Hugh d'Eu, Bishop of Lisieux, is not to be conflated with Hugh Talbot, Baron de Cleuville, who married Marie de Meulan.[2]

Hugues d'Eu, Bishop of Lisieux, is not the same person as Hugues Talbot, Baron de Cleuville. I have provided a Research Notes section with sourcing to show that Hugues Talbot married Marie de Meulan, and Hugues d'Eu did not.
