Ernulf de Hesdin (died 1097), also transcribed as Arnulf and Ernulphe, was a French knight who took part in the Norman conquest of England and became a major landholder under William the Conqueror and William Rufus, featuring prominently in the Domesday Book. He was disgraced as a suspected rebel and died while taking part in the First Crusade as part of the army of Robert Curthose.

Considerable interest developed in Ernulf after Robert William Eyton, a pioneering historian of Shropshire, showed in the 1850s that, through the marriage of his daughter, Avelina, to Alan fitz Flaad, Ernulf was an ancestor of the Stewart Kings of Scotland as well as the FitzAlan, Earls of Arundel. A letter to the Herald and Genealogist journal in 1866 then posed the question: "Who was Arnulph de Hesding?"[9] However, the author then ably summarised what had become known of Ernulf's property holdings and offspring without adding anything to the biography. In a reply, Eyton himself opened up more areas for genealogical research but, as he confessed at the outset,[10] did not try to answer the question posed. Henry Barkly remarked in 1888 that "despite all researches, Ernulph de Hesding still remains one of the most mysterious personages in Domesday."[11] This remains true. A great deal is known of Ernulf's landholdings, including details of some of his numerous benefactions to monasteries, but biographical detail is absent, and an outline of his life has to be guessed from other information and legend.

Marriage and family

Ernulf's wife was called Emmelina, a diminutive form of Emma, as is confirmed by numerous grants they made together to monasteries, for example the grant of the manor of Combe in Hampshire to Bec Abbey.[45]
Issue[edit]
There is still some doubt about the children of Ernulf and Emmelina.

• Ernulf de Hesdin, a son and namesake, was one of Ernulf senior's heirs. He was hanged on the orders of King Stephen in 1138, after he and his nephew, William FitzAlan, held Shrewsbury for Empress Matilda in the opening stages of the Anarchy.[38]
• William is named, along with his sister Ava, as consenting to Ernulf's gifts to St George's Priory at Hesdin.[2] He may have inherited estates in France. He was still alive in 1125 as he was named in that year as witness to a grant that Henry I made to Cluny Abbey.[46]
• Avelina, known to be in this case a diminutive of Ava, married Alan fitz Flaad, a Breton adventurer who became an important landholder through the favour of Henry I. Alan's wife was long held to be the daughter of Warin, an earlier Norman Sheriff of Shropshire, but Avelina's existence and significance were proved by Eyton,[38] whose work was validated by J. Horace Round.[47] Avelina's second husband was Robert fitz Walter of Horsham,[48] Sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk, as shown in a grant, dated no earlier than 1126, of their church at Chipping Norton to Gloucester Abbey.[49] Two sons of Avelina and Alan are noted for their dynastic importance.
• William FitzAlan was heir to Alan's lands in England and from him were descended the FitzAlan Earls of Arundel.
• Walter fitz Alan became 1st hereditary High Steward of Scotland and ancestor of the House of Stuart who became the reigning dynasty first of Scotland and later of England and Ireland too.[50]
• Matilda married Patrick de Cadurcis,[51] Anglicised as Chaworth. His family was traced to a castle near Le Mans by Round,[37] who remained doubtful whether Matilda really was a daughter of Ernulf and Emmelina. However, the couple inherited a substantial part of Ernulf's Domesday estates. Round's comments were followed soon after by the discovery of stronger evidence by Barkley.[52] In the early 12th century the couple gave a church at Toddington, Bedfordshire to the Abbey of St Pierre de la Couture.[53] They named Ernulf de Hesdin as one of the spiritual beneficiaries, but referred to him as one who held their estates before them, rather than specifying him as Matilda's father.
