Ancestry

I suggest this ancestry of him:

Ancestors of Richard of Gloucester (bishop of Bayeux)^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]

8. William the Conqueror^[3]^[4]

4. Henry I of England^[2]^[3]^[4]

9. Matilda of Flanders^[3]^[4]

2. Robert FitzRoy, 1st Earl of Gloucester^[1]^[2]

10. Reginald Gay(t)?^[2]

5. A woman from Gay/Gayt family^[2]

1. Richard of Gloucester (bishop of Bayeux)^[1]

6. Samson (bishop of Worcester)^[5]^[6]

3. Isabel of Dover^[5]^[6]

The important bits of the ancestry are already in the article - that his father was Richard of Gloucester and his mother was a daughter of Sampson of Worcester. The rest of it isn't useful to understanding the life of Richard the bishop. Again - I point to WP:NOTGENEALOGY. We are not a genealogical work and should not present such information when biographies of the subject do not do so. Ealdgyth (talk) 12:04, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
