William de Cornwall

notes

From The Cornwall Family Possible Relatives of the Early Howards

3. Sir Walter de Cornwall (Earl Richard): of Branel, Cornwall [CIPM 3:483]; called brother of Edmund, earl of Cornwall. [no wife listed] known son: William

From Janet Ariciu family Bush

Douglas Richardson states "Walter de Cornwall, the illegitimate son of Richard Plantagenet, Earl of Cornwall."

My research that Walter received land in Brannel, Cornwall in 1300 by gift of his half brother, Edmund, Earl of Cornwall, and that Walter died in 1313, leaving as his heir, a son William, aged 26.
