Robert of Ghent
Robert of Ghent〔 or Robert de Gant〔 (c. 1085–after 1154) was Lord Chancellor of England and Dean of York in the 12th century. The younger son of a nobleman, Robert was probably a member of the cathedral chapter of York before his selection as chancellor by King Stephen of England in the mid-1140s. He is not mentioned often in documents from his time as chancellor, but why this is so is unknown. He became dean at York Minster around 1147. Robert was slightly involved in the disputes over who would be Archbishop of York in the late 1140s and 1150s, but it is likely that his chancellorship prevented his deeper involvement in diocesan affairs. He was no longer chancellor after the death of Stephen, but probably continued to hold the office of dean until his death around 1157 or 1158.
==Early life==
Robert was probably one of the sons of Gilbert de Gant, who is mentioned in the ''Domesday Book''. Gilbert was from Flanders and came to England during 1069.〔Sherman "Robert de Gant" ''Haskins Society Journal'' pp. 99–100〕 Gilbert, who died around 1095, was married to Alice, daughter of Hugh de Montfort. Robert's conjectured siblings were Emma — wife of Alan de Percy,〔Keats-Rohan ''Domesday People'' pp. 210–211〕 Hugh de Montfort-sur-Risle, Gilbert de Gant — who died before his father, and Walter de Gant. If Robert was a son of Gilbert, he was a younger son, probably the youngest of the four brothers, and probably was born sometime around 1085, as his supposed parents married about 1075 and there were older siblings. Robert is often confused in the historical records with another Robert, son of Walter.〔 Robert was probably also the uncle of Gilbert de Gant, later Earl of Lincoln.〔
Robert's first appearance in the historical record is at Ramsey Abbey sometime between 1114 and 1123, where he appears as a witness to a charter. A further appearance is in a document of his brother Walter dating between 1130 and 1139.〔 It is likely that Robert was a canon of York Cathedral before 1147.〔Greenway ''(Fasti Ecclesiae Anglicanae 1066–1300: Volume 6: York: Prebends Unidentified )''〕 He is also claimed to have held the office of Provost of Beverley Minster as the immediate predecessor to Thomas Becket,〔 but this is unlikely, as Becket did not become provost until 1154, long after Robert had become Dean of York.〔Sherman "Robert de Gant" ''Haskins Society Journal'' pp. 101–102〕
