RALPH DE GUADER

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 872 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PYR-RAY
RALPH DE GUADER ,
earl
  of Norfolk (fl. 1070), was the son of a Norman who had held high positions in
East
  Anglia, perhaps that of
earl
 , in the reign of
Edward
  the Confessor (c. 1055). His son Ralph fought on the Norman side at Hastings, and was made earl of Norfolk by William the Conqueror. In 1075 the king's refusal to sanction his
marriage
  with the
sister
  of Roger, earl of
Hereford
 , caused the two earls to revolt. They were easily defeated, though Ralph sent to Denmark for ships and went there himself to fetch them. Ralph forfeited his
English
  lands, and took
refuge
  in Brittany on his wife's estate. In 1076, having plotted against Duke Hoel of Brittany, he was besieged at Doi, and the Conqueror came to Hoel's aid; but Ralph finally made his peace. Both he and his wife took
part
  in the first crusade (1099), and died on the road to Palestine.
