Notizen bei ROGER BEAUMONT

Roger de Beaumont, 2nd Earl of Warwick (1102 - 12 June 1153) was the elder son of Henry de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Warwick and Marguerite, daughter of Geoffrey II of Perche and Beatrix of Montdidier. He was also known as Roger de Newburg.

He was generally considered to have been a devout and pious man; a chronicle of the period, the Gesta Regis Stephani, speaks of him as a "man of gentle disposition". The borough of Warwick remembers him as the founder of the Hospital of S. Michael for lepers which he endowed with the tithes of Wedgnock, and other property; he also endowed the House of the Templars beyond the bridge. In the reign of Stephen he founded a priory dedicated to S. Cenydd at Llangennith, Co. Glamorgan and he attached it as a cell to the Abbey of S. Taurinus at Evreux in Normandy.

Probably under age at his father's death, he obtained the Earldom in 1123. He attested charters of Henry I, and after the accession of Stephen he was at the Easter Court at Westminster, 22 Mar 1135/36. After the battle of Lincoln, he allied himself with the Empress Maud and served with her at the siege of Winchester in 1141, although he was with Stephen at Stamford in early 1142. While he does not appear to have taken an active part in the Civil War, at an unknown date he allowed Warwick Castle to be garrisoned by Stephen's troops, and in 1153 was with the King when he heard that the garrison had been tricked by Henry's Knights and the Castle surrendered. It is said that he was "so stricken with shame and grief that he died suddenly". He founded the Templar's House and St. Michael's Hospital, both in Warwick, completed the foundation of Warwick Priory, and was a benefactor to large number of religious foundations. Following his death in 1153, his widow married William de Lancaster, Lord of Kendal, and she was still living in 1166.
