Biography

First heir Robert died without issue 1167. Heir was then Robert's nephew Walter, who died 1190. ^[1]

"Several early documents show that a certain Adeliza de Insula, without doubt the daughter and heiress of Hunfridus, conveyed this string of manors by marriage to her husband Reginald de Dunstanville, in the reign of Henry I., and by him or by his son of the same name it is probable that the Castle of Combe was built about the same time, that lordship in consequence becoming, as usual, the "Caput" or chief seat of the barony." ^[2]
