=== Research Notes from Edward White

I was looking up something and noticed your entry on the second George Eskridge, husband of Hannah Rust. It seems to say that Eskridge was the father-in-law of Samuel Rust.

The problem lies in using Fothergill as a source. Here is what she wrote:

RUST, SAMUEL, 16 Aug. 1717; 26 March 1718.
The plantation where he lives to Mr. Patrick Spence and his father in law Capt. George Eskridge. . .

Here is Rust's actual will:

DW 6-254, 8/16/1715, pv 3/26/1718. Will of SAMUEL RUST
Unto Mr. Patrick Spence during his natural life the plantation whereon he now lived adjoyning to the land of Mr. James Coleman . . . If Mr. Patrick Spence thinks fitt, the dwelling house given him by his father in law Capt. George Eskridge may stand as it now does on the other side of the runn and he have land adjoining to the house for necessary houses and gardening.

This makes it clear that Eskridge was Spence's father-in-law. Eskridge was not Rust's father-in-law. All anyone knows of Samuel Rust's wife is that her first name was Martha.

=== Research Notes from Edward White

I was looking up something and noticed your entry on the second George Eskridge, husband of Hannah Rust. It seems to say that Eskridge was the father-in-law of Samuel Rust.

The problem lies in using Fothergill as a source. Here is what she wrote:

RUST, SAMUEL, 16 Aug. 1717; 26 March 1718.
The plantation where he lives to Mr. Patrick Spence and his father in law Capt. George Eskridge. . .

Here is Rust's actual will:

DW 6-254, 8/16/1715, pv 3/26/1718. Will of SAMUEL RUST
Unto Mr. Patrick Spence during his natural life the plantation whereon he now lived adjoyning to the land of Mr. James Coleman . . . If Mr. Patrick Spence thinks fitt, the dwelling house given him by his father in law Capt. George Eskridge may stand as it now does on the other side of the runn and he have land adjoining to the house for necessary houses and gardening.

This makes it clear that Eskridge was Spence's father-in-law. Eskridge was not Rust's father-in-law. All anyone knows of Samuel Rust's wife is that her first name was Martha.

; Per Genealogics:
     “Richard was born in Normandy on 23 August 963, the son and heir of Richard I 'the Fearless' and Gunnor. He succeeded as Duke of Normandy on his father's death in 996. Richard held his own against a peasant insurrection, and helped Robert II of France against the duchy of Burgundy. He also repelled an English attack on the Cotentin Peninsula led by Aethelred II 'the Unready', king of England. He pursued the reform of the Norman monasteries.
     “Richard attempted to improve relations with England through his sister Emma's marriage to King Aethelred. This connection later gave his grandson, William 'the Conqueror', his claim to the throne of England.
     “In 1000 he married Judith de Bretagne, daughter of Conon I 'le Tort', duc de Bretagne, and Ermengarde d'Anjou. Richard and Judith had six children of whom four would have progeny.
     “In 1017, Richard married Estrid Svendsdatter of Denmark, daughter of Svend I 'Forkbeard', king in Denmark, Norway and England, and Gunhild/Swjatoslawa/Sygryda of Poland. This marriage ended in divorce, with no progeny.
     “Richard's third wife was Poppa, by whom he had a son Guillaume, comte d'Arquens, who did not have progeny. Richard also had two illegitimate children, Mauger of Normandy who became Archbishop of Rouen, and Papie, who would have progeny.
     “Richard died on 28 August 1027, and was succeeded by his son Richard III. However, when Richard III died in 1028 he was succeeded by his younger brother Robert.”.5

     "RICHARD, son of RICHARD I "Sans-Peur" Comte [de Normandie] & his second wife Gunnora --- (-23 Aug 1026, bur Fécamp). Ademar names Richard as son of "Richardus Rotomagensis"[160]. Guillaume of Jumièges names “Richardum...et Robertum atque Malgerium aliosque duos” as the sons of Richard and his wife “Gunnor ex nobilissima Danorum prosapia ortam”[161]. Robert of Torigny names "Ricardum…qui ei successit et Robertum postea archiepiscopum Rothomagensium et Malgerium comitem Curbuliensem, aliosque duos" as the sons of "Ricardi primi ducis Normanniæ" and Gunnora[162]. He succeeded his father in 996 as RICHARD II "le Bon/l'Irascible" Comte de Normandie. Orderic Vitalis records the death in 996 of "Ricardo seniore" and the succession of “Ricardus Gunnorides filius eius” who held “ducatum Normanniæ” for 30 years[163]. An agreement between the abbots of Jumièges and Bougeuil concerning an exchange of land in Poitou, by charter dated [13 Apr/4 Apr] 1012, is subscribed by "Richardus…filius Ricardi principi magni, filius eius Richardus et…mater Richardi comitis Gunnor, uxor comitis Richardi…"[164]. Duke of Normandy [1015]. “Ricardus princeps et dux Normannorum, filius Ricardi seniroris” donated “villam...Fontes in Braio...Brendelcurt cum ecclesia...æcclesiam de Nouobosco, æcclesiam de Bosmesnil...” to Saint-Wandrille, at the request of “Yvonis...militis”, by charter dated to [1024], subscribed by “Riccardi principis Normannorum, Papie comitisse, Roberti archipresulis fratris eiusdem principis, Yvonis militis...Hugonis Baiocensis episcopi, Girardi Flagitelli...”[165]. He intervened on behalf of his son-in-law Renaud Comte Palatin de Bourgogne, who had been imprisoned by Hugues de Chalon, by sending troops to devastate Chalon in 1026 and procure his release. According to Adam of Bremen, after repudiating his betrothal to the sister of Knud King of Denmark, Duke Richard left for Jerusalem to escape the Danish king's wrath and died there[166], but this is inconsistent with the duke's third marriage. "Secundus nominis mei Normannorum dux Ricardus" confirmed donations to Fécamp abbey, for the soul of "conjugis mee…Judith", by charter dated 1027 (misdated), signed by "Ricardi filii Gulberti, Nigelli vicecomitis…Storstingi vicecomitis"[167].

The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "X Kal Sep" of "Ricardus Rothomagensium comes"[170]. The necrology of Verdun Saint-Vanne records the death "X Kal Sep" of "Richardus comes"[171], although the connection between Duke Richard and Verdun has not been established.

An agreement between the abbots of Jumièges and Bougeuil concerning an exchange of land in Poitou, by charter dated [13 Apr/4 Apr] 1012, is subscribed by "Richardus…filius Ricardi principi magni…Judith…"[175]. The Chronicle of Caen Saint-Etienne records the death in 1017 of "Judita comitissa"[176].
     "Betrothed (after 1017) to ESTRID [Margrete] Svendsdatter, daughter of SVEND I "Tveskæg/Forkbeard" King of Denmark & his second wife Sigrid “Storråda/the Haughty” (-9 May ----, bur Roskilde Cathedral). Adam of Bremen records that "Chnud…rex Danorum" gave "suam…germanam Margaretam pro foedere" to "comitis Nortmannorum Rikardi" and after, she was repudiated by Richard, to "Wolf duci Angliæ"[177]. Saxo Grammaticus also records her betrothal[178]. The Chronicon Roskildense records that "Kanutus" gave "sororem…Estrith" to "Richardo", who repudiated her, after which she married "duci Ulf" without her brother´s consent[179]. She later married Ulf Thrugilson Jarl [Wulfsige Sprakeling].

Guillaume of Jumièges records that Duke Richard II married secondly after the death of his first wife “Papiam” by whom he had “Malgerium...archipræsulem et Willelmum Archacensem”[180]. She is named "Poppa", Duke Richard's second wife, by Orderic Vitalis[181]. The names of two of Papia’s brothers are found in the following two sources, but no other indication of her family origin. The Chronicon Fontanellense names “Papia” as second wife of Duke Richard, adding that “cuius fratres Ansfredus et Osbernus” were monks at Fontanelle[182]. “Osbernus et Anfredus fratres, tempore Ricardi secundi comitis, qui eorum sororem Papiam in coniugio habebat” donated “alodum...in monasterio Odelerii cum capella S.

     Genealogy.EU (Normany) shows her as the dau. of Richard I of Normandy and his 1st wife, Gunnor.
     Boyer (p. 183) shows Fresendis/Fredesina as the dau. of Richard II "the Good" and grand dau. of Richard I.
     Racines et Histoire says she was "soeur bâtarde de la précédente" [bastard sister of Murielle de Normandie dau. of Richard]
     Genalogics and Med Lands show no parents for her, but Med Lands reports: "A myth, not based on any evidence, emerged in the 16th century to the effect that both wives of Tancred de Hauteville were daughters of Richard I Duke of Normandy."
     A series of postings on soc.genalogy.medieval (SGM - now a Google Group in 2001 reviews the evidence:
     Per Peter Stewart wrote: "It is thought possible - not quite the same as believed to be "correct" - that Tancred's wives Muriella and Fressendis were illegitimate daughters of Richard II (the Good) of Normandy. They were probably related in some way, and for all I know it may be that at least Muriella was old enough to have been a daughter of Richard I (the Fearless) - but Fressendis seems to have belonged more certainly to a younger generation. (She is credited with at least nine children born up to ca 1045/50, making it unlikely that her father died in 996.)"
     Todd Farmerie responded: "The evidence for these connections are a pair of relationship clauses in contemporary (or nearly so) documents. One of these calls William, son of Tancred and Murielle "nepos Richardi Magni ducis Normandiæ", while the other says of Robert Guiscard ". . . inter quos nepos ipsius Ricardi, Robertus nomine, in Appuliam precectus est". Adding in chronology, which would seem to make the two women of the same generation as Richard III, it would seem to make them daughters of his father, Richard II."

Conclusion: I have deleted the connection I had earler for Fressenda to Richard. GA Vaut.7,30,31,32,33,34

; Per Genealogy.EU (Denmark): “C4. Estrid Svenssdotter; 1m: 1017 Duke Richard II of Normandy (*996 +28.8.1026); 2m: Ulf Jarl, Reichsverweser of Denmark (+1026)”.35

; Per Med Lands:
     "ESTRID [Margrete] Svendsdatter (-9 May ----, bur Roskilde). Adam of Bremen records that "Chnud…rex Danorum" gave "suam…germanam Margaretam pro foedere" to "comitis Nortmannorum Rikardi" and, after she was repudiated by Richard, to "Wolf duci Angliæ"[216]. The Chronicon Roskildense records that "Kanutus" gave "sororem…Estrith" to "Richardo", who repudiated her, after which she married "duci Ulf" without her brother´s consent[217]. Snorre names "Astrid, a daughter of King Svein Forkbeard" as wife of Earl Ulf, specifying that she was "a sister of Canute the Great by the father's side and of the Swedish king Olaf Eirikson by the mother's side, for her mother was Queen Sigrid the Haughty, a daughter of Skoglar Toste"[218]. Morkinskinna names “the lady Ástrídr…sister of two kings, Knútr the Great and Óláfr the Swede” as daughter of “King Sveinn Forkbeard…and Sigrídr en stórráda” who had previously been married to King Eirikr enn sigrsæli” and wife of “Jarl Úlfr sprakalegge”[219]. Saxo Grammaticus also records her betrothal[220].

He was Duke of Normandy. Per The Henry Project: "Successor to his father Richard I in 996, Richard II was the first of his family to be unambiguously referred to as duke of Normandy, a title that is also often given anachronistically to his three predecessors. At his death in 1026, Richard was succeeded in turn by his sons Richard III and Robert." between 996 and 1026.20

; Per Med Lands:
     "RICHARD, son of RICHARD I "Sans-Peur" Comte [de Normandie] & his second wife Gunnora --- (-23 Aug 1026, bur Fécamp). Ademar names Richard as son of "Richardus Rotomagensis"[160]. Guillaume of Jumièges names “Richardum...et Robertum atque Malgerium aliosque duos” as the sons of Richard and his wife “Gunnor ex nobilissima Danorum prosapia ortam”[161]. Robert of Torigny names "Ricardum…qui ei successit et Robertum postea archiepiscopum Rothomagensium et Malgerium comitem Curbuliensem, aliosque duos" as the sons of "Ricardi primi ducis Normanniæ" and Gunnora[162]. He succeeded his father in 996 as RICHARD II "le Bon/l'Irascible" Comte de Normandie. Orderic Vitalis records the death in 996 of "Ricardo seniore" and the succession of “Ricardus Gunnorides filius eius” who held “ducatum Normanniæ” for 30 years[163]. An agreement between the abbots of Jumièges and Bougeuil concerning an exchange of land in Poitou, by charter dated [13 Apr/4 Apr] 1012, is subscribed by "Richardus…filius Ricardi principi magni, filius eius Richardus et…mater Richardi comitis Gunnor, uxor comitis Richardi…"[164]. Duke of Normandy [1015]. “Ricardus princeps et dux Normannorum, filius Ricardi seniroris” donated “villam...Fontes in Braio...Brendelcurt cum ecclesia...æcclesiam de Nouobosco, æcclesiam de Bosmesnil...” to Saint-Wandrille, at the request of “Yvonis...militis”, by charter dated to [1024], subscribed by “Riccardi principis Normannorum, Papie comitisse, Roberti archipresulis fratris eiusdem principis, Yvonis militis...Hugonis Baiocensis episcopi, Girardi Flagitelli...”[165]. He intervened on behalf of his son-in-law Renaud Comte Palatin de Bourgogne, who had been imprisoned by Hugues de Chalon, by sending troops to devastate Chalon in 1026 and procure his release. According to Adam of Bremen, after repudiating his betrothal to the sister of Knud King of Denmark, Duke Richard left for Jerusalem to escape the Danish king's wrath and died there[166], but this is inconsistent with the duke's third marriage. "Secundus nominis mei Normannorum dux Ricardus" confirmed donations to Fécamp abbey, for the soul of "conjugis mee…Judith", by charter dated 1027 (misdated), signed by "Ricardi filii Gulberti, Nigelli vicecomitis…Storstingi vicecomitis"[167]. The necrology of Saint-Père-en-Vallée records the death "X Kal Sep" of "Ricardus comes"[168]. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés records the death "X Kal Sep" of "[Ricar]dus Normannorum secundus"[169]. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "X Kal Sep" of "Ricardus Rothomagensium comes"[170]. The necrology of Verdun Saint-Vanne records the death "X Kal Sep" of "Richardus comes"[171], although the connection between Duke Richard and Verdun has not been established. The Brevis Relatio de Origine Willelmi Conquestoris records that "Ricardus…filius Willelmi et alius Ricardus" were buried "Fiscanni"[172].
     "m firstly (Mont Saint-Michel [1000]) JUDITH de Bretagne, daughter of CONAN I "le Tort" Duke of Brittany & his wife Ermengarde d'Anjou ([982]-16 Jun 1017). Guillaume of Jumièges records the marriage of “dux Richardus” and “Goiffredum Britannorum comitem...sororem...Iudith” at “limina Archangeli Michaelis”[173]. Orderic Vitalis records that “Ricardus Gunnorides...et Judith uxor eius soror Gaufredi Britonum comitis” founded “cœnobium apud Bernaïcum in honore sanctæ Dei genitricis Mariæ”[174]. An agreement between the abbots of Jumièges and Bougeuil concerning an exchange of land in Poitou, by charter dated [13 Apr/4 Apr] 1012, is subscribed by "Richardus…filius Ricardi principi magni…Judith…"[175]. The Chronicle of Caen Saint-Etienne records the death in 1017 of "Judita comitissa"[176].
     "Betrothed (after 1017) to ESTRID [Margrete] Svendsdatter, daughter of SVEND I "Tveskæg/Forkbeard" King of Denmark & his second wife Sigrid “Storråda/the Haughty” (-9 May ----, bur Roskilde Cathedral). Adam of Bremen records that "Chnud…rex Danorum" gave "suam…germanam Margaretam pro foedere" to "comitis Nortmannorum Rikardi" and after, she was repudiated by Richard, to "Wolf duci Angliæ"[177]. Saxo Grammaticus also records her betrothal[178]. The Chronicon Roskildense records that "Kanutus" gave "sororem…Estrith" to "Richardo", who repudiated her, after which she married "duci Ulf" without her brother´s consent[179]. She later married Ulf Thrugilson Jarl [Wulfsige Sprakeling].
     "m secondly PAPIA [Poppa], daughter of --- (-after 1047). Guillaume of Jumièges records that Duke Richard II married secondly after the death of his first wife “Papiam” by whom he had “Malgerium...archipræsulem et Willelmum Archacensem”[180]. She is named "Poppa", Duke Richard's second wife, by Orderic Vitalis[181]. The names of two of Papia’s brothers are found in the following two sources, but no other indication of her family origin. The Chronicon Fontanellense names “Papia” as second wife of Duke Richard, adding that “cuius fratres Ansfredus et Osbernus” were monks at Fontanelle[182]. “Osbernus et Anfredus fratres, tempore Ricardi secundi comitis, qui eorum sororem Papiam in coniugio habebat” donated “alodum...in monasterio Odelerii cum capella S. Desiderii” to Saint-Wandrille by charter dated to [1024][183]. “Ricardus princeps et dux Normannorum, filius Ricardi senioris” donated “villam...Fontes in Braio...Brendelcurt cum ecclesia...æcclesiam de Nouobosco, æcclesiam de Bosmesnil...” to Saint-Wandrille, at the request of “Yvonis...militis”, by charter dated to [1024], subscribed by “Riccardi principis Normannorum, Papie comitisse, Roberti archipresulis fratris eiusdem principis, Yvonis militis...Hugonis Baiocensis episcopi, Girardi Flagitelli...”[184]. "Duke Richard [II]" donated property to the abbey of Mont Saint-Michel by charter dated to [1024/26], subscribed by "…Papie uxoris comitis"[185]. "Guillelmus Archensis comes et frater meus Malgerius Archiepiscopus" donated the vill of Periers sur Andelle to the monastery of Saint-Ouen at Rouen, at the request of "matris mee Paveie" and the consent of "Guilielmo Normannorum comite", by charter dated to [1047/50][186].

About the year 1000 she became the first wife of Richard II 'the Good', duke of Normandy, son of Richard I 'the Fearless', duke of Normandy, and his wife Gunnor. They had six children of whom four would have progeny, including Richard III and Robert, known as 'the Devil', who would both be dukes of Normandy.
     “About 1010 Judith founded the abbey of Bernay, thanks to a dower from her husband during their marriage. She died in Normandy on 17 June 1017, and was buried in the abbey she had founded. Since the Revolution her grave remains in the Church of Notre Dame de la Couture in Bernay.”.11

An agreement between the abbots of Jumièges and Bougeuil concerning an exchange of land in Poitou, by charter dated [13 Apr/4 Apr] 1012, is subscribed by "Richardus…filius Ricardi principi magni…Judith…"[126]. The Chronicle of Caen Saint-Etienne records the death in 1017 of "Judita comitissa"[127].
