Some people have Robert as son of Adrian, but they have him born much earlier. I would place him as a younger son of Richard who was son of Adrian. Since Richard held Diss, Norfolk (as well as Dunmow and other lands in Essex), this fits with Robert his son being "of Norfolk". 1 _UID 565640C8-EE77-4C01-873C-BC201FE59958.

The following is excerpted from an e-mail, from Douglas Richardson, containing a post to SGM:

From: Doug Richardson [mailto:royalancestry AT msn.com]
Sent: Monday, August 29, 2005 9:00 AM
To: Jim Weber
Cc: Gordon Banks; Hal Bradley
Subject: Botetourt descent from Robert Fitz Harding

Dear Newsgroup ~

To date no one to my knowledge has identified Margery, wife of Otes Fitz William (Gen. 4 above). However, charter evidence has survived which conclusively proves that she was the daughter of Robert Fitz Harding (died 1171), merchant of Bristol, male line ancestor of the baronial Berkeley family [see Complete Peerage, 2 (1912): 124-125 (sub Berkeley)]. The three charters below are taken from thepublished cartulary of St. Mary Clerkenwell. The first charter is a grant dated ?1190/1206, in which Margaret specifically states she was the daughter of Robert Fitz Harding [Note: The names Margaretand Margery were fully interchangeable in this time period]. The second is a charter dated c. 1221/2, by Otes Fitz William (Gen. 6 above) who confirms the earlier grant of Margaret his grandmother ["aue mee"]. The third charter dated 1213/19 is a grant by Maurice de Gant, in which he refers to his aunt ["matertera mea'], Margaret, formerly wife of Otes Fitz William. This charter is important as Maurice de Gant's father, Robert Fitz Robert, is known to have been a younger son of Robert Fitz Harding, male line ancestor of the Berkeley family [see John Smyth, Lives of the Berkeleys, 1 (1883):20, 50-52, 65]. The third charter is also of great historic interest, as it is witnessed by three individuals, Robert Fitz Walter, Saier de Quincy, and Henry de Bohun, all of whom were Magna Carta barons.

Aethelwulf, also spelled ETHELWULF (d. 858), Anglo-Saxon king in England, the father of King Alfred the Great. As ruler of the West Saxons from 839 to 856, he allied his kingdom of Wessex with Merciaand thereby withstood invasions by Danish Vikings.

The son of the great West Saxon king Egbert (ruled 802-839), Aethelwulf ascended the throne four years after the Danes had begun large-scale raids on the English coast. In 851 he scored a major victory over a large Danish army at a place called Aclea in Surrey. Aethelwulf then married his daughter to the Mercian king Burgred (853), and in 856 he himself married the daughter of Charles II the Bald, king of the West Franks. Aethelwulf was deposed by a rival faction upon his return from a pilgrimage to Rome in 856, but he continued to rule Kent and several other eastern provinces until his death. In addition to Alfred the Great (ruled 871-899), three of Aethelwulf's other sons became kings of Wessex. [Encyclopaedia Britannica] 1 _UID BBE43DC4-404F-40D3-8F3C-F5D016D81772.
