He held lands at Bellême, Domfront and Alençon,Jean Jacques Gautier, ''Histoire d'Alençon'' (Poulet-Malassis, Imprimeur-Libraire, Place Bourbon, 1805), p. 24 He obtained the lands of Bellême from his brother Yves de Bellême, Bishop of SéezWhile Orderic stated that William Talvas succeeded his brother Robert, Yves (a.k.a. Ivo) inherited the lands of Bellême at the death of Robert about two years before he became Bishop of Séez in 1035. William Talvas probably held the lands from his brother Yves while he was Bishop and recovered the other family lands on his own.

1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Counts Of Alençon
Count (feminine: countess) is a historical title of nobility in certain European countries, varying in relative status, generally of middling rank in the hierarchy of nobility. Pine, L. G. ''Titles: How the King Became His Majesty''. New York: Barnes & Noble, 1992. p. 73. . The etymologically related English term "county" denoted the territories associated with the countship. Definition The word ''count'' came into English from the French ''comte'', itself from Latin ''comes''—in its accusative ''comitem''—meaning “companion”, and later “companion of the emperor, delegate of the emperor”. The adjective form of the word is "comital". The British and Irish equivalent is an earl (whose wife is a "countess", for lack of an English term). In the late Roman Empire, the Latin title ''comes'' denoted the high rank of various courtiers and provincial officials, either military or administrative: before Anthemius became emperor in the West in 467, he was a military ''comes ...

Ivo Of Bellême (bishop Of Sées)
''Ivo'' (Yves) de Bellême ( unknown , c.1071), was simultaneously bishop of Sées and lord of Bellême from c.1047/8 to c.1071. He was the son of William of Bellême and brother of William I Talvas. Yves inherited a chaotic situation around 1047/8, as his brother had become entangled in a conflict with the family of Giroie, and a revolt from his son Arnulf had overthrown him. Arnulf himself was soon murdered and Ivo, being the only remaining male in the direct line, assumed both the bishopric of Sées and the lordship of Bellême. He soon made peace with the Giroie, but faced a rebellion by the family of the Sorengi (Richard, Robert and Avesgot, sons of William Sorengi). They seized the cathedral, but Ivo, with the help of Hugh de Grandmesnil, beat them back at the cost of badly damaging the cathedral in a fire. Yves repaired the roof, rededicating the building on Jan.2 of 1049, but the walls collapsed soon thereafter. The construction of a new building was started soon, and b ...

Bec Abbey
Bec Abbey, formally the Abbey of Our Lady of Bec (french: Abbaye Notre-Dame du Bec), is a Benedictine monastic foundation in the Eure ''département'', in the Bec valley midway between the cities of Rouen and Bernay. It is located in Le Bec Hellouin, Normandy, France, and was the most influential abbey of the 12th-century Anglo- Norman kingdom. Like all abbeys, Bec maintained annals of the house but uniquely its first abbots also received individual biographies, brought together by the monk of Bec, Milo Crispin. Because of the abbey's cross-Channel influence, these hagiographic lives sometimes disclose historical information of more than local importance. Name The name of the abbey derives from the bec, or stream, that runs nearby. The word derives from the Scandinavian root, ''bekkr''. First foundation The abbey was founded in 1034 by Saint Herluin, whose life was written by Gilbert Crispin, Abbot of Westminster, formerly of Bec, and collated with three other lives by Mi ...
