Life

Gilbert, born before 1066, was the second son and an heir of Richard Fitz Gilbert of Clare and Rohese Giffard.[2] He succeeded to his father's possessions in England in 1088 when his father retired to a monastery;[3] his brother, Roger Fitz Richard, inherited his father's lands in Normandy.[4] That same year he, along with his brother Roger, fortified his castle at Tonbridge against the forces of William Rufus. But his castle was stormed, Gilbert was wounded and taken prisoner.[5] However he and his brother were in attendance on king William Rufus at his death in August 1100.[5] He was with Henry I at his Christmas court at Westminster in 1101.[5]

It has been hinted, by modern historians, that Gilbert, as a part of a baronial conspiracy, played some part in the suspicious death of William II.[6] Frank Barlow points out that no proof has been found he had any part in the king's death or that a conspiracy even existed.[6]

In 1110, King Henry I took Cardigan from Owain ap Cadwgan, son of Cadwgan ap Bleddyn as punishment for a number of crimes including that of the abduction of Nest, wife of Gerald de Windsor.[7] In turn Henry gave the Lordship of Cardigan, including Cardigan Castle to Gilbert Fitz Richard.[8] He founded the Clunic priory at Stoke-by-Clare, Suffolk.[8] Gilbert died in or before 1117.[8][9]

Family

About 1088,[10] Gilbert married Adeliza/Alice de Clermont, daughter of Hugh, Count of Clermont, and Margaret de Ramerupt.[9] Gilbert and Adeliza had at least eight children:
