GENERATION 1 (after generation 2, assigned to Henry)

The Champernouns of Ilfracombe, Devonshire preceed the Modbury branch and herein 
provide the two generations before Sir Richard de Champernoun of Modbury who 
appeared as No. 1 in the Champernouns of Modbury. Unlike the Modbury family, where 
Champernoun seemed to be the preferred spelling, I have herein applied the most 
used forms of the name for each individual as found in original records. Sources are 
noted throughout.

1. OLIVER de CAMPO ERNULFI (ERNULPHI). Dead by 1242/3 when his heirs are 
reported to be in possession of his lands in Ilfracombe, Burch, and Southcott, 
Devonshire (The Book of Fees, 2: 778, 784).
He was married to Wymarca, living in 1238. She had a suit in 1232 regarding land in 
Gillescot, Devonshire (Curia Regis Rolls, 14: 428).

Pole's Devon (p. 157) calls him a knight, but there is no evidence of this. Vivian (p. 
160) states he married Eva, "da. of ..., cognata et coheses Isolda filia et coheridis 
Andrea, Baronis de Cardigan," that is, a relative and coheiress of Isolda, daughter and 
coheiress of Andrea, baroness of Cardinham. But this is not correct as Vivian has 
confused this Oliver with a distant cousin who was the son of Jordan de Campo 
Arnulphi and Emma de Soligny, sister of Isolda, wife of Andrew de Cardinham (CIPM, 
4: no. 82).

Children (De Banco Plea Rolls, Trinity 17 Edw. 3, m. 42):

2. Sir Henry de Campo Arnulphi, m. Dionisia English.

Note: Vivian (p. 180) also names a daughter, Elizabeth, wife of William Gilbert, but 
also shows her as daughter of a much later Oliver Champernoun and his wife Eglina de 
Valletort. The latter relationship is the correct one.
