Biography
Birth
Lewis gives an approximate birth date of 1134[1], but if her mother was born about 1120, than a closer estimated date of birth would be 1140.
Parents
Farrer supposed that Avice was the daughter of William II de Lancaster[2], however it seems unlikely since the second William had a well-known daughter with the same name, who was in the main line of descent, and therefore much discussed in the records.
Marriage
In the 16th of Henry II (1169/70) the Pipe Rolls under Lancaster show that " Morevill promised Henry II 200 marks for a writ of right of the lands which he claimed in marriage with his said wife" , the daughter of William de Lancaster. See Pipe Rolls p.53 [3]
See for example the old ODNB article for her husband.[4]
Death
Richard and Avice confirmed to the monks of Furness, lands in Selside in Ribblesdale and Newby, Yorks., the year before Avice's death which occurred in December, 1192. [3]

lord of Galloway. AND AND I believe that the historian, Judith Green, has correctly identified Avice de Lancaster, wife of William Peverel the younger, as the daughter of William de Lancaster I. Avice apparently married (1st) William Peverel the younger, of Nottingham (living 1155), and (2nd) Richard de Morville (died 1189), Constable of Scotland. Avice died in 1191.

This Richard(Morevill) married Avice, daughter of William de Lancaster I, at whose death in 1170, Morevill promised Henry II 200 marks for a writ of right of the lands which he claimed in marriage with his said wife. (fn. 7) As this fine was recorded on the Lancashire Pipe Roll, it would appear that the lands which he claimed were in Lancashire or Lonsdale, rather than in Kentdale. Richard and Avice confirmed to the monks of Furness, lands in Selside in Ribblesdale and Newby, Yorks., the year before Avice's death which occurred in December, 1192.

1191. On the kalends of January [1 January] died Avicia the wife of Richard de Mereville, the constable of king William.
If she's born circa 1120 he's already given up on Poitou, his son/wife are ruling there -- for 10 or 15 years now -- and he's back in England? Having earlier been relieved of his holdings in England after the impossible siege at Argentan a generation earlier.
Is she a natural child? Did he go back to Lancashire and father her there; or bring her from La Marche? Could she be a decade older than we say here?
