BRAOSE, WILLIAM DE (d. 1211)

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 432 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BOS-BRI
BRAOSE, WILLIAM DE (d. 1211) , lord of Brecknock, Radnor and Limerick, spent the early
part
  of his
life
  fighting the Welsh in Radnorshire. He was high in King John's favour, received a large number of honours, and was even given the custody of Prince Arthur. But John and he quarrelled, probably over money (1207). In 1208 John began to suspect the fidelity of the whole family, and William had to fly to Ireland. After a number of attempted reconciliations, he was outlawed (1210) and died at
Corbeil
  (1211). It is said that his wife and son were starved to death by John.
See Foedera, i. 107; Histoire des dues (ed. Michel), Wendover; Kate Norgate's John Lackland.
A descendant, William de Braose (d. 1326), lord of Gower, was a devoted follower of
Edward
  I., and in 1299 was summoned to
parliament
  as baron de Braose; and his nephew
Thomas
  de Braose (d. 1361) also distinguished himself in the wars and was summoned as baron de Braose in 1342. This latter barony became
extinct
  in 1399; but a claim to the barony of William de Braose, which, as he had no son, fell into abeyance between his two daughters and co-heirs, Alina (wife of Lord
Mowbray
 ) and Joan (wife of John de
Bohun
 ), or their descendants, may still be traced by careful genealogists in various noble English families.
