”WILLIAM de Briouse (-hanged 2 May 1230). A manuscript which narrates the descents of the founders of Lanthony Abbey names “Willielmus de Brews quartus” as son of “Reginaldus de Brews” and his wife “filiam domini Willielmus de la Bruere”. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Willelmus de Braosa" holding one knight´s fee "in Eadburgetone" in Kent in [1210/12]. Henry III King of England granted "honore de la Cnappe et de…Bremble", relinquished by "Reginaldus de Braosa", to "Willelmo de Braosa filio et heredi suo" dated 7 Aug 1218. "Willelmi de Braosa" gave homage to King Henry III for lands "que Reginaldus de Braosa pater suus de rege tenuit in capite" dated 13 Jul 1228. The Annals of Tewkesbury record that “W. de Breuse filius Reginaldi de Breuse” was captured by “Lewelinum” in 1228. The Chronicle of the Princes of Wales records that "William Bruse was hanged by Llywelyn son of Iorewerth, having been caught in the chamber of the prince with the princess Jannet, daughter of King John and wife of the prince" in 1230. The Annals of Dunstable record that “Willelmus de Brause” was captured and hanged by “Leulino” in 1230. The Annals of Tewkesbury record that “Lewelinus princeps Norwalliæ” captured and hanged “Willelmum de Breuse filium Reginaldi” after Easter in 1230. The Annals of Margan record that “Lewelinus” captured and killed “Willelmum de Brewsa juniorem” in 1230, adding that it was partly motivated by his old hatred of “progenitorurum suorum…Willelmi de Brewas senioris et Matildis de Sancto Walerico uxoris suæ” who had killed many Welsh people, which confuses William de Briouse, son of Reynold, with his cousin William de Briouse, son of William. m EVA Marshal, daughter of WILLIAM Marshal Earl of Pembroke & his wife Isabel Ctss of Pembroke ([1200/10]-before 1246). The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire records that "quinta filia…Willihelmi Marescalli…Eva" married "Willielmo de Brewes" If it is correct tt that Eva was her parents´ fifth daughter, she would have been born after [1200]. A manuscript which narrates the descents of the founders of Lanthony Abbey names “Willielmus de Brews quartus” married “Evam filiam domini Willielmi Mareschalli”i”. Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by a letter from "L. princeps" to "domino W. Marescallo comiti Penbrochiæ" assuring him that he still wishes the proposed marriage between "neptem vestram et filium nostrum David" to take place. King Henry III granted "in villa de Haya" to "Eve de Braose" dated 6 Jun 1232. William & his wife had four children.”, ,
From the Dictionary of Welsh Biography, article titled “Braose Breos, Brause, Briouse, Brewes, etc.) family, written by Emeritus Prtofessor William Rees (1887-1978), regarding William, the 7th baron, husban d of Eva Marshall: “He was captured by Llywelyn the Great in 1228 during trhe campaign in Kerry, but was released on payment of a ransom. He further agreed to the marriage of his daughter, Isabel, with David, son of Llywelyn. Later, on a visit to Llywelyn’s court, he was involved in an intrigue with Llywelyn’s wife and was hanged (3 May 1230). With his death the male line of this, the main, branch of the family ceased, and the inheritance was divided between his four daughters, the family name surviving in the line of John de Braose, baron of Gower and Bramber.”
