Notes:

Birth: For William d'Arques to be born in 1010 the son of Papie. He would have to have been born illegitmate to Richard 11 the 4th Count of Normandy as Richard 11 was married to Judith who did not die until 1017. He then married a second wife and they divorced before 1024 and he married Papie in 1824.
Archbishop Mauger and Count William occupied themselves with increasing their wealth and power in their new respective positions, independent of Duke William.[7] But William of Talou continued to intrigue in plots against his young nephew, being careful his name did not come up in any of the revolts or conspiracies.[8] But in 1049 at the battle of Domfront, Count William of Talou deserted his suzerain Duke William in the midst of the battle,[9] and denouncing his oath of vassalage he returned to his castle at Arques and began organizing his own rebellion.[10] Duke William repeatedly sent messengers summoning his uncle, Count William, to attend him and show his allegiance; but in his arrogance the Count of Talou scorned each of these and secured himself in his castle.[11] The events that followed are as recalled by the Conqueror himself in his deathbed speech in 1087:

My uncles, Mauger, archbishop of Rouen, and his brother William, to whom I had gratuitously given Arques and the county of Talou, treated me with contempt as a bastard, and induced King Henry and Engelran, count of Penthieu, to take up arms against me. I received this intelligence in the Cotentin, and lost no time in beginning my march contrary to the opinions of most of my advisers. Sending forward to Arques some light troops who were eager for the fray, I followed myself with the main body, which was far from considerable, to lay siege to the castle. But before I reached the country between the two rivers, the Sie and Garenne, the advanced guard fell in with Count Engelran pushing forward to occupy the fortress, and killed him, fighting bravely, for he was a valiant knight, and routed his squadrons. Pressing the siege closely, I compelled the perjured count to go into banishment, and did not permit him to return to the domains he lost during all the days of his life. I also, by virtue of a papal decree, deposed the insolent archbishop, who neither observed his fealty to me, nor his duty to God, and raised to the see the venerable monk Maurilius who was providentially sent from Florence, an Italian city.[12]

William of Talou's rebellion lasted from 1052 to 1054 at which time he was expelled from Normandy and fled to the court of Eustace II, Count of Boulogne.[13] Both uncles, William of Talou and Mauger, despite being defeated and exiled were provided with generous incomes to live on by the Conqueror.[5] William was the last Count of Talou.[14]

William married de Ponthieu, Aleida in 1029. Aleida was born in 1012 in Abbeville, Oise, Picardie, France; died in DECEASED. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
