Helie de Semur - Greybeard's Ghosts

Commentary

In Line 108-22, Weis lists the mother of Henry as Helie who was born in 1028 and died in 1109, and who was the second wife of Robert. In Line 110-22, Weis states they were married about 1033. These must be in error as she would have only been 5 years old at that date.

Cawley states that she was Robert's first wife, and married about 1033, but also that she was born around 1015 and died in 1055. There marriage was repudiated about 1049. Henry was born about 1034.
