Notities over GEROLD de TANCREVILLE

The family of Tancarville is a Norman family, who has inherited the title of Chamberlain of Normandy and which derives its toponym from the village of Tancarville.

The Chamberlain's family, whose principal headquarters were in the first place their manor house in Boscherville, seems to be in possession of the honor of Tancarville, included in the forest of Lillebonne, ducal reserve, by its services rendered to the dukes in the second Quarter of the eleventh century. The name Tancarville is associated for the first time in 1103 with the family with 'Willelmus de Tancarvilla'

Although the Tancarville are close to power, they have very little land in England. On the other hand, they hold ninety fiefs in Normandy.

Around 1316, the house of Melun, by Jean Ier, Vicomte de Melun and lord of Montreuil-Bellay, allied itself with the Tancarville, of which Jeanne de Tancarville was the last heiress.

Notable members of the family
Gerald, Lord of Tancarville

Raoul (to 1066), son, chamberlain of Normandy since at least 1035. He was constantly present at the ducal court until about 1066. He made a donation to the collegiate church of Saint-Georges de Boscherville. He seems to disappear before 1066, for his son is mentioned as having inherited his office, which in the meantime has become an hereditary dignity.

Raoul († 1079), chamberlain since before 1066. Wace mentions a 'sire de Tancarville' as a participant in the Norman conquest of England in his Roman de Rou. There is no evidence that Raoul ever set foot in England. But no office of chief chamberlain was created in England during the reign of the Conqueror. Douglas concludes that Raoul must have a representative in England when the Conqueror was there. At that time, the chief chamberlain dealt with royal and ducal finances, and in particular the collection of taxes, as he did before the conquest.

Guillaume of Tancarville (ca. 1075-1129), son of Raoul, chief chamberlain of Normandy and of England. It seems certain that he is the chamberlain of Duke Robert Courteheuse, then that of his brother Henri Beauclerc, after his victory at the battle of Tinchebray (1106). He is a close adviser to King Henry I of England. He is a frequent witness of his actions, and also serves as a judge. Considered a lord permanently loyal to the king by Ordéric Vital, he participated at his side in the castle of Eu in 1089. He participated in the battle of Brémule (1119) alongside the King of England against the King of France Of a fortuitous encounter in the Vexin. According to Henry of Huntingdon, it was he who commanded the force which captured the rebel Galeran IV of Meulan in 1124 at Bourgtheroulde. However, the Norman chronicler Orderic Vital does not mention it in his account of this event. He founded the abbey of Saint-Georges de Boscherville (around 1112/1113), which replaces the collegiate founded by his father. Thanks to her patronage, she attracted a large number of donations, notably that of King Henri I who gave her the port of Bénouville. It becomes the burial place of the family. He married Mathilde d'Arques, heiress of a powerful family.

Lucie, daughter of the former. She married Guillaume de Vernon, lord of Vernon and Néhou, and dowries the fiefs of Saint-Floxel and Vaudiville (now a hamlet of Saint-Floxel), and perhaps the fief of Gonneville-sur-Honfleur.

Rabel de Tancarville (about 1090-after 1137), son of William (I). He inherited the office of chamberlain of Normandy from his father. However, there is no evidence that he held this office during the reign of Henry I of England. Orderic Vital mentions that he disembarks from the Blanche-Nef just before he leaves because he realizes there are too many people on board. He thus escapes the disastrous shipwreck (1120). After Norman barons failed to entrust the duchy to Count Thibaut IV of Blois, Rabel fortifies his powerful castles, seizes the ducal fortress near Lillebonne, and refuses to recognize Stephen of England for an unknown reason. In 1137, Étienne landed in the west of Normandy, resolved to fight with Rabel, the leader of the Norman dissidents. He moved quickly towards the east, and took possession of the outpost of the seigniory of Tancarville without taking too much of it from Mezidon. He then recovers the fortress of Lillebonne, then seizes the castle of Villiers. Rabel decides that it is preferable to submit quickly and is received at court. He seems to have been confirmed by Étienne in his duties as chamberlain of Normandy. In 1127/1128 he replaced the secular canons at Sainte-Barbe-en-Auge by regular canons from Eu. In 1148, he was given the establishment of the commandery of Bretteville.

Guillaume (II) of Tancarville (c. 1129-1193 in Palestine), says 'the Younger', son of the previous one. He goes on a crusade with King Richard the Lionheart, where he finds death. It was in his house that William the Marshal was brought up. The latter was collected at the age of two or three years, for William the Chamberlain is his mother's cousin. He remained in Normandy as a squire in the military house of the chamberlain until 1166. After a period of tension between the chamberlain, he left his house and left for England. He was given the post of governor of Poitou until then occupied by Patrick de Salisbury. Guillaume de Tancarville, considered the 'father of the knights' by Gautier Map by the size of his troop, has an ost of 95 knights
.
Raoul (II) of Tancarville (c. 1150-1204). He accompanies his father on a crusade and returns. The lands of the family, possessed in England at Benstincton and Wilmundetor, were confiscated by Jean-sans-Terre in 1204, following the conquest of Normandy by Philippe-Auguste.

Guillaume (III) of Tancarville (about 1152-1214 in Bouvines, son of the previous one. He participates in the battle of Bouvines, where he finds death.

Guillaume (IV) of Tancarville (died after 1182), son of the previous one. Eleanor, his daughter, was united in 1205 by King Philip Augustus, who wished to permanently reattach Normandy to the kingdom of France, to Adam de Villebéon (+1325), son of Gautier-le-Jeune, chamberlain to the king.

Raoul (III) of Tancarville (c. 1180-), son of William III. He married Alix or Aeliz alias Helissende de Meulan, dame de Sérans.

Alix de Tancarville, daughter of Raoul III. She married in 1245 Robert Bertran, lord of Bricquebec, Roncheville, Fauguernon and Fontenay-le-Marmion, constable of Normandy.

* Guillaume (IV) of Tancarville (about 1225-1264), son of Raoul III. He defended the Mont-Saint-Michel and accompanied to the Saint-Louis Crusade. He married Aude d'Auffay.

Raoul (IV) of Tancarville (after 1275), son of the preceding one.

Guillaume (V) of Tancarville, brother of the previous one.

Robert de Tancarville, brother of precedents. He is known for the quarrel known as the enraged mill which opposes him to Jean de Harcourt, lord of the chateltenies of Gravenchon and Lillebonne. Engaged in the battle of Kortrijk against the Flemings, he finds death there. He married Jeanne de Mauvoisin, a lady of Rosny, who, after the death of her husband, concluded the marriage of their children with Enguerrand de Marigny. The marriage contract between Guillaume (VI) of Tancarville and Isabelle de Marigny, seven years each, was established in October 1309 in Rouen. The marriage was celebrated in January 1310 at Vincennes.

At the same time Jeanne de Tancarville, sister of Guillaume (VI), married Jean (1) of Melun.

Guillaume (VI) of Tancarville. He married Isabelle de Marigny, daughter of Enguerrand de Marigny, minister and chamberlain of the king.
