William Reedy assumes that "Johanni fratri meo" was the grantorမs brother-in-law John de Stuteville[285].

BassetဦR. de Stutevill, Nicolaus de Stutevillဦ"[286].

The following is excerpted from a post to SGM, 7 Sep 2002, by Rosie Bevan:
From: "Rosie Bevan" (rbevan AT paradise.net.nz) Subject: Stuteville of Cottingham Newsgroups: soc.genealogy.medieval Date: 2002-09-07 03:43:36 PST
The posts on the Stutevilles have generated a few private queries about the main English line. So for those interested, here is what is known of the Stutevilles of Cottingham, derived mainly from C.T.Clay, Early Yorkshire Charters, v.9.
In 1276 and 1282 surveys compiled of the Cottingham estate revealed that it consisted of a capital messuage of a manor, with a double ditch around the court, surrounded by a wall, with a garden, dovecote, fishery, 1455 acres of arable land, 433 acres of meadow, 364 acres of pastures, a park with a circuit of 4 leagues, in which the game were estimated at 500 wild beasts, four woods, three water mills and one wind mill. In addition there were 74 free tenants paying rent, 92 bondsmen and 137 cottars. Three advowsons belonged to the manor - the church of Cottingham worth 200 marcs p.a, the church of Roule worth 100 marcs and the church of Etton at 50 marcs p.a. The total value per annum of the estate was estimated at L435 2s 3d.
1. ROBERT I de Stuteville of Etoutteville, Seine-Maritime, arr. Yvetot, cant. Yerville and Cottingham, Yorks. He was amongst those granted the lands forfeited by Hugh fitz Baldric in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire soon after 1087 but lost them owing to his support of Robert Curthose, and was captured at the battle of Tinchebrai in 1106 after which he was condemned to be imprisoned for life. The lands were subsequently granted to Nigel d'Aubigny from whom they descended to Roger de Mowbray, but partially recovered by Robert I's grandson, Robert III de Stuteville. He was a benefactor of Durham and an entry in the Liber Vitae makes mention of himself, his wife Beatrice (whose parentage is unknown) and sons Robert, Gradulf and William. In a claim made by his great grandson William, he was described as Robert Grandboeuf. He was also father of Emma, second wife of Robert fitz Hugh de Grandmesnil whose six children are named in the Durham Liber Vitae. Benefactor of St Mary's abbey, York, Durham priory and the church at Lincoln.
Issue: - Robert II. See below - Gradulf - William - Emma. Married to Robert Grandmesnil. [Sources: Keats-Rohan, 'Domesday Descendants'. p.723 ; Clay, 'Early Yorkshire Charters' v.8, p.1-2 ; Sanders, 'English Baronies: a study of their origin and descent 1086-1327', p.37]

Thanks to Curt Hofemann (see post-em) for this excerpt from Sanders, which contains the descent of Stuteville:
The flwg is from: Sanders, I.J., _ ENGLISH BARONIES A STUDY OF THEIR ORIGIN AND DESCENT 1086-1132_, (Oxford University Press, London, first published 1960, Reprinted lithographically, from corrected sheets of the first edition 1963), Part I Baronies p. 37:
COTTINGHAM YORKSHIRE The estates of Hugh son of Baldric, Domesday lord of Cottingham, were divided after his death and the bulk of his lands in Yorkshire passed to Robert I de Stuteville. Robert I was captured fighting with the king's enemies at Tinchbrai in 1106, his lands passed to Nigel d'Aubigny and thence to the son of Nigel, Roger de Mowbray of Thirsk, Yorks. Robert II de Stuteville, s. and h. of Robert I, did not hold lands in England and it was not until the reign of Stephen that Robert III, s. and h. of Robert II, recovered Cottingham. Robert III d. circa 1183 leaving William d. 1203. Robert IV, s. and h., a minor, d.s.p. 1205 and the lands passed to Nicholas I, brother of William. Nicholas I was captured in May 1217 at the battle of Lincoln and he died soon after this. Nicholas II, s. and h., d. 1233, when the lands passed to his nephew Eustace, s. and h. of Robert d. 1213, elder brother of Nicholas II. Eustace d. 1241. His heir was his cousin JOAN, da. of Nicholas II.
JOAN, d. 1276, m., firstly, Hugh Wake d. 1241. She m., secondly, Hugh Bigod, Chief Justiciar in 1259, by whom she was mother of Roger Bigod, d.s.p. 1306, Earl of Norfolk. Her lands passed to her son Baldwin Wake d. 1282.
Additional Curator's Notes:
There were at least five generations of d'Estouteville men named Robert. In order to keep the generations straight the roman numerals I through V have been added to the names. These men did not use such numbers. They used toponyms and titles to clarify who each Robert was. Those Roberts numbered by this curator are:
Robert "Estout Le Danois" d'Estouteville, numbered i
Robert ler Grandbois d'Estouteville, Baron of Cottingham, numbered II
Robert d'Estouteville III, Lord of Cottingham, numbered III
Robert de Stuteville IV, Sheriff of Yorkshire, Lord of Cottingham, numbered IV
Robert de Stuteville, V
Hopefully, this will prevent mis-merging the generations without the need to lock profiles. Maria Edmonds-Zediker, Volunteer Curator, Nov. 25, 2014

Wikipedia's page on the Battle of Tinchebray:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Tinchebray
The Battle of Tinchebray (alternate spellings Tinchebrai or Tenchebrai) was fought 28 September 1106, in the town of Tinchebray (in today's Orne département of France - 48 45' 54.98"N, 0 43' 40.18"W), Normandy, between an invading force led by Henry I of England, and his older brother Robert Curthose, the Duke of Normandy.
Henry's knights won a decisive victory, capturing Robert and imprisoning him in England and then Wales until Robert's death in Cardiff Castle. England and Normandy remained under a single ruler until 1204.
The previous year Henry had invaded Normandy, taking Bayeux and Caen. He was forced to break off his campaign owing to political problems arising from the Investiture Controversy. With these settled, he returned to Normandy in the summer of 1106. After quickly taking the fortified abbey of Saint-Pierre sur Dives (near Falaise), Henry turned south and besieged the castle of Tinchebray, on a hill above the town. Tinchebray is on the border of the county of Mortain, in the southwest of Normandy, and was held by the count, who was one of the few important Norman barons still loyal to Robert.
Robert brought up his forces to break the siege, and, after some unsuccessful negotiations, battle was inevitable.
Henry's army was organized into three groups (as was usual for the period). These were commanded by Ranulf of Bayeux, Robert de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Leicester, and William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey. In addition he had a reserve, commanded by Elias I of Maine, out of sight on the flank. Also on Henry's side were Alan IV, Duke of Brittany, William, Count of Evreux, Ralph of Tosny, Robert of Montfort, and Robert of Grandmesil. On Robert Curthose's side were William, Count of Mortain, and Robert of Bellême, 3rd Earl of Shrewsbury.
The battle itself only lasted an hour. Notably, Henry ordered much of his force of knights to dismount, as he did himself: unusually for Norman battle tactics, infantry played a decisive role. The count charged the front line, comprising troops of Bayeux, Avranches and the Cotentin.[1] The intervention of Henry's reserve proved decisive. Most of Robert's army was captured or killed. Besides Robert himself, those captured include Edgar Atheling (uncle of Henry's wife), and William, count of Mortain.
Most of the prisoners were released, but Robert Curthose and William of Mortain were to spend the rest of their lives in captivity.

Ben notes: After reviewing the Pais de Caux on Google Earth, it seemed more likely that Estouteville refers to the inland Estouteville-Ecalle than any location "by the sea" ("sur Mer"). The most likely alternative on the sea appeared to be Sotteville-sur-Mer, but there was nothing remarkable that suggested a castle might have once been sited at that location.

STUTEVILLE, ROBERT DE (d. 1186), baron and justiciar, was son of Robert de Stuteville, one of the northern barons who commanded the English at the battle of the Standard in August 1138 (Gesta Stcphani, p. 160).
His grandfather, Robert Grundebeof, had supported Robert of Normandy at Tenchebrai in 1106, where he was. taken captive and kept in prison for the rest of his life (RoG. Hov. iv. 117-18).
Dugdale makes one person of the Robert Stuteville who fought at the battle of the Standard and the justiciar, but in this he was no doubt in error.

[And on the identification of Erneburga as daughter of Hugh FizBaldric, in a post 9 Sep 2002:
Moriarty assumed Ernneburga was fitzBaldric's daughter because around 1087 some of Hugh FitzBaldric's lands found their way into Stuteville hands. Moriarty appears unaware that they had been confiscated and there is no evidence to support the assumption that Erneburga was Hugh's daughter. Other major landholders such as the Brus family received portions of fitz Baldric lands too. Hugh's known sons-in-law included Walter de Rivere and Guy de Craon. [K-R Domesday People,267-268].
---------------------------
Robert de Estoteville acquired a great inheritance with his wife, Eneburga, daughter and heir of Hugh, son of Baldrick, a great Saxon thane, and among other lands, had the lordship of Schypwyc, or Skipwic. He left three sons, Robert, Osmund, and Patrick.

However, because of his father's participation and the resulting penalties of that, the son too (then roughly age 36) suffered from the loss of family property when the Yorkshire lands of Robert I de Stuteville were forfeited and given over to Nigel d'Alpini, father of Roger de Mowbray.
(http://www.farndale.info/Main%20Folders/History/Chapter%201.htm)
From the Wikipedia page on the Battle of the Standard (which Robert de Stuteville II apparently fought):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Standard
The Battle of the Standard, sometimes called the Battle of Northallerton, in which English forces repelled a Scottish army, took place on 22 August 1138 on Cowton Moor near Northallerton in Yorkshire.
The Scottish forces were led by King David I of Scotland. The English were commanded by William of Aumale.
King Stephen of England (fighting rebel barons in the south) had sent a small force (largely mercenaries), but the English army was mainly local militia and baronial retinues from Yorkshire and the north Midlands (including that of our ancestor).
Archbishop Thurstan of York had exerted himself greatly to raise the army, preaching that to withstand the Scots was to do God·Äôs work. The centre of the English position was therefore marked by a mast (mounted upon a cart) bearing a pyx carrying the consecrated host and from which were flown the consecrated banners of the minsters of York, Beverley and Ripon: hence the name of the battle.
David had entered England for two declared reasons[1], :
1. To support his niece Matilda's claim to the English throne against that of King Stephen (married to another niece) [2]
2. To enlarge his kingdom beyond his previous gains.[3]
David·Äôs forces had already taken much of Northumberland apart from castles at Wark[4] and Bamburgh. Advancing beyond the Tees towards York, early on 22 August 1138 the Scots found the English army drawn up on open fields two miles north of Northallerton; they formed up in four ·Äòlines·Äô to attack it.
The first attack, by unarmoured spearmen against armoured men (including dismounted knights) supported by telling fire from archers failed. Within 3 hours, the Scots army disintegrated apart from small bodies of knights and men-at-arms around David and his son Henry.
At this point Henry led a spirited attack with mounted knights; he and David then withdrew separately with their immediate companions in relatively good order. Heavy Scots losses are claimed, in battle and in flight.
The English did not pursue far; David fell back to Carlisle and reassembled an army. Within a month a truce was negotiated which left the Scots free to continue the siege of Wark castle, which eventually fell.
Despite losing the battle, David was subsequently given most of the territorial concessions he had been seeking (which the chronicles say he had been offered before he crossed the Tees). David held these throughout the Anarchy, but on the death of David, his successor Malcolm IV of Scotland was soon forced to surrender David's gains to Henry II of England.
Some chronicle accounts of the battle include an invented pre-battle speech on the glorious deeds of the Normans, occasionally quoted as good contemporary evidence of the high opinion the Normans held of themselves.
Battle of the Standard
Battlefield and English Dispositions
Moving south from the Tees David·Äôs army would have had the high ground of the North Yorkshire Moors on its left, and the River Swale on its right. Nearing Northallerton, the distance between hills and river is about 8 miles, much of it low-lying and (then) poorly drained. The road to Northallerton from the Tees (the Great North Road) therefore approaches the town along a ridge of slightly higher ground running North-South . Minor ups and downs break the line of sight along the ridge, but the ·Äòups·Äô are hills only in relation to the low ground on either side of the ridge [24][25].
The English army deployed across this ridge about 2 miles north of Northallerton in a single solid formation with the armoured men and most of the knights (who had dismounted, and sent their horses to the rear) to the front supported by the archers and the more lightly equipped men of the local levies.
The barons stood with the remaining dismounted knights at the centre of the line around the standard [10]. Their left is thought to have straddled the road, with its flank protected by a marsh; it is not known if the low ground to the east of the ridge was similarly boggy, or if the English formation extended that far.
Scots Arrive and Deploy
John of Worcester says that David intended to take the English by surprise, there being a very close mist that day. Richard of Hexham says simply that the Scots became aware of the standard (and by implication the army underneath it) at no great distance.[26]
·ÄúIn front of the battle were the Picts; in the centre, the king with his knights and English; the rest of the barbarian host poured roaring around them. The king and almost all his followers were on foot, their horses being kept at a distance.·Äù [27]
Ailred of Rievaulx gives the eventual deployment of the Scots as being in four ·Äòlines·Äô. The Galwegians - described by a later chronicler [28] as"men agile, unclothed, remarkable for much baldness; arming their left side with knives formidable to any armed men, having a hand most skillful at throwing spears and directing them from a distance; raising their long lance as a standard when they advance into battle" - were in the first line.
"The second line the King's son Prince Henry arranged with great wisdom; with himself the knights and archers, adding to their number the Cumbrians and Teviotdalesmen ... The men of Lothian formed the third rank, with the islanders and the men of Lorne. The King kept in his own line the Scots and Moravians; several also of the English and French knights he appointed as his bodyguard.·Äù[29]
Henry of Huntingdon's account of the battle would imply that the men of Lothian with their ·Äòlong spears·Äô were in the first line; however, the generally accepted view is that the long spears were those of the Galwegians.[30].
Scots argue
Ailred says (but this may be a literary device) that this order of battle was decided at the last minute; David had intended to attack first with his knights and armoured men-at-arms, but had faced strong protests from the Galwegians that they should be given the honour of attacking first, since they had already demonstrated at Clitheroe that the vigour of their attack was sufficient to rout Normans in armour.
David, however, paid more attention to the counter-argument of his Normans; that if the Galwegians failed the rest of the army would lose heart. The Galwegians resumed their protest [31], and the debate was not aided by a mormaer (one of David·Äôs native ·Äògreat lords·Äô)[32] asking why David listened to 'foreigners' when none of those with armour on would this day outdo the mormaer who wore no armour [33].
And Alan de Percy, base-born son of the great Alan - a most vigorous knight, and in military matters highly distinguished - took these words ill; and turning to the earl he said, 'A great word hast thou spoken, and one which for thy life thou canst not make good this day.' Then the king, restraining both, lest a disturbance should suddenly arise out of this altercation, yielded to the will of the Galwegians .[34].
Anglo-Normans orate
Both Ailred and Henry of Huntingdon report a speech made to the Anglo-Normans before battle was joined. The speech may well be a literary device of the chroniclers, to present the reasons why it was fit and proper that the Normans should win, rather than accurate reportage of an actual speech.
Ailred of Rievaulx says the speech was made by Walter Espec, Sheriff of York (and founder of Rievaulx). Henry of Huntingdon and after him Roger of Hoveden say the speech was made by Radulf Novell Bishop of Orkney as the representative of Thurstan.[35][36]
The speaker first reminds the Normans of the military prowess of their race (especially when compared to the Scots):
"Most illustrious nobles of England, Normans by birth, ... consider who you are, and against whom, and where it is, you are waging war; for then no one shall with impunity resist your prowess. Bold France, taught by experience, has quailed beneath your valour, fierce England, led captive, has submitted to you; rich Apulia, on having you for her masters, has flourished once again; Jerusalem so famed, and illustrious Antioch, have bowed themselves before you; and now Scotland, which of right is subject to you[37], attempts to show resistance, displaying a temerity not warranted by her arms, more fitted indeed for rioting than for battle. These are people, in fact, who have no knowledge of military matters, no skill in fighting, no moderation in ruling. There is no room then left for fear, but rather for shame, that those whom we have always sought on their own soil and overcome ..have ...come flocking into our country."[36]
He next assures them that God has chosen them to punish the Scots:
"This .. has been brought about by Divine Providence; in order that those who have in this country violated the temples of God, stained the altars with blood, slain his priests, spared neither children nor pregnant women, may on the same spot receive the condign punishment of their crimes; and this most just resolve of the Divine will, God will this day put in execution by means of your hands. Arouse your spirits then, ye civilized warriors, and, firmly relying on the valour of your country, nay, rather on the presence of God, arise against these most unrighteous foes"[36]
Any keenness of the Scots to attack is because they don't understand the superiority of Norman equipment:
"And let not their rashness move you, because so many insignia of your valour cause no alarm to them. They know not how to arm themselves for battle; whereas you, during the time of peace, prepare yourselves for war, in order that in battle you may not experience the doubtful contingencies of warfare. Cover your heads then with the helmet, your breasts with the coat of mail, your legs with the greaves, and your bodies with the shield, that so the foeman may not find where to strike at you, on seeing you thus surrounded on every side with iron."[36]
Furthermore, the Scots' advantage in numbers is no advantage at all, especially when they are up against properly trained Norman knights:
"[I]t is not so much the numbers of the many as the valour of the few that gains the battle. For a multitude unused to discipline is a hindrance to itself, when successful, in completing the victory, when routed, in taking to flight. Besides your forefathers, when but few in number, have many a time conquered multitudes; what then is the natural consequence of the glories of your ancestry, your constant exercises, your military discipline, but that though fewer in number, you should overcome multitudes?"[36]
The bishop then finishes by promising that anyone who dies in battle against the Scots this day will go straight to Heaven with all his sins forgiven.[38] These preliminaries over, the battle begins.
Galwegian attack is held and fails
The battle began with a charge by the Galwegian spearmen who "after their custom gave vent thrice to a yell of horrible sound[39], and attacked the southerns in such an onslaught that they compelled the first spearmen to forsake their post; but they were driven off again by the strength of the knights, and [the spearmen] recovered their courage and strength against the foe. And when the frailty of the Scottish lances was mocked by the denseness of iron and wood they drew their swords and attempted to contend at close quarters" [40]
The English archery caused disorganisation and heavy casualties in the Scottish ranks. Ailred records the bravery and determination of the Galwegians, together with its ineffectiveness:
"like a hedgehog with its quill, so would you see a Galwegian bristling all round with arrows, and nonetheless brandishing his sword, and in blind madness rushing forward now smite a foe, now lash the air with useless strokes".[41]
The Galwegians finally fled after the death of two of their leaders (Domnall and Ulgric); the men of Lothian similarly broke after the earl of Lothian was killed by an arrow [42]
The King retreats; Prince Henry attacks
David wished to stand and fight, but was forced onto his horse and compelled to retire by his friends. Ailred simply says that the English were advancing; Henry of Huntingdon says that David's 'line' had been progressively melting away.
Prince Henry led mounted men in a charge on the Anglo-Norman position, as or just after the Scots foot broke. According to Ailred, Henry successfully broke through and attacked the horse-holders in the rear of the Anglo-Norman position; the 'unarmed men' (i.e. unarmoured men) were dispersed, and only rallied by a claim that the Scottish king was dead.
Since Prince Henry was unsupported and the rest of the army was withdrawing, for the most part in great disorder, he hid any banners showing his party to be Scottish, and retreated towards David by joining the English pursuing him. Henry of Huntingdon is keener to stress Henry's inability to shake the armoured men; again the attack ends in flight [43]
"Next, the king·Äôs troop ... began to drop off, at first; man by man, and afterwards in bodies, the king standing firm, and being at last left almost alone. The king·Äôs friends seeing this, forced him to mount his horse and take to flight; but Henry, his valiant son, not heeding what he saw being done by his men, but solely intent on glory and valour, while the rest were taking to flight, most bravely charged the enemy·Äôs line, and shook it by the wondrous vigour of his onset. For his troop was the only one mounted on horseback, and consisted of English and Normans, who formed a part of his father·Äôs household. His horsemen, however, were not able long to continue their attacks against soldiers on foot, cased in mail, and standing immoveable in close and dense ranks; but, with their lances broken and their horses wounded, were compelled to take to flight."[36]
Scots Rout & Casualties
The battle lasted no longer than between prime and terce [44] , and by mid-morning all elements of the Scottish army were in retreat or flight. No numbers are given for total English losses but they are said to have been light; of the knights present, only one was killed.
Scottish casualties during the battle proper cannot be separated from losses whilst fleeing in the 10 or so hours of daylight remaining. The chroniclers talk variously of the fugitives scattering in all directions, of their attempting to cross the Tees where there was no ford and drowning, of their being found and killed in cornfields and woods, and of fighting between the various contingents.
Richard of Hexham says that of the army which came forth from Scotland, more than 10,000 were missing from the re-mustered survivors. Later chroniclers built upon this to claim 10-12,000 Scots killed.[45]. John of Worcester gives more details on the fortunes of the Scots knights
"But of [David's] army nearly 10,000 fell in different places, and as many as 50,000 were captured of his picked men. But the king's son came on foot with one knight only to Carlisle, while his father scarce escaped through woods and passes to Roxburgh. Of 200 mailed knights whom [David] had, only 19 brought back their hauberks [46] ; because each had abandoned as booty to the foe almost everything that he had. And thus very great spoils were taken from his army, as well of horses and arms and raiment as of very many other things"[47].
From a BBC History of the World report on the silver penny of Robert de Stuteville (pictured in profile):
http://www.bbc.co.uk/ahistoryoftheworld/objects/bHjsvaBrRrGw6bo7sJo0ng
This extremely rare silver penny of the Yorkshire baron, Robert de Stuteville, is also the best surviving example known. Here we see him as a mounted knight in armour, wearing a pointed war helmet and brandishing a huge sword, galloping along on his horse. This coin is struck in Robert's own name; the inscription around the edge tells us who he is. Stephen's reign was defined by civil war and anarchy and the style of the king's own coins was very poor. Wealthy barons, like Robert de Stuteville, struck their own coins to finance their support of, or opposition to, King Stephen.
Robert's family figures prominently in the history of early medieval England. As one of Stephen's supporters, he was among the leaders at the Battle of the Standard in 1138 where Stephen defeated David I, King of Scotland.
Stephen was a weak leader and many of the barons took the law into their own hands. His reign has been described as "the nineteen year winter" because the ordinary people suffered unrest and poverty, high taxes and exploitation. Wars were financed by wealthy people who used them as a way to make even more money and become more powerful.
According to the History page of the Kirbymoorside Town Council in Yorkshire:
http://www.kirkbymoorsidetowncouncil.gov.uk/Contents/Text/Index.asp?SiteId=482&SiteExtra=17650623&TopNavId=445&NavSideId=7039
With William the Conqueror came the ·ÄôHarrying of the North·Äô; Saxon landowners gave way to his supporters and in Kirkbymoorside Torbrant was replaced by Hugh Fitzbaldric and then Robert de Stuteville. The Stuteville family built a moated wooden castle on Vivers Hill behind the church with commanding views of the town and beyond.
Presumably, he also made Cropton Castle ("commanding an excellent defensive position overlooking Rosedale... today, earthworks of the motte and bailey remain"):

Robert de Estoteville acquired a great inheritance with his wife, Eneburga, daughter and heir of Hugh, son of Baldrick, a great Saxon thane, and among other lands, had the lordship of Schypwyc, or Skipwic. He left three sons, Robert, Osmund, and Patrick.
