Corbet: [1]
Shropshire: [2]
No records have been found to identify a birth date or place for Roger Corbet. He appears in England after the Battle of Hastings as the son of a man identified as Corbet, noble of Normandy.
Boyer shows him born 1050 to 1056. [4].
His place of birth therefore would be Normandy. Many sources suggest the Pays de Caux area of Normandy, based on Roger's later naming his castle in Shropshire as Caux castle. Coulton reports that "most accounts of the family follow R.W.Eyton in locating the family in the Pays de Caux. Eyton asserts this as a fact, without citing original sources. He was following an idea of J.B.Blakeway, but Blakeway was by no means so definite: "what seems nearly certain is, that the family settled in the Pais de Caux." He gives no references for this supposition. The source he uses for an early Corbet lineage, the Histoire du Cambray et du Cambresis par Jean le Carpentier, Leyden 1664, deals with another branch of the family, and there is no reference to the Pays de Caux.[7]
Others have suggested Pays d'Auge, Calvados, Normandy, as the place of birth and/or family association. [5] Documents testify to the presence of the family in that area: holding land at Crocy in Calvados; donating land to the abbey of St-Martin and Ste Barbara at Ste-Barbe-en-Auge. [8] Later documents testify to the presence of the family in that area: holding land at Crocy in Calvados; donating land to the abbey of St-Martin and Ste Barbara at Ste-Barbe-en-Auge. [9]
Wherever in Normandy he was born, he arrived in England as a young man at or after the Battle of Hastings, accompanying his father, a man of vigor but mature years. If the father was born, say, 1020, he would have been aged 46 at the Battle of Hastings. Assume the father married at age 21, or 1041, and had his sons in the years immediately following. Assume also that Robert is the oldest: a birth year of 1042 would be the most appropriate guess.
Birth years for Roger have been reported as early as 1033; if Roger's father was 25 years older, it would make him in his upper and less vigorous 50's rather than 40's at the time of the Battle. Birth years for Roger have been reported as late as 1058; this would make Roger only aged 8 at the time of the Battle, and suggest a much later arrival in England as a young man. Weber estimates births about 1050 to 1056[5]
1050 appears to be a good compromise for an estimated birth year; Roger would have been aged 16 at the time of the Battle, but his brothers would have been younger, and this favors those who suggest the Corbets arrived after the Battle of Hastings and did not participate in it.
Boyer shows Roger FitzCorbet as the second son of Hugo le Corbeau or Le Corbet. [4]
Janet Meisel asserts that "most probably, it was Roger, not Robert, who was the elder son and heir of Corbet. Roger's name regularly precedes Robert's in the charters which they both witness, and Roger's holdings in Shropshire in 1086 are considerably greater than Robert's (Roger is listed as holding some thirty-five manors containing more than 140 hides while Robert has only fifteen manors containing approximately 22 hides).[10] "_Rogerio Chorbet_" and "_Roberto Chorbet_" witness a charter of Roger, earl of Shrewsbury, between 1085 and 1094 (CSPS, no. 2). Note: CSPS=Cartulary of Saint Peter's of Shrewsbury (NLW MS 7851D [Phillipps MS 3516]) & NLW=National Library of Wales. "_Rogerius Corbet_" and "_Roberto frater eius" were present at a royal court which decided a dispute over the Shropshire manor of _Fertecote_ between 1107 and 1113 (ibid., no. 1.). "_Rogerius filius Corbet_" and "_Robertus frater eius" also witnessed a charter of Henry I between January 1121 and October 1122 (ibid., no. 35.). [11] and Roger's holdings in Shropshire in 1086 are considerably greater that Robert's (Roger is listed as holding some thirty-five manors containing more than 140 hides, while Robert has only fifteen manors containing 22 hides). [12]
Le Carpentier stated, however, that Roger and Robert were the second and fourth sons of Corbet. [6]
"We do not know whom they married, nor when, nor the dates of birth of their children. This is not surprising for most of the evidence comes from witness-lists to charters." [6]
Boyer states that he married the heiress of Tasley. [13]
As noted above, the best estimation of birth years suggests they were two young to have participated in the 1066 Battle of Hastings and came from Normandy later. Coulton observes that "they must have been young men when they were brought to Shropshire to serve Earl Roger; they were still alive fifty years later. [6]
Roger fitz Corbet's largest manor was Worthen, north of Rea Brook: its 14½ hides supported men-at-arms as well as villagers. His other twenty-four manors included Yockleton, Westbury and Wattlesborough to the north and Pontesbury to the east of Worthen; further east lay his brother's chief manor of Longden.11 [14]
It might be better to think of Roger fitz Corbet as baron or lord of Worthen (rather than Caus) , which supported four of his militis; Alretune was also important, supporting five milities - its is now identified as Trewern in Montgomeryshire. [15]
Soon after Domesday, building himself a castle at Alreton, Roger named it Caus in honour of his birthplace. [16]
The site which later became the caput of the Corbet barony is not mentioned in early records, but it will be as well to review at this point what has been written of Cause - the first known reference to which occurs some fifty years after the Domesday Survey. [6]
"Roger Corbet built a border fortress at his Castle at Alfreton which he named Caux Castle after his home domain in Normandy. It was later spelt Cause." [17]
In any event, it is clear that it was Roger, not Robert, who was the founder of the barony of Caus, not only because the manor of Caus (_Alretone_) was held by Roger, in Domesday Book, [18] but because Robert died without legitimate male heirs. [5]
"Caus Castle is situated high up on the eastern foothills of the Long Mountain, guarding the route from Shrewsbury to Montgomery in the valley below.
Caus Castle was built by Roger FitzCorbet in the late 11th century and named after his Normandy estate in Pays de Caux. The castle was so important that the Crown took an interest in its maintenance. Henry II had it garrisoned in 1165 and a grant was made towards building work (carried out) by Robert Corbet in 1198. During the late 12th century a town was founded in the large outer bailey. It flourished for a while but later decayed and was deserted by the early 17th century. On the death of Beatrice Corbet in 1347, Caus passed to the Staffords." [19]
The site which later became the caput of the Corbet barony is not mentioned in early records, but it will be as well to review at this point what has been written of Cause - the first known reference to which occurs some fifty years after the Domesday Survey. [6]
The original site was not the present ruinous stone castle but another, identified as Hawcock's Mount: "it probably lay within one of the 13 unnamed berewicks of the Domesday manor of Worthen." [15]
We learn from Ordericus that Earl Roger of Montgomery, who probably organised the frontier defenses of Shropshire, was ably seconded in the government of his province by Corbet and his sons Roger and Rodbert. [2]
Roger the first of nine barons of Caus. The relationships between some of them are not completely clear:
He witnessed a charter by Roger de Montgomery to Shrewsbury Abbey by 1086 (according to AEC, 18, the date was 1083). [4].
Roger was one of the witnesses to the charter to the earl's church of Quatford on 22 July 1086, when the bishops of Worcester, Hereford and Chester were also present. [20]
"[Earl] Roger founded a new borough on a well-chosen site at Quatford, where he may have sought to set up a new market." [21]
While the Corbets, like Picot de Sai and William Pantolf, were leading tenants of Earl Roger, Richard de Belmeis and Rainald de Baillol were among his officers and clerks. Richard de Belmeis was from Beaumais-sur-Dive in the Hi‚mois, an able man who later became a royal servant and bishop of London. Rainald, the sheriff of Shropshire, had more estates than the Corbets and Picot combined. He may have had a deputy, Fulk, who had manors at Withington and Little Withyford. The earl's steward may have been Ralf de Mortimer of Cleobury, holder of nearly twenty manors and related to William of Warenne, another of the earl's tenants in Shropshire. [22] These men formed the society of which the Corbets were part, perhaps marrying into such families. The grant of land at Impney in Worcestershire to Worcester Cathedral by Roger Corbet and Hugh de Sai and his wife Margaret may indicate some relationship. [23]
"Corbet the Norman was dead before 1086: for his son, Roger Fitz Corbet, is the Domesday baron, and built a castle at Alfreton as the head of his honour, which he names Caux, from Pays de Caux, his former home in Normandy.
"This was one of the Border castles which, for two centuries after Domesday, served its continuous purposes of aggression and defence." [Eyton's Shropshire.] It stood in a strong position, commanding the pass called the Valley of the Rea; for, as a former marcher fortress, "it was exposed to all the turmoil of a hostile frontier"; and was taken and burnt by the Welsh in the time of his successor. [Ref: Corbet citing: Battle Abbey Roll & Eyton's Shropshire] [5]
By the time of the Domesday Survey in 1086 the Corbet estates were divided between Roger, the greater share, and his brother Robert. Their place in the list of the earl's tenants, immediately after the sheriff, "corresponds to the extent of their combined estate and their responsible position on an exposed part of the frontier towards Wales." [24]
Curt Hofemann states that between them, they were granted 38 lordships in Shropshire where they assisted Earl Roger (de Montgomery) in the administration of his domains in that county. [25]
Curt Hofemann states that Roger Corbet built a border fortress at his Castle at Alfreton which he named Caux Castle after his home domain in Normandy. It was later spelt Cause. [25]
The holdings in Derbyshire of the father, called Norman, Roger the second eldest son and Robert the youngest son, both sons sometimes listed as FitzCorbet, are listed together as family domains. They were under-tenants of Earl Roger in Shropshire. Edderton, Forden, Mellington, Hem, Hopton, Thornbury, Hyssington, Leighton, Weston [25]
In the Domesday Book of 1086, Roger FitzCorbet and his brother Robert were listed as some of the most important tenants-in-chief of the king and also of the powerful Marcher Lord Roger, Earl of Shrewsbury[4][5] Roger is generally believed to have been the first feudal baron of Caus in Shropshire, which was a barony within the marcher lordship of Roger de Montgomerie (died 1094). He was succeeded after 1121 by his son Robert FitzCorbet (d. pre-1155). He was succeeded by Roger FitzCorbet, who himself was succeeded by Robert (died 1222), who left a son Thomas who died in 1274. There followed his son and heir Peter Corbet (died 1300) who left a son Peter Corbet (died 1322), who died childless. The barony then passed to his half-brother John. Although the family soon died out in the senior line, when the barony was lost, cadet branches spread out and thrived. [26]
Roger & Robert FitzCorbet's Shropshire Land Holdings:
Acton Burnell, Alberbury, Brompton, Cardestone, Cause, Choulton, Eyton, Farley, Great Hanwood, Longden, Loton, Marrington, Middleton (Chirbury), Oakes, Pontesbury, Preist Weston, Ratlinghope, Stapleton, Wattlesborough, Welbatch, Wentnor, Westbury, Whitton, Winsley, Wollaston, Wormerton, Woodcote, Woolstaston, Worthen, Yockleton [25]
He was awarded twenty-five manors (Saxon townships), while his brother Robert was awarded fifteen, all in Shropshire. [4].
"In the time of William the Conqueror, the brothers, Roger and Robert, mentioned in Doomsday Book as sons of Corbet, held of Roger de Montgomery divers lordships in the co. of Salop, and were munificent benefactors to the church." [Ref: Burke's Extinct 1883 p136, Corbet, Barons Corbet] [5]
As followers of the earl, they were probably involved in the incipient rebellion which followed the death of William I in Normandy on 9 September 1087. The king's eldest son, Robert, "was in revolt and keeping company with his father's chief enemy King Philip ... But the king's other surviving sons were there". It was William whom the dying king dispatched to England; he gave his other son Henry a substantial sum of money. [27]
"Hugh (son of Earl Roger of Montgomery) succeeded as earl on his father's death in July 1094. Earl Roger was buried in Shrewsbury Abbey, on which occasion Roger fitz Corbet's grant of the church of Wentnor and the tithes of Yockleton was made." [28]
Between 1094 and 1098 Hugh, the new earl of Shewsbury, confirmed Roger's gift to Shrewsbury Abbey,[29] and Roger often appeared as a witness to Hugh's charters. [30]
About 1102 he was given the authority to defend the castle at Bridgenorth of the rebellious Robert de Belleme, son of Roger de Montgomery. The King sent William Pantulph as an envoy to negotiate the surrender of the castle, which Roger opened. Henceforth Roger held his lands directly from the king, while robert de Belleme lost his. [4]
When Earl Hugh died in 1098, Roger quite naturally became the loyal vassal of the earl's brother and successor, Robert de Bellême; but under this particular earl the relationship between Roger and the earls of Shrewsbury - a relationship which had been the source of almost all of the Corbet's properity and power - was to lead Roger into acute peril. [5]
The Corbet allegiance to the Montgomery family involved them" once again in rebellion early in Henry's reign, again in support of Duke Robert of Normandy. King Henry did not trust Robert of Bellême, earl of Shrewsbury, and had spies reporting on him for a year, during which time the earl asked the Welsh for help and strengthened his castles. In 1102 the king summoned Earl Robert to court to answer charges against him, but he fled to his castles, which the king besieged. Arundel fell first, and Blyth; then the king led his troops "into the province of Mercia, where he besieged Bridgnorth for three weeks", as Orderic recounts. "Robert himself had withdrawn to Shrewsbury and put Bridgnorth castle in the charge of Roger, son of Corbet, Robert of Neuville, and Ulger the huntsman, with eighty mercenary knights under their command."[31]
The episode is also recorded in Welsh chronicles which tell how the king encamped at a distance from Bridgnorth and took counsel. "And the main counsel he received was to send messengers to the Britons and in particular to Iorwerth ap Bleddyn, and to invite him and his host into his presence and to promise him more than he would obtain from the earl." [32]
Bribery was effective. William Pantolf, who had been disinherited by the earl, acted a mediator with the castellans at Bridgnorth, and they mad a timely surrender. The earl's lands were forfeit and he was allowed to go into exile. [6]
In 1102, Robert de Bellême rebelled against King Henry I, and when Henry appeared in Shropshire with his army, Robert retreated to the stronghold of Shrewsbury. As Robert made his retreat, he left the castle of Bridgnorth - perhaps the greatest castle in Shropshire at this time - in the hands of Roger Corbet and his two subordinates, Robert de Neuville and Ulger the Hunter.[33]
Although besieged by "the military force of the whole of England," [34] Roger managed to hold Bridgnorth for three months, but he was then betrayed by the townsmen of Bridgnorth, who secretly agreed to surrender the town to the besieging army. When Roger and his troops learned of this betrayal, "they fled to arms . . . and tried to render the negotiation abortive," but "the [local] garrison soldiers . . . blockaded them in one part of the fortress and let in the king's troops." At that point, "the king, taking into consideration that [they] had faithfully performed their service to their lord, as was their duty, gave them free liberty to depart with their horses and arms." [35]
With the fall of Bridgnorth, Robert de Bellême's rebellion quickly collapsed, and the rebel earl then left England forever. [5] After his departure from Bridgnorth, Roger Corbet disappears from the surviving records almost entirely. Considering the relative paucity of such records, this is perhaps not surprising, although Roger's advancing age and his role in the Bellême revolt may have dictated that he lead a less active, and thus less conspicuous, life. [5]
Roger Corbet is mentioned as the first of the three commanders to whom the Norman Earl Rogert de Belesme entrusted the castle of Bridgenorth, when it was beseiged by king Henry I in 1102. [2]
Some six to fourteen years after the fall of Bridgnorth, Roger and his _son_ Robert, together with some of the great men of the realm, witnessed a notitia_of a precept of King Henry to the bishop of London - "Witnesses: King Henry, Richard, bishop of London; Alan Fitz Flaald; Hamo Peverel; Roger Corbet; Robert his son; Herbert Fitz Helgot; and many other good men." [36] At about the same time, Roger and his _brother_, Robert, along with "bishop Richard [of London], Alan Fitz Flaald, Hamo Peverel, Herbert Fitz Helgot and many others" [37] were present at a royal court which decided a dispute over the manor of Fertecote_. [38]
Hamo de Peveerel, Richard de belmeis, Bishop of London, and Roger fitz Corbe3t all attested to a charter signed by King Henry I in 1109 at the Castle of holgate. [4]
It is also clear that while both Roger and Robert held all of their Shropshire lands of the earls of Shrewsbury, it was Roger Corbet who was the friend and close associate of Earl Roger. Roger Corbet was one of the most regular witnesses to the charters of the earl, [39]and when the earl died in July 1094, it was Roger, almost alone of the earl's men, who was moved to make a donation for the good of his soul. [5]
"When the earl [Roger] was dead and when his body was being consigned to the grave in the church of St. Peter [Shrewsbury Abbey], Roger fitz Corbet gave to the monks the church of Nutenore (Wentor] with the tithe of the same vill and the tithe of Jochehulla [Yockleton]. "[40]
This close association between Roger Corbet and the earls of Shrewsbury continued under Earl Roger's successors. [5]
Roger then disappears from the surviving records until 1121, when, together as usual with is brother, Robert, he was a witness to Henry I's charter to Shrewsbury Abbey. [41]
Roger's final recorded act was his grant to the monks of Shrewsbury of his town of _Wineslaga_ (Winsley). [42]
He made this grant sometime between 1121 and 1136, and like most of the charters in which he appears, it was witnessed by Robert Corbet as well. [5]
A more important ecclesiastical foundation was the abbey at Shrewsbury, with Benedictine monks from the Norman abbey of Sées. Although the 'foundation charter' is judged to be spurious, its substance is correct and "no objection can be raised to any of the witnesses." [43] Among these were the four sons of the earl by his first wife; Richard de Belmeis, Reinald de Baillol, 'Roger Chorbet' and 'Robert Chorbet': the Corbets are the last two names in a list of nine.
Roger Fitz Corbet, the Domesday baron, gave the Vill of Wineslega (Winsley) to Shrewsbury Abbey, and died about 1121.[2]
His son, at all events, peaceably succeeded to the barony in 1121; and the line continued, without a break, for more than two hundred years after that. These Barons of Caus were assiduous at their arduous post as guardians of the frontier: and an ancient roll that names Robert Corbet among those present with Couer de Leon at the siege of Acre, is discredited by Eyton on the ground (among others) that "a Lord Marcher was little likely to become a crusader," having his hands so full at home." [44]
Roger Corbet, "Domesday Baron of Cause, formerly Alretone, Shropshire, England, as it was called in Domesday, and died about 1134. [5][45]
Boyer calculates the death date because Pagan Fitrz john, sheriff and governor of shropshire, having succeeded Richard de Belmeis, held Caus in 1134, and would not have dared to take it during Roger's lifetime. The castle was destroyed by the Welsh attacking Pagan fitz John. It had been one of the strongholds along the Welsh border between the rivers Dee and Wye. [46]
He died as Pagan Fitz John, sheriff and governor of Shropshire, having succeeded Richard de Belmeis, held Cause in 1134, and would not have dared to take it during Roger's lifetime; the castle was destroyed by the Welsh attacking Pagan Fitz John. It had been one of the strongholds along the Welsh border between the rivers Dee and Wye. He married the heiress of Talsey. [5]
Robert Corbet died after January 1121/22 in Worthen, Forden, Shropshire, England[5] Roger Corbet. Alive at least between 1080 & 1122. May have fought at the Battle of Hastings. Held 24 manors in Shropshire in 1086 (Domesday Survey). [5]
The precise date of Roger's death is uncertain, but is seems clear that he died sometime before the granting of King Stephen's charter to Shrewsbury Abbey in 1136. In this charter, Stephen confirmed Roger's gift of Winsley to the abbey, but this charter adds that Roger's donation has also been confirmed by his sons, William and Evrard (presumably, as was conventional, shortly after their father's death). [47]
"Roger held of Robert de Montgomery, Earl of Shrewsbury, Huelbeck, Hundeslet, Actun, Ternley, and Prestun, all in Shropshire. "[Ref Burke, John and John Bernard, _Extinct and Dormant Baronetcies of England, Ireland, and Scotland_, Scott, Webster, and Geary, London,1841, p. 132, Corbet, of Stoke] [5]
It is Roger who is the ancestor of the numerous families that have planted the name in the county. He constantly appears as a witness to Earl Roger's charters; and continued the faithful liegeman of his two sons, for he and Ulgar Venator were the only Shropshire chiefs that adhered to the last to Robert de Belesme. He held Bridgnorth Castle for his Earl against Henry I for three months; and it is, according to Eyton "A question" whether he forfeited his estate by his rebellion. [44]
Augusta Corbet's Pedigree of the Barons of Caus shows Roger Fitz-Corbet, Domesday Baron of Caus, ob. (circa) 1134 [48] as the father of four children: William Corbet of Wattlesborough, Baron of Caus; Everard, ob. s. p.; Simon, ob. s. p.; Roger, Lord of Tasley, ob. 1175, and Robert, founder of the Swedish Branch of Corbets.
Boyer shows five children for Roger: William, Everard, Simon, Roger, and Robert. [4]
Augusta Corbet's Pedigree of the Barons of Caus shows Roger Fitz-Corbet, Domesday Baron of Caus, ob. (circa) 1134 [48] as the father of four children: William Corbet of Wattlesborough, Baron of Caus; Everard, ob. s. p.; Simon, ob. s. p.; Roger, Lord of Tasley, ob. 1175, and Robert, founder of the Swedish Branch of Corbets.
There are conflicting reports as to whether William had children. John Anderson Corbet"s listing of the Barons shows William as the second baron, but then his brother Ebrard, Everard, as the third, which would be unlikely if William had children. In John Anderson Corbet's listing, Everard is followed by Roger Corbet II, whose parentage is not, however, provided. In Augusta Corbet's pedigree, Everard is skipped, and the Barony passes directly from William to Roger, who is his son.
Augusta Corbet shows him as the Robert who is said to have migrated to Scotland and founded the Scottish branch of the family. [48]

Alberbury
On November 22, 1248, a fine was levied between Thomas Corbet and Fulk Fitz-Warin, concerning the customs and service required by Corbet on a knight's fee held by Fitz-Warin in Alberbury. It was this Fulk Fitz-Warin III who founded Alberbury priory.

Wattlesborough.
From the 12th century, Wattlesborough was held by a race of knights, who, descended from Roger Fitz Corbet, the Domesday baron. Already divergent, in Henry the Second's time the connecting link between the baronial and the knightly Corbets has been lost; and all we are certain of is, that Richard Corbet, entered on the Shropshire Pipe Roll of 1179-80 as a vassal of the barony, is the first of his line who can be named as holding Wattlesborough under the barons of Caus.
A century later, and we have this Richard's grandson, Sir Robert Corbet, prepared to do full military service under his suzerain Peter Corbet of Caus against Lewellyn.
Descending from the Corbets to the Mouthes; from them to the Burghs; and from them to the Liehgtons; Wattlesborough castle was successfively maintained as a residence by each of these families til the year 1712.
Page 368
In William the Conqueror's time, however, Woodcote was a distinct manor, one of that series which Robert Corbet held of the Norman earl.
Page 369
Robert Fitz-Corbet, the Domesday lord of Woodcote, was brother to Roger Fitz-Corbet, the Domesday lord of Woodcote, was brother to Roger Fitz-Corbet, baron of Caus.
The fief which Robert held was less than that of his elder brother.
In 1121 the brothers appear together, attesting Henry I"s charger to Shrewsbury Abbey.
Yet Robert's relationship with that king was not reputable; for Sibil, or, as she is otherwise called, Adela Corbet, his eldest daughter, was one of the numerous mistresses of Henry I, by whom she had at least two sons, and probably a daughter.
Roger, the elder of these illegitimate offshoots of royalty, was surnamed De Dunstanville.
Sibil Corbet afterwards became the lawful wife of Herbert, son of Herbert, the king's chamberlain, and her descendants by him eventually acquiring a share in Robert Fitz-Corbet's barony, they exercised the seigneury over Woodcote.
Longden
Alice, youngest daughter and co-heir of Robert Fitz-Corbet, marrying William Botterell of Cornwall, upon the death of Reginald, earl of Cornwall, the Botterells obtained, like the Fitz-Herberts, their moiety of Robert Corbet's barony, and thenceforth Longden was reputed to be caput of the Shropshire barony of Boterell or Botreaux.
Sir William de Boterell IV alienated Longden to Robert Burnel, bishop of Bath and Wells, in exchange for lands in Somerssetshire. Accordingly, the feoday of 1284 states, that "the bishop holds Langdedon of the
