Research Notes:
Extracts from the 12th-century & later obituary of Durham cathedral in which this entry occurs were printed in a rather less "obscure" book than Rud's catalogue of Durham cathedral manuscripts - see _Liber vitae ecclesiae Dunelmensis nec non obituaria duo ejusdem ecclesiae_ edited by Joseph Stevenson for the Surtees Society (London, 1841), page 140.
The source is discussed by Michael Gullick in 'The Scribes of the Durham Cantor's Book ... and the Durham Martyrology Scribe' in _Anglo-Norman Durham_, edited by David Rollason & others (Woodbridge, 1994) 93-110.
The "pancarte of Grestain" in question, a charter of William I, is known only from 17th and 18th century copies and in some respects contradicts a confirmation by Richard I of the same & later gifts to Grestain, dated 1189, which says that Mathilde herself gave property she had been given by her father Roger de Montgomery ("Ex dono Mathildis, comitisse Moreton. ... xxxii hidas terrae quae dederat ei pater suus Rogerus de Monte Gomerico") rather than that he gave the same after her death ("Rogerius comes de Monegomerico dedit in Anglia Mathildi sue filie comitisse Moritoniensi triginta et duas hydrias terre ... Post mortem vero eius dedit supradictus comes Domino et sancte Marie Grestensi easdem trigenta et duas hydrias").
The year 1082 quoted above from the assertion of one secondary source citing another is somewhat misleading: dates are not given for specific donations and, since the document of William I might have been written as early as 24 June 1082, if Mathilde died on a 21 September for all this proves it might have been in 1081 or before.
The pancarte of William I was issued before the arrest of his half-brother Odo, bishop of Bayeux who subscribed it. Bates & Gazeau in their 1990 article assumed that Odo was arrested in the autumn of 1082, but this is not certain as it could have taken place early in the winter of 1082/83.
This makes little difference to the point at issue, since my earlier post was misleading and as it turns out the terminus post quem of 24 June 1082 is actually the last date on which Countess Mathilde of Mortain, who had died before her father's donation recorded in the pancarte, is known to have been living. On this date she subscribed another charter of William I, confirming donations of Robert and herself to Marmoutier ("Rotbertus frater eius [Willelmi] comes Morethoniensis et Mathildis uxor eius dederunt Deo et sancto Martino Maioris Monasterii ... S. Rotberti comitis Moritonii. S. Mathildis comitisse ... Anno ab incarnatione Domini MLXXXII ... Hec carta apud Oscellum firmata fuit die Natalis sancti Baptiste Johannis.")
Consequently, from the available evidence, she died on 21 September 1082. [Ref: Peter Stewart SGM 9/30/2011-183436]
