Weis" "Ancestral Roots. . ." (63A:28), (70:29), (177:6), (177A:6). Her parents are not identified.
Cokayne's "Complete Peerage", (Abergavenny, p.22).
Somewhere, I saw her father identified as Reginald de St. Valerie, b. abt. 1129, but the source has been lost. In a posting to GEN-MEDIEVAL on 25 JUL 1998, Leo Van de Pas identified her parents as BERNARD DE ST. VALERIE and his 1st wife, MAUD. No sources cited.
It is widely suspected that KING JOHN of England, murdered his nephew Arthur, Count of Brittany, in order to prevent any thought of Arthur's coming to the throne of England in place of John. WILLIAM DE BRAOSE had for sometime previously been in charge of Arthur's imprisonment, but when he believed that JOHN meant the boy no good, he refused to remain responsible for the boy's welfare. Arthur mysteriously disappeared while under JOHN's control in Rouen. The author of the Annales Margam states that Arthur's body was recovered from the Seine and given decent burial near Bec. Later, an occasion arose where JOHN required that WILLIAM DE BRAOSE and his wife Maud give their sons to him as hostages - to ensure WILLIAM DE BRAOSE's good behavior. Maude refused, stating or insinuating that she would not give her children into the hands of a man who had murdered his own nephew. JOHN made her pay heavily for this remark. He imprisoned her and her son, William, in Windsor Castle, where they were starved to death.
