GEOFFREY de Mandeville (-after 1104). “…Josfridi de Magna Villa…” witnessed the charter dated to [1070/75] under which William I King of England donated Plumstead to St Augustine’s, Canterbury. “Godefridus de Magnavilla” founded Hurley Priory, Berkshire,for the souls of “uxoris meæ Lecelinæ…Athalaisæ primæ uxoris meæ, matris filiorum meorum iam defunctæ,” by undated charter witnessed by “Lecelina domina uxor mea, Willielmus de Magnavilla….” "…Goffridum de Mannavilla…" witnessed the charter under which William I King of England confirmed the rights of Ely abbey. Domesday Book records the land of “Geoffrey de Mandeville” in Brixton, Wallington and Woking Hundreds in Surrey, in Berkshire including in Kintbury Hundred and Lambourn Hundred, properties in Middlesex and Hertfordshire. He held the manors of Great Waltham, Saffron Walden, High Easter and Pleshey, in Essex, as well as other manors in other counties in Domesday Book[668]. A charter dated 1104 records donations to the abbey of Saint-Sauveur by "Nigellus presbyter de Geroville et Rogerus frater eius et Briennius filius ipsius," witnessed by "Rogero de Magnevilla et Gaufrido fratre suo…." m firstly ADELAIS, daughter of --- (-before [1085]). “Godefridus de Magnavilla” founded Hurley Priory, Berkshire, for the souls of “…Athalaisæ primæ uxoris meæ, matris filiorum meorum iam defunctæ,” by undated charter. m secondly (before [1085]) LESCELINE, daughter of ---. “Godefridus de Magnavilla” founded Hurley Priory, Berkshire, for the souls of “uxoris meæ Lecelinæ…”, by undated charter witnessed by “Lecelina domina uxor mea, Willielmus de Magnavilla….” Geoffrey & his first wife had four children: a) WILLIAM de Mandeville (-[1116]). “Godefridus de Magnavilla” founded Hurley Priory, Berkshire, for the souls of “uxoris meæ Lecelinæ…”, by undated charter witnessed by “Lecelina domina uxor mea, Willielmus de Magnavilla…”[673]. ”Walterus de Gant, filius et hæres Gisilberti de Gant” restored Bardney Abbey in 1115, witnessed by “Roberto de ---, Willielmo nepote meo constabulario Cestriæ, Willielmo de Mandevill…,” m ([1100/05]) as her first husband, MARGUERITE, daughter of EUDES de Rie, dapifer,of Colchester, Essex & his wife Rohese ---. The Genealogia Fundatoris of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names “Margareta” as daughter of “Eudoni dapifero Regis Normanniæ,” adding that she married “Willielmo de Mandavill” by whom she was mother of “Gaufridi filii comitis Essexiæ et iure matris Normanniæ dapifer.” According to the Complete Peerage, this genealogy is “probably erroneous” but it does not explain the basis for the doubts. She married secondly ([1116/19]) Ottiwell. This second marriage is suggested by the charter dated [1141/42] under which Empress Matilda made various grants of property including a grant to "Willelmo filio Otuel fratri…Comitis Gaufredi."
