Research Notes:
I noted your post questioning the 'traditional' assignment of the issue of Richard de Camville "I" to his 2nd wife, Millicent (or Melisende) de Rethel. Most researchers (myself included) have left all the children as being by Millicent, but I think you are quite correct in questioning this, and the end result likely will be separating a number of English descendants of the Camvilles from this long-accepted link to Carolingian ancestry.
As to Richard's son Richard "II" de Camville, the earliest mention I find is in a charter of 'Ricardus de Camvilla' when he granted a third part of the 'dimes' of his lands at Hautot-l'Auvray to Jumieges priory, the charter being dated at Arques, 1170 ("du 5 avril au 27 mars 1171"). Richard's son, Richard "II", was the 3rd witness.
'Sciant presentes et posteri quod ego Ricardus de Camvilla, assensu heredum meorum, dedi Deo et sancta Marie sanctoque Petro et monachis Gemmeticensibus in elemosinam terciam partem decimarum que sunt in terra mea apud Hottoth (2) et in finibus ejusdem ville, pro salute anime mee et uxoris mee Adelicie et sequentis uxoris mee Milesente, patris et matris mee et Rogeri fratris mei et aliorum predecessorum meorum, perpetuo possidendam. Quam donationem cum duabus partibus ejusdem decime quas ab antiquo ex largitione predecessorum meorum predicta ecclesia cum ecclesia ejusdem ville possederat, sigilli mei impressione munivi et subscriptorum virorum testimonio corroboravi : Rogeri, capellani mei ; Hunfredi, clerici mei ; Ricardi, filii mei : Gisleberti de Cantelu ; Roberti de Coldreto ; Hugonis de Barrevilla ; Osberni de Odemara; Ricardi Hachet ; Willelmi de Barrevilla; Stephani de Chevremont. Actum apud Archas (1), anno ab incarnatione Domini. M. C. septuagesimo. Amen. ' [Chart. Jumieges, II:1-2, no. CI7, cites '(Arch. de la Seine- Inferieure, fonds de Jumieges, serie H non classee). ? B. Copie du commencement du \1u< s., dans le Cartulaire A, p. 198, n. 336 (Ibidem). Mentionne dans : Histoire de l'abbaye royale de Saint-Pierre de Jumieges (e.iit. abbe J. Loth), I, 278. ']

This charter serves to provide chronological context as to Richard "II" de Camville being alive and acting as a witness in 1170, but does not prove his maternity. This is in fact proved by a charter cited in Sir Christopher Hatton's Book of Seals. " Ricardus de Camuill' " granted a charter to Richard Pipard restoring his lands in Stanton Harcourt, co. Oxon. which his (Pipard's) grandfather Sir Leger had held by the gift of Richard de Camville and Milicent his wife, dated at Stanton (est. 1176-1191, but probably before 1176) [Loyd, Book of Seals, p. 29, No. 428].
I had long ago assigned this charter to Richard "I", but your post prompted me to review the actual text. The grant was made to Richard Pipard (brother of Robert) of 'all the land which Sir Leger, their grandfather, held on the day he died in my manor of Stanton of the gift of Richard de Camuill' my father and Milecent' my mother' ["totam terram quam Ligerus miles auus eorundem tenuit die qua obit in manerio meo de Stanton' donatione Ricardi de Camuill' patris mei et Milecent' matris Mee..."] [Loyd, Book of Seals, p. 29, No. 428].
Thus we have proof that (1) Richard "II" de Camville was the son of Millicent de Rethel, and (2) that he held lands in Stanton (Harcourt), Oxon. It may be that his sister Isabel's maritagium was held of her brother Richard; presumably the lordship passed to the Harcourts following Richard "II" de Camville's death, but this requires further research.
