It was Robert III de Stoteville, or Stuteville, the young knight who was taken at Dive, who distinguished himself in the battle of the Standard (temp. Stephen), and was made sheriff of Yorkshire by Henry II, in the sixteenth year of his reign, and who was in possession at that time of seven or eight knights' fees in England, how acquired does not appear, but as he was twice married, his second wife being Sibilla, sister of Philip de Valoines, it is probable that some of the lands came to him with his wives. Thorpenhow, in the county of Cumberland, he certainly had in frank marriage with the latter. He also it was who, with Ranulph de Glanville and Bernard de Balieul, defeated the Scots near Alnwick (20 Henry II), and took their king prisoner.
"for Robert, the son and heir of this Robert II, was taken prisoner by King Henry I a few months afterwards, at the storming of Dive, and his father also at the battle of Tenchebrai, closely following. The son was liberated; but the elder Robert was sent a captive to England and immured for life in a dungeon, and the whole of his estates were seized and bestowed by King Henry on Nigel de Albini, ancestor of the second race of the Mowbrays."
Note: The above source has Patrick de Skipwith descending from this Robert. Burke's Peerage indicates that Patrick was a younger son of this Robert's son (also Robert).

Moriarty assumed Ernneburga was fitzBaldric's daughter because around 1087 some of Hugh FitzBaldric's lands found their way into Stuteville hands. Moriarty appears unaware that they had been confiscated and there is no evidence to support the assumption that Erneburga was Hugh's daughter. Other major landholders such as the Brus family received portions of fitz Baldric lands too. Hugh's known sons-in-law included Walter de Rivere and Guy de Craon. [K-R Domesday People,267-268].
