Research Notes:
The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Baldwinus filius Gisleb" for "terra Willi de Rullos cum filia Ric fratris sui" in Lincolnshire. “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”. The order of the names of the witnesses in this charter is curious. “Hervæo” was presumably the donor’s son by her second marriage. If that is correct, it is unclear why the name “Baldwino” follows, as other sources confirm that Baldwin was the donor’s son by her first marriage. Another curious point is that Baldwin’s name is not included in the family list in the Liber Vitæ of Thorney abbey: "…Gilebt fili[us] Ricardi, Ricard fili[us] eius…Aaliz uxor Gilbti filii Ricardi, Comes Gilbt, Galteri…filii sui…Rohais, Auiza, Margareta, Aaliz nate sue…"....
Lord of Bourne, Lincolnshire. A charter of King Edward III confirmed donations to Bourn Priory, among which donations by “Baldevinus filius Gisleberti” with the consent of “filio meo Rogero et uxore mea Adhelina”. 1
