For clarity, I am pondering whether Ernulph II may have been the son of one of Ernulph I’s brothers. The only connection I have been able to identify (albeit not with exhaustive examination) among the purported children of Ernulph I involving Ernulph II is the following reference (indirectly confirming them as siblings?) in the ‘Curia Regis Rolls of the reigns of Richard I. and John, PRO’, Richard 1.-2 John, Vol. 1, (1922), published by HMSO, London, pp. 311 (c. 1200), which references both Ernulph II and Geoffrey III in connection with Huggate, Yorkshire. Again, I’m grateful for any insight, clarification or suggestions for further research. Thanks! Cheers, Pete On Tuesday, May 17, 2016 at 2:18:41 AM UTC-4, Peter G. M.

However, I'd be grateful if anyone could direct me to any historically conclusive evidence that Ernulph II de Mandeville was the son of Ernulph I de Mandeville, son of the 1st Earl of Essex. > > Cheers, > > Pete
