Docs. France, no. 451]. This Robert died in or before 1106, when his widow Hawise became a nun in the abbey of Holy Trinity, Caen, granting to that house certain of her husband's lands, with the consent of her sons Roger, Helto, and Masses, the witnesses including William Marmion and Herluin de Fontenay. Her benefaction, including land in St. George d'Aunay and Jurques, both in Calvados, was confirmed by Henry III in 1246 [Cal. Charter Rolls, 1226-57, p.308].
