Biography

Rose was married twice:^[1]

1. Sir Robert Stockport, who was living in 23 Henry III [1238-39]; with whom she had children:
   1. Sir Robert Stockport;^[1]
   2. Margaret, who was the wife of William Vernon, during the time that William Ouresby was Justiciar of Cheshire;^[1]
2. Alexander de Bamvile;^[1] with whom she had children, including:
   1. Thomas, oldest son who married Havise, daughter of Robert de Winington;^[2]

Alexander's aunt, Joan Kingesley, who was the sister of his mother, Agnes, and the wife of Richard Kingesley, granted Alexander land, which he and his wife, Rose, gave to their first born son, Thomas, and his wife, Hawise, daughter of Robert de Winington: Ego Alexander de Bamuile & Roisa vxor mea. dedimus Thomae filio n'ro primogenito et Hauisa filiae Rob'ti de Winington : Terram meam in villa de p'va Storton, quas Joha'na quae fuit vxor Ric'i Kingesley mihi Alexandro dedit.^[2]

The version of this deed given in Helsby's 1882 revision of Ormerod's History of the County Palatine and City of Chester specifies Alexander and Rose gave the property to Thomas and Hawise his wife, daughter of Robert de Winington.^[3]

Parva Storeton is one of the myriad of historical names of Storeton, a major settlement in the parish of Bebington, Wirral hundred, Cheshire, England.^[4] Joan was a widow by 29 Henry III [1244-5], when at the Palatine Court, Chester, before Sir N de Wilib', Constable of Chester Castle, and Sir Walkelyn de Arderne, an obligation was entered into by the heirs of Richard de Kingslegh, namely William de Seneville, Dame Margery de Cholmondelegh, Randle le Roter and William Lancelyn, to set out full dower for Dame Jane, widow of Richard de Kingslegh, as of her husband's lands. ^[5]

In the time of Guncelyn de Badlesmere, 1274-1280, a Release by Alexander de Bamville, and Roesia his wife, of all their right, by reason of dower, after the death of Robert de Stokeport, formerly husband of the said Roesia, in the manors of Echeles, Stokeport, Bredburie, Romelegh, and Hatreslegh, was enrolled on the Cheshire Domesday Roll. (F. 34.)^[6]

Ralph, son of William de Northwyco, and Sibilla, his wife, made a grant to Alexandro de Baunvile and Reysia, his wife, which was witnessed by: lord Richard de Mascy, Richard de Sandbache, knights, William Launcelyn, William Gerard, Hugh de Thorneton, Hugh del Brom, William de Capenhurst' and others.^[7]

On 29 May, 1300, Robert Dovnvile, son of Robert, lord of Dovnvile, leased property in Storeton to Alexander de Baunvile and Roisia, his wife.^[8]

Research Notes

Some online family trees show Rose as the wife of Alexander Bamville of Baumville, Warwickshire, daughter of Robert Stourton of Wiltshire and his wife, Agnes of Staffordshire; some also show Rose as the sister of Alexander Sylvester aka Stourton, and therefore born in the first half of the twelfth century.^[9]

There is no evidence to support Rose or Alexander being the children of Robert de Stourton son of Botolph in The History Of Modern Wiltshire. Hundred of Mere, by Sir Richard Colt Hoare^[10] or the first volume of Charles Botolph Joseph, Lord Mowbray, Segrave and Stourton's The History of the Noble House of Stourton, of Stourton, in the County of Wilts.^[11]
