• Name	Robert MALET
  Note	Aft 1066  [1, 2]
  Editor's Note: The first Malet known to hold the Honour of Curry Mallet was Robert Malet, but where does he fit in the larger Malet family known to exist in England at this time? It is important to state at the outset that we have no historical record explaining exactly who this Robert was; only theories. All of the theories however lead us to conclude that even though we don't know for certain where, when or to whom Robert was born, we have no reason to suspect that he was not in some sense a descendant of the William Malet known to have been one of the Knights who accompanied William the Conqueror in 1066. What follows is a verbatim excerpt from "Notices of an English Branch of the Malet Family", by Arthur Malet, published 1885, wherein he makes the case that this Robert Malet was the son of Gilbert Malet, who in turn was the son of William Malet who fought at the Battle of Hastings. Further research has been done by several scholars since Arthur Malet published his work, and none of them support Arthur Malet's theory. K.S.B. Keats-Rohan, writing in "Domesday Book and the Malets" suggests that this Robert may actually have been the son of Robert Malet, brother of Gilbert, and that is the theory followed here.

Gilbert Malet, the second son of William Malet, the companion of William the Conqueror, does not appear in English history among the actors of the stirring deeds of the time immediately succeeding the conquest of England. We cannot suppose but that a man the son of William Malet, and brother of Robert Malet, must have been a personage of considerable importance, but in the absence of any record of his deeds or qualities it is as the transmitter to his descendants of the blood of the founder of the family that we are chiefly interested in him. The first notice we have of him is that he, with his father, mother and sister, was among the few spared by the Danes and English from the slaughter of the garrison of the Castle of York in 1069. It is supposed that his elder brother Robert was at this time about twenty-six years of age, and if Gilbert was the youngest of the three children, he may have been at this time about twenty years old. He is named in Beatrice Malet's gift of Radingfield to the Monastery of Eye* as her brother, and in Domesday Book, which is supposed to have been completed in 1086, so that at that time he may have been of the age of about thirty-six. In that record we find him holding land under his brother Robert,** and in two instances Hubert de Malet holds land in the same village as Gilbert. But the total thus held is so small that it is evident he must have had property elsewhere. From all these small possessions lying within the same half Hundred, I think it is not im- probable that they may have been set apart for him by his father William while he was a youth, and that he continued to hold them after William's death under his brother Robert. There is no historical record of Gilbert's marriage, but as we have no reason to think that any other Malets than William and Durand and their families came to England at that period, and as Durand and his descendants remained in the eastern counties, we must look to William's descendants for those of that name that we find in the West of England. Roger de Corcelle is entered in the Domesday Book as holding in the County of Somerset more than one hundred properties. The Rev. R.W. Eyton in his Domesday Studies writes in p. 59 "Counting all additamenta of manors and all duplicate manors, this feudalist held in capite (A.D. 1086) no less than one-hundred and eight Somerset estates. Most of them were small; some were only recently acquired; waste was a characteristic of a few, value of none; only three of the number gelded for more than 3 1/2 hides; these were Shepton (4 hides), Limington (7 hides), and Curi, now Curry Malet (7 hides). Besides these tenures in capite Roger de Corcelle held many manors under Glastonbury Abbey, a position in which we learn from Domesday he had been preceded by his father. Undoubtedly that father was Wilhelm de Curcelle, whom we find in the summer of 1068 attesting the Conqueror's restoration of Banwell to Giso, Bishop of Wells." This Roger de Corcelle after Domesday disappears, and the next owner of a portion of his Somerset estates, notably of Shepton and Curi, the former under the Abbot of Glastonbury, the latter in capite, is Robert Malet. Of the time when, or of the means by which he became possessed of them I can find no trace. I have from Canon Jackson's historical associations of Farleigh Castle,*** p.1, "At the death of this Roger de Corcelle the manor of Farlegh reverted to the Crown, and William Rufus granted it with other estates to Hugh de Monfort." And by the kindness of Mr. Wm. Daubeny in showing me the pedigree of the family of Albini, I learn that " William Albani married Cecilia Bigod, who held Roger de Corcelle's manor of South Petherton of the gift of Henry I. "Thus for the lapse and transfer of these two comparatively small portions of the estate a record exists so far important that it fixes the death of Roger de Corcelle not later than some time in the reign of William Rufus. But we learn from the return made by the Abbot of Glastonbury in the 12th year of Henry II, A.D. 1166+ that Robert Malet had possessed in the time of Henry I property which had been held by Roger de Corcelle, and which at the date of this return was accounted for by William Malet. Now we know that all the English possessions of Robert Malet the son of the first William Malet were confiscated by Henry I in the year 1101, and were afterwards bestowed by him on Stephen Count de Blois, afterwards King of England. These estates in Somersetshire, however, were never confiscated; there is no trace of confiscation or re-grant; they fell into the possession of Robert Malet noiselessly and peaceably . The only inference to be drawn is, that Gilbert Malet the son of the first William Malet must have married either a sister or a daughter of Roger de Corcelle, and his son Robert inherited the property of his mother. Had the property been obtained in any other way, some transaction would have remained either in the Crown records for the property held in capite, or in the Glaston records for that held of the Abbey. Or in failure of records, some tradition would have remained. As in collecting circumstantial evidence the minutest circumstances must not be neglected, I would draw attention to the Christian names. The first Gilbert names his son Robert, after his great brother; that son names his son William, after his grandfather; the founder of the family; and this William gives to his son the name of Gilbert, his grandfather, who again names his son William. The significance of the arms also requires notice. The earliest arms borne by the Malets were the three fermalets or buckles; these were used by the descendants of Durand Malet and by the descendants of the first Robert through his son William, who was the ancestor of so many distinguished families in France, all of which retained this cognisance. But the descendants of Gilbert Malet in Somerset took for their arms++ a shield bearing Paly of six ermine and gules a lion passant regardant or, over all. Had they obtained their property by any mode excepting that of marriage, it is most improbable that they would have taken other arms than those borne by the senior branch of the family, while, as we may infer from the change of arms by the Enmore Malets a few generations on, it was not an unusual measure on a marriage with an heiress; for Baldwin Malet took the arms of Deandon on his marriage with Matilda, a daughter and coheiress of Hamelyn de Deandon (circa 1272). I may perhaps have dwelt too long on a subject which may be deemed not open to question, but it seemed to me better to work it out independently of any prepossessions than to slur it over on the strength of a supposed general acknowledgement of the fact. 3 CONT Gilbert Malet was succeeded by his son Robert Malet. * CHARTER OF THE MONASTERY OF EYE.

  Editor's Note: The first Malet known to hold the Honour of Curry Mallet was Robert Malet, but where does he fit in the larger Malet family known to exist in England at this time? It is important to state at the outset that we have no historical record explaining exactly who this Robert was; only theories. All of the theories however lead us to conclude that even though we don't know for certain where, when or to whom Robert was born, we have no reason to suspect that he was not in some sense a descendant of the William Malet known to have been one of the Knights who accompanied William the Conqueror in 1066. What follows is a verbatim excerpt from "Notices of an English Branch of the Malet Family", by Arthur Malet, published 1885, wherein he makes the case that this Robert Malet was the son of Gilbert Malet, who in turn was the son of William Malet who fought at the Battle of Hastings. Further research has been done by several scholars since Arthur Malet published his work, and none of them support Arthur Malet's theory. K.S.B. Keats-Rohan, writing in "Domesday Book and the Malets" suggests that this Robert may actually have been the son of Robert Malet, brother of Gilbert, and that is the theory followed here.

We learn from the return made by the Abbot of Glastonbury 12 Henry II, A.D. 1166,* that Robert held in the reign of Henry I, sometime between the years 1100 and 1135, under the Abbey of Glastonbury, ten knights' fees; and we also know from his son William Malet's return of his knights' fees at the same time,** that the greater portion of the Somerset knights' fees held by him was of the old feoffment, which must mean that they had been held by his father Robert before him. Thus we find Robert Malet in possession of a large part of the property of Roger de Corcelle, who died during the reign of William Rufus. No record or tradition existing of the mode in which these possessions fell to the Malets, I have concluded that Gilbert Malet must have married a De Corcelle, heiress to those estates of which Robert was seised during the reign of Henry I. Robert Malet was a witness to the charter granted by Maud the Empress to Geoffrey de Magnaville when she created him Earl of Essex, which is supposed to have been in about 1141, but he lived on at least to 1150; for Mr. Farbrother in his Notes on the History of Shepton Malet, page 220, states "that there was not long ago in the chest of Shepton Mallet Church a letter from Robert Malet written in about 1150, in which he petitions the Pope on behalf of himself and the inhabitants that a cemetery may be added to the Church, for that the corpses were lost and frequently those also who carried them in going to Glastonbury, the place of burial, in bogs and quagmires." Beyond this date I find no record of him. Supposing therefore that he was twenty-one years at the accession of Henry I, and this would be probable, as his father Gilbert must have been about fifty years old at that time, he must have been about seventy-one years old in 1150, the date of his petition to the Pope. He was succeeded by his son William. * Sir A.M.'s MSS., Vol. II, pp. 1 and 2. Return made by Abbot of Glastonbury, 12th Henry II, A.D. 1166.
