Biography
"He had paid homage to Henry III for his father's lands by 19 November 1246. He had one brother, Ralph (d. before 1240), and his sister Alice married Peter de Montfort. In 1244 Audley married Ela (d. 1299) daughter of William (II) Longespée (c.1209-1250), claimant to the earldom of Salisbury and cousin of Henry III.
"Audley almost certainly went on pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela in 1268, and as a crusader he received a judicial protection on 10 July 1270 to accompany the Lord Edward to the Holy Land. But he never went, as he was appointed Edward's justiciar for Ireland on or before 8 August. He held the post until his death in Ireland, which resulted from a broken neck, on or about 11 June 1272. He was succeeded by his son James, who did homage on 29 July 1272." (Ref: ODNB)
Children
The couple had five sons: James, Henry, William, Nicholas, and Hugh, who succeeded to the family estates, which were overwhelmingly concentrated in Staffordshire, Shropshire, and Cheshire.
