In 1260 he and his wife conveyed to Gerard de Lisle, their younger son, her Mundford estate, and two years later Alice, as widow, confirmed the grant and released Gerard from payment of the rent of £10 which had been due to her late husband. She died in or before 1284.

• Background Information. 1216 Henry Fitz Gerold, who succeeded to Kingston Lisle in 1218, married Ermentrude Talbot and had a son and heir Warin alive in 1254 [Eynsham Cartul. loc. cit.; Anct. D. (P.R.O.), C 2135; Feet of F. Berks. 26 Hen. III, no. 25; 30 Hen. III, no. 3; Rôles Gascons, i, 472]. Warin evidently died without issue, for Alice, the daughter of Henry [Abbrev. Plac. (Rec. Com.), 311], was his ultimate heir. She married Robert de Lisle of Rougemont [Blomfield, Topog. Hist. of Norfolk, ii, 242\endash 3; Feet of F. Berks. 45 Hen. III, no. 3] and had two sons Robert and Gerard [Blomfield, loc. cit].
