1 CONC Research on Ralph de Bohun as the ancestor of George Boone who came to 
1 CONC America, found in a book in Caterbury, England by Vivienne George, the 
1 CONC book was written in 1515 and gives the line from Ralph down through page 
1 CONC four (4) of House of de Bohun, Sir Humphrey de Bohun who married 
1 CONC Margaret, the daughter of the Mayor of London. The House of de Bohun 
1 CONC records end on page five (5) with George Boone married to Mary

1 CONC Henry de Bohon (died 1220), first earl of Hereford in this family, 
1 CONC supported King John (Lackland) when Normandy was reclaimed by France  in 
1 CONC 1204.  He was an important participant in the movement to establish the 
1 CONC Magna Carta and was one of the 25 selected to police it.
1 CONT
1 CONT Henry de Bohon (1176-1220), earl of Hereford, played an important rolein 
1 CONC the revolt of the arons against King John.  Born in 1176, he succeeded 
1 CONC his grandfather honorably.
1 CONT
1 CONT Henry married Maud (Mathilda, died 1236), daughter of Geoffrey (Geoffrey 
1 CONC Fitz Piers de andavill), son of Pierre de Mandeville, earl of Essex.  She 
1 CONC was sister and heiress of William de andeville who died childless in 1189 
1 CONC and was appointed the barony of Pleshey (Essex).
1 CONT
1 CONT The Mandeville family descended from Geoffrey, companion of William the 
1 CONC Conqueror.  His son as constable of the Tower of London.  His grandson, 
1 CONC also named Geoffrey, was strong and mbitious.  Later he was  depossessed 
1 CONC of his lands and excommunicated for having pillaged the church lands, so 
1 CONC he revolted against Stephen and was mortally wounded in his attack of 
1 CONC Burwell
1 CONT castle.
1 CONT
1 CONT Geoffrey (the grandson) left three sons.  The oldest Ernald, shared in 
1 CONC his father's revolt and was exiled.  The second, Geoffrey, succeeded his 
1 CONC father and died in 1166.  The third, William, third earl of Essex and 
1 CONC earl of Aumale, succeeded his brother.  He was grand chamberlain to Henry 
1 CONC II and played an important role in the wars between Louis VII of France 
1 CONC and Philip Auguste.  He accompanied Philip, earl of Flanders, on the 
1 CONC crusade.  He was also called the
1 CONT grand justicier.  William died childless at Rouen on 14 November 1189, 
1 CONC leaving his wealth to his sister, Maud.
1 CONT
1 CONT The reign of King John (1199-1216) started out well for Henry when he was 
1 CONC created earl of Hereford on 28 April 1199.  Henry was the first of the 
1 CONC Bohons to have the title, which included an annual income.
1 CONT
1 CONT The following year Henry and other nobles summoned his uncle in Scotland, 
1 CONC William the Lion, to appear at Lincoln to do homage.
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1203 Henry witnessed a document where King John confirmed the dowry of 
1 CONC Queen Isabelle.
1 CONT
1 CONT The principal interests of the Bohons were in England.  Henry paid taxes 
1 CONC of 50 marks and a groom, corresponding to 20 parts of a knight's fee, on 
1 CONC the Huntington land he inherited from his mother.  In Normandy, Henry 
1 CONC kept his more modest holdings (from Humphrey I) at Carentan and Pont 
1 CONC D'Ouve.
1 CONT
1 CONT After the first time France reclaimed Normandy (1204), Henry stayed loyal 
1 CONC to John.  His lands in Normandy were confiscated by Philip-Auguste.  Then 
1 CONC King John imposed a heavy tax to maintain the campaign of 1213-1214 to 
1 CONC prevent the crushing of a coalition formed at Bouvines on 27 July 1214 by 
1 CONC England, Flanders, and the German Empire.  The king was discredited and 
1 CONC there was general discontent.  The forces were dissatisfied that the king 
1 CONC awarded certain barons without their having to go through the regular 
1 CONC tests and examinations.
1 CONT
1 CONT Then there was a revolt of barons in which Henry took an active part.  
1 CONC The revolt ended with the signing of the Magna Carta at Runnymede 
1 CONC (Surrey) on 12 July 1215.  The lands that had been confiscated from Henry 
1 CONC were returned and the 25 lords took it upon themselves to make sure the 
1 CONC charter was enforced.
1 CONT
1 CONT The Bohons enjoyed being in possession of great lands at the frontier of 
1 CONC the Welsh country which was always threatened.  The other marcher lords 
1 CONC enjoyed it, too, because their military importance and independence was 
1 CONC greater than that of other royal lords.  Politically they were stronger 
1 CONC by being closer to the king.
1 CONT
1 CONT The lull was cut short when the war restarted.  The following year John 
1 CONC had Pope Innocent III excommunicate the earl of Hereford, which only 
1 CONC increased the opposition to the king.  John joined forces with the army 
1 CONC of Prince Louis of France (the future Louis VIII) when barons from the 
1 CONC north landed in England.
1 CONT John died on October 19, 1216, but Henry de Bohon did not ally himself 
1 CONC with the new king, Henry III.  He was taken prisoner at the Battle of 
1 CONC Lincoln on 20 May 1217, where Louis of France was defeated.
1 CONT
1 CONT Henry gave the churches of Boxe and Wilsford (Lincolnshire) to the priory 
1 CONC of Monkton Farley, and gave a pension to St. Nicolas Hospital in 
1 CONC Salisbury.
1 CONT
1 CONT Henry de Bohon died 1 June 1220 while on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.  
1 CONC His body was returned to Lanthony abbey.
1 CONT
1 CONT He had four sons:  Humphrey V, who succeeded him; Henry, who died young; 
1 CONC Ralph, benefactor of the Abbey of Grendon who married Lora; and Robert, 
1 CONC mentioned in the Book of Walden.

1 CONC Richard de Mary had three sons:  Richard, Humphrey, and Enjuger.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey V, second earl of Hereford, first earl of Essex, and constable 
1 CONC of England, was also called the good earl of Hereford.  He was a 
1 CONC contemporary of Henry III and died 24 September 1274/5.
1 CONT
1 CONT Born before 1208, Humphrey married twice.  His first wife was Maud 
1 CONC (Mathilda), daughter of Ralph of Lusignan, count d'Eu (who died 1219).  
1 CONC His second wife was Maud (Mathilda) of Avebury, daughter and heiress of 
1 CONC Roger of Tosny (who died 1264).
1 CONT
1 CONT The Tosny (Tony, Toeni) family was a very important one originating in 
1 CONC France.  Hugh de Tosny, archbishop of Rouen, was the source of their 
1 CONC fortune.  Roger I de Tosny fought the Muselmans in Catalogne.  Robert de 
1 CONC Toeni was on the list of companions of William the Conqueror at Hastings 
1 CONC and was lord of Stafford with the possessions of seven earls.  His 
1 CONC brothers, Roger II and Beranger, also had considerable domains.  The 
1 CONC former (Roger II) was builder of Clifford castle (Herefordshire).  Their 
1 CONC sister, Alice, married William, son of Osborn.  The following generation 
1 CONC Ralph III married the daughter of Walthof, the sister of Baldwin, earl of 
1 CONC Boulogne.  In 1204, the Tosnys, like the Bohons, supported John and  lost 
1 CONC their lands in Normandy.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey succeeded his father on 1 June 1220, then came into possession 
1 CONC of his lands and was confirmed earl of Hereford.  After the death of his 
1 CONC maternal uncle, William of Mandeville, he inherited the title of earl of 
1 CONC Essex (28 April 1228).
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1227 Humphrey V helped solve a quarrel between Henry III and his 
1 CONC brother, Richard, earl of Cornwall (whom Humphrey supported).  He 
1 CONC declared his intentions to postpone the judgment of the king's court and 
1 CONC royal lords.  The king refused and ordered him to submit or give up his 
1 CONC titles.  With other important barons Humphrey took the side of Richard.  
1 CONC The conspirators raised
1 CONT an army, and at Stamford (Lincoln) they demanded the reinstatement of the 
1 CONC earl's duties, an apology, and the confirmation of the liberties 
1 CONC guaranteed by the document.  The king conceded.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey was reinstated as marshall of the king's house.  He served at 
1 CONC the marriage of Henry III and Eleanor of Provence (1236), and was one of 
1 CONC nine godfathers at the christening of the future Edward I (1239).
1 CONT
1 CONT From 1239-1241 Humphrey was sheriff of Kent and constable of 
1 CONC Dovercastle.  He also distinguished himself in the Welsh and French wars.
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1242 Henry II led an expedition to reconquer Poitou, which was 
1 CONC occupied by Louis VIII of France.  Humphrey accompanied him in Gascogny, 
1 CONC but became irritated by the influence of the strangers/counselors under 
1 CONC the king.  He returned to England with the duke of Cornwall.  The 
1 CONC expedition later ended as a loss.
1 CONT
1 CONT Two years later with the earl of Clare, Humphrey took part in the 
1 CONC suppression of a Welsh revolt. After an initial success, they were 
1 CONC defeated, partly because the earl had been accused of embezzling part of 
1 CONC the inheritance of his sister-in-law, Isabelle (wife of David who was son 
1 CONC of Llewelyn).
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1246 Humphrey joined in a letter to Pope Innocent IV denouncing the 
1 CONC oppression exercised over England by the court of Rome.
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1248 Humphrey was presented to Parliament.  In 1250 he took the cross 
1 CONC and went to the Holy Land.
1 CONT
1 CONT In the meantime the queen was lavishing favors on the French in her 
1 CONC entourage and the king increased his spending, causing discontent among 
1 CONC the barons.  In 1253 Humphrey participated in a grand remonstrance made 
1 CONC to the king at Westminster Hall with the "bell, book, and candle" for 
1 CONC violations against the Magna Carta, a prelude to the revolt.
1 CONT
1 CONT The same year he founded the church of the Augustin Brothers on Broad 
1 CONC Street in London.  In 1254 he was in Gascogny with the king.
1 CONT
1 CONT From 1256-1258 "Mr. Humphrey de Boun" participated in many battles with 
1 CONC the Welsh.  In 1259 he was one of the barons who worked to re-establish a 
1 CONC truce between King Henry III and Llewelyn, Prince of Wales.  But the 
1 CONC following year there were again hostilities between the two. The king 
1 CONC summoned Richard of Clare and Humphrey de Bohon to the army with other 
1 CONC lords, Humphrey de Boun Jr. and Frank de Boun.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey was one of the councillors to draw up the Provisions of Oxford 
1 CONC in 1258 which affirmed the Magna Carta and reformed its misuse.  He was 
1 CONC one of the Council of Fifteen that advised the king.  The next year he 
1 CONC was commissioner to ratify a treaty between France and England.  In
1 CONT 1260 Humphrey was a traveling judge for the counties of Hereford, 
1 CONC Gloucester, and Worcester. In 1262, he negotiated peace with Llewelyn of 
1 CONC Wales.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey V's attitude toward the new conflicts between the king and the 
1 CONC barons has been confused with that of his son.  When the barons divided 
1 CONC their confederation Humphrey sided with Simon de Montfort.  In 1263 he 
1 CONC was one of the important barons who supported the king while his son was 
1 CONC on the opposite side.  Humphrey was taken prisoner at the Battle of Lewes.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey V was chosen one of 12 arbitrators to bring peace between the 
1 CONC king and Simon.  He
1 CONT died 24 September 1275 on the way to Kenilworth (Warwick).  There the 
1 CONC king stated the principles he was willing to compromise on to end the 
1 CONC revolt surrounding Kenilworth Castle. Humphrey was buried with his 
1 CONC ancestors at Lanthony.
1 CONT
1 CONT He had one son from his first wife, Humphrey VI, his successor, and four 
1 CONC daughters:  Mathilda (Maud) who married Anselme Marshall, earl of 
1 CONC Pembroke (died 1245); Cecilia or Alicia, who married Ralph de Toni; a 
1 CONC third who married Roger de Quincy, earl of Winchester; and a fourth.
1 CONT
1 CONT From his second marriage he had one son, John, lord of Haresfield, who 
1 CONC participated in the Battle of Evesham as one of the rebels.  John then 
1 CONC reconciled with the king and was the father of
1 CONT Edmond de Bohon.

1 CONC father.  He shared this post with Hugh Bigot/Bigod, Robert Haye, and 
1 CONC Simon de Beauchamp.  Sometimes he is confused with his father.
1 CONT
1 CONT We can follow Humphrey III in the entourage of King Henry I by the 
1 CONC documents he signed at Arques and Dieppe (1131), various English towns 
1 CONC (1131-1133), in Normandy at Rouen (1133 & 1134), and at Argentan (about 
1 CONC the same time).
1 CONT
1 CONT When Steven of Blois, earl of Mortain, grandson of William the Conqueror 
1 CONC and Adele, was crowned king of England after Henry I died (1135), 
1 CONC Humphrey kept his duties as steward presiding over charters.  Two were 
1 CONC written at Evreux in 1137.  One concerned infractions against God; the 
1 CONC other gave land in Bramford (Suffolk) to St. Mary d'Evreux.  In 1139 
1 CONC Empress Mathilda arrived in Sussex with her her half-brother, Robert of 
1 CONC Gloucester, to reclaim the inheritance of his
1 CONT father.  Humphrey, at the instigation of his father-in-law, Milo de 
1 CONC Gloucester, rallied with Mathilda and defended Trowbridge against King 
1 CONC Steven.
1 CONT
1 CONT During the troublesome years of the anarchy that followed, Humphrey 
1 CONC passionately fought with Mathilda's loyal and true followers.  He 
1 CONC witnessed Milo being named earl of Hereford in recognition of his 
1 CONC (Milo's) services on 25 July 1141.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey's signature is found on several documents in many English 
1 CONC villages.
1 CONT
1 CONT After initial success, the Battle of Winchester (1141) marked a 
1 CONC turnaround and Humphrey was taken prisoner.
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1143 in Devizes (Wiltshire), Mathilda reinstated possession of lands 
1 CONC and the office of chancellor of England to Henry in a written document.  
1 CONC She also gave him new wealth and land: Melchesam, Boczam, Malmesbury, and 
1 CONC Stokes-Wiltshire.  (Humphrey had been relieved of his duties after the 
1 CONC reign of Henry I.)
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey signed a document of Prince Henry in 1149/1150 at Devizes and 
1 CONC another in 1150/1151 at Argentan. In 1150 Trowbridge Castle was taken by 
1 CONC Stephen.
1 CONT
1 CONT When the abbey church of Montebourg was dedicated in 1152, Humphrey 
1 CONC consented to the gift of the church of St. Gregoire de Catz by Ildebert 
1 CONC de Catz and Steven de Magneville.
1 CONT
1 CONT After the death of his father, Geoffrey Plantagenet (1153), Henry was in 
1 CONC England leading the army.  Henry made an agreement with Stephen when 
1 CONC Eustache, Stephen's son, died, whereby Henry would succeed him to the 
1 CONC throne when he died (the next year).  Henry II then confirmed Humphrey's 
1 CONC inheritances in England and Normandy and his titles.
1 CONT
1 CONT Because of his role as lord chancellor and his signatures on numerous 
1 CONC documents, we are able to account for Humphrey's whereabouts.  He was in 
1 CONC England with the king (1153-1154); in Normandy (1156) at Argentan, 
1 CONC Falaise, and Quevilly (1174); with his peers in Chinon (1170- 1173); back 
1 CONC in England (between 1174-1179); and again in Normandy at Valognes, 
1 CONC Cherbourg, and Bonneville-sur-Touques (1180 & 1182). In January 1164 
1 CONC Humphrey was one of the barons summoned to the Council of Clarendon where 
1 CONC the constitutions were drawn up.
1 CONT
1 CONT In April 1173 when Prince Henry rebelled against his father, King Henry 
1 CONC II, Humphrey stood by the king.  With Richard de Lucy he invaded Scotland 
1 CONC in an attack against King William the Lion who supported Prince Henry and 
1 CONC the destruction of the bishop's palace at Durham.  Humphrey and company 
1 CONC burned Berwick and penetrated deeply into Scotland.  But when they 
1 CONC learned of the landing of Robert de Beaumont (earl of Leicester and 
1 CONC friend of Prince Henry) in Suffolk (29 September 1173), they made a truce 
1 CONC with William the Lion and marched against Beaumont. Humphrey battled with 
1 CONC the help of the peasants and was taken prisoner with his wife at Fornham 
1 CONC St. Geneviere near Bury St. Edmond (Suffolk) on 16 October 1173.  The 
1 CONC prisoners were taken to
1 CONT Falaise castle.
1 CONT
1 CONT The 1st of December 1174/5 in Falaise, Humphrey witnessed a peace accord 
1 CONC between Henry II and William the Lion recognizing the sovereigncy of 
1 CONC England over Scotland.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey's fortune considerably increased with the death of his 
1 CONC father-in-law, Milo of Gloucester, who without male heirs left a third of 
1 CONC his wealth to each daughter.  Humphrey also inherited the position of 
1 CONC constable of England that was held by his father-in-law.  In 1166 
1 CONC Humphrey inherited 3 1/2 parts of a knight's fees (rent) from his 
1 CONC grandfather's provinces and 9 1/2 parts "de novo." His wife received 17 
1 CONC parts from Milo's provinces and 3 3/4 parts of her
1 CONT brothers' land.
1 CONT
1 CONT He kept in Normandy a part of the inheritance from Humphrey I, 
1 CONC particulary land at Carentan and Pont D'Ouve.  A document confirmed the 
1 CONC gifts of his ancestors and the men of the Bohon priory. Among the 
1 CONC witnesses of this act were Enjuger de Bohon, Robert of Bohon priory, 
1 CONC duchess Margaret, and Henry de Bohon.
1 CONT
1 CONT A letter from Humphrey de Bohon to the men of Normandy and England stated 
1 CONC that Humphrey and his son gave to the Blanchelande Abbey the title of 
1 CONC Moulin de Biard with Pont D'Ouve.
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1181 with Alexander de Bohon he witnessed the foundation of Barbery 
1 CONC Abbey.
1 CONT
1 CONT Across the Channel Humphrey founded the priory of Monkton Farley 
1 CONC (Wiltshire) with his wife, supported by the Lewes Abbey.  Near the 
1 CONC beautiful forests and streams in England, his rich endowment provided 
1 CONC them with a large yearly income.  Among the benefactors associated with 
1 CONC this foundation are Mathilda de Bohon (his mother), Ildebert de Catz 
1 CONC (Chaz), Robert de Carentan, and his vassals; among the witnesses were 
1 CONC William de Beuzeville and Humphrey de
1 CONT St. Vigor.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey died 6 April 1187.  He was buried at the Lanthony Abbey 
1 CONC (Gloucestershire) founded by his father-in-law.
1 CONT
1 CONT He had a son, Humphrey IV, and a daughter Margaret, first wife of

1 CONC Served as Steward to King Henry I.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey II
1 CONT The sources for this branch of the Bohons, earls of Hereford, Essex, and 
1 CONC Northampton, are all English.  The name Bohon was changed to Boun, Boon, 
1 CONC Bowne, etc.  It was later considered to signify master or boss.  
1 CONC Humfridus, Onfroi, and Honfroy are translated as Humphrey.
1 CONT
1 CONT The frequent repetition of the first name Humphrey causes a lot of 
1 CONC confusion.  The English begin their line with the first Humphrey born in 
1 CONC Great Britain, who is our Humphrey II.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey II, known as Humphrey the Magnificent or Humphrey the Great, 
1 CONC benefitted from the favor of King William Rufus (son of William the 
1 CONC Conqueror).  His signature is on a number of papers of Henry I.  Thus we 
1 CONC can follow him around England (1103-1109), then in Normandy at Avranches 
1 CONC (1113) and Rouen (1119), then in England (1121), back to Rouen  (1125), 
1 CONC and back to England (1128).
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey II gave the church of Bishop Street in Salisbury (Wiltshire) to 
1 CONC the Lewes Abbey (next to Newhaven) and the church of Cheleworth to the 
1 CONC St. Dennis priory (Southampton).  He was a witness at the founding of 
1 CONC Savigney Abbey by Ralph de Fougeres.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey married Maud (Mathilda or Mahaut, who died 1142), daughter of 
1 CONC Edward de Salisbury, between 1087 and 1100.  The dowry gave him important 
1 CONC estates in the Wiltshire area and the barony of Trowbridge.  This was the 
1 CONC first of a series of marriages which benefitted the Bohons. They had a 
1 CONC daughter, Maud, and a son, Humphrey III.  Humphrey II died around 1129. 
1 CONC Edward de Salisbury or Saresbury, lord of Chittern (Wiltshire), is often 
1 CONC considered like a son of William d'Evreux, earl of Rosmare or Roumare and 
1 CONC companion of William the Conqueror.  He possessed very important lands at 
1 CONC Salisbury and other areas.  He wore the banner of Henry I at the Battle 
1 CONC of Bremule where he fought against King Louis VI of France (20 August 
1 CONC 1119). Besides his daughter Maud, he had a son, Walter (died 1147).

1 CONC Humphrey became the illustrious ancestor of the earls of Hereford.
1 CONT
1 CONT HUMPHREY THE OLD (died before 1093) was a modest Norman nobleman.  He 
1 CONC gained his fortune at an early age by accompanying William the  Conqueror 
1 CONC on his grand adventure.  He founded the Bohon priory in  Normandy and 
1 CONC gave birth to two branches of the family.
1 CONT
1 CONT His name is in the Domesday Book as.... de Bohon Honfroi (Humphrey de 
1 CONC Bohun)
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey I (Honfroy, Onfrei, Onfroi, Unfridus, Humfridus) Humphrey I, 
1 CONC also called The Old, was the founder of the house of Bohon.   He is 
1 CONC mainly known as a companion of William the Conqueror at the  conquest of 
1 CONC England and as the founder of the Bohon priory.  Old English books 
1 CONC designate him Humfridus cum Barba or Humphrey with the Beard.  His  beard 
1 CONC distinguished him from other Norman knights of the period because  they 
1 CONC habitually shaved.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey was the godfather of William and was certainly close to him 
1 CONC because we see the names of William, duchess Mathilde, and their  
1 CONC children associated with Humphrey's children.
1 CONT
1 CONT The oldest mention of Humphrey that we know of is in William's journals.  
1 CONC  It confirms a donation made at the abbey of St. Trinite du Mont at Rouen 
1 CONC  by Gilbert, Osbern's vassal.  William's signature is accompanied by that 
1 CONC  of Humphrey, son of Richard, listed with the rest of William'smen.
1 CONT
1 CONT In 1062 we find Humphrey again with William at the Hogue de Biville,  
1 CONC along with Roger de Montgomery and William, son of Osbern.  At a meal in  
1 CONC the middle of the road, William said they should be free like the common  
1 CONC people of the neighboring priory of Heauville.  In recounting the story,  
1 CONC a monk said that a fellow diner criticized William's liberalism.  Not  
1 CONC taking too kindly to
1 CONT criticism, William threatened to strike him with a  shoulder of pork.
1 CONT
1 CONT According to a paper from about 1060, the knight Humphrey, a rich and  
1 CONC noble man, granted the priory he founded, St. Georges de Bohon, to the  
1 CONC abbey of St. Martin of Marmoutier.  Humphrey tells us "with the 
1 CONC inspiration of God and the patronage of lord earl William for the relief 
1 CONC of my soul, and those of the late Richard of Mary,my father, and of the 
1 CONC late Billeheude, my mother...in
1 CONT the octave of the Pentecost before the venerable father Geoffrey, bishop 
1 CONC of Coutances...  I protect the abbey of St. Martin, the servants Arnouf, 
1 CONC Heribert, and Roger, and the other people whose names are  inscribed 
1 CONC here."
1 CONT
1 CONT The authenticity of this act, of which the original documents were 
1 CONC unfortunately destroyed, does not seem to bear to be contested.
1 CONT
1 CONT The latest dates proposed for the founding of the priory come from dates  
1 CONC of estate foundings (from Martene and Miss Gantier 1068; Gerville and  
1 CONC the Bernard abbey 1092; L. Musset between 1066 & 1087).  However, the  
1 CONC title of earl was given to William before 1066 and the founding of
1 CONT the  priory was earlier.  Originally the priory was settled by four 
1 CONC secular canons.  The act of including the priory with the abbey was 
1 CONC precisely to  entrust it with the lands of a knight.  (A knight cared for 
1 CONC and  protected his lands and those who lived there from thieves, warring
1 CONT lords, etc.)
1 CONT
1 CONT In later years St. Martin became very popular.  It was at Marmoutier  
1 CONC that William himself joined the Battle Abbey, founded to commemorate  the 
1 CONC Battle of Hastings where it was fought.
1 CONT
1 CONT A document signed by Sir William, duke of the Normands, before 1066  
1 CONC shows that Humphrey de Bohon gave a garden from his fief (holdings) in  
1 CONC Puchay to the nuns of St. Amand in Rouen for the repose of his soul and  
1 CONC those of his three wives when one of his daughters became religious.
1 CONT
1 CONT The monastery of St. Leger in Preaux was given the deeds to Barbeville, 
1 CONC St. Marie's Church, the town of Carentan, and the neighboring rectory.  
1 CONC Later Humphrey bequeathed the monastery a convent that his second 
1 CONC daughter entered.  Humphrey's sons Robert and Richard agreed with his
1 CONT actions.
1 CONT
1 CONT By 1066 Humphrey had been married three times, two daughters had entered  
1 CONC the convent, and sons Robert and Richard were old enough to assume their 
1 CONC inheritance.  Humphrey was a senior citizen.
1 CONT
1 CONT Wace cited among the soldiers of Hastings:  E de Bohon the older Humphrey.
1 CONT Humphrey's name, a bit distorted, is seen on a majority of other lists  
1 CONC of William's battle companions.  As Wace's poem was written more than a  
1 CONC hundred years after the events happened, some feel that Humphrey was not 
1 CONC among the people at the Battle of Hastings.  Taking into account the type 
1 CONC of document (poem), it is very probable that Humphrey did participate in 
1 CONC the battle.  He was also with several neighbors of Cotentin and probably 
1 CONC vassals,
1 CONT whose names were associated with his.
1 CONT
1 CONT On the Bayeux tapestry, in a meal scene presided over by Bishop Odo, a 
1 CONC bearded man is sitting to William's right.  It is possible that this is 
1 CONC Humphrey de Bohon--with the Beard--who would occupy a place of honor at 
1 CONC the table out of respect for his age.
1 CONT
1 CONT Ten years after Hastings, William was in England, so Queen Mathilda was 
1 CONC left in charge of the government in Normandy.  We know Humphrey was also 
1 CONC in Normandy because of the act of Cherbourg, about 1076.  Under the 
1 CONC king's orders, he rendered justice with the monks at the Heauville priory 
1 CONC against Bertram de Bricquebec, viscount of Cotentin, who had levied 
1 CONC unfair taxes on his people.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey is mentioned in the Domesday Book (a great census taken of all 
1 CONC the lands and people in England as ordered by William, between 1080 and 
1 CONC 1086) as a champion and defender of the throne, and as lord of  Taterford 
1 CONC in Norfolk.  Much of his wealth is attributed to the goodwill of William 
1 CONC and the spoils of the campaigns, which was not a unique situation.  
1 CONC However, the possession of large estates and properties in England was 
1 CONC not all fun; they were hard to protect from raiders and warring lords.  
1 CONC Humphrey probably also benefitted from Normandy's continued growth and 
1 CONC profits from his holdings. [NOTE: name of Humphrey de Bohun in the 
1 CONC Domesday Book...." de Bohon Honfroi "]
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey's signature is on:
1 CONT A treaty at Bayeaux.  The king presided over the treaty between the abbey 
1 CONC of Mont St. Michel and William Paynel.  Two documents of Boscherville on 
1 CONC 30 January 1080, with the signatures of his son Richard, and William, 
1 CONC Mathilda, and their two sons.  One is the endowment of the church of St. 
1 CONC Georges de Boscherville; the other documents a gift of St. Gervais Church 
1 CONC and St. Portais
1 CONT to St. Florent de Saumur with other revenues by William de Briouze.
1 CONT A document of William the Conqueror at Caen confirming the foundation of 
1 CONC the Lessay Abbey on 14 July 1080.
1 CONT
1 CONT Another document for the foundation of the Montebourg Abbey.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey's decision to combine the priory with the abbey was contested by 
1 CONC Geoffrey (son of Nervee) who reclaimed the priory.  The case was  settled 
1 CONC in favor of Humphrey by a judgment of the king's court on 27  December 
1 CONC 1080 at Cherbourg.  Among the witnesses were Humphrey de Bohon, his son 
1 CONC Richard, and Torchetil de Bohon.
1 CONT
1 CONT Continually Humphrey added his border lands to his holdings.  In answer 
1 CONC to his request, he received a formal deed from King William at 
1 CONC Bernouville, probably at the end of 1081.
1 CONT
1 CONT Other religious establishments benifitted from his generosity.
1 CONT
1 CONT Humphrey died between 1080 and 1093.  He had four sons that we know of:  
1 CONC Robert, Humphrey, Richard, and Enguerran, and two daughters.  Robert died 
1 CONC young, before his father.  Enguerran became a monk at Marmoutier in the 
1 CONC Bohon priory.  Richard began another branch, whose descendents include 
1 CONC (in France) Enjuger de Bohon and Richard de Bohon, bishop of Coutances,
1 CONT and (in England) the Bohons of Midhurst, Jocelin, bishop of Salisbury, 
1 CONC and Reginald and Savary, bishops of Bath.  Humphrey became the 
1 CONC illustrious ancestor of the earls of Hereford.
