Research Notes:
of Dudley (in Sedgley), Staffordshire [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v4p673]

before 1220: heir to his elder brother Ralph [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v4p673]

inherited Barony of Dudley from brother [Ref: Sanders Baronies p113]
heir of his brother [Ref: CP XII/1 p111]

In a charter for the priory of Grace Dieu, at Belton, Leicestershire, which she had founded, Rohese made provision for the souls of her husbands, although no husbands except Theobald have hitherto been identified [Dugdale, Monasticon Anglicanum, vol.6, p.567 (Caley's edn, 1817-30); the charter was confirmed by the king, 10 December 1241 (Cal. Charter Rolls, vol.1, p.265)].
It seems clear that Rohese had previously married William Perceval de Somery, from the terms of two orders concerning the custody of William's heir. On 20 June 1222 the king notified Nicholas de Verdun that he had granted custody of the land and heir of William de Sumeri, with the marriage of the heir, to the earl of Chester, and ordered Nicholas to deliver the daughter [apparently an error for "son", either in the original, or the published transcript] and heir to the earl without delay [Rot. Lit. Claus., vol.1, p.500, col.b]. On 27 January 1222/3 the king ordered Nicholas de Verdun and Rohese, his daughter, to deliver without delay the son and heir of William Perceval of Sumery to the earl of Chester [Rot. Lit. Claus., vol.1, p.531]. Rohese's inclusion in this order is explicable only if she is William's widow, and the mother of his heir, who seems to have been named after her father Nicholas.
