Acharter of confirmation to Rievaulx abbey c.1160-1183 for thehealth of his soul and the souls of Robert de Stuteville hisgrandfather, Robert his father, Erneburga his mother andHelewise his wife, and with the consent of his son William,presents the Stuteville family over four generations. ['Robertusde Stutevilla.sciatis me dedissee et confirmasse Deo etEcclesiae S. Mariae Rievallis, pro salute animae meae, etRoberti de Stutevilla, avi mei, et Roberti, patris m mei, etErneburge, matris meae, et Helewisae uxoris meae, . in perpetuamelemosinam, concessu Willelmi filii mei, et aliorum filiorummeorum, totam terram de Houetona.'

As 'domina Helewis uxor Roberti deStuteuilla' with Osmund 'filius ejus' she witnessed a charter ofWilliam de Vescy to the brethren of Farne Island in about 1183.Robert had an interest in Cowesby as shown by a charter ofnotification dated around 1164-74, by Roger archbishop of Yorkof the settlement of the controversy between Hugh bishop ofDurham and Robert de Stuteville relating to the chapel ofCowesby. The dispute continued, however, after his death underthe aegis of his son Osmund. Robert died in 1183.

        From Robert were descended the territorial lords of Cottingham,whose male line terminated in the 17th of Henry III [1233].[John Burke & John Bernard Burke, Extinct and DormantBaronetcies of England, Ireland, and Scotland, Second Edition,Scott, Webster, & Geary, London, 1841, p. 486, Skipwith, ofNewbold Hall]

        ----------------------------

        The family of Skipwith, originally written Schypwyc, denominatedfrom a town and lordship so called in the East Riding of York,descends from Robert de Estoteville, Baron of Cottingham, in thetime of the Conqueror, of whom and his descendants, the feudallords of Cottingham, Dugdale treats at great length in theBaronage. [John Burke & John Bernard Burke, Extinct and DormantBaronetcies of England, Ireland, and Scotland, Second Edition,Scott, Webster, & Geary, London, 1841, p. 486, Skipwith, ofNewbold Hall]

        Note: The above source has Patrick de Skipwith descending fromRobert's father (also Robert). Burke's Peerage indicates thatPatrick was a younger son of this Robert.

        Note:
        was originally was following Turton, who has William as son ofRobert & Sibyl de Valognes, which would make him much youngerthan I have him now. I have changed William's ancestry based onthe information from Rosie Bevan & Curt Hofemann given below.

        The following is excerpted from a post to SGM, 7 Sep 2002, byRosie Bevan:

        From: 'Rosie Bevan' (rbevan@paradise.net.nz)
        Subject: Stuteville of Cottingham

        - William son and heir, the king's justice. Married Bertapossibly granddaughter (as she appears younger than the 4daughters and outlived them) of Ranulf de Glanville. [The DurhamLiber Vitae lists 'Rannulfus de Glanvile et uxor ejus Berta,Matillis, Amabilis, Helewisa, Mabilia filae eorum, et Berct'].On the death of her son Berta's property fell to Ranulf son ofRobert of Middleham, Thomas de Arderne and Hugh de Aubervillewho each had a third of her lands in Bramham and Leyburn. Allthree were sons and representatives of the daughters of Ranulphde Glanville. Hugh d.1203, leaving son and heir Robert IV whodied s.p.under age in 1205. William also had an illegitimatedaughter.

        NOTE: I believe Rosie meant William instead of Hugh, who died in1203, leaving Robert IV. According to a prior post by Rosie,William d. 1203.

        The following information is provided in a post-em by CurtHofemann, curt_hofemann@yahoo.com:

        This needs more research. I show this William & Nicholas whomarried Gunnora d'Aubigny as brothers not father & son. Source:'English Baronies, A Study of Their Origin and Descent1086-1327' by Ivor John Sanders, 1960, Clarendon Press, Oxford.

        I do note that Turton & Watney show them as father & son, but asfar as credibility/reliability, I choose Sanders - my opiniononly.

        Baron of Cottingham [Ref: Sanders p37]

        Research note: Turton also mistakenly makes Bertha (niece ofRanulph) and William de Stuteville ancestors of the laterStutevilles. [Turton, W H *The Plantagenet Ancestry* (London,1928 [Reprint by GPC 1993]) 123, 106] [Ref: Richard Borthwickmessage to soc.genealogy.medieval 1 Sep 1998]

        Lord de Stuteville, who married Bertha de Glanville, probablygave the Church of Dedham, in the Hundred of Lexden, Essex, toButley Priory, founded by Lord Ranulph de Glanville, his wife'suncle. This gift continued to be held by the Prior of Butleyuntil the dissolution. The Stutevilles were a great baronialhouse; they came in at the Conquest, and received largepossessions in England. Robert de Stuteville fought againstHenry I. at Tenerchebrai, and was taken prisoner. [fn 86] Thefamily was officially connected with the Glanvilles in theNorth, and a close friendship appears to have existed betweenthe two houses. One of them married a daughter of the DeValoins, which probably cemented still closer the families.William de Stuteville, of Gressenhall, Norfolk (a baron of therealm), espoused Margaret, daughter and heiress of Hugh de Say,of Richard's Castle, from whose descendants it passed by afemale to the Talbots. The arms of Stuteville and Glanville arestill to be seen at Richard's Castle. Bertha de Stuteville (neeGlanville) brought with her, on her marriage, the lordships ofBraham and Leyburn. She had two sons, Robert, ob. s.p.; andNicholas, who succeeded his brother (7th John). He marriedGunnora, daughter of Hugh de Gurney, and relict of Robert deGant, and by her had issue Nicholas de Stuteville, who died,17th Henry III., leaving two daughters and coheiresses -Johanna, who married Hugh de Wake; and Margaret, the wife ofWilliam Mastoc. [fn 87] In the year 1207, Robert, son and heirof Ralph, Lord of Middleham, who married Helwisa de Glanville,daughter of Lord Ranulph de Glanville, the Chief Justiciary,gave 200 marks fine to the King for livery of the propertybelonging to Bertha, niece of Lord Banulph de Glanville, andwife of William de Stuteville, lying in Leyburn and Barham. [fn86] Banks says that the family of Skipwiths descend from ayounger son of this personage [Ref: Records of the Anglo-NormanHouse of Glanville from A.D. 1050 to 1880, by Wm. Urmston S.Glanville-Richard, Esq. (London: Mitchell and Hughes 1882)http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/jglanville/roanhg5.htm]

        Caveat Emptor, this last ref. differs from my research in placestoo.
