Dr. Crouch gives source info for marriage between Nesta and

Legg inn av Gjest » 08 mar 2007 19:18:58

Hello group,

Several days ago I emailed Dr. David Crouch in reference to his
mention of the marrige of Nesta, sister of Iorwerth ap Owain of
Caerleon. He was kind enough to send me the following source
citations...I will do a copy and paste of his email reply here. I
hope everyone will be able to research these sources.

Hi Karen

The principal reference to the marriage is a published source: Annales
Dunelmenses' in, Durham Annals and Documents of the Thirteenth
Century, ed. F.
Barlow (Surtees Society, clv, 1945) pp. 1-2. Talking of Morgan Bloet,
bishop
elect of Durham, '... Henricus rex pater Iohannis regis genuerat eum
de uxore
cuiusdam militis Anglie dicti Radulfi Bloet.' (King Henry, the father
of King
John, engendered [Morgan] on the wife of a certain English knight,
Ralph
Bloet)

That the wife of Ralph was Nest ferch Iorwerth ab Owain is evident
from the
evidence of medieval Welsh genealogical records: see P.C. Bartrum,
Welsh
Genealogies, 400-1400 (8 vols, Aberystwyth, 1983), Rhydderch ap
Iestyn, no. 1,
which attests to her place in the Caerleon family. Nest wife of Ralph
Bloet
sought lands in Caerleon against Hywel son of Iorwerth (her brother)
Curia
Regis Rolls, i, pp 382, 393, 397.

There is an article on her in the Oxford Dictionary of National
Biography
(Oxford, 2004).

Hope that is of use.

David Crouch

Hi Karen,

Good work.

as we have discussed elsewhere it is worth pointing out that the DNB
article referred to by Dr. Crouch won't be much help with proving
sources, given he wrote it, but it is a very nice article on early
Bluets / Bloets / Blewetts etc and much more complete than in the
previous DNB edition.

I am still trying to track down a local copy of Curia Regis lol. If
anyone does manage to find them and can verify the details that would
be great........

Cheers

Tony Pratt
