Notes - 1. Alberic de Vere 1st Baron de Vere was the son of Alphonse, Count de Chisnes and Married Beatrix daughter of Henry Cartesian of Bourgboug. In the the latter years of his life he became a monk and at his death was buried in the church of Colhe Priory which he founded.
Late medieval sources put forward claims of descent from Charlemagne through the Counts of Flanders or Guînes. In fact, the only connection of the Veres of England with Guînes in Flanders, was through a short-lived marriage; Aubrey I's grandson Aubrey de Vere III married Beatrice, heiress to the county of Guînes, in the 12th century.
