Theobald de Valeines (fl. 1135), a tenant of the count of Brittany (honorof Richmond) in Parham, as well as co. Norfolk and Yorkshire, marriedHelewise -- [15, 3]. He was probably a son of Hamo de Valenis who heldParham as the Domesday tenant of count Alan Rufus [15].
also at a later date, 8 Apr 1999, Raymond Phair posts:
Theobald I was probably a son of Hamo de Valenis; see my 21 Feb 1999posting about Ranulf de Glanville. Very little is known about Theobald.He occured in the 1130 pipe roll and in 2 charters (about 1135) [1]. TheValognes fee is described by Clay in EYC vol.5, who noted that noconnection has been discovered to the Domesday sheriff of Essex, Peter deValognes, nor any other family using the name Valognes. Theobald's familyname was usually spelled Valeines or Velaines.
His grandson, Theobald de Valeines II (son of Robert), founder ofHickling priory in co. Norfolk, justice, and sheriff of Norfolk andSuffolk, died before Michaelmas 1209 when his son Thomas had succeeded[2]. Thomas, according to Dugdale, was one of the barons who rebelledagainst king John [3]. Clay, Mortimer, and Brown, have discussed otherrelatives, as well as possible ones, of Theobald I [4].
