Notes
Following his father into royal service, Cantilupe demonstrated by his a p p o i n tments as arbitrator and diplomatic representative, and above all a s a c u s t o dian of the kingdom in the king's absence, the continuing trus t in a n d r e l iance upon his household which Henry III showed in the late 1 230 s a n d 1 2 40s. His obtaining the custody of Eva de Briouz e shows the r e wa r d s a vailable to those close to the king, and made th e Cantilupes f o r a t i m e a p ower on the Welsh march.
