- Who is William Gamage born 1130? May 26, 2023.
Hi PE! I'm working on the profile of the William attached as son of this William & if I'm reading everything right, I think he might be the grandfather, not the father. I think the father is the Godfrey de Gamiches who died in 1176 (who might soon be represented by Gamage-15 - see comments on Gamage-39). Would it be ok if for now I detached this profile as father of William (Gamage) de Gamage (abt.1165-1240), with the intent of replacing that William's father with a profile for Godfrey died 1176, who would then be attached as son of this William?
Let me know if you have objections to that plan. And Thanks!

[Book of Fees, page 270 ] This same entry is of interest as it records that Godfrey II Gamage who held Mansell Gamage in the hundred of Grimeworth, co. Hereford, as a tenant of Walter de Lacy, and was the father of two sons, Mathew and William. Godfrey and Mathew remained in Normandy and swore allegiance to the French king following the separation of Normandy and England in 1204. This enabled Godfrey to hold their lands in France whilst their English lands were confiscated. However Godfrey had ceded Mansell [along with other lands held in England] to his younger son William, who swore allegiance to the English king.
