See notes under Father, Walter de Clifford, for documentation.
Note: It has been claimed in several sources that Rosamond Clifford was the mother of William "Longspee"; these claims in all instances are seemingly premises. In no case is there any positive evidence to substantiate the claim. It has been concluded that it is very unlikely Rosamond Clifford could have been his mother in view of the lack of this evidence. (See Eng. Pub. A., v. 11, p. 76); Ancestral File. William was a Baron named in the Magna Charta. Note: It is claimed (see Eng. 120 that William had a daughter Ela who married William d'Odingselles. Possibly this could be the same as Petronella; however, one of the above sources claims she was not married, so she has been listed separtely in this compilation. Only one of the sources (Nrthmp 3) shows Lora as a daughter. Additional date of baptism shown as 20 Jan 1934 and endowment of 26 Oct 1934. Dict. of Nat'l Biog., Eng. Pub.
