    1. OLIVER de CAMPO ERNULFI (ERNULPHI). Dead by 1242/3 when his heirs are reported to be in possession of his lands in Ilfracombe, Burch, and Southcott, Devonshire (The Book of Fees, 2: 778, 784).
    He was married to Wymarca, living in 1238. She had a suit in 1232 regarding land in Gillescot, Devonshire (Curia Regis Rolls, 14: 428).

    Pole's Devon (p. 157) calls him a knight, but there is no evidence of this. Vivian (p. 160) states he married Eva, "da. of ..., cognata et coheses Isolda filia et coheridis Andrea, Baronis de Cardigan," that is, a relative and coheiress of Isolda, daughter and coheiress of Andrea, baroness of Cardinham. But this is not correct as Vivian has confused this Oliver with a distant cousin who was the son of Jordan de Campo Arnulphi and Emma de Soligny, sister of Isolda, wife of Andrew de Cardinham (CIPM, 4: no. 82).

    Children (De Banco Plea Rolls, Trinity 17 Edw. 3, m. 42):

    2. Sir Henry de Campo Arnulphi, m. Dionisia English.

    Note: Vivian (p. 180) also names a daughter, Elizabeth, wife of William Gilbert, but also shows her as daughter of a much later Oliver Champernoun and his wife Eglina de Valletort. The latter relationship is the correct one.

    GENERATION 2

    2. Sir HENRY de CAMPO ARNULPHI (CHAMBERNUN). Still a minor in 1242/3 when the lands of his late father were noted as being held by his heirs (Book of Fees, 2: 778, 784). Henry de Chambernun and Dionisia, his wife, were named in a land
    warranty of 6 June 1249 (Devon Feet of Fines 1196-1272: no. 497). On 9 Dec 1262, he was holder of the "Court of Henry and his heirs at Alfricumb" (Ilfracombe) where Henry himself was a plaintiff (Devon Feet of Fines, no. 472). On 24 Nov 1265, a mandate was issued to Henry de Chaumbren to deliver the castle to Ralph de Gorges (Cal. Patent Rolls, 1258-66, p. 508). On 16 Feb 1270, in a fine between Henry de Chaumbernun, claimant and Hugh de Treverbyn, deforciant, regarding the manors of Trevolonan, Tywardrayth, Ludevon (Ludgvan) and Penalym (Penhallyn in Jacobstow), Hugh acknowledged the manors that Henry held by gift of Isolda de Cardinham (Cornwall Feet of Fines 1195-1377, no. 222). As Lord of Ilfracombe, he presented there to the church in June 1263, June 1272, and Dec 1276; as Lord of Jacobstowe, Cornwall he presented there to
    the church in June 1270, then being called a knight, and in Sept 1272. As Lord of Coryton (Curitone) he presented there to the church in Sept 1279 (Bronescombe, pp. 127, 145, 146). On 22 April 1279 he was given a grant of a weekly market and a yearly fair at his manor of Ilfracombe (Cal. Charter Rolls, 2: 211). On 5 July 1277 he had protection going to Wales on the King's service (Cal. Patent Rolls, 1272-81, p. 217) and was last recorded as justice of the gaol delivery at Oxford and Exeter in May and July 1281 (Cal. Patent Rolls, 1272-81, p. 441, 445).
    Vivian (p. 160) states he married Dionisia, daughter of Gilbert and sister and coheiress of Sir Robert English or Engloiz, of Stokeley. He was certainly married to a Dionisia by June 1249 who survived her husband as Dame Dionisia de Campo Arnulphi when, in March 1284, she presented Oliver de Campo Arnulphi, subdeacon, presumably their son, as rector of Jacobstowe (Bronescombe, p. 347). Stockeley-Engles (Stockleigh-English) was in possession of her grandson, Henry, who presented to the church in April 1312.

    Children:

    3. Sir William de Champernoun, m. Joan.
    4. Sir Richard de Champernoun, m. Joan. See CHAMPERNOUN OF MODBURY.
    5. Oliver de Champernoun.

    GENERATION 3 (nos. 3-5)

    3. Sir WILLIAM de CHAMPERNOUN. Died before 21 Feb 1305 ... He was married to Joan.
