Birth*circa 1130 Louvain, Belgium1 
Marriage*after 1154 Principal=Agnes de Percy1,2,3 
Death*before Michaelmas 1180 | when his honor of Petworth was taken into the King's hands.1,3 
DNB* Louvain, Joscelin de (d. 1180), magnate, was the youngest son of Godefroi, duke of Lotharingia (or Brabant; d. 1140) and count of Louvain. He first appears at Reading, with his elder sister, the widowed queen, Adeliza of Louvain, when on 1 December 1136 she made a grant to the abbey on the anniversary of Henry I's death. It seems likely that he had only recently come to England so that his sister might make his fortune for him. On his father's death in 1140 Louvain had no portion of the paternal estate, which his elder brothers Duke Godfrey (d. 1144) and Count Henry (retired 1149) divided between them.

The queen made use of Louvain as her deputy in her lands. His usual title was ‘the castellan’ or ‘the castellan of Arundel’, which implies that the queen had adopted the Brabazon method of local government at Arundel, confiding power to castellans (such as those at Brussels and Louvain). To maintain his status he had a grant of a large estate at Petworth in Sussex to which were attached twenty-two knights' fees. Louvain seems to have worked well with his sister's second husband, William d'Aubigny, called earl of Arundel, Chichester, or Sussex after 1140. He frequently attested his brother-in-law's charters, and continued to do so long after his sister's death in 1151.

Despite the queen's death, Louvain's career in England continued to prosper. He was among those favoured magnates whose future support was solicited by Duke Henry in his 1153 progress around England. Following Henry's accession he became a frequent witness to royal acts. It may have been this connection which provided him with his marriage (before 1166) to Agnes, coheir of William de Percy, a leading Yorkshire baron. Louvain was involved with the Becket affair, being one of three royal knights who were sent to warn Becket, just before his death in 1170, not to go to meet Prince Henry, the Young King, at Woodstock. He was loyal to Henry II during the rebellion of 1173–4. In April 1175 he led a party of Sussex and Hampshire knights to join the count of Flanders on his pilgrimage to the Holy Land. While in Palestine, one of his party, Henry Hose, died, and Louvain himself sealed Henry's testament and sent it back to England with Hugh Hose, brother of the deceased. On his return Louvain succeeded to his portion of the Percy honour. The inquest before royal justices establishing this share survives, and demonstrates that his interest at court obtained for him the lion's share: the lowland estates in Yorkshire, the centres of Topcliffe and Seamer, and the Percy lands in Lincolnshire and Hampshire.

Louvain died early in 1180, probably in his early sixties. His wife survived him for over twenty years and did not remarry. They had three legitimate sons, Henry de Percy (d. c.1198), Richard de Percy (d. 1244), and Joscelin, as well as four daughters. Ralph ‘the castellan's son’ who appeared as holder of lands in the honour of Petworth in 1190 was probably an illegitimate son.

DNB* Fitzgerald, Maurice (d. 1176), soldier, was the son of Gerald of Windsor, castellan of Pembroke, and Nest, daughter of Rhys ap Tewdwr, king of Deheubarth (south Wales). He was thus uterine half-brother of Robert fitz Stephen, paternal uncle of Raymond fitz William Fitzgerald (Raymond le Gros) (d. 1189x92), and maternal uncle of Meiler fitz Henry and Gerald of Wales, who recounted his deeds with great partiality. Gerald linked him with the cantred of Llansteffan, an association supported by a mandate of Bernard, bishop of St David's (1115–48), ordering him not to interfere with the land of Pentywyn which he had confirmed to the priory of St John, Carmarthen. When Llansteffan Castle fell to the Welsh in 1146, its recapture was attempted unsuccessfully by ‘the sons of Gerald’, among whom, no doubt, Maurice may be numbered.

In 1167 Fitzgerald mediated with Rhys ap Gruffudd, king of Deheubarth, for the release from captivity of Robert fitz Stephen, on condition that he would go to fight in Ireland, and was himself recruited by Diarmait Mac Murchada, exiled king of Leinster, to help recover his kingdom, on promise of a grant of Wexford and two adjoining cantreds to Robert fitz Stephen and himself. In autumn 1169 he landed at Wexford with ten knights, thirty mounted archers, and about a hundred foot archers. In the company of Mac Murchada he went to the relief of Ó Mórda, king of Laigis, against Mac Gilla Pátraic, king of Osraige, who had recruited Maurice de Prendergast, and, early in 1170, campaigned with Mac Murchada in the vicinity of Dublin where the surrounding districts were laid waste, resulting in the submission of the citizens. Gerald of Wales depicted Mac Murchada suggesting marriage to his daughter, Aífe, to Robert fitz Stephen and to Fitzgerald in turn; but as both men already had legal wives, they were obliged to decline. It is likely that Gerald invented this sequence to explain why, if Gerald's own relatives had achieved so much, Mac Murchada was still anxious to secure the personal intervention of Richard fitz Gilbert, earl of Pembroke and lord of Striguil, known as Strongbow.

Following the taking of Waterford by Strongbow and his marriage to Aífe in August 1170, Fitzgerald joined him at Waterford, arriving in the company of Mac Murchada and Robert fitz Stephen. In 1171 he was one of the defenders in the two-month siege of Dublin by Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair, king of Connacht, and claimant to the high-kingship. Gerald of Wales depicts him making an exhortatory speech arguing that the besieged could not look to succour from England, for ‘just as we are English as far as the Irish are concerned, likewise to the English we are Irish’ (Giraldus Cambrensis, Expugnatio, 80–81), and urging a vigorous attack on Ua Conchobair's forces, which was inspired partly by anxiety for the safety of Robert fitz Stephen and his own (probably second) wife and children, who had been left in the garrison at Carrick, Wexford. Three companies, in the third of which were Fitzgerald and the earl, as well as two of Fitzgerald's sons, Gerald and Alexander, then mounted a surprise attack on Ua Conchobair's decamped army. Henry II, during his visit to Ireland in 1171–2, reserved Wexford as royal demesne, thus overriding Mac Murchada's grant to Fitzgerald. Before his departure, Henry assigned him to the Dublin garrison under Hugh de Lacy and at some time before 1173 granted him the middle cantred of Uí Fáeláin in which Naas was situated, possibly only in custody, since it was to be restored to Strongbow as lord of Leinster by Henry II about 1173. Fitzgerald was present at the hill of Tlachtga, Meath, when Tigernán Ó Ruairc, king of Bréifne, was killed during negotiations with Hugh de Lacy, Fitzgerald supposedly saving Lacy's life by having been forewarned by a dream of his nephew, Griffin, of an impending treacherous attack by Ó Ruairc. He returned to Wales, but was recalled by Strongbow, who enfeoffed him in the middle cantred of Uí Fáeláin, and lands in Wicklow between Bray and Arklow (where he, in turn, granted lands to Meiler fitz Henry). Fitzgerald's brother, David fitz Gerald (d. 1176), bishop of St David's, granted him stewardship (dapiferatum) of the lands of the see of St David's.

Fitzgerald's daughter Nest married Hervey de Montmorency and his son William (d. c.1199) married Alina, daughter of Strongbow. He died at Wexford about September 1176 and was succeeded by William, whose tenure of the middle cantred of Uí Fáeláin (but not Wicklow) was confirmed to him in 1185 by Henry II's son John, lord of Ireland. Gerald of Wales depicted William fitz Aldelin as royal custodian of Leinster during the minority of Strongbow's heirs, forcing Fitzgerald's sons to give up Wicklow Castle in exchange for the castle of Ferns. It is probable, however, that Gerald obscured the distinction between custody and hereditary grant and that Fitzgerald had merely had custody of the castle of Wicklow. His son Gerald fitz Maurice Fitzgerald (d. 1204) married Eva of Bermingham and succeeded to the lordship of Offaly (Uí Failge) in right of his wife; and his son Thomas fitz Maurice Fitzgerald (d. c.1213) was ancestor of the earls of Desmond.
