Cawley's Foundation for Medieval Genealogy (FMG) notes the marriage of Margery de Briouse to Walter de Lacy, but provides no date. FMG does give a date of death for Margery as aft. 1255, see

Richardson at Vol 2, p 14 clearly shows Margaret (or Margery) married to Walter de Lacy, but is silent on date of marriage or her date of death.

Weiss, Frederick Lewis, "Ancestral Roots of Certain American Colonists", 8th ed, 2008, p 168 (177A-7 and 177B-7) clearly presents a marriage date of 19 Nov 1200, see https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/49030/images/FLHG_AncestralRoots-0192?ssrc=&backlabel=Return. I have checked the two sources listed by Weis, but neither includes a marriage date or death date for Margaret.

I have found a website that purports to be a history of Ewyas Lacy maintained by local historians, see http://www.ewyaslacy.org.uk/aboutus.php

This site includes this: Walter de Lacy married Margaret [?Margery] de Braose [Briouze], the daughter of William de Braose of Brecknock, Lord of Bramber, in November 1195 [?November 1200], and his son and heir Gilbert de Lacy was born c.1205 [1196?] in Ewyas. see http://www.ewyaslacy.org.uk/-/Theme-de-Lacy-family-history/1000-s-1100-s-1200-s/rs_ewy_0201

While the comment lacks sourcing, Weis' marriage date of 1200 certainly seems to be a typo.

Braose-55 and Braose-164 appear to represent the same person because: This is the same person. Please use sources on 164, thanks.

She is sometimes reported as born in 1177 in Bramber, England, and dying in Eways, England in 1200.
