Hugh Talbot: 2nd son, born about 1085, was made Castellan (Governor) of Plesses, in Normandy, by his cousin, Hugh de Gournay, in 1119. He was a benefactor of the monastery of Beaubec, in Normandy, and in the decline of life, assumed the cowl there. He married Beatrice, daughter of William de Mandeville, who was divorced from him and married William de Say, and Hugh became a monk.
