Millicent of Rethel was not the mother of William de Camville.

Millicent of Rethel was not the mother of William de Camville. As I understood it, the question was about the first descent as a replacement for the second. I have two observations. First, there is no way one would expect another generation in the Marmion descent. It would mean that William de Camville would be marrying the granddaughter of his step-brother. Second, while using a strict generational framework can sometimes lead to the wrong result, it can tell you if your reconstruction may be skewed. In this case, Isabel de Camville would be of the same generation as her half-brother William, and likewise of her Marmion half-brothers If William's wife Aubrey was of his generation, then she would be daughter of someone of the generation before his - of the generation of Millicent and not her child. I can't find any detailed study of the family but I find several references to Sir Robert Marmion (d.ca. 1181, son of Millicent) granting Llanstephan to his "uncle" Geoffrey, from whom it passed to Aubrey, wife of William de Camville. Thus it looks like no descent because Aubrey's line branches in the generation before the Rethel marriage. taf
