Reginald (Rainald) de Dunstanville formerly Dunstanville Born about 1054 in Normandy, France Son of Hugh Hugo de Dunstanville and Unknown de Dunstanville Brother of Walter de Dunstanville Husband of Adeliza de L'isle de Dunstanville — married Descendants- Father of Alan de Dunstanville, Gundreda de Dunstanville and Hugo de Dunstanville Died about 1140 [location unknown] Biography Loyd concluded that this family came from Dénestanville on the lower Seine area, arr. Dieppe, cant. Longueville (modern postcode 76590): Walter de Dunstanville occurs on the Pipe Rolls from 1156 onwards. Between 1156 and 1164 Walter de Donestanvilla gave the church of Vaudreville to Longueville priory. [P. Le Cacheux, Chartes du Prieuré de Longueville, no. 12.] An account of his family is given by Farrer. [Honors and Knights' Fees, iii, 37 et seq.; and cf. Ancestor, xi, 56.] Vaudreville, now amalgamated with Longueville, and Dénestanville are contiguous. In 1861 there was a large motte on the banks of the Seine, then in course of demolition. [Cochet, Rép. arch. . . . de la Seine-Inf., col. 50.] Before Reginald there were two brothers, named Walter and Robert. The connection to Reginald seems to be uncertain. Farrer suggests that Reginald is Robert's son. Apparently, there is an idea that there may have been two Reginalds. As a result of the different approaches, Sanders wrote that Reginald d. before 1110, while Keats-Rohan believed that he died after 1129/30, "when he and his sister Gundreda occur on the Pipe Roll". Farrer seems to agree. All sources agree that Reginald had two sons, Robert (d.s.p. 1167) and Alan, who was father of the next in line after the death of his uncle Robert, Walter. Farrer notes that another(?) Alan was in one record from around 1121 described as a "nepos" of Robert, which could mean grandson. |
