The following is excerpted from a post to SGM, 7 Sep 2002, by Rosie Bevan:

2.ROBERT II de Stuteville. Not believed to have held lands in England. A supporter of 
Robert Curthose with his father, he was captured at St.Pierre-sur-Dive shortly before 
the battle of Tinchebrai. He was married to Erneburga whose parentage is unknown.

Issue:
- Robert III of Cottingham. See below.
- William. Married to Emma, and held lands in West Yorkshire.
- Roger (sheriff of Northumberland from Easter 1170-Easter 1185, and castellan of 
Wark on Tweed)
- John of Long Lawford, Warwickshire. Married to Agnes possibly da. of Waleran son 
of Hugh and Matilda.
- Osmund of Weston Colville and Burton Agnes, Yorks. d. bef 1172. Succeeded by son 
Roger.
- NN (soror Robert de Stuteville) wife of Robert de Daville

Charters' v.8, p.2-5]

[And on the identification of Erneburga as daughter of Hugh FizBaldric, in a post 9 
Sep 2002:]]

Moriarty assumed Ernneburga was fitzBaldric's daughter because around 1087 some of 
Hugh FitzBaldric's lands found their way into Stuteville hands. Moriarty appears 
unaware that they had been confiscated and there is no evidence to support the 
assumption that Erneburga was Hugh's daughter. Other major landholders such as the 
Brus family received portions of fitz Baldric lands too. Hugh's known sons-in-law 
included Walter de Rivere and Guy de Craon. [K-R Domesday People,267-268].

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

Robert de Estoteville acquired a great inheritance with his wife, Eneburga, daughter 
and heir of Hugh, son of Baldrick, a great Saxon thane, and among other lands, had 
the lordship of Schypwyc, or Skipwic. He left three sons, Robert, Osmund, and 
Patrick. [John Burke & John Bernard Burke, Extinct and Dormant Baronetcies of 
England, Ireland, and Scotland, Second Edition, Scott, Webster, & Geary, London, 
1841, p. 486, Skipwith, of Newbold Hall]

Note: The above source has Patrick de Skipwith descending from this Robert. Burke's 
Peerage indicates that Patrick was a younger son of this Robert's son (also Robert).

FWIW, Vernon James Watney in "The Wallop Family, and their Ancestry", 1928 (LDS 
Film 1696491), p935 states he was "living 1138". Unfortunately this was in an early 
stage of my research when I did not record footnotes to know on what basis Watney 
derived the statement. I say FWIW, because Watney is like Burke's: caveat emptor.

Research note: Turton gives the mother of Robert De STUTEVILLE, Baron of 
Cottingham & John De STUTEVILLE as Blanche de RIEUX dau of Quesnoc de RIEUX 
(again: caveat emptor).

Regardez vous,

And, in a later post-em, Curt added:

Of this second Robert, Orderic speaks "as a brave and powerful baron, who was a 
strong partizan of the Duke" (Robert Court-heuse), "and superintended his troops and 
fortresses in the Pays de Caux." He also says (817) that d'Estouteville was slain 
fighting against Henry I. at Tinchebrai (1106), and not, as other authorities aver, sent 
over to England to suffer the doom of life-long captivity. In either case, the whole of 
his possessions-which apparently included Roger de Moubray's former barony-were 
forfeited, and granted to the King's favourite, Nigel de Albini. His wife Erneburga, a 
Yorkshire heiress, whose father, Hugh, the son of Baldric, had been a great Saxon 
thane, brought him three sons; Robert III.; Osmund, who died at Joppa in Palestine; 
and Patrick (omitted by Dugdale), to whom he gave the lordship of Skipwith in the 
East Riding. [Ref: Adrian Channing 6 Jan 2000 citing: "The Battle Abbey Roll" by the 
Duchess of Cleveland (1889) Vol ii pp 5-9] Note: some members of the SGM 
newsgroup question the accuracy of this source... Curt
