removed Ralph (Blewett) Bluet (abt.1280-1335) - that profile is for the Ralph who married Amice Pichard. The Ralph who married Hawise de Monthermer is the one shown in this pedigree.

Sorry to rain on everyone's parade but the historical evidence in the UK does not match this document. At that date where the document claims Sir William Bluet as 'Earl of Sarum' or Earl of Salisbury, the actual Earl of Salisbury was was William Longespee (an illegitimate son of the King). This is shown in an academic source on the History of Lackham Manor and The Bluets https://www.wiltshire.ac.uk/assets/media/documents/Lackham%20History/The-Bluets-a-baronial-family-at-Lackham-1066-1400.pdf

I think the closest we get to Earldom is marrying into the Earl of Pembroke's family (the de Clares)
