Notes par SAHER de QUINCY

The family of de Quincy had arrived in England after the Norman Conquest, and took their name from Cuinchy in the Arrondissement of Béthune; the personal name "Saer" was used by them over several generations. Both names are variously spelled in primary sources and older modern works, the first name being sometimes rendered Saher or Seer, and the surname as Quency or Quenci.

The first recorded Saer de Quincy (known to historians as "Saer I") was lord of the manor of Long Buckby in Northamptonshire in the earlier twelfth century, and second husband of Matilda of St Liz, stepdaughter of King David I of Scotland by Maud of Northumbria. This marriage produced two sons, Saer II and Robert de Quincy. It was Robert, the younger son, who was the father of the Saer de Quincy who eventually became Earl of Winchester. By her first husband Robert Fitz Richard, Matilda was also the paternal grandmother of Earl Saer's close ally, Robert Fitzwalter.

Robert de Quincy seems to have inherited no English lands from his father, and pursued a knightly career in Scotland, where he is recorded from around 1160 as a close companion of his cousin, King William the Lion. By 1170 he had married Orabilis, heiress of the Scottish lordship of Leuchars and, through her, he became lord of an extensive complex of estates north of the border which included lands in Fife, Strathearn and Lothian.

The name is recorded early as Quency, and it is presumed that he derived the name from Cuinchy, near Bethune, on the border of Artois and Flanders, which is a short distance from Chocques, the original home of his Northants overlord, Anselm de Chokes. He was a tenant of the latter at Long Buckby in Northants, circa 1124-29. He married the widow of Robert Fitz Richard de Clare, namely Maud, daughter of Simon de St. Liz, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton. He was living in Jan 1145/46, but was deceased probably around 1156-58, and Maud was still living 1158, but was apparently dead in 1163. SOURCE: Geneajourney.com
