Humphrey I de Bohun (died c.1123), of Trowbridge Castle in Wiltshire, jure uxoris 3rd feudal baron of Trowbridge, was an Anglo-Norman nobleman who by his lucrative marriage became "the founder of the fortunes of his family", later prominent in England as Earls of Hereford and Earls of Essex. He is usually enumerated "Humphrey I" even though following his father he was the second "Humphrey de Bohun" settled in England. He has even been called Humphrey the Great.

    Dominus Hunfredus de Bohun, cum barba; qui primo venit cum Willielmo conquestore in Angliam de Normannia, cognatus dicti conquestoris, genuit dominum Hunfredum de Bohun secundum; qui fuit vocatus Hunfredus magnus, qui per voluntatem et praeceptum regis Willielmi Rous, filii dicti conquestoris, desponsavit Matildem filiam Edwardi de Salesbury; cum qua Matilda pater suus donavit dicto Hunfredo in liberum maritagium, omnia terras et tenementa sua quae fuerunt ex perquisitione dicti Edwardi; viz. Weston juxta Salesbury, et Walton, Newenton, Piryton, Stauntone, Trobrege, et unum messuagium in Salesbury juxta portam orientalem, et advocationem ecclesiae S. Crucis, quae est fundata supra portam antedictam, una cum uno prato extra Salesbury. Et Weston praedicta postea fuit data in escambium pro Wynelesford et Manyngford; et omnia alia terrae et tenementa, quae fuerunt de haereditate dicti Edwardi, remanebunt filio suo et haeredi, vocato Waltero Salesbury. De quibus Humfredus tertius de Bohun, et Matildis.
