Dear Newsgroup, Searching archives of this group, trying to confirm whether the Eustace mentioned above was a son of Bernard II or not, I found one older post (by Alex Maxwell Findlater) stating that Eustace seigneur de Hélincourt was a cousin, not a son of Bernard II (which is in line with the ODNB, 2004), making him a son of a Hugh de Helicourt (d ca. 1181). (BTW, this is also shown in Wikipedia...not the best source for this issues). My question is, was his father a Baliol or was he a Helicourt married to a Baliol daughter? The question seems unresolved in many sources, so I am at a loss here. Most sources (secondary ones) ignore this parentage, making Eustace a son of Bernard II. Has any recent development shed light on this issue? Your insights, as always, are much appreciated. Thanks and best regards.
