Notes

Note that Richard's parentage is apparently still uncertain. Ravilious proposes that Richard was a brother and heir to Jordan, not son.

Complete Peerage states:

   Jordan was s. and h. of Richard Foliot, by one of the five sisters and coheirs of the said Robert Bardolf, of Great Carlton, co. Lincoln, and Hoo, Kent, br. and h. of Hugh Bardolf, and 2nd s. and eventually h. of Hugh Bardolf, by Isabel his wife (Cartulary of Barling:—Cotton MSS., Faust., B 1, PE.I69 or I70, v, and 174.or 175, v). The exact descent of the last named Richard Foliot from the early lords of Norton who occur in the Cartulary of Pontefract Priory is uncertain." 

More recently, Crook states:

   The Foliots of Norton and Fenwick can be traced back to the reign of Henry I, and a rough pedigree has been constructed. 

He cites "Gilbert Foliot and his Letters, ed. S. Morey and C.N.L. Brooke (Cambridge, 1965), p. 263; Early Yorkshire Charters, III, ed. W. Farrer (1916), pp. 214–21." The first source uses dotted lines to show uncertainty. It cites the second (earlier) source, Farrer.

As recently as 2007, John P. Ravilious has given a summary about this Richard Foliot as follows:

   husband of Beatrice Bardolf 

   his son succeeded to the inheritance of Fenwick, co. Yorks. before 25 Jul 1206[9] 

   re: his wife Beatrice Bardolf:

one of five sisters and coheiresses of Robert Bardolf[10] [her inheritance including Grimston, co. Notts, and one-fifth of a knight's fee in Hoo, Kent]

       identified as Beatrice in 'Ancestral Roots', per Todd Farmerie (Jan 25 1997)[11] 

       died before 1 July 1225, on which date her son Jordan Foliot was recorded as having done homage for his inheritance of his uncle, Robert Bardolf[12],[13]
