William de Braose, 3rd Lord of Bramber (fl. 1135–1179) was a 12th-century Marcher lord who secured a foundation for the dominant position later held by the Braose family in the Welsh Marches. In addition to the family's English holdings in Sussex and Devon, William had inherited Radnor and Builth, in Wales, from his father Philip. By his marriage he increased the Braose Welsh holdings to include Brecon and Abergavenny.

William remained loyal to King Stephen during the 12th-century period of civil war. He became a trusted royal servant during the subsequent reign of Henry II, accompanying the king on campaigns in France and Ireland. He served as sheriff of Herefordshire from 1173 until 1175. The family's power reached its peak under his son William during the reigns of kings Richard I and John.

  14.   There is no indication in any of the above quoted sources that there was a Giles or Roger belonging to this family. Also there is some doubt whether the above Reginald has been mistaken for the Reginald who married Grace de Briwere whois actually grandson of the above couple. In the case of child #1, Bertha, thereis also some quandry as to whether she belongs to this couple or to William, child #2, and whether she married William Beauchamp or Walter de Beauchamp. Thereare also some indications that this Bertha is the daughter of the above couplewho married Adam de Port. Because of the sealing action previously taken, theirnames will be left on this compilation until better evidence is made available.
