Early Umfraville/Umfrevilles

Information on this page, regarding the 2 Robert de Umfraville's, has been taken from various sources. Where possible I have included the source details.

The first of the UMFRAVILLE family who came into Northumberland was a companion of William the Conqueror - Robert cum Barba, Robert with the beard. To him the barony of Prudhoe was granted for the honourable services of defending the country against wolves and the King's enemies with the sword which William himself wore when he entered Northumberland. The old barony extended to Harlow and Welton in the parish of Ovingham, Inghoe in the parish of Stamfordham, Chipchase and Birtley in the parish of Chollerton, Little Bavington right away in the parish of Throckington, even to Capheaton and Harle and Kirkwhelpington in the parish of Whelpington, and also included the manor and chapelry of Little Heaton, or Kirk Heaton.

Baron of Prudhoe

Odinel I (died in or after 1166)

Succeeding his father Robert I in England, he was also active in Scotland, being associated there with King David I and his grandson King Malcolm IV. He left no children.

Gilbert I (died in or after 1175)
Succeeding his brother Odinel I after 1166, he had made his career mostly in Scotland, and was presumably the father of Odinel II.

Odinel II (died 1182)
Succeeding his presumed father Gilbert I after 1175, he had been raised in Scotland, initially serving in the household of King William I. He married Alice, daughter of the justiciar Richard Lucy, and had four or five sons, including Robert II and Richard, and at least three daughters, one being Alice who married William Bertram of Mitford. At his death in 1182 his estates in Northumberland alone were valued at nearly £60 a year and other English lands in Yorkshire, Suffolk, and Rutland may have doubled that, making him a wealthy magnate.

Succeeding his father Odinel II in 1182, he left no children.
