General Notes:
~Baronia Anglica Concentrata, Vol. I, p. 137, came to England with William the conqueror and died 1141, married Agnes Paynel. This Pedigree omits this generation of Robert de Brus. It isn't likely the the Robert de Brus who came with William the Conqueror is the one who died in 1141 while in battle. He would be close to 100 years old at the time. 814
