Notes for Richard De Morville , Constable Of Scotland
Notes:
Weis" "Ancestral Roots. . ." (38:25).
On 30 Jan 96 Kathleen Much posted to me by email : He was the principal minister of WILLIAM THE LION. K.J. Stringer, ed. "Essays of the Nobility of Medieval Scotland" (Edinburgh, 1985), p. 64, gives name of Richard de Morville's wife as
Avicia. I believe it was Richard de Morville's brother Hugh who was one of the murderers of Thomas a Becket. Don't have the books handy to check, though. As I recall, he was subsequently disgraced and the family dwindled in England. Richard of course was Constable of Scotland and kept his lands there.
