annonce un accord passé avec le monastère sur le montant de la redevance versée pour qu'il en soit le protecteur. En 1210, Guillaume de Fiennes approuve les donations faites à l'abbaye d'Andres par Eustache de Campaines, son vassal et son parent (Eustache, à la veille de partir, semble-t-il pour la croisade des albigeois avait fait plusieurs dons et/ou remises de redevances au monastère). Arnould II de Guînes et Jean évêque des Morins (de Thérouanne) vont à leur tour confirmer ces dons la même année. Guillaume Ier épouse d'abord Agnès de Dammartin, sœur de Renaud de Dammartin, comte de Dammartin et comte de Boulogne, et en secondes noces il prend pour femme Isabeau, selon un titre de l'abbaye d'Andres daté de 1210. Il vit encore en 1213
  
  “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
  "GUILLAUME (or WILLIAM) DE FIENNES, of Fiennes and Tingry (both in Pas de Calais), and, in England, of Wendover, Buckinghamshire, Gussage All Saints, Dorset, Fyfield, Lambourne, and Magdalen Laver, Essex, Mattock, Somerset, Carshalton and Clapham, Surrey, etc., son and heir, born say 1170. He married (1st) ISABEL ___. They had no known issue. He married (2nd) before 1 Jan. 1204 (date of charter) AGNES DE DAMMARTIN, daughter of Aubrey II, Count of Dammartin, by Mahaut, daughter of Renaud II, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis [see DAMMARTIN 3 for her ancestry]. They had three sons, Enguerrand (or Ingram), Knt., Michael [Rector of Walkern, Hertfordshire, Dean of Bridgnorth], and Baldwin, Knt., and four daughters, Mahaut (wife of Baldwin III, Count of Guines), Katherine, (wife of Flamunscheye), and allegedly ___ (wife of Bartholomew de Hampden). In 1204 he acknowledged he would receive a rent of five sous sterling from Andres Abbey, instead of the cappa the monastery formerly gave him to be their protector. In 1206 the king granted him such plenary seisin of the manor of Mattock, Somerset, as his mother Sibyl had held. In October 1207, with consent of his wife, Agnes, he confirmed to Saint-Josse Abbey the earlier gift of his grandfather, Pharamus de Tingri, of the tithe of Sombres. In a charter dated August 1210 Guillaume provided that the monks of Ardres Abbey should keep the anniversary of his former wife Isabel. In 1216 he was deprived of his manor of Mattock, Somerset, he then being with the king's enemies. In 1218 he paid the king 200 marks for having seisin of the manor of Wendover, Buckinghamshire. In 1221 he paid 100 marks to the king for custody of the lands of Arnold, Count of Guines, in Kent, excluding land in Bedfordshire already commited to Henry de Trubleville. In 1227 he was preemptorily ordered to stop molesting the abbot of Missenden Abbey in respect of the latter's free tenement in Wendover, Buckinghamshire. In 1229 he made fine with the king by 40 marks, so that he is not to cross with the king at his first crossing at Michaelmas in 15 days. At an unknown date, he gave the canons of St. Mary Missenden all the land which Wimond held of him in Wendover, Buckinghamshire, together with Wimond himself and his progeny. On 4 July 1240 the king, upon the death of Guillaume (or William) de Fiennes, took homage from Enguerrand, son and heir of the same Guillaume, for the lands that he held of the king in chief. In 1244 his widow, Agnes, was granted administration of the manor of Martock, Somerset on behalf of their son and heir, Enguerrand.
