    Beatrix de Vesci of Alnwick Castle, was an 11th-century medieval noble lady of the house de Vesci. She was the daughter and sole heir of Baron Ivo de Vesci and his wife, Alda. One of the richest heiresses of her time, Beatrix was the first wife of Eustace Fitz John, also known as Eustacius fitz John de Burgo, Constable of Chestershire and Knaresborough.

    According to Dugdale, Beatrix had two sons, William and Geoffrey. However, it often is said that she died during the birth of her first and only son, William de Vesci. William took his mother’s surname and would become the ancestor of the de Vesci baronial house. He served as Sheriff of Northumberland from 1157 to 1170, and Sheriff of Lancashire from 1166 to 1170.

    Upon the death of Eustace Fitz John, his lands passed to his son William by consent of King Henry II. Beatrix's grandson Eustace de Vesci was one of the Surety Barons of Magna Carta.

    Notes:

    "Tyson or Tisson, a baronial name.The Tessons were commonly said to have possessed a third of Normandy. The name of this family was originally Ticio, and it is stated to have been seated in the vicinity of Angouleme (whence its Gothic origins may be inferred), and to have been distinguished in war against the Saracens, c 725 (Des Bois, Art. Achard).The Tessons were afterwards seated in Anjou (Vaultrier, Apud Mem. Soc. Ant. Norm. x 78).

    Radulphus Taxo, of Angers, in 1028 witnessed a charter regarding the Abbey of Coulombs (Gall. Christ. viii.297. Instr.). Ralph T. led 120 knights of his barony to the aid of Duke William at the Battle of Val des Dunes, 1047, and was created Viscount of the Cotentin. He founded the Abbey of Fontenay, near Caen, and from him descended the powerful family of Tesson in Normandy. Gilbert Tyson or Tesson, his brother, obtained the barony of Alnwick from Edward the Confessor, and fell at the Battle of Hastings. William, his son, had a daughter who married Ivo de Vesci. Gilbert Tyson, another son, held great estates in York, Lincoln and Notts 1086 (Domesd.). Adam Tyson granted lands in Notts to the Hospitallers, t. Rich I (Mon. ii) and to Thurgarten Priory (Ib.93). In the 13th century Warin Fitzgerold held lands late the fee of Ralph Tesun (Testa 77). This family appears also to have been the origin of those of PERCY, MARMION and BYRON." excerpted from The Norman people and their existing descendants in the British dominions and the United States of America (author unknown), Henry S. King & Co, 1874, p. 427. Reprinted online (Google Books and archives.com).

    CONFLICTING INFORMATION ABOUT GILBERT TYSON--THERE MAY HAVE BEEN TWO OF THEM.

    Provided by an unknown person without documentation | Gilbet Tyson fought at the Battle of Hastings on the Anglo-Saxon [English] side and died.
    Contrasted with this undocumented info provided 23 December 2014 by Brent Ruesch | Gilbert Tyson (de Tyson) was William the Conqueror's [French] standard bearer at the Battle of Hastings, and was the first Norman owner of Alnwick. It is probable that the Tysons were deprived of their lands owing to their participation in Mowbrays rebellion against William in 1095, when the next year it was transferred to Eves De Vescy.
