Tab. Souv. Gen., France 22, Tab. 48; Dukes of Normandy, France 5, p. 117, 129; Dict. of Nat'l Biog., Eng. Pub. A, v. 39, p. 117, v. 61, p. 293; Plantagenet Ancestry, Eng. 116, p. 4, 8, 106, 127; Gen. Hist. 25, pt 1, p. 100-01. Note: Keiser und Koenig Hist. (Gen. Hist. 25) claim a daughter Mathilde, mother of Judith married to Waltheof, Earl of Northumberland. the Dictionary of National Biography under "Waltheof" claims his wife was the daughter of William the Conqueror's sister who married Enguerran, Count of Ponthieu. This cannot be true since Adele his wife was of Holland. Furthermore, Adelaide or Adele sister of William the Conqueror married Eudes II, Count of Champagne. It is presumed the above arrangement is more nearly correct.

In some sources Robert is referred to as the Earl of cornwall, but as pointed out in the Dict of Nat'l Biog (Eng. Pub. A), he was undoubtedly the greatest landowner of all the lords during the reign of William the Conqueror; it is not likely he received the title of Earl of Cornwall.
