  === Life Sketch ===
  She was the daughter of William II de Braose and Bertha FitzMiles and wife of (1) William de Ferrers Earl of Derby and (2) Adam de Port
  
  Sybil m. firstly William de Ferrers Earl of Derby, son of Robert de Ferrers Earl of Derby & his wife Margaret Peverel (killed in battle Acre 1190 before 21 Oct).
  
  She m. secondly, as his second wife, Adam de Port, son of John de Port & his wife Maud-(1150/55-26 Jun/28 Jul 1213).
  
  Adam de Port m. secondly, as her second husband, Sibly, widow of William de Ferrers Earl of Derby, daughter of William de Briouse Lord of Bramber & his wife Bertha of Hereford. A charter of John King of England relating to Briouse properties, dated 1212, recites the history of the king's turbulent relationship with the family and includes a record that "Willielmus de Breosa...Matildis de Heya uxor sua et W. comes de Ferar. nepos suus et Adam de Porter qui sororem suam habuit in uxorem" petitioned the king (presumably in 1209/10). This source confirms the parentage of Adam's second wife, but no source has yet been identified which confirms that her name was Sibyl and therefore that she was the same daughter of William de Briouse who had earlier married Earl William de Ferrers.

   Note: WILLIAM [II] de Briouse, son of PHILIPPE de Briouse & his wife Eleanor de Barnstaple (before 5 Jan [1096]-after [1175]). The most difficult question relating to William [II] de Briouse is whether he in fact represents one person or two persons, father and son. If the charter dated to [1096] is correctly dated, his life was improbably long if he was one person. In addition, the 1157 Pipe Roll lists William among "Nova Placita et Novæ Conventiones" for the honour of Barnstaple, which suggests that the William in question had recently inherited his property rights, presumably from his father as the death of his supposed grandfather Philippe is dated to [1131/39]. This looks straightforward until we consider the charter dated [1140], which clarifies that Bertha of Gloucester was the wife of William, son of Philippe de Briouse, which appears to exclude their being two individuals named William. "Philippus de Brausia" confirmed the donations to the church of Saints Gervais et Protais de Briouze, by "pater eius Guillemus de Brausia", before leaving for Jerusalem, by charter dated 5 Jan [1096], with the consent of "uxor eius Aanor et Guillelmus filius suus"[770]. "Willielmus de Braiosa" confirmed the donations to the church of Saints Gervais et Protais de Briouze by "Philippus de Braiosa pater eiusdem Willielmi", by undated charter, witnessed by "Bertam conjugem meam, Philippum fratrem meum"[771]. "Willelmus de Braiosa, Philippi filius" notified "filio suo" that he had donated "Armigetone mansionem" to the monks of Saint-Florent by charter dated to [1140], witnessed by "Robertus frater meus…", later confirmed by "Willelmus dominus de Braiosa filius Philippi, avi mei filii Willelmi" witnessed by "Bertam conjugem meam, Philippum fratrem meum…"[772]. A charter dated [1154] records that "Willelmus de Braiosa et Willelmus de Harecourt" donated the church of Sumtinges to the Templars[773]. This joint donation suggests a family relationship between the donors, but this has not yet been traced. The 1157 Pipe Roll records "Will’s de Braiosa" owing 1000 marks for "parte sua de honore de Barnestapl" in "Nova Placita et Novæ Conventiones"[774]. The 1157 Pipe Roll records "Will. de Braiosa" in Herefordshire[775]. Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record the knights’ fees held from "Willelmi de Brahosa de honore de Berdestaple" in Devon[776]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Willelmus de Breose xxviii m" in Devonshire in [1167/68][777]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records enfeoffments in the duchy of Normandy in [1172], "Willemus de Braiosa" with three knights "de Braiosa"[778]. He was Lord of Abergavenny and Brecon from [1173] by grant of his brother-in-law Mahel FitzMiles[779]. The Annales Cambriæ record that "Willielmo de Breusa" killed "Seisil filius Dinawal et Gefrei filius eius…in Abergavenni" in 1175[780]. “Willielmus de Braosa” confirmed donations to Abergavenny Priory by “Hamelinus de Balon et Brientius comitis filius et Walterus de Herefort et Henricus de Herefort” by undated charter, witnessed by “Rogero fratre meo…”[781]. m (before [1140]) BERTHA, daughter of MILES of Gloucester Earl of Hereford & his wife Sibylle de Neufmarché. The Historia fundationis cum fundatoris genealogia of the priory of Abergavenny names “Margaretam, Bertam et Luciam” as the three daughters of “Milonem” & his wife, adding that Berthe married “Philippo de Brusa domino de Duelth“ (naming their descendants) and inherited “tota terra Breconiæ, Wenciæ superioris et Gower”[782]. A manuscript narrating the history of Brecknock priory records that “Berte” married “Willame de Brewes”, and also lists her descendants[783]. "Willielmus de Braiosa" confirmed the donations to the church of Saints Gervais et Protais de Briouze by "Philippus de Braiosa pater eiusdem Willielmi", by undated charter, witnessed by "Bertam conjugem meam, Philippum fratrem meum"[784]. "Willelmus de Braiosa, Philippi filius" notified "filio suo" that he had donated "Armigetone mansionem" to the monks of Saint-Florent by charter dated to [1140], witnessed by "Robertus frater meus…", later confirmed by "Willelmus dominus de Braiosa filius Philippi, avi mei filii Willelmi" witnessed by "Bertam conjugem meam, Philippum fratrem meum…"[785]. William & his wife had [four] children:
