• Background Information. ¹⁴¹
Richard de Reviers, Seigneur de Reviers, Vernon, and Néhou, in Normandy. His parentage is unknown, but he has been conjectured to be son and heir of William de Vernon. In a charter of Henry I to the canons of Breamore, it appears that Richard's son, Baldwin, had an Uncle Hugh, who may be the Hugh de Redeveris mentioned in a memorandum of La Trinité at Caen. Also the Hugh mentioned as son of William de Vernon in a document in the cartulary of La Trinité de Rouen, signed by William Vernoneniss and Emma his wife. In the register of Carisbrooke [Monasticon, vol. Vii, p. 1041] it is said that Richard de Reviers was nepos of William Fitz Osborn, after whose death, the Isle of Wight was inherited by Richard de Reviers because William Fitz Osborn's two sons had died without issue. Richard de Reviers may have been the son of William de Vernon by Emma, sister of William Fitz Osborn. William of Jumièges states that a nice of Gunnor, the wife of Duke Richard was married to Osmund de Centumvillis, Vicomté de Vernon, and was the mother of the first Fulk de Aneio and of the mother of the first Baldwin de Reviers.
