Notes


PERNEL [Petronille] (-1 Apr 1212). Pernel is named as great-granddaughter of Hugues de Grantmesnil in the [1190/1204] charter of her son Robert FitzPernel to the abbey of St Evroul[417]. She names her father “Guillaume” in one of her charters for Notre-Dame-du-Bois de Saint-Evroult[418]. Her father is named Hugues de Grantmesnil (supposed son of Robert de Grantmesnil) in an account of the foundation of Leicester Abbey, although the Complete Peerage casts doubt on the accuracy of this document as the same source gives details of properties she inherited from her supposed father which are incompatible with this parentage[419]. Robert de Torigny records that Pernel’s husband gained the Norman honour of Grantmesnil through his marriage[420]. "Robertus filius comitis Legrece" donated property to Notre-Dame de la Trappe for the soul of "uxoris mee Petronille" by charter dated [1153/67][421]. “Robertus comes Legrec” confirmed property in Garendon and “in nemoribus meis de Sepehevid et de Disselai” to Garendon abbey by charter dated 1169, witnessed by “Petronilla comitissa, Willo filio meo...”[422]. "Petronilla comitissa Leircestrie" confirmed the exchange of land with Nuneaton priory made by "Robertus comes Leircestrie filius meus", who gave land in Belgrave in return for land in Dadlington which had been donated by "sponsus meus Robertus comes…cum filia mea pie memorie Hawis", by charter dated to after 1189[423]. The Testa de Nevill lists knights who held land from the king in Hertfordshire, dated to [1204/12]: "comitissa de Leicestria" held "Wares"[424]. The necrology of Lyre monastery records the death "1 Apr" of "Petronilla comitissa Leicestriæ"[425]. The necrology of the monastery of Ouche records the death "1 Apr" of "Petronilla comitissa Leycestriæ"[426]. The necrology of Garendon abbey (Leicestershire) records the death “Kal Apr” of “Petronilla de Grantamenile uxor ipsius Roberti secundi”[427]. m (before [1155/59]) ROBERT de Beaumont "ès Blanchemains", son of ROBERT de Beaumont Earl of Leicester & his wife Amicie de Gaël (-Durazzo 1190). He succeeded his father in 1168 as Earl of Leicester.
