named in the Magna Charta [Ref: Weis AR7 #38, Weis MC #139]
c1205 (between Jan 1202 and 1 Oct 1211): Alan lord of Galloway, constable of
Scotland, quitclaims to Roger de Lacy, constable of Chester, and his heirs the
advowson of the church of Kippax [Yorkshire, West Riding] [Ref: Stringer
LordsofGalloway p224]
1214: involved against Edmund de Lacy's father, John de warantia carte
de terra de Kippes, his specific claim being that "John should warrant the
charters of his father Roger, which Alan ... has concerning the maritagium of
his sister." [Ref: Stringer AlanGalloway p51]
1215-1234: Constable of Scotland [Ref: Weis AR7 #38, Weis MC #139]
Curia Regis Rolls, vii (London, 1935) speaks of John's father as "Richard",
but (as Bain indicated in Cal. Docts. Scot., i, no 596) the name should be
"Roger". Also, John's style is abbreviated to "John of Chester" - he had
succeeded his father as constable of Chester whenhe came of age in 1213 [Ref:
Stringer AlanGalloway p51(10)]
it would appear that Roger de Lacy, before his death in 1211, gave the
property of Kippax to Alan in marriage with a Pontegract Lacy, whose precise
identity is uncertain because of the ambiguity of the source [Ref: Stringer
AlanGalloway p52]
The Lacy identity of Alan of Galloway's first wife was proposed by Stringer in
1972 (Dumfries & Galloway NHAS Transactions Vol XLIX). The evidence adduced
by Stringer is sixfold:
1 In 1254 Roger de Quincy granted Kippax to Edmund de Lacy. Quincy was the
husband of Alan's eldest daughter Helen, who we know was not a daughter by
Margaret of Huntingdon as Helen was not an heir to Earl John, Margaret's
brother, and who we know inherited the Constableship of Scotland, and so was
an elder half sister of Dervorguilla.
2 In ca 1223 Alan ordered his bailiff to take possession, apparently as an
escheat, of Swillington, which pertained to Kippax.
3 The Curia Regis Rolls of 1214 show Alan acting against John de Lacy
(father of Edmund) "de warantia carte de terra de Kippes". Stringer quotes in
English that " John de Chester shall warrant the charters of his father
Richard (per Stringer recte Roger) which Alan ... has concerning the
maritagium of his sister (the "his" is not specific between father and son and
Stringer says "sister or dau of Roger de Lacy, constable of Chester")
4 A letter of Pope Honorius III of March 1222 states that Alan had married
within the prohibited degrees of consanguinuity. His later wife was the
daughter of Hugh de Lacy, Earl of Ulster (of the Weobley Lacys), so an earlier
Lacy wife (of the Pontefract Lacys) would fit the bill.
5 Stringer also suggests that there would not appear to be a suitable
earlier marriage in Alan's pedigree to allow for him and his descendants to
hold Kippax.
6 He also refers to the Close Rolls 1242-47, apparently showing, but without
quotation, that Helen of Galloway's maritagium was in the Honour of
Pontefract. [Ref: Alex Findlater SGM 9/28/2005-163046]
Following the granting of the manor of Kippax, Yorkshire to Alan Fitz Roland
in marriage with the sister of Roger de Lacy [WTM: this opinion changed over
the next several days of GEN-MEDIEVAL discussion], the manor passed by
inheritance to Alan Fitz Roland's daughter, Ellen, and her husband, Sir Roger
de Quincy. In 1233 there was a dispute about the advowson of Kippax,
Yorkshire which involved Pontefract Priory, Roger de Quincy and his wife's
nephew, John de Lacy, Earl of Lincoln. Here are brief extracts of the two
pertinent documents:
Document #1. Date: 1233. "To the reverand father in Christ, and very dear
lord, W[alter], by the grace of God, archbishop of York, and primate of
England, John de Lascy, earl of Lincoln and constable of Chester, greeting in
the Lord ... We make known to your fatherhood that having seen the deeds and
charters of my father, Roger de Lascy, and of my ancestors, piously granted by
those ancestors to God and St. John the Evangelist of Pontefract, and to my
monks there serving God, concerning the church of Kippax, the truth has been
shown itself to be other than we believed ... we have remitted to them for
ever all the right and claim that we claimed to have in the said church of
Kippax ..." [Reference: Richard Holmes, ed. The Chartulary of St. John of
Pontefract (Yorkshire Arch. Soc. Record Series 25) (1899): 39-40].
Document #2. Date: 1233. To all, &c. ... W[alter] ..., archbishop of York,
&c. Know that whereas the contention raised between our dear sons, the prior
and convent of Pontefract, on the one part, and the noble man, Roger de
Quenci, on the other, concerning the last presentation of the church of
Kippax, has been ended by the judgement of the court of the lord king, we at
the presentation of the said prior and convent who recovered possesion of the
patrongae of the said church, as the lord Henry, the illustrious king of
England, has signified to us by his letter .." [Reference: Richard Holmes, ed.
The Chartulary of St. John of Pontefract (Yorkshire Arch. Soc. Record Series
25) (1899): 74-75]. [Ref: Douglas Richardson SGM 9/26/2005-230226]
The 1214 lawsuit from the Curia Regis Rolls is the only source that I know of
that indicates the identity of Alan Fitz Roland's first wife. Michael Miller
has kindly provided us a full translation of that text.
The defendant in this case appears to have been John de Lacy (died 1240),
later Earl of Lincoln, as we find elsewhere that he was known as John of
Chester in 1214, and also that he was subsequently dealing with the advowson
of Kippax, Yorkshire in 1233. As best I understand it, the manor and advowson
of Kippax were granted in marriage to Alan Fitz Roland on his marriage to his
first wife. It was this property that was the subject of the 1214 lawsuit.
So, we have the right people and the right property matched to each other.
As you are aware, the manor of Kippax, Yorkshire subsequently descended to
Alan Fitz Roland's daughter, Ellen, and her husband, Roger de Quincy, 2nd Earl
of Winchester. That Roger de Quincy thought he and his wife had the right to
the advowson of Kippax is clear from two documents, one dated 1233 which
implies Roger had recently claimed the right to present to Kippax, and the
other, Roger's own charter dated c. 1254 in which he conveyed the manor and
advowson of Kippax back to John de Lacy's son and heir, Edmund de Lacy, Earl
of Lincoln (see Christopher Hatton's Book of Seals, pg. 288-289).
Insofar as the 1214 lawsuit itself is concerned, the statement is made that
Alan Fitz Roland had Kippax in marriage with "his sister." In the previous
few words in the lawsuit, there are two men mentioned, namely John de Chester
and his father, "Richard." As best I understand the text, the words "his
sister" can refer to EITHER John de Chester's sister OR his father's sister.
[Ref: Douglas Richardson SGM 9/27/2005-173345]
If we accept that John de Chester in the 1214 lawsuit is John de Lacy (and I
do), then the only sensible conlusions that can be drawn are:
(1) The reference to John's father Roger being called Richard in the lawsuit
is a clerical error.
(2) The words "his sister" refer to Roger de Lacy's sister, not John de
Lacy's. [Ref: Douglas Richardson SGM 9/27/2005-173345]
Neither point advanced here is proof that the person wasn't John de Lacy's
cousin John de Chester. A modern editor's opinion and the sum of money
involved are hardly conclusive: but even if it can be established that John de
Lacy was still occasionally called "John de Chester" throughout his life, this
doesn't go any way to changing the name of his father from Roger to Richard,
or confirming the unnecessary amendment from one to the other that
Richardson's case depends upon. [Ref: Peter Stewart SGM 9/27/2005-183851]
Mar 1222: letter of Pope Honorius III notes that the pope had been
informed by James, his legate to Scotland and Ireland, and many Scottish
bishops that Alan of Galloway had married within the prohibited degrees of
consanguinity; wife in question does not appear to have been Margaret; the
Woebley alliance (said to have taken place in 1229) could be revised making it
several years earlier [Ref: Stringer AlanGalloway p52]

"William of Jonesby Alan of Camberton and Adam of Hocton, three knights of
the county of Cumberland, sent to Carlisle to see what attorney Elena de
Morvill wished to appoint in the hearing between herself and the Abbot of
Londores about the advowson of Wissenden in the county of Rutland and to see
what attorney the same Alan of Galloway wished to appoint in the hearing
between him and John of Chester about a warranty of the charter of the land of
Kippax in the county of York, say that Elena appointed in her place Adam of
Torinton or Hamon the clerk against the Abbot of Londor concerning the plea
about the church of Wissenden in the county of Rutland. And they say further
that Alan of Galloway appointed [in his place] the same Hamon the clerk or
Richard of Crevecour agianst John of Chester concerning the plea about a
warranty of a charter of the land of Kippax in the county of York. The said
knights were told to depart with no day fixed [for their further attendance].
And since William Percy the fourth knight, who ought to have testified with
them as to the attorneys of the said persons, did not come it was deemed that
he should be attached that he should [appear] on the day of Easter in three

Alan of Galloway held as the marriage portion of his sister. And he [sc. John]
