English Baronies: A Study of their Origin and Descent 1086-1327, Oxford, 1960, p.91〕 was an Anglo-Norman nobleman. By his lucrative marriage he became "the founder of the fortunes of his family",〔Planché〕 later prominent in England as Earls of Hereford and Earls of Essex, and for this reason is usually enumerated "Humphrey I" even though following his father he was the second "Humphrey de Bohun" in England.〔J. R. Planché, ''The Conqueror and his Companions'' (London, 1874), II, (65 ).〕 He has even been called ''Humphrey the Great''.〔Melville M. Bigelow, "The Bohun Wills," ''American Historical Review'', 1:3 (1896), 415.〕 He was the youngest son of Humphrey with the Beard, lord of the manor of Bohun in Normandy, who had taken part in the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. He married Maud of Salisbury, a daughter of Edward of Salisbury (d.1130),〔Sanders, I.J.
