Notes |
- Cokayne's "Complete Peerage" (Buckingham, p.387). He had a son, another Walter Giffard, who d.s.p. 1164. His dau. ROHESE was his heiress and brought the Giffard estates into the Clare family upon her marriage. For a more detailed account of the Battle of Mortremer, in which Walter was one of the leaders, see the notes on HUGH DE GOURNAY III (RIN 6715). Sandy McDougall posted to the soc.genealogy.medieval on1 Jul 1996: Subject: WALTER GIFFARD-BUCKINGHAM WALTER GIFFARD of Longueville in Normandy (where he held a substantial fief) was with the Conqueror at Hastings and received from him a large fief in England, mainly in Buckingham, but of this there is no proof (he is recorded in Domesday as holding one of a group of ten fiefs aggregating L5,000 per annum. Orderic II. 49 says "Walter Giffard was given the Earldom of Buckinghamshire by the Conqueror." The relative dates in Orderic's record, if these be properly placed, are 1071-1080, which would be within the lifetime of Walter I. When Orderic wrote of this period Walter Giffard II was an Earl, and the original grant may have been antedated by the annalist). He is said to have died late in the Conqueror's reign, leaving a son and heir Walter II.
