“WALTER DE CANTELOWE, of Brimpton, Berkshire, Adber and Leigh, Dorset, Fontley and Oakley, Hampshire, and Barwick, Camel, and Chilton Cantelo, Somerset. He held two knights' fees of William de Roumare in 1166. He also held lands of William de Roumare in Normandy. He married AMICE ___. They had three sons, William, Knt., Robert Barat (or Cantelowe), and Roger Orget, and three daughters, Nichole, Sibyl, and probably Isabel. His name occurs on a role of the Norman Exchequer dated 1184. He was a member of the entourage of John, Count of Mortain [afterwards King John]. In 1195 William de Saint Mary accounted £4 for the farm at Barwick, Somerset of Walter de Cantelowe for half a year. In 1201 he sued Robert de Cantelowe for the vill of Chilton Cantelo, Somerset as being his right and inheritance, whereof his father, William de Cantelowe, was seised during the reign of King Henry II [1154-89]. In 1201-2 he conveyed all his right in the vill of Chilton Cantelo, Somerset to Robert de Cantelowe; for this concession Robert gave Walter 28 marks of money, and thereupon Walter did homage to Robert in the Court. In 1204-5 the king issued a writ to the Sheriff of Norfolk to deliver to Walter certain lands in that county which the king had previously committed to the custody of William his son. At an unknown date, he granted in pure and perpetual alms for the salvation of his soul and those of his wife, Amice, his son and heir, William de Cantelowe, his other children, and his ancestors to Christchurch Priory 1/2 mark a year from his rent at Leigh, Dorset, viz. 20d. to be paid each quarter by Sampson de Leigh and his heirs. WALTER DE CANTELOWE was living in 1205, when the king gave him a dolium of wine.

vi. ISABEL DE CANTELOWE (probable daughter).* She married (as his 2nd wife) STEPHEN DEVEREUX, of Lyonshall and Frome Herbert, Herefordshire, Wilby, Norfolk, etc., son and heir of John Devereux, of Lyonshall, Herefordshire. They had one son, William. In 1227 he and his heirs were granted a weekly market and yearly fair at Lyonshall, Herefordshire. STEPHEN DEVEREUX died in 1228. His widow, Isabel, married (2nd) RALPH DE PEMBRIDGE (or PENEBRUG). In her second widowhood, she gave to the Hospital of St Ethelbert for the souls of herself and her two husbands "unam ladum bladi" at the Feast of St. Andrew during her life to be received at her house of Frome. She was living in 1245. Coll. Top. et Gen. 2 (1835): 250 (charter of Isabel de Cantelowe dated pre-1244).

(*Isabel de Cantelowe's maiden name is attested by her own charter [see Coll. Top. et Gen. 2 (1835): 2501. That Isabel was the sister of Sir William de Cantelowe (died 1239) seems virtually certain. Her son, William Devereux, is known to have had a daughter who married Sir John de Pycheford. Sir John de Pycheford's wife was styled "kinswoman" of Sir George de Cantelowe [died 1273] [see Cal. /P21,1 2 (1906): 16-211. Sir George de Cantelowe was the great-grandson and heir male of Sir William de Cantelowe (died 1239). For further particulars, see Eyton Antiqs. of Shropshire 6 (1858): 273.)”

Isabel married Devereux, Lord Stephen I in 1208 in Kington, Herefordshire, England. Stephen (son of Devereux, Walter I and de Longchamp, Cecilia) was born in 1195 in Kington, Herefordshire, England; died on 17 Mar 1228 in Kington, Herefordshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
