1.Richard FitzGilbert, styled (from his possessions) "de
Bienfaite", "De Clare", and "de Tonbridge". Lord of Bienfaite,
Orbec in Normandy; Clare & Tonbridge in England. Regent of
England jointly with William de Warenne during the Conqueror's
absence in 1075. King William granted him one of the largest
fiefs in the territorial settlement. The lordship centered on
Clare, Suffolk, which had been an important stronghold in
Anglo-Saxon times. The bulk of Richard's estates lay in
Suffolk, Essex, Surrey, and Kent, but comprised holdings in
other counties in the southern and eastern parts of the kingdom
as well. In addition, William (King) arranged for his marriage
with Rohese, sister of Walter Giffard, later earl of Buckingham,
and her dowry, consisting of lands in Huntingdon and Hertford,
became absorbed in the family inheritance."De Tonbridge", Lord
Bienfaite.
The Complete Peerage : Volume III pages 242-247. The title/name
continues on other pages but then covers different families. It
starts with CLARE (honour of)
Observations _ In the Heptarchy the border fortress of Clare
(Suffolk), on the confines of the Kingdoms of East Anglia and
Essex, was of the greatest importance, and continued to be so
for many centuries afterwards, when it was granted by the
Conqueror to Richard FitzGilbert. FitzGilbert's successors, the
earlier Lords of Clare were, "it is implied in the Lords'
Reports (vol.iii p.124) and elsewhere, styled Earls of Clare
before they were Earls of Hertford, but investigation disproves
this", (footnote refers ti 'an able artice by J.Horace Round)
though doubtless, these Lords, after they obtained that Earldom,
were, according to the usage of that period, frequently styled
"Earls of Clare" just as the Earls of Derby were styled "Earls
Ferrers," etc. On account of the great importance of these
feudal barons, the earlier Lords of Clare, so frequently
considered to have been actual Peers, a short account of them is
subjoined, as under. Then it gives (in squares, indicating they
were not official title holders) the generations.
