• Name	MARMION William
  Birth	Abt 1012	Fontenay-le-Marmion, Calvados, Normandie, France
  Gender	Male
  Notes	This proposed father of Robert seems to be based on records such as the following explained by Stapleton p.xcvi: Before the conquest of England, in the time of Hugh Bishop of Bayeux, Ralph Tesson gave twelve acres in pago Baiocensi, adjoining the river Orne, and opposite the west front of the abbey, to the monks of Fontenay, which land he had exchanged with William Marmion ; and in the same pays in the year in which Henry, King of the English, reduced Normandy under his subjection, Hadeguisa, the wife of Robert Marmion, upon being made a nun in the church of the Holy Trinity of Caen, gave to that church, and to the sisterhood, the land which she had in St. Georges and in Jurques, and the mill of La Hoiste and the Parket in its entirety, as Robert Marmion had held it on the day that he was alive and dead, by the concession of her sons, namely, Roger Marmion and Helto and Manasses, who, at the same time, together with their mother, placed the gift upon the altar. One of the witnesses of this gift was William Marmion. This William could have been a cousin or brother of Robert, and the two records might not relate to the same William.
