• Notes

  - Earl of Arundel.   Robert de Belleme, Earl of Shrewsbury, whose chief strongholds were in the Welsh Marches, was an exceptionally sadistic man and not popular with the English people. Although he lost several castles in the process, Henry successfully expelled Robert de Belleme with enthusiastic support.   Robert inherited Alcenon in Normandy from his father. His brother, Hugh, inherited the English lands, but when Hugh died without an heir in 1098, Robert succeeded to the, becoming Earl of Arundel and Shrewsbury. All of his English honors and estates were forfeited to the Crown when he was exiled in 1102. For more information see the Our Folk - Hart family Web Site
