General Notes:
"William de Maule.
Under the designation of William Masculus he witnessed, about 1141, the confirmation of a charter by Earl Henry to the church of St. Mary of Haddington, and in that year he was also witness, at Jedburgh, to a grant by the same Earl to the church of the Holy Trinity of Tiron in France, as well as to another, granted after 1147, to the church of St. John in the Castle of Roxburgh, dated at Traquair. He is said to have accompanied David I. to the battle of the Standard in 1138. He is found in possession of the lands of Foulis, and, between 1162 and 1186, granted to his nephew, Thomas the cleric, the church and church lands of Foulis, by a charter which is witnessed by another nephew, Richard, and also by Michael Maule. William de Maule had two daughters but left no male issue :
1. Christian, married to Roger de Mortimer, who got grants from King William the Lion of the lands of Foulis, which formerly belonged to his father-in-law, and two tofts in Selkirk and Clackmannan, which King Malcolm, the King's brother, had granted to William Maule.
2. Cecilia, married to Walter de Ruthven. Her grandson, Sir Gilbert de Ruthven, renounced in 1262 all rights in the lands of Foulis competent to him through her.
The elder brother having had only female issue, the line of the family was carried on by his younger brother, Roger de Maule"
