The parentage of Eudes [I], the earliest recorded member of the Dammartin families in England, is not known. According to Domesday Descendants, he was the son of Hugues [I] Comte de Dammartin[1], but it is unclear whether this suggestion is based on a specific source. Another possibility is that Eudes was a knight who took his name from the castle of Dammartin but was either unrelated, or related only distantly, to the comital family. The name Manassès, used by the main English Dammartin family, was associated with the earlier comital family in France, but it would be unsafe to draw any firm conclusions about a family relationship based on this single onomastic connection. A further difficulty is introduced by an undated charter, quoted below, which was witnessed by numerous Dammartin individuals. The original of this charter has not been seen, but Evans indicated that the document “could not be [dated] later than 1135”[2]. The basis for this assessment is not known. If it is correct, all the named individuals could not have been descended from Eudes [I], which would indicate that other Dammartin individuals accompanied him to England. However, the document would make more sense if dated to the 1170s, in which case it would be chronologically feasible for Eudes [I] to have been the ancestor of all the witnesses.

EUDES [I] de Dammartin, son of --- (-before [1129/30]). "...Odo de Domino Martino..." witnessed the charter dated 1113 which records that "Rohes", wife of Richard son of Earl Gilbert, donated property to Bec Sainte-Marie and St. Neot of Eynulfisbury[3]. Ralph Archbishop of Canterbury confirmed the possessions of Lewes priory by charter dated 1121, including property "in episcopatu Wintoniensi...ecclesia de Gatetuna" donated by "Herfredus et...Oddo de Donmartini et ecclesia de Suthwerca"[4]. It is unclear from the full text of this document whether it was the same property jointly owned by the two donors which was donated, or whether the two individuals were unconnected. [Lord of Mendlesham, Suffolk: the Testa de Nevill includes a writ of King John dated 1212 which records that King Henry I granted "Mendlesh" in Suffolk to "Odoni de Danmartin" and that it was then held by "Roberto…de Burgate…cum uxore sua heredi Willelmi de Danmartin"[5]. It is more likely that “Odoni de Danmartin” in this document was Eudes [I] than Eudes [II] as the property in question passed to descendants of Manasses, son of Eudes [I], not to Eudes [II] and his descendants.]

m BASILIA, daughter of --- (-after [1129/30]). The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Basilia uxor Odon de Domartino…arg. dote sua" in Norfolk[6]. There is no proof that she was the mother of all the children of Eudes [I]. The daughter of Eudes [I]’s son Stephen was named Basilia, which suggests that she was the mother at least of some of Eudes’s younger children.

Eudes [I] & [his wife] had [seven] children:

1. EUDES [II] de Dammartin (before [1110]-after 1154). The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Odo fil Odon de Domartino" in Suffolk (precise place not specified)[7]. As Eudes held the property in his own name, it is unlikely that he was born later than [1110]. He is the only one of the sons of Eudes [I] who is recorded in this Pipe Roll, which suggests that he was his father’s oldest son. An undated charter records that Simon Earl of Northampton and Huntingdon enfeoffed “Odonis de Domnomartino” with “terram de Bogeton...et Wrastingewerd et terram de Bechansted” [Buckden (Huntingdonshire), Wrestlingworth (Bedfordshire), Beachamstead (Huntingdonshire)], dated to [1152/53][8]. His death during the early years of the reign of King Henry II is confirmed by the Red Book of the Exchequer which, in 1166, records that [his son] "Odonis de Danmartino" certified that “pater meus” had held one knight’s fee in Norfolk [unspecified] from “avo vestro [King Henry I] et de vobis [King Henry II]”, which “Odonis” currently held from King Henry II[9]. In this entry it is likely that “pater meus” refers to Eudes [II] as he is the only known son of Eudes [I] who was deceased at the time. m ---. The name of Eudes’s wife is not known. Eudes [II] & his wife had one child:

a) EUDES [III] de Dammartin (-after [1168], maybe after [1196/97]). His succession to the lands of his father (who is assumed to have been Eudes [II], although this is not specified in the document) is confirmed by the Red Book of the Exchequer which, in 1166, records that "Odonis de Danmartino" certified that “pater meus” had held one knight’s fee in Norfolk [unspecified] from “avo vestro [King Henry I] et de vobis [King Henry II]”, which “Odonis” currently held from King Henry II[10]. “Odo de Dan Martin son of Odo de Dan Martin” donated “land in Chertehamme which is of my fee of Tunrugge and...in Chepstede...[and] of Mecheleham” to Lewes St. Pancras, “as the charter of my uncle [maybe William, see below] and my father Odo which they hold”, by undated charter[11]. The 1167/68 Pipe Roll records "Manaser de Damartin, Albic de Damartin...Odo de Damartin" each returning for one knight’s fee in Norfolk and Suffolk[12]. Eudes’s name appears in this record in a separate section from Manassès and Aubry. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Odo de Danmartin i m" in Norfolk, Suffolk in [1167/68][13]. The 1176/77 Pipe Roll names "Odone de Dammartin" in Norfolk and Suffolk[14]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Odo de Danmartin xx s, comes Albericus de Danmartin xx s, et in perdone xx s" in Norfolk, Suffolk in [1186/87][15]. The 1186/87 Pipe Roll names "Odo de Dammartin, Comes Albericus de Dammartin" in adjacent entries in Norfolk and Suffolk, and in Surrey “Odo de Dammartin...pro habenda custodia filii et terre Hugonis Pinc”[16]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1190/91], records "Odo de Danmartin" paying "xs, i militem" in Norfolk, Suffolk[17]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1194/95], records that "Odo de Danmartin" paid "xx s, i militem" in Norfolk, Su ffolk[18]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1196/97], records "Odo de Danmartin" paying "xx s" in Norfolk, Suffolk[19]. Lord of Strumshaw[20].

2. MANASSES de Dammartin (-[1178/79]). The Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, records that "Manasseri de Danmartin" held one knight’s fee in Suffolk [maybe referring to Mendlesham, although this is not specified] after his father died, during the reign of King Henry I, which he had “in tempore guerræ” (i.e. during the civil war) granted to "Galtero de Gornaco" and which was now (in 1166) held by “Willelmus filius suus”[21]. His parentage is confirmed by an undated charter, dated to [1156/78], for Bury St. Edmund’s under Abbot Hugh, witnessed by “Manasses de Dammartin et Albricus frater eius et Alanus”[22]. It is not clear from this extract whether “Alanus” was another brother of Manassès and Aubrey. The order of the witness names suggests that Manassès was older than his brother Aubrey. ["Aubri comes Dommartini" granted Norton, Suffolk to “William de Donomart” by undated charter, witnessed by Manassès de Dammartin, Bartholomew de Dammartin, Hamo de Dammartin and William his brother, Alan de Dammartin, Walter de Dammartin, Matthew de Dammartin, William the bastard, Gilbert de Dammartin and Roger his brother, and Philip de Dammartin[23]. Evans indicated that this document “could not be [dated] later than 1135”. However, this charter (as reported: the complete document has not been seen) is confused: the title “comes” accorded to the grantor is anachronistic and the witnesses are more consistent with a later date. Maybe the document is a later conflation of earlier charters.] The 1160/61 Pipe Roll names (in order) "Maness de Damartin, Wills de Dammartin, Albr de Dammartin" in Norfolk/Suffolk[24]. “Manassès de Dammartin, avec son épouse Galienne et ses fils Barthélemy, Eudes, Haimon, Guillaume et d’autres” donated property to Missenden by charter dated to before 1161[25].

The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Manasser de Danmartin i m" in Norfolk, Suffolk in [1167/68][29]. He granted land to his nephew Manassès in [1168][30]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Albericus de Danmartin xx s, Manasser de Danmartin xx s" in Norfolk, Suffolk in [1171/72][31]. The 1177/78 Pipe Roll names "Manesero de Dammartin" in Essex and Hertfordshire[32]. The 1176/77 Pipe Roll names "Maneserus de Dammartin" in Essex and Hertfordshire[33]. m GALIENA, daughter of ---. “Manassès de Dammartin, avec son épouse Galienne et ses fils Barthélemy, Eudes, Haimon, Guillaume et d’autres” donated property to Missenden by charter dated to before 1161[34]. Richard I King of England confirmed a donation to Stratford-at-Bow by “Galienæ et filii eius Bartholomei de Daumartin” by charter dated 9 Oct 1189[35]. Manassès & his wife had [six or more] children:

The name of William's wife is not known. William & his wife had one child:

i) GALIENA (-after 1228). She was heiress of her paternal grandfather's estates by 1197. King John confirmed that "Johannes Briewerr" held "terram q fuit Willi de Danmartin…cum Galiena filia eiusdem" by charter dated 28 Feb 1200[48]. King John confirmed "feod i militis in Meldesham…" held by "Johs Briwerr…cum filia et herede Willi de Danmartin" to "Willelmo Briw" by charter dated 22 Mar 1205[49]. The Testa de Nevill includes a writ of King John dated 1212 which records that King Henry I granted "Mendlesh" in Suffolk to "Odoni de Danmartin" and that it was then held by "Roberto…de Burgate…cum uxore sua heredi Willelmi de Danmartin"[50]. King John granted "feodum uni militis in Heldesham quod Johannes Briwer teneit cum predicta filia et herede Willelmi de Danmartin" to "Willelmo Briwerr" on the marriage of "Roberto de Burgat" and "Galienam filiam et heredem Willelmi Danmartin" dated 16 Mar 1215[51].

e) other children . “Manassès de Dammartin, avec son épouse Galienne et ses fils Barthélemy, Eudes, Haimon, Guillaume et d’autres” donated property to Missenden by charter dated to before 1161[53].

3. AUBRY [I] de Dammartin (-after [1171/72]). His parentage is confirmed by an undated charter which records that Simon Earl of Northampton and Huntingdon enfeoffed “Alberico comite de Danmartin” with “terram de Wrestlingewerde et de Berchamstede” which his father had granted to “Odoni de Danmartin fratre suo” [see above], maybe dated to before [1184][54]. Lord of Norton, Suffolk: King Henry I notified the bishop of Norwich and the barons of Suffolk that he had restored his father’s land "the manor of Norton" to "Aubrey de Dammartin" by charter dated to [1130/35][55]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Carta Albrici de Danmartin" in Suffolk in 1166, recording that during the reign of King Henry I he held one knight’s fee [maybe Norton, Suffolk, although this is not specified], which he now held from King Henry II, and that "tempore Henrici Regis" he had sub-enfeoffed it to “Willelmum de Danmartin fratrem meum”[56]. [This links with the undated charter under which "Aubri comes Dommartini" granted Norton, Suffolk to “William de Donomart”, witnessed by Manassès de Dammartin, Bartholomew de Dammartin, Hamo de Dammartin and William his brother, Alan de Dammartin, Walter de Dammartin, Matthew de Dammartin, William the bastard, Gilbert de Dammartin and Roger his brother, and Philip de Dammartin[57]. Evans indicated that this document “could not be [dated] later than 1135”. However, this charter (as reported: the complete document has not been seen) is confused: the title “comes” accorded to the grantor is anachronistic and the witnesses are more consistent with a later date.] Lord of Hamerton, Huntingdonshire: Simon Earl of Northampton and Huntingdon confirmed that “Henricus de Rio” had enfeoffed “Alberico de Dammartin” with “Hamertun” by charter dated to the early 1150s[58]. “Albricus de Domno Martino et Matilda uxor eius” donated “ecclesiam de Hamertune” to Colchester St. John by undated charter, witnessed by “Hubertus de Sancto Claro...”[59]. Evans dates this document to [1147/67][60]. The 1155/56 Pipe Roll records "Albici de Damartin" partially satisfying a debt[61]. “Manasses de Dammartin et Albricus frater eius et Alanus” witnessed the undated charter, dated to [1156/78], for Bury St. Edmund’s under Abbot Hugh[62]. The 1160/61 Pipe Roll names (in order) "Maness de Damartin, Wills de Dammartin, Albr de Dammartin" in Norfolk/Suffolk[63]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Albericus de Danmartin i m" in Yorkshire in [1161/62][64]. The 1167/68 Pipe Roll records "Manaser de Damartin, Albic de Damartin...Odo de Damartin" each returning for one knight’s fee in Norfolk and Suffolk[65]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Albericus de Danmartin xx s, Manasser de Danmartin xx s" in Norfolk, Suffolk in [1171/72][66]. [same person as...? AUBRY (-after 1129). Chambrier de France 1122 to 1129[67]. The English properties held by Aubry [II] Comte de Dammartin suggest a close relationship with the Dammartin families in England who are recorded holding the same lands. The father of Comte Aubry is named in the charter dated 1162 under which "Amalricus...Silvanectensis episcopus" confirmed the donation of “usum...totius forestæ Espioniæ de Bealci” made to Charlieu by “Albericus camerarius et filius eius Albericus comes de Dammartin”, with the consent of “Johanne scancione regis et uxore sua Helisendi et Petro filio suo”[68]. Given the English connection, the obvious suggestion is that Comte Aubry was the son of the English Aubry [I] de Dammartin. However, the chronology is not ideal for the latter to have been the chambrier who was named between 1122 and 1129. As indicated above, the English Aubry [I] was adult during the late years of King Henry I. However, as one of the younger sons of Eudes [I] de Dammartin, it is unclear whether he was old enough to have held the position of chambrier in 1122. same person as...? AUBRY [I] (-after 1162). One possibility to avoid the chronological difficulty highlighted above, is that there were two chambriers named Aubry. [Chambrier de France 1155/62]. This appointment is suggested by the charter dated 1162 quoted above. Delaite says that Aubry [I], father of Comte Aubry [II], was “suivant le père Anselme, chambrier de France en 1155 et 1160”[69]. In fact, Père Anselme lists “Alberic I...comte de Dammartin, chambrier de France”, referring only to the 1162 charter and adding that he was still alive in 1181, but cites no references dated 1155 or 1160[70]. Luchaire, in his review of the royal officers, comments that “cet Aubri n’apparaît, à notre connaissance, sur aucune charte de Louis VII”[71]. He traces the reference to Aubry as chambrier to Ducange who, Luchaire suggests, misinterpreted the 1162 charter[72]. Luchaire names Mathieu [II] Comte de Beaumont as chambrier from 1151 to 1174. If Luchaire is correct, the reference to “camerarius” in the 1162 charter still needs explaining. If Comte Aubry [II] was the son of the English Aubry [I] de Dammartin, the chronology of his life suggests that the latter was too young to have been the chambrier who was named between 1122 and 1129 (see above). One possibility therefore is that the appointment oscillated between Comte Mathieu [II] and Aubry [I] during the 1150s/1160s, without leaving a trace in the surviving charters.] There is considerable uncertainty about the marriage(s) of Aubry [I]. [m firstly ---. There is no proof of this supposed first marriage. However, if the suggestion is correct that the English Aubry [I] de Dammartin was the father of Aubry [II] Comte de Dammartin, the chronology suggests that the latter would have been the son of an earlier unrecorded marriage. If that is correct, the possibility is discussed in the document PARIS REGION NOBILITY that this earlier wife was heiress of the county of Dammartin in order to explain the transmission of the county to Aubry [II].] [m [secondly] MATILDA, daughter of [HAMON de St. Clair & his first wife Gunnor Bigod] (-after 1147). “Albricus de Domno Martino et Matilda uxor eius” donated “ecclesiam de Hamertune” to Colchester St. John by undated charter, witnessed by “Hubertus de Sancto Claro...”[73]. Evans dates this document to [1147/67][74]. If that is correct, it suggests that Matilda was the wife of Aubry, son of Eudes [I]. The common link with Hamerton also indicates that this is right. The witness also donated the same church to Colchester St. John, which suggests a joint interest with the donors. Maybe Matilda was the sister of Hubert de Saint-Clair.] [- COMTES de DAMMARTIN.]

4. WILLIAM de Dammartin (-after 1166). “William de Dan Martin” donated “all my land of Certeham and...land in Chepstede” to Lewes St. Pancras by undated charter, witnessed by “...Walter de Danmartin...”[75]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Carta Albrici de Danmartin" in Suffolk in 1166, recording that during the reign of King Henry I he held one knight’s fee [maybe Norton, Suffolk, although this is not specified], which he now held from King Henry II, and that "tempore Henrici Regis" he had sub-enfeoffed it to “Willelmum de Danmartin fratrem meum”[76]. [This links with the undated charter under which "Aubri comes Dommartini" granted Norton, Suffolk to “William de Donomart”, witnessed by Manassès de Dammartin, Bartholomew de Dammartin, Hamo de Dammartin and William his brother, Alan de Dammartin, Walter de Dammartin, Matthew de Dammartin, William the bastard, Gilbert de Dammartin and Roger his brother, and Philip de Dammartin[77]. Evans indicated that this document “could not be [dated] later than 1135”. However, this charter (as reported: the complete document has not been seen) is confused: the title “comes” accorded to the grantor is anachronistic and the witnesses are more consistent with a later date.] “Gilbert Earl of Clare” donated “the church of Blachinglea” to Lewes St. Pancras, in return for “quit-claim the land of Gretenesse which my father gave them”, by undated charter (dated to [1138/53]), witnessed by “...William de Dan martin and Stephen his brother...”[78]. “Etienne de Dammartin...avec Guillaume son frère” subscribed a charter of Roger de Clare for Stoke-by-Clare priory dated to [1152/66][79]. The 1160/61 Pipe Roll names (in order) "Maness de Damartin, Wills de Dammartin, Albr de Dammartin" in Norfolk/Suffolk[80]. Kinsman of Roger de Clare, from whom he held eleven and a half fees in 1166[81]. m ---. The name of William’s wife is not known. The connection with Surrey suggests that she may have been AGNES, daughter of --- (-after [1169/70]), named in the 1169/70 Pipe Roll which records "De plac’ Alan de Nevill…Hocha tra Agnetis de Dammartin" owing in Surrey[82], who was presumably a widow at the time. William & his wife had one child:

a) EUDES [IV] de Dammartin (-after 1212). “Odo dan Martin son of William de dan Martin” donated “land in Chartehamme...of the fee of Tenrugge and...in Chepstude and [one] third...of the tithe...of Michelam” to Lewes by undated charter[83]. King John granted “warennam per terras suas de Tenregge, Welcnested, Hereqoldesle, Chepstede, Warlingeham, Mikeleham, Effingeham, Occham, Suthewic, Sumerd, Trumeshal, Nortun” to “Odoni de Daumartin” by charter dated 1 Dec 1202[84]. The Testa de Nevill records that "Odo de Danmartin" held "Strumeshag" in "Blafeld" in Norfolk & Suffolk 1212[85], which suggests that Eudes [IV] was the son of Eudes [III]. m firstly (before 1212) --- de Lucy, daughter of REYNOLD de Lucy & his wife Amabel ---. Her marriage and family origin are confirmed by the Testa de Nevill which includes a writ of King John dated 1212 which records that "Richard de Lucy" gave "Wolenested…medietatem…hundredum de Tenhrigg" in Surrey to "Odoni de Dammartin cum sorore sua in maritagium"[86]. m secondly as her first husband, MARGARET de Briwere, daughter of WILLIAM de Briwere & his wife Beatrice --- (-after 1237). She married secondly William de la Ferté, and thirdly (divorced) Geoffrey [IV] de Say. Bracton records a claim, dated 1231, by "Rogero de Clare et Alicie uxori eius" against "Margeria de Feritate", accusing her of selling assets "in dotem de hereditate ipsius Alicie in Essingham ad exhereditacionem ipsius Alicie", the defendant stating that changes were made by "Galfridus de Say viri sui" before their divorce, and that the damage was caused by "Odon Danmartin primi viri sui"[87]. Bracton records a claim, dated 1233, by "Hugo Wack" against "Margeriam de Feritate et Willelmum de Percy" relating to an agreement "cum Alicia de Moun et predicto Hugone" concerning share of land which was held by "Willelmi Briwere"[88]. Eudes [IV] & his first wife had one child:

i) ALICE de Dammartin (-after 1242). Her first marriage is confirmed by a charter dated 1225 which records that William Earl Warenne received the manor of Harrowsley to hold as a quarter of a knight’s fee of “William Haunsard who held it of John de Wauton and Alice his wife in right of Alice heiress of Odo de Dammartin of the Honour of Clare”[89]. Bracton records a claim, dated 1231, by "Rogero de Clare et Alicie uxori eius" against [Alice’s stepmother] "Margeria de Feritate", accusing her of selling assets "in dotem de hereditate ipsius Alicie in Essingham ad exhereditacionem ipsius Alicie", the defendant stating that changes were made by "Galfridus de Say viri sui" before their divorce, and that the damage was caused by "Odon Danmartin primi viri sui"[90]. The Testa de Nevill records "Alicia filia Odonis de Danmartin…maritata Rogero de Clara" holding property in "Hundredum de Tenrigg...medietatem de Walknested..." in Surrey in 1232[91].

Stephen & his wife had two children:

a) GILBERT de Dammartin . Gilbert de Dammartin “après la mort de son père Etienne, sénéchal du comte Roger de Clare, mais du vivant de ce dernier †1173)” donated numerous properties to Stoke-by-Clare on becoming a monk there[98].
b) BASILIA de Dammartin (-after 6 Nov 1190). A charter dated 6 Nov 1190 records an agreement between “Henricum de Percy et Willelmum Anguillum et Sarram de Bendevill uxorem eius, Hugonis de Bolton et Basiliam uxorem suam filiam Stephani de Dammartin” concerning “terra in Cissacch” which was the dower of “predicta Sarra de Bendeuill...ex dono Stephani de Dammartin viri sui”[99]. m HUGH de Bolton, son of ---.

6. [ALAN . An undated charter, dated to [1156/78], for Bury St. Edmund’s under Abbot Hugh, was witnessed by “Manasses de Dammartin et Albricus frater eius et Alanus”[100]. It is not clear from this extract whether “Alanus” was another brother of Manassès and Aubrey. same person as...? ALAN de Dammartin . ["Aubri comes Dommartini" granted Norton, Suffolk to “William de Donomart” by undated charter, witnessed by Manassès de Dammartin, Bartholomew de Dammartin, Hamo de Dammartin and William his brother, Alan de Dammartin, Walter de Dammartin, Matthew de Dammartin, William the bastard, Gilbert de Dammartin and Roger his brother, and Philip de Dammartin[101]. Evans indicated that this document “could not be [dated] later than 1135”. However, this charter (as reported: the complete document has not been seen) is confused: the title “comes” accorded to the grantor is anachronistic and the witnesses are more consistent with a later date. Maybe the document is a later conflation of earlier charters.]

7. [daughter . m ODO de Compeng, son of ---.] Odo’s different name suggests that it was his wife who was the sibling of Manassès de Dammartin. One child:

a) MANASSES . Son of Odo de Compeng, he was granted land in [1168] by his uncle Manassès de Dammartin[102].
