342. Record of a suit, held before Duke Robert, between the Abbot of St. Florent of Saumur and Ranulf Abbot of Lonlay, respecting the gifts which William de Braose had given to St. Florent [see the award of 1080 by William I ; supra, No. 121]. The suit was heard at the Council of Bonneville on a Thursday. The Abbot of Lonlay made default, and judgement was given against him. Witnesses : Odo Bp. of Bayeux ; Gilbert Maminot Bp. [of Lisieux] ; Roger, the Roman cardinal ; Gilbert Abbot of [St. Stephen of] Caen ; Arnulf Abbot of Troarn ; [Wido] Count of Ponthieu ; Robert of Belleme, his son-in- law ; William Count of Evxeux ; Ralph de Guader ; Engelramn fitz Hilbert ; Eudo Haldup [the vicomte] ; besides other witnesses who attested on behalf of the Abbot of Lonlay and William de Braose. [Copy in Livre blanc de St.-Florent (Archives of Maine-et-Loire), fo. 116 v". Mem. de la Soc. des Antiquaires de Nortnandie, xxx. (1880), p. 682; Round, C.D.F. 1115 (calendared).] These events took place immediately before the dedication of the church of St. Gervase and Prothase, which took place on Dec. 11, 1093 (Rouud, C.D.F. No. 1118), The Council of Bonneville was probably convened to discuss the breach which was then imminent between the Duke and Williara II. https://archive.org/details/regestaregumang01grea/page/88/mode/2up?q=Haldup | ||

He grants to the abbey of the Holy Trinity and St. Mary the Virgin erected in St. Oportuna (L’Essay) the gifts of Richard called Turstin Haldub and Eudo his son, its founders, and of their tenants, whether clerks or knights of officers (ministri) or women, given through them, and all those given subsequently, whether by barons by clerks, by knights, or by women (the gifts in Normandy are then specified).

He also gave the abbey by the wish and at the advice of his wife Muriel and his sons Richard and Ralf and of his men, the churches of Brotebeia and Cambrigeham and Felingeham, and his rights in the church of Rison and the churches of Berlinges and Subroc, and that of Suavetona, saving the rights of the monks there, with all their appurtenances and a bovate (bovariam) of land at Brotebeia. The king also confirms to the abbey the endowments (elemosinas) given in alms for ever by Roger de Albineio and Amicia his wife with consent of their sons William and Nigel, namely in the church of St. Samson of Giuellifossa that part which Osmund de Filgeriis, clerk, held of them, and the tithe of the toll of the fair of St. Christopher and the market of Aubigny (foro Albinci) and all their rights (habebant (fn. 12) ) in Mons-famelosus and in Maisnil-Ogeris, and all that the sons of Ranulf Espec held in Alnum and in Ostella and in Herpaiz-Mesnil of their grant (beneficium).
