William de BRIWERE and Beatrice de VAUX Husband: Sir William de Briwere, Lord of Derby, Lord Horsley LifeNotes: William Briwere, son of Henry Briwere, "... in consideration of xxxi Marks in Silver purchasing from Hawise de Ilesham, Raphe her Husband, Roger her Son and Heir, and Auger his Brother, the Inheritance of all their Land at Ilesham, and that Right therein, which they held of him, by the Service of half a Knights Fee ... In which year, being constituted Sheriff of Devon, he continued so till the end of that King's Reign. After the death of King Henry II, Sir William stood in such high esteem, with Richard I, "That, upon the going of that King into the Holy Land, in the first year of his Reign, he and Hugh Bardulf were associated to the Bishops of Durham and Ely, in the Government of the Realm." Furthermore, in 3rd year, Richard I, the King being then in the Holy Land, and doubting that the Bishop of Ely might not perform his Trust, as he expected; this William was one of the three, to whom the King, by his special Letters, gave command, That they should assume the government into their Hands. Thus much for the Trusts and Favours which he received from King Richard I. Nor were they less from King John, after he assumed the Crown "In which year (viz. 17 Joh.) the King having raised two great Armies, the one to restrain the Irruption of those Rebellious Lords who staid in London; the other to march into the North, for the wasting of those Countries; he constituted this William one of the Principal Commanders of that which staid near London." In 7th year Henry III, William de Briwere was constituted Governor of Newcastle upon Tine. And, as in the time of King Henry II, and King Richard I, he had "for divers years undergone the Care and Trust of the Sheriffalty in several Counties of this Realm." So did he, in like sort, for many years of King John's and King Henry III's reign. And, having married Beatrix de Valle, a Concubine, as 'tis said, to Reginald Earl of Cornwall (which is probable, for in a Grant made by Henry Son to the same Reginald, unto this William, of the Mannor of Karswell, and Land of Hakford, he calls him his Brother) he had Issue by her two sons, viz. Richard, who died in Life-time, as it seems and William: as also five Daughters, viz. Grecia, married to Reginald de Braose; Margaret to William de Ferte; Isabel, first to ----- Dovre, and afterwards to Baldwin Wake; Alice to Reginald de Mohun; and Joane, to William de Percy: and departing this Life in 11 H. 3. was buried before the High-Altar in the Abby of Dunkeswell before-mentioned."--- William Dugdale, *The Baronage of England*, vol I, 1675 (reprint 1977, Georg Olms Verlag, Hildesheim & New York), p 702 Born: ca 1145 Married: Died: 1226, Devonshire, England Parents: Henry de Briwere Wife: Beatrice de Vaux LifeNotes: Born: ca 1149 Married: Died: 3/24/1216-17 Parents: Their children were: * Margaret "Margery" Briwere.
