Research Notes:
thought by Clay (EYC) to be illegitimate, but decisive evidence is lacking [Ref: Raymond Phair SGM 8/9/1998]

contemporary with Lucy, second wife of Ivo Taillebois; Beatrice must have been the product of an earlier marriage of Ivo [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p283 (with corr in DD p4)]

Original text deleted in corrections: none of the lands of Ivo passed to Beatrice. The reason is unknown, but does not necessarily mean that Beatrice was illegitimate or not the daughter of Lucy (originally in Keats-Rohan DP p283) [Ref: Keats-Rohan DP p283 (with corr in DD p4)]

Clay thought Beatrice was probably illegitimate, because none of Ivo's propety passed to Ribald with his wife Beatrice. Ivo's second wife Lucy was an important heiress whose inheritance formed the basis of the land Ivo held in Domesday Book. This fief, the honour of Bolingbroke, was inherited by the two sons of Lucy's subsequent marriages, whereas Ivo's own barony of Kendal, granted after 1086, went (possibly) to Ketel son of Eldred and then to Ketel's nephew William fitz Gilbert of Lancaster, surnamed Taillebois [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p1121]

In late twelfth century the writer Peter of Blois claimed that Ivo had had a sole daughter, 'nobly married' [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p1121]

defective genealogies in the Cockersand Cartulary and the Register of St Mary's, York, made William (fitz Gilbert of Lancaster) a descendant of Eldred and Ivo Taillebois, who must have been father of Eldred's wife [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p1121]

given that Ketel fitz Eldred, his nephew William of Lancaster, and Ralph fitz Ribald were all active abt 1120, just a few years before Ivo's widow buried her thirdhusband, one can conclude that Beatrice was a legitimate heir of Ivo by a wife previous to Lucy, who was Beatrice's contemporary, and that she was first the wife of the Englishman Eldred and subsequently the wife of Ribald [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p1121]
