Ivo Taillebois (d 1094) was a powerful Norman nobleman, sheriff and Tenant-in-chief in 11th century England. ==Life== Ivo Taillebois was a Norman most probably from Taillebois, now a small hamlet in Saint-Gervais de Briouze, Calvados.〔K.S.B. Keats-Rohan, ''Domesday People, A Prosopography of Persons Occurring in English Documents 1066-1166'', Vol. I (Woodbridge: The Boydell Press, 1999), p. 283〕 He sold land at Villers to the Abbey of Saint-Étienne, Caen and donated a church of Christot in Calvados.〔 The latter diploma was attested by his brother Robert. Another brother, Ralph Taillebois, was High Sheriff of Bedfordshire and Ivo succeeded him as sheriff after Ralph's death shortly before 1086.〔 In 1071 King William, with Taillebois leading his army, besieged the Isle of Ely where the rebel leader Hereward the Wake was based.〔''Outlaws in medieval and early modern England: crime, government and society, c.1066-c.1600'', eds. Paul Dalton; John C Appleby (Farnham, England; Burlington, VT: Ashgate, 2009), p. 26〕 Hereward escaped capture during the siege but was caught and imprisoned; Taillebois dissuaded William from freeing him.〔''Outlaws in medieval and early modern England: crime, government and society, c.1066-c.1600'', eds. Paul Dalton; John C Appleby (Farnham, England; Burlington, VT: Ashgate, 2009), p. 27〕 His power base appears to have been in Lincolnshire, where he probably became High Sheriff of Lincolnshire before 1068.〔W. Farrer, 'The Sheriffs of Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, 1066-1130', ''The English Historical Review'', Vol. 30, No. 118 (Apr., 1915), p. 278〕 He married Lucy, daughter of Turold, the Sheriff of Lincolnshire before the conquest, later Countess of Chester, in whose name he held the extensive honor of Bolingbroke in Lincolnshire.〔I.J. Sanders, ''English Baronies; A Study of their Origin and Descent, 1086–1327'' (Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1960), pp. 17-18〕 In the Domesday Book he appears as a tenant-in-chief also holding Bourne and many of its manors.〔 William Rufus further endowed him with the lands of Ribblesdale and Lonsdale in Cumbria on the border with Scotland, possibly for his service as a royal steward.〔 He was also granted the Barony of Kendal by William Rufus, consisting of a sizable portion of Westmorland.〔I.J. Sanders, ''English Baronies; A Study of their Origin and Descent, 1086–1327'' (Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1960), p. 56〕 Ivo attested several charters for William the Conqueror before 1086, including the abbey of St. Armand and the abbey of St. Peter, Ghent, and several for William II Rufus including the abbey of St. Florent, Saumur and the abbey of St. Mary, La Sauve Majeure.〔''Calendar of Documents Preserved in France'', ed. J. Horace Round, Vol. 1 A.D. 918-1206 (London: Eyre and Spottiswoode, 1899), pp. 26, 415, 446, 502-03〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ivo Taillebois」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
