Notes:

Humphrey was Steward and Sewer to King Henry I. This feudal lord married Margery, daughter of Milo de Gloucester, Earl of Hereford, Lord High Constable of England, last Lord Hereford of that family. She was co-heir with her sister Mabel. At the instigation of which Milo he espoused the cause of the Empress Maud and her son, afterwards Henry II, against the King Stephen, and so faithfully maintained his allegiance that the Empress, by her especial charter, granted him the office of steward and sewer, both in Normandy and England. In the 20th of Henry II this Humphrey accompanied Richard de Lacy, Justice of England, into Scotland with a powerful army to waste that country, and was one of the witnesses to the accord made by William, King of Scots, and King Henry as to the subjection of that kingdom to the crown of England.

Humphrey, third Baron de Bohon (1109-87) succeeded his father Humphrey the great in 1129 and became involved in the struggle for the throne of England on the death of Henry I in 1134. When King Henry II became king, Sir Humphrey became Steward of Henry II's household and was later named hereditary Constable of England, a position previously held by his father-in-law and then by his brother-in-law. Humphrey, in 1138, had married Margaret, daughter of Miles of Gloucester, Earl of Hereford and High Constable of England. When Miles sons died heirless, Henry II gave the title of High Constable to Miles' son-in-law, Humphrey, 3rd Baron de Bohon. Humphrey and Margaret of Gloucester had five sons, Humphrey, Richard, John, Miles and Robert.

King Henry II (1154-89) had many difficulties during his reign, including numerous revolts led by his sons. Humphrey (1109-87) the third Baron de Bohon, and his eldest son, Sir Humphrey (1141-83) usually known as the Young Earl of Hereford, remained loyal to Henry II throughout his reign. Sir John de Bohon, the third son, was a very close friend and supporter of Henry II's 4th son Geoffrey as long as Geoffrey lived. Sir Robert de Bohon, the youngest son, was a very close friend of Prince Henry; Henry II's second son and heir.

Sir Robert le Bon died in 1183, four years before his father Baron Humphrey de Bohon's death. Consequently, when Humphrey the third Baron died in 1187, he was succeeded by his 12 year old grandson, Henry (1176-1220) as fourth Baron de Bohon. Upon coming of age, Henry was knighted and made High Constable of England and held manor houses and castles at Caldicot, Haresfield, Oaksey and Walden in addition to the main Hereford holdings.

Notes:

Humphrey was Earl Hereford and Constable of England in right of his mother, if the chronicles of Lathony be correct. His lordship married Margaret of Scotland (daughter of Henry, Earl of Huntingdon, and Ada de Warren; son of David I, King of Scotland, and Maud; daughter of Waltheof and Judith; daughter of Adelaide; sister of William, the Conqueror). David I of Scotland was son of Malcolm III, King of Scotland, and Margaret, princess and heiress of the Saxon royal line. Thus bringing into the de Bohun family the royal English, Saxon, Scottish, French and Dukes of Normandy.

Upon the death of Milo deGlos in 1146, this Humphrey IV assumed the title of Earl of Hereford, but died before his father, hence was never confirmed in it. The hereditary right descended to his son.

He was the Earl of Hereford.

Humphrey married in France. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

When Prince Henry revolted against his father in 1173, Sir Robert de Bohon was one of his associates. In the next year, the situation became critical when Prince Henry persuaded William, the Lion King of Scotland, to join him in war against his father in return for the promise of Northumberland, the northernmost Shire of England. Humphrey, third baron de Bohon, led the English King's army, which met and repulsed the rebels at Fordham in Suffolk in 1173, and along with Sir Richard de Lacy, met the forces of Scotland and Prince Henry on July 13, 1174. The battle ended in the complete rout of the rebellious forces. King William was captured and imprisoned. Sir Robert de Bohon fled to Scotland and Prince Henry was forgiven. King William's sister, Princess Margaret of Scotland and the widow of Conan IV of Bretagne, Earl of Richmond, (d. 1170), was married to Humphrey de Bohon, the young Earl of Hereford was who heir of the third Baron de Bohon.

Sir Robert le Bon died in 1183, four years before his father Baron Humphrey de Bohon's death. Consequently, when Humphrey the third Baron died in 1187, he was succeeded by his 12 year old grandson, Henry (1176-1220) as fourth Baron de Bohon. Upon coming of age, Henry was knighted and made High Constable of England and held manor houses and castles at Caldicot, Haresfield, Oaksey and Walden in addition to the main Hereford holdings.

A number of months after Sir Robert de Bohon fled to Scotland, King William signed the humiliating Treaty of Folaise and was released from his prison in Normandy. Upon returning to Scotland, he awarded some of his followers including Sir Robert de Bohon, some land south of Glasgow. Sir Robert spent little time on his land as he was with Prince Henry who had been forgiven by King Henry II. Unfortunately for Sir Robert de Bohon, young Henry the crown prince, died six years before his father. Sir Robert was with him at Martel in Aquitaine on June 11, 1183 when it happened.

As far as it is known, Sir Robert de Bohon never returned to England but lived out his life (d. after 1210) on his Scottish land and became a highly respected manorial lord. Legend has it that he was called "le Bon" ( the good). His son and heir had similar characteristics so that he too was known as Sir Richard "le Bon" de Bon.
