  • Notes 
    • “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013): ERRORS
      “PATRICK (or PATRICE) DE CHAOURCES (or DE SOURCHES), seigneur of Sourches (in Saint-Symphorien) in Maine, and, in right of his wife, of Toddington, Bedfordshire.
      He married MAUD DE HESDIN (or HESDING), daughter of Ernulf (or Arnulph) de Hesdin, of Keevil, Wiltshire, Kempsford, Gloucestershire, etc., by his wife, Emmeline.
      They had two sons,
      1. Hugues and
      2. Patrick (or Patrice),
      and two daughters,
      3. Sibyl and
      4. Cecily (wife of Henry d'Aubeney).
      He made grants in certain parts of the manor of Toddington, Bedfordshire which eventually devolved on Dunstable Priory. About 1081-90 he gave various rights at Bernay to Geoffrey de Brolon. He went on Crusade in 1095. Sometime after 1100 he was granted the manor of Great Wishford, Wiltshire by King Henry I. Sometime in the period, 1100-22, he and his wife, Maud, gave the Abbey of St. Pierre de la Couture, Le Mans the church of Toddington, Bedforshire, for the soul of Ernulf de Hodine [Ernulf de Hesdin]. Sometime before 1127 he granted the manor of Great Wishford, and possibly part of the manor of Berwick St. James, Wiltshire to his son-in-law, Henry Daubeney. At an unknown date, he and his wife, Maud, granted the same Abbey an exchange for the land which its monks previously held in the time of three kings, together with a virgate of Eduine's land to be free and quit. At an unknown date he granted la Couture his rights in the forest of Charnie.
      Patrick and his wife, Maud, were living in 1133.
      ...
      Money Hist. of Newbury (1887): 72-79 (Chaworth ped.). Genealogist n.s. 5 (1889): 209-212 ("According to the pedigree thus admitted in court, it is clear that Sibilla was daughter to the original Patrick de Chaworth, who had acquired, through marrying Matilda, one of Arnulph de Hesding's daiughters, a share of Arnulph's Domesday manors, some of which were afterwards again given as a marriage portion with Sibilla to Walter of Salisbury ... The difficulties as to the dates of the birth of Sibilla's children, supposed to be involved, have no real existence. All that is known as to her son, Earl Patrick, is that he was of age in 1142, and born, therefore, at least as early as 1121, whilst his sister, Hawise, is said to have become the second wife of Rotrou (III), Count of Perche, in 1126, when she may have been, perhaps, sixteen. It seems to follow, from a passage in the Liber Niger (p. 171), that Patrick and Matilda de Chaworth had another daughter who married into the family of De Albini, and had a son named Nigel, stated to hold, in 1165, a manor, worth £20 a year, of their fief 'de matrimonio matris suæ.' The hypothesis that Sibilla herself was Nigel's mother, by a second husband, is inadmissible, since Walter of Salisbury lived until 1147 ... Patrick de Cadurcis (I) had a son of the same name, who had apparently succeeded him prior to 1130, when he appears, from the Cartulary of St. Peter's, Gloucester, to have added the mill of Horcote, near Kempsford, to the donations which his grandfather, Arnulph de Hesding, had made to that Abbey.").
      Round Cal. Docs. Preserved in France 1 (1899): 364. Pubs. of Bedfordshire Hist. Rec. Soc. 7 (1923): 165-167; 10 (1926): 304-306 ("The family of which the name was anglicized as Chaworth, but latinised as de Cadurcis Cadulcis Chaurciis Chaurces Chaorciis etc., appearing also as Chauarz Chauard Cahurt etc., drew its style from Chaorches, the modern Smirches, near le Mans in the old province of Maine. Something of the early history of this very difficult family has already been sketched, but the line can be extended further backwards. Its founder appears to be Hugh, younger son of Ernauld lord of Marigne in southern Maine, who built a castle at Sourches; he occurs in the Cartulary of Marrnoutier about 1046/50 as Hugues de Sourches le Marigné. He gave St. Mars de Ballon (vicum sancti Medardi juxta castrum Baledoni) to the Abbey of la Couture. His son Patric became a monk of la Couture, and under the style Patricus de Cadurcis filius flugonis de Matrinniaco [Marigné] gave Lavaré to the Abbey about 1050, his sons Hugh and Geoffrey consenting. His successor, probably his grandson and the son of Hugh (who attests 1050 and 1085), is the Patric I de Chaworth who heads the family in the accounts already published by this Society. Having accidentally killed a lad, he made atonement to the father by giving the church of Bemay, and land at Bemay and Sourches to la Couture about 1080/90; when making ready for the First Crusade in 1095, he entrusted his son Hugh to the same Abbey. His wife Matilda was probably a daughter of Ernulf de Hesdin, the Domesday tenant of Toddington; she and her husband granted the church there (Dedingtona Dodingetona) to la Couture, and the grant was confirmed by King Henry I, in a charter of the probable date 1105/7. To St. Peter Gloucester he gave a hide at Ampney before 1104, confirmed by Henry I probably in 1105; in 1115/30 he further gave to the monastery the church of Kempsford with lands and mills there and elsewhere in co. Gloucs.; their last gift is dated 1133. He appears in the Pipe Roll of 1130 as pardoned Danegeld in Oxon. Wilts. Glos. Beds. and Berks.; and it is implied that he was alive in 1135."). ...

      Children of Patrick de Chaources, by Maud de Hesdin:
      i. PATRICK DE CHAOURCES (or DE SOURCHES) [see next].
      ii. SIBYL DE CHAOURCES, married WALTER OF SALISBURY (also known as WALTER FITZ II EDWARD), of Chitterne, Wiltshire [see LONGESPÉE 2].”

      ----------------------------------------------------------------

      PATRICK [III] [renumbered [I] for the purposes of the present document] de Chaources [Chaworth], son of [PATRICE [II] de Chaources & his wife ---] (-after 1133). ...
      m (before 14 Sep 1100) MATHILDE, daughter and co-heiress of ARNOUL de Hesdin & his wife Emmeline [de Ballon] (-after 1133). The Historia sancti Petri Gloucestriæ records that "Ernulphus de Hesdyng" donated "ecclesiam de Heythrop, Lynkbolt…et ecclesiam de Kynemerforde", confirmed by "Patricius de Cadurcis et Matilda uxor eius", and by "hæredum suorum" in "quatuor cartæ", in the fourth of which "Paganus filius Patricii" donated "decimam domini sui de Kynermerforde", that "Johannes episcopus" confirmed and donated "quatuor marcas annuas in ecclesia de Kynermerforde", with the confirmation of "Rex Henricus senior…tempore Serlonis abbatis" [abbot from 1072 to 1104][1295]. The date of her marriage is set by the charter dated 14 Sep 1100 under which her husband donated property for the soul of his father-in-law, although the document does not specify the relationships between the parties. “Patricius de Cadurcis et uxor mea Mathildis” donated “ecclesiam de Dedintona” to Saint-Pierre de la Couture, for the soul of “Ernulfi de Hodine”, by charter dated to [1120][1296]. "Patricius de Cadurcis et Matilda uxor mea" donated "unam virgatam in Kynemereforde" to Gloucester St Peter by charter dated 1133[1297]. Patrick [I] & his wife had [four] children:

      1. [PAGAN de Chaources (-after [1100]). ... it is possible that Pagan was the same person as Patrick [II], before he had been baptised.

      2. PATRICK [II] de Chaources (-before [1142]). ...
      m GUIBURGE [de Mondoubleau], daughter of --- & his wife [--- de Mondoubleau] (-after 1151). ... Patrick [II] & his wife had two children.

      3. SIBYL de Chaources (----, bur Bradenstoke Priory[1320]). ...
      m ([1115/20]) WALTER de Salisbury, son of EDWARD de Salisbury & his wife --- (-1147).

      4. [CECILIA . ...
      m HENRY de Albini, son of NELE [Nigel] de Albini of Cainhoe & his wife Amice de Ferrers (-after 1130).]
