Pg 119, Hugh Bigod, Earl of Norfolk (Bigod 30)17289
Pg 122, 30. Hugh Bigod who, to have lived a full life and died a natural death, had the most checkered career I have found among our peerage lines: “On the death of Henry I, 1 Dec 1135 Hugh returned to England and declared on oath before the Archbishop of Canterbury that the late King when in extremis had disinherited his daughter and nominated Stephen as his heir; whereupon the Archbishop agreed to consecreate Stephen.” In1140 (c 45) Hugh rebelled and Stephen marched against him and took Bungay castle however they came to terms and Hugh was created Earl of Norfolk. He was in the King's army at the battle of Lincoln 2-2-1141, but “was one of the nobles whose troops were routed and who fled at the first onset” and went over to the Empress Maud; “but in 1148 Stephen fell on him unexpectedly, routed his forces and laid waste his lands.” There must have been a reconciliation, because “in 1153, during the invasion by the Duke of Normandy, afterwards Henry II. Hugh took the opportunity to rebel once more, and seized Ipswich Castle.” whereupon “Stephen marched to Ipswich … and forced Hugh to surrender.” and “in Nov 1153 Hugh attested the treaty by which Stephen recognized Henry as his successor … But when Stephen was dead and Henry was safely seated on the throne, the new King evidently refused to recognize Stephen's charter to Hugh, for he created him in 1155 Earl of Norfolk de novo”; but, “for some reason unknown, Henry required the surrender of his castles in 1157.... In Jul 1166 Hugh wax excommunicated by the Pope for his refusal to restore lands belonging to Pentney Priory...; but in Apr 1167 the Pope authorized his absolution. In 1169 Hugh was again excommunicated, this time by Thomas Becket; but in Dec 1170 was absolved by the Bishop of Norfolk.” In 1173 (78) Hugh joined the conspiracy against Henry II, and “his possession of the strongholds of Framlingham, Bungay and Walton, and his energy in his old age, made him one of the most formidable of the rebels. When the Earl and Countess of Leicester landed in England with an army of Flemings, they stayed for some days with Hugh at Framlingham Castle. After their defeat and capture near Fornham in Oct the King's generals concentrated large forces... with a view to reducing Hugh through his want of supplies; but the Earl obtained a truce, on condition of dismissing his Flemings, until the following May. The truce expired just in time for him to receive a new Flemish force. In Jun 1174 he led them against Norwich and on 18 Jun stormed it, massacred a large number of the inhabitants, and sacked and burnt the city. In Jul the King mustered a large army (but) Hugh surrendered and did homage. He was apparently restored to favor, for in 1175 .. he witnessed a royal charter …; but in 1176 the King destroyed Hugh's castles of Framingham and Bungay.”

Pg 32 Hugh Bigod created Earl of Norfolk in Dec 1140 or Jan 1141. He was excommunicated by the Pope in Jul 1166, but received absolution Apr 1167; in 1169 he was again excommunicated, this time by Thomas Becket, but in Dec 1170, he was absolved by the Bishop of Norwich. His possible possession of the strongholds of Framlingham, Bungay and Walton, and his energy in his old age, made him one of the most formidable rebels in England.54763
