Join: British Royals and Aristocrats Project
Discuss: BRITISH_ARISTO
He founded the priory at Bridlington circa 1114 and was a member of Henry I's Council in 1121/22 and Sep 1131. He was at Stephen's Easter court 1136, and fought at the battle of Standard in 1138. In addition to Gilbert, his son and successor, he had sons Robert, Baldwin, and Geoffrey. It should be noted that Ancestral Roots states that Walter married Maud/Matilda "by 1120", the latter date being given by Complete Peerage as the approximate date of birth of their heir, Gilbert. Chronologically, Agnes de Gaunt, shown as first child was likely not their daughter; Douglas Richardson believes Agnes is more likely to be either Walter's daughter by an earlier, unknown first wife, or Walter's sister, and that this issue needs further research.
Accompanied David, Earl of Huntington later (King David 1) Anglicizing the Lowlands in the early 1100's. In 1116 he witnessed an Inquisition for the See of Glasgow. THE PEERAGE.
Death and Burial
(Royal Ancestry) Richardson states that Walter de Gant died as monk at Bardney Abbey in 1139. But he was the founder of Bridlington Priory in East Riding, Yorkshire, and the Bridlington homepage has the following about his possible burial at Bridlington: There is a Founders Stone at the Priory and it was probably the cover of the tomb of Walter de Gant, who founded the priory in1113. In keeping with the custom of those days, as Founder of a church, his remains were buried before the high altar of the Priory which he founded and endowed. This probability is increased by the carved representation of a section of a church, showing three arches, thus associating it with the Founder. [1]
