This article appears in Volume V03, Page 591 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: VIR-WAT
WALERAN DE BEAUMONT (11041166) obtained his father's French fiefs and the title of count of Meulan in 1118. After being imprisoned for five years by
Henry
  I. he spent some time in England, and during the civil war between Stephen and the empress Matilda he fought for the former until about 1150, when he deserted the king and assisted the empress. His later history appears to have been uneventful. The county of Meulan remained in possession of the Beaumont family until 1204, when it was united with the royal domain.
Another member of the Beaumont family, possibly a relative of the earlier Beaumonts, was Lours DE BEAUMONT (d. 1333), bishop of Durham from 1317 until his death. This prelate was related to the English king, Edward II., and after a life spent in strife and ostentation, he died on the 24th of September 1333. JOHN BEAUMONT, master of the rolls under Edward VI., was probably a member of the same family. A dishonest and corrupt judge, he was deprived of his office and imprisoned in 1552
The barony of Beaumont
dates
  from 1309, when
HENRY
  BEAUMONT (d. 1340), who was constable of England in 1322, was summoned to
parliament
  under this title. It was retained by his descendants until the death of William, the 7th baron and the end viscount,' in 1507, when it fell into abeyance. In 184o the barony was revived in favour of Miles
Thomas
  Stapleton (1805-1854), a descendant of Joan, Baroness Lovel, a daughter
1 His father John (d. 1460), the 6th baron,
great
 
chamberlain
  and constable of England, was the first person advanced to the dignity of a viscount in England.of the 6th baron, and it has since been retained by his descendants.
In 1906 WENTWORTIr BLACKETT BEAUMONT (1829-1907), the head of a family well known in the north of England, was created Baron Allendale.
