    The label makes it appear that Cawley assigns a death year of 1057, however he doesn't source it. He assigns a death year of (approx.) 1057/1058 to his wife, who is referred to as his widow in a source, so it is possible that he intended to indicate that Guillaume died by 1057 rather than in 1057.

    Guillaume d'Eu (975/980 - un 2 janvier après 1015), fut comte d'Eu. Il est possible qu'il ait été comte d'Hiémois entre 996 et 1017 ou entre 1006 et 1017.
    Il est le fils illégitime du duc Richard Ier de Normandie4 et d’une frilla, c'est-à-dire une concubine aux yeux de l'église catholique.
