1Frances A. Underhill, For Her Good Estate: The Life of Elizabeth de Burgh (St. Martin's Press, New York, 1999), 5.
"[The] Earl Gilbert de Clare of Gloucester, belonged to a family who had come to England with William the Conqueror and had increased its lands and importance over the centuries. Gilbert came into his lands in England, Wales, and Ireland in 1263-64 and was the 'single most powerful magnate in the realm' until his death in 1295. He was a colorful man, not only because of his bright red hair but because of his personal animosities and prompt martial responses to territorial infringements. Some English families with lands in the Welsh March, the area along the English-Welsh border, had slowly penetrated parts of Wales on their own initiative without significant royal backing, so their descendants claimed a freedom of action lacking in their English holdings. The 'Red Earl' exploited his position as a Marcher lord to increase his holdings there, to quarrel with other Marcher families and to test the limits of Marcher independence from royal intervention. Gilbert defied the Crown on several occasions to defend Marcher privileges, but lessened his impact by wielding his great power without a well-developed focus."2Frederick Lewis Weis, Magna Carta Sureties, 1215, (Genealogical Publishing Co. 5th ed. 1999), line 28-4.

9980303. Joan of Acre Princess of England, Countess of Gloucester & Hereford
1Frances A. Underhill, For Her Good Estate: The Life of Elizabeth de Burgh (St. Martin's Press, New York, 1999), 6.
"Joan and Gilbert both possessed a strong sense of independence. The earl continued his periodic defiance of the king after marriage; Joan has been described as 'the most spirited and independent of all Edward I's children.' The newlyweds manifested their lack of submissiveness to king and queen by leaving court to honeymoon at Tonbridge Castle. Her parents promptly confiscated her bridal finery as punishment, but the couple returned only at their pleasure. The quarrel ended and, at the family level, relations between the royal couple and the earl and countess appear to have been amicable. Still the king did not hesitate to imprison Gilbert briefly in 1291-92, nor to seize his lands in 1295...."2Frederick Lewis Weis, Ancestral Roots of Certain American Colonists (Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore, MD, 7th Ed, 1999), 8-29.

Eva continued to hold Braose lands and castles in her own right after the death of her husband. Dugdale mentions her as holder of Totnes in 1230. It is recorded in the Close Rolls (1234-7) that Henry III granted 12 marks to her to strengthen the castle at Hay. Father: William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, Earl Marshal and Regent of England during the minority of Henry III. He died in May 1219 and is buried in the Temple Church, London. Mother: Isabel de Clare Married to William de Braose d.1230 Child 1: Isabella
"After Llewelyn Fawr (Llewelyn ap Iorworth) had hanged Eva's husband, William, he wrote letters (see translations) to her and her brother, William, Earl of Pembroke. He was enquiring whether the marriage between his son, Dafydd, and Isabella de Braose should still go ahead. Evidently they agreed that it should. Nevertheless Llewelyn and Dafydd were never satisfied with the distribution of William's lands among his four heiresses and this led to further armed conflicts in the marches.
