DE MAULE, Robert ¹

   User ID: K650.

  General Notes:

" .... in the reign of Henry I., Robert and Stephen de Maule are mentioned as giving a benefaction to the restored Abbey of St. Hilda, Whitby, of the church of Hatun in Cleveland, with its pertinents the chapel of Newton of Thorpe, and Hatun Parva. Whether these Maules were sons of Peter, Lord of Maule, has not been ascertained ; they do not occur among the names of his children mentioned by Ordericus. But Robert is believed to have come to Scotland with the other Normans who accompanied David I. there. His name is mentioned in a charter by Henry, Earl of Northumberland, David's eldest son, granting lands in Northumberland to Eustace Fitzjohn. It is more likely that he was the grandson and not the son of Peter, Lord of Maule. He is believed to have had at least two sons :

1. William. 2. Roger."
