HUGH D'AVRANCHES, EARL OF CHESTER
The Conqueror and His Companions
by J.R. Planché, Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley Brothers, 1874.

The third son of Gerlotte was Ansfrid the Dane, the first Vicomte of the Hiemois, and 
father of Ansfrid the second, surnamed Goz, above mentioned, whose son Turstain 
(Thurstan, or Toustain) Goz was the great favourite of Robert Duke of Normandy, the 
father of the Conqueror, and accompanied him to the Holy Land, and was entrusted to 
bring back the relics the Duke had obtained from the Patriarch of Jerusalem to present 
to the Abbey of Cerisi, which he had founded. Revolting against the young Duke 
William in 1041 (Vide vol. i, p. 21), Turstain was exiled, and his lands confiscated and 
given by the Duke to his mother, Herleve, wife of Herluin de Conteville.
