William's Wife

Cawley gives William's wife as Bertha de Briouse, noting that he has not located a primary source to support this, but is basing this on an assertion in Domesday Descendants.

John P. Ravillious, in a series of 2010 posts to soc.genealogy.medieval, argued that William's wife was Avicia. (He quotes a charter mentioning Avicia as the wife of a William de Beauchamp, and the mother of another William de Beauchamp.) He makes Bertha de Braose the wife of this William's son, also named William, and argues that she was a generation younger than the Bertha given as William's wife on this page. (He bases this on the charter, which he feels shows that Avicia is this William's wife, and on an IPM from 1305 which refers to the William de Beauchamp who was the husband of Berta, daughter of William de Brewose, as the great grandfather of William, earl of Warwick, which would make him the son of the William of this page. Cawley, on the other hand, notes that the introduction to the Beauchamp Cartulary states that the jurors were in error about this relationship. A more specific argument regarding the generation in which to place Bertha is in is given on Bertha's page.)
