Greetings, I am curious if there is an authoritative pedigree of the "de Rie" family? I have seen multiple references and narratives regarding Eudo Dapifer, his brothers and his father Hubert I "de Rie". However, I have not seen any authoritative evidence of a pedigree beyond Hubert. I would be appreciative of any insight into whether this has been documented, or otherwise sensibly conjectured. Many thanks. Cheers, Pete

Many thanks. The most thorough study I know of is 'Les seigneurs de Ryes en Bessin: études historiques' by Romain-Auguste-Laurent Pezet, originally published in *Mémoires de la Société d'agriculture, sciences, arts et belles-lettres de Bayeux* 8 (1879) 81-196 (http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k433567m/f106), and reprinted in the series Monographies des villes et villages de France (Paris, 2012). I should have remembered to check this when I was looking for a collateral relationship as suggested by Round - it turns out that Eudo's brother Radulf did have male heirs of his own, so what I had thought a limited possibility is in fact a dead end.
