  1. Curthoys

    Curthoys is a relatively uncommon surname, thought to derive from South West England . It is believed to have roots in Norman or French expatriates from the 10th century onwards. The origin of the surname remains unclear one argument is that the name is an anglicisation of the French surname Courtoise . Data from the 1881 census shows a strong association of the surname with the area around the English city of Bristol , both south Gloucestershire and north Somerset shire, and indicates that the name is uncommon. This suggests a degree of monogenesis i.e. there was just one original Curthoys in the British Isles from whom all others are descended . It also suggests that the original use of the Curthoys name emerged in the recent generations prior to the 1881 census. This is a later date of origin than that of most English surnames. It is believed that no English surnames can be formally traced back to the time of the Norman Conquest . However, the Curthoys surname has been linked to a corruption of the nickname Curthose as used for Robert Curthose , Duke of Normandy, who was the eldest son of William I of England William the Conqueror . The nickname, Curthose, comes from the Norman French Courtheuse , meaning short stockings or in English curt short & hose stockings , as sometimes translated. Towards the end of Robert s life, he was imprisoned in Cardiff , Bristol and Gloucester Gaols by his younger brother Henry I of England Henry I where it is believed he was afforded the luxuries and privileges of royalty in that era, including frequent contact with local people. It remains uncertain whether his area of imprisonment, combined with the historic distribution of the surname, is more than coincidental.

The previous year, Henry had seized the throne on the death of his brother William II of England William II , even though Robert had been William s acknowledged heir.

  1. Serlo, Bishop of Sées

    Serlo died 27 October 1123 was the Bishop of S es from 1091. He was imbued with the spirit of the Gregorian reform . According to Orderic Vitalis , Serlo was the first of the Normans to offer his services to the king , that is, Henry I of England , after the latter s invasion of the Duchy of Normandy in 1105. Earlier that year the church of Tournai sur Dive in Serlo s diocese had been burned by Robert de Bell me , and forty five men and women had died inside. Serlo, who had also crossed to Normandy from England , where he had been in exile, met Henry on Easter eve in the village of Carentan , where he found the church stocked with the possessions of the peasants, who were safeguarding them from the general disorder then wracking the Cotentin . Serlo made this the basis for an appeal to Henry probably staged to come to the defence of the people and the Church and depose his brother, the Duke of Normandy , Robert Curthose . This challenge accepted, Serlo continued to berate the king and his nobles for their effeminate manners and dress, especially their long hair, which Serlo himself promptly cut. The first to undergo the shearing were the king and Robert de Meulan . While the lengthy speeches of Serlo are more the invention of Orderic than history, they represent a faithful record of the principles and prejudices of the high clergy of the time staunchly royalist, stressing the analogy of the body politic . ref Charles Wendell David 2008 , Robert Curthose, Duke of Normandy , 161 63. ref Serlo died on 27 October 1123 in S es, in the presence of the papal legate s Pietro Pierleoni and Gregory of Sant Angelo . Again according to Orderic, Serlo bade his clergy to respect the legation as one from the universal father after God post Deum uniuersalis pater and to treat them properly as masters. ref Mary Stroll 2004 , Calixtus II, 1119 1124 A Pope Born to Rule BRILL , 469 70. ref References reflist Category 1123 deaths Category Bishops of S es fr Serlon d Org res ...   more details

  1. Vitalis of Savigny

    Saint Vitalis of Savigny ca. 1060 16 September 1122 was the canonized founder of Savigny Abbey and the Congregation of Savigny 1112 . Life He was born Vital de Mortain in Normandy at Tierceville near Bayeux about 1060 5. His parents were Rainfred le Vieux and Rohais. We know nothing of his early years after ordination he became chaplain to Duke William the Conqueror s brother, Robert of Mortain died 1100 . Vitalis gained the respect and confidence of Robert, who bestowed upon him a canonry in the abbey church of Saint Evroul at Mortain , which he had founded in 1082. But Vitalis felt within him a desire for a more perfect state of life. He gave up his canonry in 1095, settled at Dompierre , 19 miles east of Mortain, and became one of the leaders of the hermit colony of the forest of Craon . Here for seventeen years he lived an ascetic life, and was called Vital le Vieux Vitalis the Old taken from his father s name. At the same time he concerned himself, like his mentor Robert of Arbrissel , with the salvation of the surrounding population, giving practical help to the outcasts who gathered round him. He was a great preacher , remarkable for zeal, insensible to fatigue, and fearlessly outspoken he is said to have attempted to reconcile Henry I of England with his brother, Robert Curthose . He seems to have visited England and a considerable part of western France, but Normandy was the chief scene of his labours. Between 1105 1120 he founded a monastery of nuns, Abbaye Blanche , at Mortain, with his sister Adeline later canonized as abbess. He died at Savigny, on 16 September 1122.

Renaud went on the 1st Crusade , 1096 1099 99 , with Robert Curthose , Duke of Normandy . In the archives of Saint L St. L exists a charter, dating from the 1st Crusade, on which is found the Seal device seal of Renaud de Carteret. This seal shows that during the latter part of the twelfth century the de Carterets discarded their non heraldic equestrian seal, and took into use the following arms Blazon of Gules , en Fess Three Lozenge heraldry Fusier Argent , Label heraldry Etiqueter Azure . Red Shield, a Horizontal Stripe with Three Silver Lozenges fusils with a Blue Label . The Etiqueter Azure , or blue label, is a device of cadency brisure used by a first son. A label is removed on the death of the father, and the son inherits the plain coat. This proves that his father was still alive in 1099 .

Their daughter, Eremburg, married Fulk V of Anjou . In 1109, says Orderic Vitalis , Elias remarried to Agnes, the daughter of William of Poitou and relict of Alfonso VI of Castile .
