  • Notes 
    • Geoffrey the Marshal, son and heir [of Miles], succeeded his father in or before 1070, and with his (unnamed) brother or brothers sold to St. Stephen's, Caen, a strip of cultivated land situated between the 2 branches of the Odon at Venoix and a tenant there. He gave abbot William (1070-79) the land in which the monks had made a channel of the Odon and the claim derived from it. In 1086 he held land in chief at East Worldham, Hants, as Geoffrey the Marshal, and as Geoffrey he held lands at Draycot, Wilts. His wife's name is unknown, but he is presumably father or grandfather of Robert de Venoix, who unsuccessfully claimed the office of Master Marshal against Gilbert the Marshal under Henry I. [Complete Peerage XI:Appendix E:123]

      Son of Goisfrid De Bec and Lesceline (surname unknown). He had 2 wives: (No Name) and Aline Pipard - who was mother of his two sons. He was father of Gilbert (Fitz-Geoffrey) "The Marshal" Fitzrobert and Ilbert ou Gilbert "The Marshall". He was full-brothe
