of the Illustrious owners of that place notwithstanding what will be done by my excellent friend Mr. Dugdale in his great work of the Baronage of England or in a particular one which was almost ready for the Press at the death of the last and most Noble Frances Countess of Rutland May 19. 1671. but for want of such a Mother and Nurse is like enough to be abortive and make no further appearance I shall begin therefore with the great Norman Robert de Toâ—neâ—o esteemed the builder who Founded a Priory near his Castle of Belvidere and made it a Cell of St. Albans To the endowment of Tythes and Lands which he made to it his son Berengerius was a Witness which Berengerius de Todeni the Book of Doomsday shows to have been Lord of divers Mannors in this County of Nott. But it seems his Father out-lived him because after having buried his wife Alice he the said Robert for her soul by the conâ—ent of his sons William and Geoffrey gave a Carucat of Land in Sapertun to the Church of St. Mary at Belvoyr and that William was his son and heir of his honour who I think was called William de Albini Brito from his being born in England notwithstanding in the Charter of Confirmation made by Thomas Lord Ros there seems to be two persons however he was a great Baron in the time of King Henry the first and witness to many of his Charters particularly in the year of our Lord 1133. 33 H. 1. as in several places of the Monasticâ—â— Angl. may be observed He seems to be the son of Matild de St. Liz sister of Walter son of Robert son of Richard Earl of Clare son of Gilbert but the time will scarcely bear it therefore we may rather suppose she was his wife and Mother of William de Albini his son whom I have sometimes seen called also Briâ—â— as his Father was yet it appears William de Albini Brito if that be not this second William too had another wife called Cecilia who together with himself and his son and heir William were benefactors to Thorney Abby and to his gift were Witnesses Roger and Robert his sons and his three Nephews 〈◊〉 son of his brother Galfr. â—wan and Gaâ—fr de Caâ—iâ—in one of his Deeds is to Alexander Bishop of Linc. in the time of H. 1. When the first William died I find not but I suppose both him and his son William dead 14 H. 2. for in the Pipe Roâ—â—s of that year I find though he be there named for paying the Scuâ—age for the Aid for marrying Maâ—d the Kings daughter for thirty three Knights Fees and for four more of new yet William Basset the then Sheriff of Warewiâ—h and Legrecester-shires accounted for 26l. 16s. 11d. of the issues of the honour of Belvier and for providing for the Children of William de Albineio thirty nine weeks and one month 15. and 21d. by the Kings Writ it may indeed be otherwise but I find no more of him afterwards William de Albeni the second was called sometimes Meschines and had two Wives Adeliza his first and Cecilia his second by whom he had his son and heir William de Albeni the third who was abroad with King Richard the first in his Army in Normâ—â—dy and therefore had a Quittance for his Scurage 6 R. 1. in the Counties of Bucks and Bedford It appears 10 R. 1. and 1 Ioh. that he gave DC Marks to have Agatha Trussebâ—t with her inheritance she was his second wife but I do not find he had issue by her By the consent of William de Albini the fourth his son and heir he Founded an Hospital at the Bridge of Wass between Offâ—ngton and Stanford for the health of his own soul and hers the said Agatha and for Margarets his former wife his sons William de Albini and Odinellus Nicolas and Robert de Albini were Witnesses William de Albini the fourth for the health of the soul of the Noble Lord William de Albini his Father and the soul of Margery de Vmfravile his Mother and the souls of his own wives Albreda Biset and Isabel confirmed to this Church of St. Mary of Newstead by Uffington Bridge what his Father had given Isabella this last Williams only daughter and heir who was the wife of Robert de Ros is said to be buried in this Newstead in the year 1301. The first Ancestor of this Robert that I know of was Peter de Ros who married Adelina the youngest as William de Bussey did Hawisia the eldest and Nicholas de Traisâ—y Albreda the second of the three sisters and heirs of that great and Potent Bâ—ron Walter de Espec who having an only son by his wife Adelina called also Walter Robertus de Belvedeir sive de Totencio Adelaâ—â— 2 Will. de Albini Brito 33 H. 1 -Matild de St. Liz Willielmus de Albeni Brito -Adeliza-Cecil Willielmus de Albeni -Margeria de Umfravile -Agatha Trusbut Pip. 10 R. 1.
