Hugh d'Avranches, 1st Earl of Chester
Hugh d'Avranches ( – 27 July 1101), also known as ((フランス語:Hugh le Gros))〔 or ((ラテン語:Hugh Lupus)),〔 was the second Norman earl of Chester〔 (2nd creation) and one of the great magnates of early Norman England.
==Early life and career==
Hugh d'Avranches was born around 1047 as the son of Richard le Goz, Viscount of Avranches. His mother was previously identified as Emma de Conteville; however, C.P. Lewis, author of Hugh's entry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, states that the identification was made 'on the basis of unsatisfactory evidence' and that his mother is unknown.
Hugh inherited from his father a large estate, not just in the Avranchin but scattered throughout western Normandy. The Avranchin is located on the Contentin Peninsula of northern France, just east of Mont-Saint-Michel; it is among the areas (illegally) granted under the Treaty of Saint-Clair-sur-Epte to Normandy by the Kingdom of France that had previously belonged to the Duchy of Brittany.
Hugh became an important councillor of William, Duke of Normandy. His father contributed sixty ships to the invasion of England, and his presence on Senlac Hill in 1066, if not proved, was possible. His father remained in Normandy both to protect the duchy and because he was ill, so Hugh may have been his representative at Hastings.〔
