The de Beauchamps
There were two William de Beauchamps - one a Baron of Bedford the other of Elmley, Worcestershire. They are possibly brothers.
In my first dissection of Thomas Wright's text I was a little confused as Wright refers to the wife of William as Avicia. It is known that the line of succession in Belchamp Walter was not straight-forward and there were "re-arrangements" made by the monarch of the time with regards to allegences.
If you are reading this and are researching the de Beauchamp family you may wish to read the original text for yourself. (See link below)
Above is an example not directly related to de Beauchamp but it shows the "rambling" nature of the text.
My research process in part was taking the Wright text, reformatting it and adding links to specific pages dedicated to the family or person cited.
Background to this page
Having seen some of my history pages being found by those making an Internet search I have decided to add a bit more context on how the pages came about.
