• Notes:

  === Life Sketch ===
  William de Warenne, 3rd Earl of Surrey (1119 – 6 January 1148) was an Anglo-Norman nobleman who fought in England during the Anarchy and generally remained loyal to King Stephen. He participated in the Second Crusade.
  He was the eldest son of William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey (died 1138) by his wife Elizabeth de Vermandois. He was a great-grandson of King Henry I of France, and half-brother to Robert de Beaumont, 2nd Earl of Leicester, Waleran IV de Beaumont, Count of Meulan, and Hugh de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Bedford.
  Life
  Still in his minority in 1137 he was serving with Stephen, King of England in Normandy being one of those young nobles who initially fled the battle. Stephen pursued them, held them and did his best to pacify them but did not make them fight. At his father's death in 1138, William became the third Earl of Surrey. At Easter 1138 he accompanied his half-brother Waleran de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Worcester on an embassy to Paris for the purpose of ratifying a treaty between the English and French kings. On 2 February 1141 he and his half-brother Waleran were again with King Stephen at the Battle of Lincoln but fled at the initial charge of the enemy forces.[5] They both joined Queen Matilda but on King Stephen's release they were once again among his followers, and William witnessed a royal charter at Canterbury in late 1141.
  Charters
  With his brother Ralph, William was a joint donor in numerous charters issued by his parents and was a witness to his father's charter, all to Longueville Priory near Rouen, Normandy (between 1130 and 1138). He was also a donor with his brother and both parents to the priory of Bellencombre (also near Rouen) in 1135. William was also the primary donor in a number of charters after his father died, between 1138 and 1147.One of particular instance occurred during a livery of seisin in 1147. At that event, William gave a large gift to the Lewes Priory which was secured with a lock of hair from his own and from his brother Ralph's head cut by Henry of Blois, bishop of Winchester, before the altar of the priory church. Lewes Priory had been founded by William's grandparents, William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, and his wife Gundrada, probably in 1081.
  Marriage and children
  William married Adela (alias Ela), daughter of Count William III of Ponthieu, by his wife Helie daughter of Odo I, Duke of Burgundy. They had one child and sole-heiress, a daughter, Isabel de Warenne, suo jure 4th Countess of Surrey. She married firstly William of Blois (died 1159), the second son of king Stephen, who became Earl Warenne or Earl of Surrey. After he died childless in October 1159, she remarried to Hamelin, half-brother of King Henry II, who became Earl Warenne or Earl of Surrey. He adopted the surname "de Warenne", and the earldom continued in his descendants.
  He was one of the nobles who, along with his second cousin, King Louis VII of France, took crusading vows at the Council of Vézelay in 1146, and he accompanied the initial army of the Second Crusade the next year. William was killed at the Battle of Mount Cadmus while the crusader army was marching across Anatolia on their way to the Holy Land. ... On 6 January 1148 they battled again in the area of Mount Cadmus, where Turks ambushed the infantry and non-combatants only, because they had become separated from the rest of the army. King Louis VII and his bodyguard of Knights Templars and noblemen recklessly charged the Turks. Most of the knights were killed, including William, and Louis barely escaped with his life.

  "WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 3rd Earl of Surrey, son and heir, probably born in 1119. In June 1137 he was one of the nobles who deserted the army of King Stephen in Normandy. The king pursued them to Pont-Audemer, where he held William and other youths and did his best to pacify them, but did not dare make them fight. William was with his half-brother, Waleran, Count of Meulan, at Rouen 18 Dec. 1138, and at Oxford in 1139 or early in 1140. He was in the army of King Stephen at the Battle of Lincoln 2 Feb. 1140/1, but fled with his brother, Count Waleran, before the enemy's opening charge. However, the brothers soon rallied to the queen during the king's captivity and were with her in London about June 1141. After King Stephen's release in Nov. 1141, he witnessed royal charters at Canterbury at Christmas 1141 and at Ipswich in early 1142.
  He married ELA (or ALA) OF PONTHIEU, daughter of Guillaume III Talvas, Count of Ponthieu and Alençon, by Ela, daughter of Eudes I Borel, Duke of Burgundy.
  They had one daughter,
  1. Isabel.
  He took the cross on Palm Sunday 24 March 1145/6, and subsequently accompanied King Louis VIII of France on crusade in June 1147.
  WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 3rd Earl of Surrey, died 19 Jan. 1147/8, being slain when the rear-guard of the French king's army was cut to pieces in Laodicea.
  About 1150 Theobald, Archbishop of Canterbury, remonstrated with his widow, Ela, for detaining from the monks of Lewes Priory the tithes of her dower lands.
  She married (2nd) probably in or before 1152 (as his 2nd wife) PATRICK OF SALISBURY (otherwise known as PATRICK FITZ WALTER), 1st Earl of Salisbury [see LONGESPEE 3], hereditary Sheriff of Wiltshire, Steward of the Household to Empress Maud, son and heir of Walter of Salisbury (also known as Walter Fitz Edward), of Chitteme, Wiltshire, Great Gaddesden, Hertfordshire, North Aston, Oxfordshire, etc., hereditary Sheriff of Wiltshire, Constable of Salisbury Castle, by Sibyl, daughter of Patrick de Chaources (or Sourches) [see LONGESPEE 2 for his ancestry]. They had four sons, William [2nd Earl of Salisbury], Patrick [Canon of Bradenstoke], Philip [Canon of Bradenstoke], and Roger. He was created Earl of Salisbury (or Wiltshire) about 1143; he occurs once as Earl of Wiltshire in the period, 1111 50. He witnessed a charter of Henry d'Oilly in the period, 1144-47. Sometime before 1148 he witnessed a charter of Roger Fitz Humphrey to the Templars. In 1153 he witnessed the treaty between King Stephen and Henry, Duke of Normandy [future King Henry II]. After the accession of King Henry II, he continued to act as Sheriff and was frequently at Court. He witnessed a charter of his brother-in-law, John Marshal, to the Templars in 1155-6. At an unknown date, he gave Bradenstoke Priory the church of Wilcot, with its dependent chapel at Draycot Fitz Payne, as well as a portion of the manor of Wilcot, Wiltshire. He also exchanged the property in Wilsford, Wiltshire given by his father, for the rest of the manor of Wilcot, Wiltshire, and also gave a salt pit in Canford, Dorset. His wife, Countess Ela, gave the same priory land and rents in Hatherop, Gloucestershire worth 100s. yearly. In 1167 he accompanied King Henry II to Poitou, where the king assigned him to protect his queen, Eleanor of Aquitaine.
  PATRICK, Earl of Salisbury was slain about 7 April 1168 by Poitevin nobles while riding near the castle of Lusigan in Poitou with Queen Eleanor. He was buried in the Abbey of St. Hilaire in Poitiers. Queen Eleanor and her son, Richard, subsequently founded an anniversary at St.-Hilaire for their salvation and for the soul of Earl Patrick "who died in our service."
  His widow, Ela, Countess of Salisbury, died 10 Dec. 1174.

They marched across southwest Turkey and fought an unsuccessful battle at Laodicea on the border between Byzantine Empire and Seljuks of Rum (3-4 January 1148). On 8 January they battled again in the area of Mount Cadmus, where Turks ambushed the infantry and non-combatants only, because they had become separated from the rest of the army.

His army arrived later at the coastal city of Adalia. The battle is recorded by Odo of Deuil, personal chaplain to Louis, in his book De Profectione on pages 68 through 127.

  With his brother Ralph, William was a joint donor in numerous charters issued by his parents and was a witness to his father's charter, all to Longueville Priory near Rouen, Normandy (between 1130 and 1138). He was also a donor with his brother and both parents to the priory of Bellencombre (also near Rouen) in 1135. William was also the primary donor in a number of charters after his father died, between 1138 and 1147.One of particular instance occurred during a livery of seisin in 1147. At that event, William gave a large gift to the Lewes Priory which was secured with a lock of hair from his own and from his brother Ralph's head cut by Henry of Blois, bishop of Winchester, before the altar of the priory church. Lewes Priory had been founded by William's grandparents, William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, and his wife Gundrada, probably in 1081.
  
  Marriage & progeny
  William married Adela (alias Ela), daughter of Count William III of Ponthieu, by his wife Helie daughter of Odo I, Duke of Burgundy. They had one child and sole-heiress, a daughter, Isabel de Warenne, suo jure 4th Countess of Surrey. She married firstly William of Blois (died 1159), the second son of king Stephen, who became Earl Warenne or Earl of Surrey. After he died without progeny in October 1159, she remarried to Hamelin, half-brother of King Henry II, who became Earl Warenne or Earl of Surrey. He adopted the surname "de Warenne", and the earldom continued in his descendants.
  
  Death on crusade
  He was one of the nobles who, along with his second cousin, King Louis VII of France, took crusading vows at Vezelay in 1146, and he accompanied the initial army of the Second Crusade the next year. William was killed at the Battle of Mount Cadmus while the crusader army was marching across Anatolia on their way to the Holy Land.
  
  In December 1147 the French-Norman force reached Ephesus. They were joined by remnants of the army of the Holy Roman Empire, which had previously suffered heavy losses at the Battle of Dorylaeum in 1147. They marched across southwest Turkey and fought an unsuccessful battle at Laodicea (3–4 January 1148) on the border between the Byzantine Empire and the Sultanate of Rum. On 6 January 1148 they battled again in the area of Mount Cadmus, where Turks ambushed the infantry and non-combatants only, because they had become separated from the rest of the army. King Louis VII and his bodyguard of Knights Templars and noblemen recklessly charged the Turks. Most of the knights were killed, including William, and Louis barely escaped with his life. His army arrived later at the coastal city of Adalia. The battle is recorded by Odo of Deuil, personal chaplain to Louis, in his narrative De Profectione.
