  === Life Sketch ===
  Alan Basset (died 1232 or 1233) was an English baron.
  
  Basset was a younger son of Adeliza and Thomas Basset[1] of Headington, Oxfordshire. In like favour with Richard I and with John, he received from the former the lordships of Woking and Mapledurwell (in Surrey and Hampshire), and from the latter those of Wycombe and Berewick[2] (in Buckinghamshire and Wiltshire).
  
  With his brothers Gilbert and Thomas he accompanied John to Northampton, when the king of Scots did his homage (22 November 1200), which he tested, and continued throughout John's reign in close attendance on the court, accompanying the king to Ireland in 1210 and to Runnymede (15 June 1215), his name, with that of his brother Thomas, appearing in Magna Carta among those of the king's counsellors.[3]
  
  At the accession of Henry III he was one of the witnesses to his re-issue of the charter (11 November 1216), and on the royalist reaction his loyalty was rewarded by his being occasionally employed in the Curia Regis and sent to France on a political mission in 1219–20. He also acted as sheriff of Rutland from 1217 to 1229. Dying in 1232–3, he left three sons: Gilbert, his heir; Fulk, afterwards bishop of London; and Philip, afterwards Justiciar of England.

  ------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  ALAN Basset, son of THOMAS Basset [I] of Headington, Oxfordshire & his wife Alice de Dunstanville (-before 30 Sep 1230). ... Alan presumably died before 30 Sep 1230, the date of the grant to his son Gilbert cited below.
  
  [m firstly ALICE de Grey, daughter of --- (-before 15 Apr 1206). William Reedy, in the genealogical tables in the introduction to his collection of Basset charters, names "Alice de Gray" as the first wife of Alan Basset and mother of the sons shown below[334]. He does not cite the primary source which confirms that this is correct. Alice has not been connected with the Grey families. The similarity between “Alice de Gray” and “Aline de Gai” (Alan’s supposed second wife) is striking. Unless another source emerges which confirms the separate identity of Alan’s two supposed wives, it appears likely that he had only a single wife. In any case, the chronology of Alan’s sons, in particular the likely dates of the marriages of Gilbert and Philip, suggests that Aline de Gai (first named in 1206, see below) was their mother[335].
  
  m [secondly] (before 16 Apr 1206, [1203 or before?]) ALINE de Gai, daughter of ---.
  A charter dated 16 Apr 1206 records a final settlement between "Thomam filium Ricardi et Aliciam uxorem suam" and "Alanum Basset et Alinam uxorem suam" relating to one knight’s fee in Broad Town, Wiltshire[336]. William Reedy names her “Aline de Gai”, as mother of the two older daughters named below (no source cited)[337]. The primary source which confirms her family origin has not been identified. The Victoria County History of Buckinghamshire records that King John granted Wycombe in Buckinghamshire to Alan Basset (with Robert Vipont) in 1203 and notes that “this grant represents the manor of Bassets Bury, which was held of the honour of Wallingford by one knight’s fee”[338]. The grant is also recorded (as Nova Feudamenta) in the Testa de Nevill, dated to 1212[339]. The Testa de Nevill (1212) also includes "Alanus Basset de hereditate uxoris sue ii milites" in its list of tenants of the honour of Wallingford[340]. The reference to two knights’ fees indicates that this was a different land holding. Nevertheless, the apparent connection between Wallingford and Alan’s wife suggests that she may also have held some undefined interest in Wycombe. If that is correct, the couple may have married in 1203 or before.
  
  Alan & his [first/second] wife had five children:
  
  1. THOMAS Basset (-before 1230). King Henry III granted "terram quam Thomas Basset frater ipsius Gilberti habuit in Kertlinton" to “Gilberto Basset...fratri et heredi ipsius Thome” dated 1230[341]. "Gilbert Basset" was granted "land of Kertlinton…as the king had granted it to Thomas Basset, brother of the said Gilbert" dated 4 May 1235[342].
  
  2. GILBERT Basset [II] (-31 Jul 1241). ... Matthew Paris names "…Gilbertus Basset, cujus casum sinistrum præscripsimus…" among those who died in 1241[348].
  m (before 18 Jun 1240) as her first husband, ISABEL de Ferrers, daughter of WILLIAM de Ferrers Earl of Derby & his first wife Sibyl Marshall of the Earls of Pembroke (-before 26 Nov 1260). A charter dated 18 Jun 1240 records that "the town of Greywell" was given "as a marriage portion to Gilbert Basset with Isabel daughter of William de Ferrariis, the earl’s [G. Marshal Earl of Pembroke] niece"[349]. She married secondly (1243 or before) as his second wife, Reynold de Mohun. A manuscript records the death “III Kal Feb” 1257 of “dominus Reginaldus de Mohun fundator” and in 1260 of “Isabella Basset uxor Reginaldi prædicti”[350]. A writ dated 26 Nov "45 Hen III", after the death of "Isabel Basset" names "William son of Reginald de Moun and the said Isabel, age variously stated as 6 and 7, is her heir"[351].
  
  3. WARIN Basset (-Cardiff Castle 1233).
  m KATHARINE de Montagu, daughter of JOHN de Montagu & his wife Lucy --- (25 Nov ---- -after 6 Apr 1231).
  
  4. FULK Basset (-1259).
  
  5. PHILIP Basset (-29 Oct 1271, bur Stanley, Wilts).
  
  Alan & his [second] wife had three children:
  
  6. ALINE Basset . The Testa de Nevill includes a list of landholdings in Dorset, dated 1219, which includes "Aluina que fuit uxor Drogonis de Monte Acuto est de donatione domini regis", adding that "est in custodia Alani Basset per Regem Johannem et est maritanda et terra sua in Pideltun valet xx.l"[376]. "Alan Basset" made a fine "by Richard Talbot" for marrying "Aline who was the wife of Drogo de Montagu…without the king’s licence", dated [Oct] 1224[377]. m firstly DREUX de Montagu, son of WILLIAM de Montagu & his wife Isabel --- (-before 1219). m secondly ([1219/24]) RICHARD [V] Talbot of Linton, son of GILBERT Talbot of Linton & his wife --- (-before 13 Apr 1234).
  
  7. --- Basset (-[after 11 May 1226]). William Reedy, in the introduction to his collection of Basset charters, states that Alan Basset paid a fine to marry his daughter to the son and heir of William de Lanvalay in [1212/14][378]. It does not appear that this marriage was completed. [Betrothed ([1212/14]) WILLIAM [IV] de Lanvalay, son of WILLIAM [II] de Lanvalay & his wife Hawise de Bocland ([after 1190]-[1214/18 May 1216])].
  
  8. [KATHERINE] Basset . The Complete Peerage records her parentage and marriage, noting that Philpot calls her Katherine and “has notes of a grant by their son John for the souls of Alan Basset and Aline his wife”[379]. It is not known whether this daughter was the same as the daughter betrothed earlier to William de Lanvalay (see above). m (before Aug 1216) JOHN Lovel, son of WILLIAM Lovel & his wife Isabel --- (-before 23 Dec 1252).

This entry must be redated to after 1189 if it is correct that the knight fees were granted by King Richard I. King John confirmed that “Waltero de Dunstanvill” had granted the manor of Winterbourne to “Alan Basset,” under a charter confirmed by King Richard I, by charter dated 10 Apr 1200.
