William de Brus, 3rd Lord of Annandale (died 16 July 1212), was the second but eldest
surviving son of Robert de Brus, 2nd Lord of Annandale.
His elder brother, Robert III de Brus, predeceased their father, never holding the
lordship of Annandale. William de Brus thus succeeded his father when the latter died
in 1194.
William de Brus possessed large estates in the north of England. He obtained from
King John, the grant of a weekly market at Hartlepool, and granted lands to the
canons of Gisburn.[1] Very little else is known about William's activities. He makes a
few appearances in the English government records and witnessed a charter of King
William of Scotland.
He married a woman called Christina, and had by her at least two sons and one
daughter:
Robert (his successor)
William
Agatha married Ralph Tailboys
