Biography

Guillaume, brother to Gilbert Crispin, witnessed a charter dated about 1047. [1]

He was Keeper of the castle of Neaufles. [2]

The History of the Crispin family (De nobili genere Crispinorum ), said to be written by Miles Crispin in the early 1100's, tells us that the three sons of "Gilbert, surnamed Crispin" and his wife were "Gilbert jr, William and Robert".

"Gislebertum, Willelmum…et Robertum" as the three sons of "Gislebertus…Crispini cognomen" and his wife. [3]

The De nobili genere Crispinorum records that "Willelmus Crispinus" married "Evam…de gente Francorum" [4] ... The suggestion that this Eva was the dau. of Amaury III, Sire de Montfort l’Amaury & his wife Bertrade is explained in The Complete Peerage. [5]

The Chronique de Normandie, based on le Roman de Rou, names "Guillaume Crespin" among those who took part in the conquest of England in 1066. [6]

Guillaume died in 1874[7] and is buried at Bec abbey, Place de l'Abbé Herluin, Le Bec-Hellouin, France. [8] [9]

Hello,

Current profile information has this person born after their parent's death, which has raised an error in Wikitree's database.

Please can this be investigated with the view to potential correction using sources?

Thank you,

David

Is there a source for his DOB? His mother is listed as having died in 1024, so either his DOB is off or the Mother’s DOD is off.
