Hugh de Lacy was the second son of Walter de Lacy, and was born c.1073. He married Adeline [surname and parentage not known] but died in 1121 [?1115] without issue, and his two sisters, Emma and Ermeline [Walter de Lacy’s daughters] therefore became the heiresses to Ewyas Lacy. Ermeline had no children, and so the inheritance passed to Hugh’s nephew Gilbert, the son of his sister Emma, born c.1082 in Lacy, Herefordshire. Emma had married Hugh de Talbot about 1095, but their son Gilbert chose to take the de Lacy surname and inherited the Baronetcy and properties when Hugh died in 1121. Gilbert de Lacy thus became the 4th Baron de Lacy

"The tiny church of St Mary at Kempley, Gloucestershire, was probably built in the early 12th century by Baron Hugh de Lacy, owner of Kempley manor."

"Built around 1130, this tiny church is an extraordinary survival from the Norman world. Its exceptional decoration is owed to the patronage of one of the wealthiest early Norman families in England, the de Lacys.
Walter de Lacy had fought with William the Conqueror at the battle of Hastings and owned large stretches of the Welsh marches. Kempley was in de Lacy hands in the late 11th and 12th centuries. After Walter died in 1085 his body was taken from Hereford to Gloucester for burial, and may have rested briefly at Kempley. His son Hugh may have built St Mary’s to commemorate this."
