Research Notes

Comment on profile as of 20 October 2023 without further discussion: "Some sources also cite a marriage to Bouchard de Montmorency, III de Seigneur (1064-1124), but no timing is given (and both were pretty well occupied with their existing families), nor issue stated."

The wikidata entry for "Alice de Clermont", daughter of Hugh, citing thepeerage.com, lists both Gilbert and Bouchard as her husbands (m Gilbert in 1083 & Bouchard in 1117), with Hervey, son of Bouchard,[7] born in 1130.[8]

Douglas Richardson's entry for Gilbert fitz Richard ("also styled de Clare"), lists his widow's marriage to Bouchard as before 1123 and that they had one son - Hervé de Montmorency.[9]

From his Dictionary of Irish Biography article:

"Montmorency, Hervey de (a. 1130\endash p. 1185), son of Bouchard de Montmorency and his wife Adeliza.... by 1169 had come to England and entered the service of his nephew Richard de Clare (qv) (Strongbow), earl of Strigoil."[8]

He was uncle of Isabel & Gilbert's son Richard by way of Adeliza (Alice) Clermont - mother of both Gilbert and Hervey.[9]

MEDLANDS: GILBERT de Clare "Strongbow", son of GILBERT FitzRichard de Clare & his wife Adelisa de Clermont (1100 [CP X 348] - 6 Jan 1148 or 1149, bur Tintern Abbey).

Guillaume de Jumièges names "Richardum qui ei successit et Gislebertum et Walterium et unam filiam...Rohais" as the children of "Gislebertus ex filia comitis de Claromonte".

The Liber Vitæ of Thorney abbey lists "…Gilebt fili[us] Ricardi, Ricard fili[us] eius…Aaliz uxor Gilbti filii Ricardi, Comes Gilbt, Galteri…filii sui…"

"Adeliz, uxor Gilberti filii Ricardi, et Gillebertus et Walterus et Baldewinus et Rohaisia pueri Gilberti" donated property to Thorney Monastery, by undated charter witnessed by "Gilberto filio Gilberti, Galterio, Hervæo, Baldwino fratribus eius et Rohaisia sorore eorum".

He inherited the estates of his paternal uncles Roger de Clare (after 1131, in the baronies of Bienfaite and Orbec, Normandy) and Walter de Clare (in 1138, as lord of Nether Gwent with the castle of Strigoil, later known as Chepstow). He was created Earl of Pembroke in 1138 by King Stephen. The Annales Cambriæ record the death in 1149 of "Gilbertus comes, qui Strangboga dictus est"[1444].
