* ''This article is based in part on a translation of the article :fr:Famille de Bellême from the French Wikipedia on 19 July 2012.''
House of Bellême also referred to as the Family of Bellême was an important seigneurial family during the 10th through the 12th centuries. Members of this family held the important castles of Bellême, Alençon, Domfront and Sées as well as extensive lands in France, Normandy and Maine.
==Rapid rise to prominence==
The first known progenitor of this family is Yves de Bellême who was probably the son of Yves de Creil,〔Yves de Criel and Yves de Bellême are confused by several sources and thought to be the same person by some. Yves de Criel, who was instrumental in saving young Richard I of Normandy would not chronologically be possible to be the same as Yves de Bellême, the subject of this article, who died c. 1005. Geoffrey White believed Yves de Criel was probably the father of Yves de Bellême, which was also accepted by all the French writers, but was of the opinion it should not be stated as fact as it was by Prentout. See: Geoffrey H. White, The First House of Bellême, ''TRHS'', Vol. 22 (1940), pp. 70-71.〕〔Geoffrey H. White, The First House of Bellême, ''Transactions of the Royal Historical Society'', Fourth Series, Vol. 22 (1940), p. 73〕 The ''caput'' of the lordship was the castle of Bellême, constructed "a quarter of a league from the old dungeon of Bellême" in Maine.〔Thomas Stapleton, ''Magni Rotuli Scaccarii Normanniae sub Regibus Angliae'', Tomis I (Sumptibus Soc. Antiq. Londinensis, Londini, 1840), p. lxxii〕
The second lord, William of Bellême, with the consent of Richard I, Duke of Normandy constructed two castles, one at Alençon and the other at Domfront, the caput of the lordship remained the castle of Bellême.〔 Yet in a charter to the abbey of Lonlay of the lands of Neustria Pia, he describes himself as William ''princeps'' and ''provinciae principatum gerens'' indicating he considered himself an independent ruler or prince of his own domains.〔Kate Norgate, ''England Under the Angevin Kings'', Vol. I (Macmillan and Co., New York, 1887), p. 114 & n. 1〕 His sons Fulk and Warin died in his lifetime leaving Robert as his heir.〔Geoffrey H. White, 'The First House of Bellême', ''Transactions of the Royal Historical Society'', Fourth Series, Vol. 22 (1940), p. 78〕 Robert de Bellême died a prisoner leaving the fourth son, Ives as lord of Bellême, who shortly thereafter became Bishop of Séez.〔Geoffrey H. White, 'The First House of Bellême', ''Transactions of the Royal Historical Society'', Fourth Series, Vol. 22 (1940), p. 81〕 William Talvas, held the lands of Bellême in right of his brother Bishop Ives who retained the Lordship himself until his death at which time William came into possession of the lands of Bellême, Domfront and Alençon.〔Jean Jacques Gautier, ''Histoire d'Alençon'' (Poulet-Malassis, Imprimeur-Libraire, Place Bourbon, 1805), p. 24〕 After the infamous incident (see below) with William fitz Giroie, his kinsmen sacked and destroyed the lands of William Talvas who would not face them in the field.〔''The Gesta Normannorum Ducum of William of Jumièges, Orderic Vitalis, and Robert of Torigni'', Vol. II, Ed. & Trans. elisabeth M.C. Van Houts (The Clarendon Press, Oxford & New York, 1995), pp. 110-12〕 In turn Talvas' son Arnulf rebelled and exiled his father, now reviled by everyone.〔 He wandered until he was taken in by the de Montgomery family whose son Roger agreed to marry his daughter Mabel in return for the lands William lost.〔Geoffrey H. White, 'The First House of Bellême', ''Transactions of the Royal Historical Society'', Fourth Series, Vol. 22 (1940), p. 84〕 Mabel inherited all the vast estates of her father (and in 1079 those of her uncle Bishop Ives) and married the heir of one of the most prominent families in Normandy, Roger de Montgomery, who became the 1st Earl of Shrewsbury.〔George Edward Cokayne, ''The Complete Peerage; or, a History of the House of Lords and all its Members from the Earliest Times'', Volume XI, Ed. Geoffrey H. White (The St. Catherine Press, Ltd., London, 1949), p. 686 & note (j)〕
