WALTER OF GLOUCESTER
Walter of Gloucester (also Walter Fitz Roger or Walter de Pitres) (d.c.1129) was an early Anglo - Norman official of the King of England during the early years of the Norman conquest of the South Welsh Marches. He was a sheriff of Gloucester and also a Constable under Henry I.......Walter of Gloucester was the son of Roger de Pitres and his wife, Adeliza, and was the earliest to use the style "of Gloucester" in his family. A landholder himself at the time of Domesday, by 1095 Walter had control of the bulk of the estates formerly held by Roger, his father, and Durand, his uncle. In addition, Walter acquired other estates by royal grants. These estates were principally in four shires -- Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, and Wiltshire.......He was hereditary High Sheriff of Gloucestershire in 1097 and 1105 - 1106. Sometimes called 'Constable of England', he may only have been constable of Gloucester Castle. He is recorded as being a constable of the royal household of Henry I from 1114 on. Walter erected or had a part in the erection of the castles of Bristol and Rochester, as well as the Tower of London. Walter donated Westwood to Gloucester Abbey for the soul of his brother Herbert and confirmed a grant of Colne by his father Roger. He endowed the canons of Llanthony Priory in Wales with lands from his lordship of Beryntone and retired to the abbey in his old age, where he died a monk and was buried in the chapter house, about 1129.......He was married to Bertha, a relative of Hamelin de Balun, Lord of Abergavenny. They were the parents of -- 1.) Miles of Gloucester, 1st Earl of Hereford, 2.) Matilda, who married a Richard Fitz Pons.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Llanthony_Priory The priory dates back to around the year 1100, when one of Hugh de Lacy's knights called William reputedly came upon a ruined chapel of St. David in this location; he was inspired to devote himself to solitary prayer and study. He was joined by Ersinius, a former Chaplain to Queen Matilda, the wife of King Henry I, and then a band of followers.[5] A church was built on the site, dedicated to St John the Baptist, and consecrated in 1108. By 1118, a group of around 40 canons founded there a priory of Canons Regular, the first in Wales.
Walter of Gloucester was born to Roger de Pitres and Adeliza MNU de Pitres. Walter married Bertha MNU and had 2 children: Miles of Gloucester, 1st Earl of Hereford and Matilda, who married a Richard Fitz Pons. He passed away on c. 1129 in Gloucester Abbey (now Gloucester Cathedral), Gloucester, England and was buried in the chapter house there.

Biography
Birth and Parents
Walter was the son of Roger de Pitres and nephew of Durand of Gloucester. [1]
He was a Norman from Pitres, Eure, can. Pont-de-l'Arche. [1]
The name of his mother, Adeliza, is supplied in Cart. S. Petri Gloc i.81, 125, 188-9, 353; ii/ 129. [1]
Birth Year Estimation: His father's birth having been estimated as 1040, estimated his own birth as 1065.
Donations
He occurs ibid., i.123, as donor of Westwood for the soul of his brother Herbert, and confirming a grant of his father Roger at Colne (ibid., ii, 235). [1]
Walter donated Westwood to Gloucester Abbey for the soul of his brother Herbert and confirmed a grant of Colne by his father Roger. He endowed the canons of Llanthony Priory in Wales with lands from his lordship of Beryntone and retired to the abbey in his old age where he died a monk and was buried in the chapter house. [2]
1097 Sheriff of Gloucestershire
Sheriff of Gloucestershire; that office, with the office of castellan of Gloucester Castle, was passed to him circa 1097. Like his father, he held Gloucester Castle directly from the king. He was given a wide range of duties, including responsibilities in south Wales, and he acquired the office of royal constable, probably in 1114. [2]
1109 Defense of Carmarthen
In 1109, King Henry sent Walter, then perhaps his most experienced administrator, to command the castle of Rhyd y Gors near Carmarthan, Merlin's town. The defense of this territory now depended upon the castle built on a bluff above the river at Carmarthan. That was to remain a royal castle and the center of royal influence in south Wales. For this and other service, Walter reaped a succession of comparatively minor rewards in lands and offices. [2]
1112 Additional Castles
Before 1112 Walter built a new castle at Gloucester west of Barbican hill on a former garden of Gloucester Abbey, overlooking the Severn.[2]
Walter erected or had a part in the erection of the castles of Bristol and Rochester as well as the Tower of London. [2]
1129 Death
At his death in 1129 Walter left issue by his wife Bertha of Miles of Gloucester (q.v.) and Matilda, wife of Richard fitz Pons (q.v.); Comp. Peer. vi, 451-7. [1]
