Sibyl de Vivonne

http://www.histoirepassion.eu/?Three-generations-of-the-Anglo-Poito...

When Guy de Rochechouart died in 1313 he had remarried. Other than this indication that Sybil de Vivonne was still alive in 1301, no date for her death is known.

Richardson "Royal Ancestry" IV under MALET says that Sibyl de Vivonne "married after 9 August 1269 (by contract dated 28 April 1264) (as his 1st wife) Guy de Rocheouart, Knt., seigneur of Tonnay Charente, Cereigny, La Pérusse, and Salagnac". (This was the brother of her step father.)

Richardson also reports that they "had two sons, Guyard [seigneur of Tonnay-Charente] and Guillaume [seigneur of Tonnay-Charente]". It appears neither of these sons had heirs, and the lordship went to cousins.[1]

GUILLAUME de Vivonne "de Fortibus", son of HUGUES de Vivonne & his wife Mabel Malet (-22 May 1259). m ([30 Jul 1248/26 May 1250]) as her second husband, MATILDA de Ferrers, widow of SIMON de Kyme of Kyme, daughter of WILLIAM de Ferrers Earl of Derby & his first wife Sibyl Marshal (-11 Mar 1299).

Guillaume & his wife had four children:

2. SIBYLLE de Vivonne ([1252/53]-after 2 Jul 1306). The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "Johanna de Vynon, Cecilia de Bellocampo, Sibilla nupta Almarico de Archiaks in Piganra" as children of "Matilda de Kyme" third daughter of "Willielmo de Ferrers comiti Derbiæ" and his wife[544], although the other sources quoted below show that these children were born from Matilda’s second marriage not her third, and that the name of the second daughter’s husband is recorded incorrectly. An undated writ, after the death of "William de Fortibus", names "his four daughters, Joan aged 8 years and 5 weeks, viz on Wednesday the feast of St ---, Sibyl aged 6, Mabel aged 4, and --- aged 2, are his heirs" and lists manors in Dorset[545]. Henry III King of England granted, 2 Aug 1259, "the wardship of the lands late of William de Fortibus" to "Ingram de Percy, Peter de Chauuvent and Imbert de Muntferaunt" and the marriages of the deceased’s four daughters, to Imbert the marriage of "one of the remaining two as he shall choose", and to "Laurence son of Nicholas de Sancto Mauro…the marriage of the remaining one"[546]. "Messire Simon de Rochechouart, doyen de Saint-Antregil du château de Bourges" notified the marriage contract of "Aimery vicomte de Rochechouart son neveu" and "noble dame Matilde veuve de noble homme messire Guillaume le Fort" and the agreement for "des deux fils du dit vicomte" to marry "les deux filles de ladite dame veuve", with "Aimery fils aîné" marrying "la fille aînée...[avec] son manoir de Carlion" and "Guy autre fils du dit vicomte" marrying "la seconde fille [avec] la terre de Mortemar", by charter dated "du lundi après la Saint-Georges 1264", which also records that "les dits deux fils du vicomte" would inherit two thirds of their father’s inheritance, the remaining one third to be divided between "ses autres filles et fils"[547]. Her parentage is confirmed by the Somersetshire Pleas for 15 Jul 1269 which include a record that "Aunsell de Gurnay and his wife Sibyl" warranted "Emery de Roche Chaward, son of Emery de Roche Chaward, and Joan his wife, Sibyl, Mabel and Cecily, the daughters and heirs of William de Fortibus" relating to land in "Corfton"[548]. Her marriage is confimed by a petition to the king dated to [1281] by "Peter de St Hillare" relating to land at Corston, Somerset which names "Aunsel de Gunney, Sibyl wife of Aunsel de Gunney, Reginald father of Aunsel de Gunney, Joan wife of Reginald de Gunney, Guy de Rochicheward, Sibyl wife of Guy de Rochicheward, John de Beauchamp, Cecily wife of John de Beauchamp, Fulk de Archiake, Mabel wife of Fulk de Archiake, William de Forz"[549].

m (contract 28 Apr 1264) GUY de Rochechouart, son of AIMERY [XI] Vicomte de Rochechouart & his first wife Jeanne de Tonnay-Charente (-after Jan 1304).
