Notes about Ralph d'Anvers

Born in Normandy, Ralph Danvers lived through the period of the Conquest, and witnessed the final establishment of the Norman rule in England, the stormy days of the Red King, the accession of Henry I, his struggle with, and defeat of, his brother Robert, and his marriage with Matilda of Scotland, an English princess, the niece of Eadgar Aetheling. Ralph Danvers died at or about a time which was one of great sorrow throughout England, for it saw the death of Prince William - "the Aetheling," as the English delighted to call him - drowned in the White Ship of Barfleur, as he was returning to England.

According to Vincent, Ralph left two sons, Roland and Geoffrey, of whom the elder, Roland, succeeded his father in his Buckinghamshire and Berkshire estates, while Geoffrey received lands at Bourton in North Oxfordshire, and probably in Warwick also. [Memorials of the Danvers Family p 39]
