15. | Alberic DE (3.Alberic2, 1.Alberic1) was born before 1120; died in 1194. Notes:
Aubrey de Vere, born before 1120, third Baron by tenure, of Kensington, Count of Ghisnes, for his fidelity to the Empress Maud, was confirmed by that princess in the office of Great Lord Chamberlain, and all his father's territorial possessions. He had likewise other important grants with the Earldom of Cambridge, provided that dignity was not vested in the King of Scots, but if it were, then he was to have his choice of the Earldoms of Oxford, Berkshire, or Dorsetshire, all which grants being ratified by King Henry II., he was created Earl of Oxford, with the usual grant to earls, of the third penny of the pleas of the county. In the 12th year of King Henry II., on the levy of the aid for portioning the king's daughter, the Earl of Oxford certified his knight's fees to be in number twenty-eight, for which he paid 20 pounds, and in the 2nd year of King Richard I., he paid a fine of 500 marks to the king, "for the sister of Walter de Bolebec, to make a wife for his son." In four years afterwards he contributed 30 pounds, 2 shillings, and 6 pence for the knight's fees he then held, towards the sum at that time raised for the ransom of the king. The earl married (1) Euphamia Cantilupe, daughter of William de Cantilupe, by whom he had no issue, and (2) Lucia Abrincis, daughter and heiress of William de Abrincis.
