  WALTER FitzEdward de Salisbury (-1147, bur Bradenstoke Priory[1425]). The Book of Lacock names “Walterum de Saresburia” as son of “Edwardum…vicecomitem Wiltes”[1426]. Sheriff of Wiltshire during the reign of King Henry I[1427]. Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record that "Walterus de Sireburne" used to hold one knight’s fee from the abbot of Glastonbury in Somerset "tempore Regis Henrici" (presumably indicating King Henry I) and that "comes Patricius" now held the same[1428]. m ([1115/20]) SIBYL de Chaources, daughter of PATRICK [I] de Chaources [Chaworth] & his wife Mathilde de Hesdin (----, bur Bradenstoke Priory[1429]). ... Walter & his wife had five children: a) WILLIAM ([before 1120]-after 1 Jul 1143, bur Bradenstoke Priory[1432]). ... b) PATRICK (-killed in battle Poitou [7 Apr] 1168, bur Poitiers, Abbaye de Saint-Hilaire). ... m firstly MATILDA, daughter of ---. “Comes Patricius Sarum” donated property to Bradenstoke priory, constructed by “pater meus Walterus de Saresbiria”, for the soul of “Matildis comitissæ uxoris meæ”, by undated charter[1442]. m secondly as her second husband, ELA de Ponthieu, widow of WILLIAM [III] de Warenne Earl of Surrey, daughter of GUILLAUME [I] "Talvas" Comte d'Alençon & his wife Hélie de Bourgogne [Capet] (-10 Dec 1174). c) HAWISE ([1120]-13 Jan before 1152). ... m firstly (after [1120]) as his third wife, ROTROU Comte du Perche, son of GEOFFROY I Comte de Mortagne, Comte du Perche & his wife Béatrix de Roucy (-killed in battle Rouen [20 Jan/23 Apr] 1144). m secondly ([1144/45]) as his first wife, ROBERT de France, son of LOUIS VI King of France & his wife Adélaïde de Maurienne [Savoie] ([1124/26]-Braine 11 Oct 1188, bur Braine, église abbatiale de Saint-Ived). d) WALTER . ... Canon at Bradenstoke. e) SIBYL . ... m (before [1144]) as his second wife, JOHN FitzGilbert, the Marshal, son of GILBERT the Marshal & his wife --- (-before Nov 1165). http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/ENGLISH%20NOBILITY%20MEDIEVAL1.htm#WilliamSalisburydied1147 -------------------------------------------------------------- About 1115 King Henry I gave, or more probably confirmed, to the church of Salisbury two hides of land at Warminster, Wiltshire which Walter, son of Edward of Salisbury, had held. In 1130 he was acquitted of £4 of Danegeld in Dorset and £7 in Wiltshire. He was present at the Council of Northampton in 1131. He was with King Stephen at Westminster at Easter 1136, and at Salisbury at Christmas 1139. He founded Bradenstoke Priory in the parish of Lyneham, Wiltshire in 1139. He endowed the priory with the vill of Bradenstoke and the church to Lyneham, Wiltshire; his charter was confirmed by his wife, Sibyl, and his sons, William and Patrick. In 1142 he granted the manor of Tarlton (in Rodmarton), Gloucestershire to the Cathedral church of Salisbury, in recompense for the harm done to the church by his son, William. His wife, Sibyl, predeceased him. WALTER OF SALISBURY took the habit of a canon at Bradenstoke Priory. He died in 1147. He and his wife, Sibyl, were buried at Bradenstoke Priory in the same grave.
