• Background Information. 996
This family took its name from "Glanville," a place in the Arrondissement of Port l'Eveque in Normandy, at a very early date, and it flourished in England before the Conquest. [Histories Normannorum Scriptores Antiqui, by Chesne.] Rainald or Ranulph de Glanville was Lord of Glanville circa 1040, and he, about 1064, witnessed a charter in favour of Robert de Mowbray. [Gall. Chris., xi., 60, Ins.] His son Ranulph de Glanville, "Le Sire de Glanville," entered England in the train of William Duke of Normandy, [Hist. Lit. de la France, 545] and was a witness, with William the Conqueror, Matilda his Queen to the grant which Walter Giffard, Earl of Buckingham, made to the Monks of Cerasie in Normandy. [Mon. Angl., original ed., 960] He also gave his house in Jakesley to the Monks of Eye. [Davy's Suff. Collection, from an old Chronicle, 423] His brother, William de Glanville, was Dean and Archdeacon of Liseaux in Normandy 1077. [Hist. Lit. de la France, etc.] By his wife Flandrina he had issue, Robert de Glanville, William de Glanville, Walter de Glanville, and Sir Hervey de Glanville. He is not mentioned in Domesday Book; he might have died before the survey was made, or returned to his Lordship in Normandy.
