Notes

1st Cousin (-1) of Adeliza of Louvain-wife of Henry I. [Curt Hofemann points out that 
they are full 2nd cousins. I didn't make the computation, but copied it from someone 
else who was as bad as I am at computing cousin relationships.)

-------------

Early in the 12th Century, Stanton was given by Henry I to his second wife, Queen 
Adeliza (or Adela). A large part of it she presented to a kinswomen, Millicent de 
Camville. From the latter it was inherited in 1191 by Isabel de Camville, and thus 
passed to her husband Richard de Harcourt, from whom it has come down through the 
Harcourt family to the present day and from which circumstance the Manor and the 
village itself became known as Stanton Harcourt. Queen Adeliza also gave land at 
Stanton to Reading Abbey, which remained patron of the parish church fill the 
Dissolution of the Monasteries. A close relationship with St Michael’s Church has been 
maintained by the Harcourts, and it contains the chapel under which members of the 
family have been buried since the 15th century.

He [Robert Marmion] married Milicent, daughter of Hugh, Count of Rethel. He died in 
1143 or 1144, being slain in warfare with the Earl of Chester. His widow married 
Richard DE CANVILLE or CAMVILLE. [Complete Peerage VIII:505-8, XIV:467]
