The evidence that John "de Lacy" fitz Richard fitz Eustace married Alice de
Essex is found in the _Rotuli de dominabus ... [1185]_ [PRS 35:29-30]: Alicia
de Essex est de donatione Domini Regis, et est .lx. annorum, et est amita
comitis Willelmi, et soror comitis Albrici, et habet ij. filios milites, et
.j. filiam maritatam Johanni constabulario Cestrie.
[p. 30, n. 1] "For her tenure of Aynho under (her nephew) William (de
Mandeville) Earl of Essex, see _Geoffrey de Mandeville_, p. 390, where is
given the reference to his charter granting to her Aynho in free dower over
and above that given her by her husband (dominus) Roger Fitz Richard (of
Warkworth).... Her daughter married John (Fitz Eustace), Constable of
Chester, who died on crusade with Richard I in 1190, leaving a son, Roger de
Lacy, Constable of Chester." [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 2/17/1999]
William Farrer and J[ohn] Brownbill were editors of the Victoria County
History of Lancaster, v. 1 (London, 1906). They go into a detailed study of
the heirs of William fitz Nigel, the part of which holds our interest being on
pp. 298-305.
[p. 299] "In 1172 John, constable of Chester, founded the Cistercian abbey
of Stanlaw, in Cheshire.... He also founded the hospital of Castle
Donnington.... He married Alice, daughter of Robert de [p. 300:] Essex, by
Alice his wife, sister of Aubrey de Vere, earl of Oxford, and died at Tyre in
the Holy Land during a crusade in the year 1190. Roger, his son, having
succeeded him as constable of Chester .... The following year [1194] ...
Albreda settled the whole estate which had been Robert de Lacy's upon her
grandson, Roger, the constable, who thereupon assumed the name of Lacy and
became possessed of the honours of Clitheroe and Pontefract, in addition to
his own patrimony of Halton and Widnes.... [p. 302:] His death occurred on 1
October, 1211, after a protracted illness, during which he was invested with
the monastic habit in the abbey of Stanlaw, where his remains were buried."
