• Notes

  Rohese is notable for the gift that she made, jointly with her husband a n d h e r s o n Robert, to Monmouth Priory. The Priory had benefited for mor e t h a n h a lf a century from her family's generosity, and it was clearly a t h e r p e r suauasion that this donation took place. Three shillings were t o b e g i v e n to the priory each year on St Michael's Day from the revenue s o f t h e t o wn of Lydney in Gloucestershire. Rohese's brother Gilbert, o th er w i s e known as a patron of literature, was among the witnesses to th i s d o n a tion.
