ROBERT MARMION, son and heir. All the land of Roger his grandfather and Robert 
his father was restored to him by Stephen. In 1155 he obtained from Henry ll a charter 
of freewarren in Warwickshire, especially at Tamworth, as his ancestors had had it in 
the time of Henry I, and after 1170 he had from King Henry-i.e. the eldest son of Henry 
II-a charter of free warren in all his land of Lindsey. In 1166 he was holding over 16 
knights' fees. He granted Avon and Ditchampton, Wilts, and the honour of 
Llanstephan, co. Carmarthen, which had belonged to Roger his grandfather, to his 
uncle Geoffrey, in exchange for the latter's right in Winteringliam and Scrivelsby, co. 
Lincoln, and in the fee of Manasser Marmion. He granted the church of Checkenden, 
co. Oxford, to Coventry Priory, circa I170-75, in satisfaction of the injuries done to 
that house by his father; and, circa 1175-80, he granted a third part of Checkenden to 
Geoffrey Marmion, whose relationship is not specified. He began the foundation of 
Barbery Abbey in Normandy.

He is said to have married Elizabeth, whose parentage is unknown. He died in or 
before October 1181. [Completed Peerage VIII:508-9, XIV:468, (transcribed by Dave

The following excerpt from a post to SGM by Alan Wilson places Maud de Beauchamp 
as wife of this Robert, as opposed to CP above, which has this Robert marrying an 
Elizabeth while his son Robert's 1st wife was Maud de Beauchamp:

Robert II Marmion, b. before 1133, d. circa 1181, m. Maud de Beauchamp, dau. of 
William de Beauchamp and Maud de Braose. About 1170/1175 Robert grants the 
church of Checkenden to the Priory of Coventry (Boarstall Cartulary No. 1). This 
Robert, son of Milicent and Robert, about 1175 to 1180 also grants a third of 
Checkenden to a William Marmion, and confirms to this William the gift of another third 
of Checkenden which he had earlier granted to William's brother, Geoffrey (Boarstall 
Cartularies 20 through 23). [Alan B. Wilson, SGM 14 Apr 1997]
