  Notes	Robert de Ros, 1st Baron de Ros of Helmsley, (c. 1213 - 13 May 1285) was an English nobleman. He was grandson to Sir Robert de Ros and Isabel, an illegitimate daughter of William I of Scotland by Isabel Avenal. He was son to Sir William de Ros (d. c. 1264/1265) and Lucy FitzPiers, daughter of Piers FitzHerbert and Alice FitzRoger. He was summoned to Parliament in 1264, during the reign of Henry III. He was married to Isabel d'Aubigny, rich heiress and granddaughter of William d'Aubigny. They lived at of Belvoir in Leicestershire and reportedly had eight children: William de Ros, 2nd Baron de Ros (1255-1317). Isabel de Ros (c. 1244 - 12 June 1356. Married de Fauconberge. Mary de Ros (1245 - 23 May 1326). Third wife of William de Braose, son of John de Braose and Margaret ferch Llewellyn. Joan de Ros (c. 1252 - 13 October 1348). Married John Lovell, 1st Baron Lovell of Tichmarch. Avelina de Ros. Married Sir John de Bohun of Midhurst. Robert de Ros (1265-1361). Married "Ernberge". John de Ros, Bishop of Carlisle (d. 1332). Nicholas de Ros. On 3 July 1257, Ros obtained from Henry III a grant of the free warren, in the lordship of Belvoir, by which the boundary was determined. In 1258, he was actively employed in Scotland, in delivering King Alexander III of Scotland out of the hands of his rebellious subjects; and at Chester, in resisting the hostile invasions of Llewelyn the Last. In the same year, he and his lady Isabel had a controversy with the Prior and Convent of Belvoir, relative to the right of presentation to the Church of Redmile (near Bottesford), which was amicably compromised by their relinquishing the patronage to the convent, for a certain compensation. In 1261 he obtained from the king the grant of a weekly market, to be held at Belvoir, on Tuesday; and of an annual fair on the feast of St John the Baptist, to continue for three days. In 1264, he was one of the insurgent barons who defeated Henry III at the battle of Lewes, and took him and the prince prisoner, confining them in Hungerford Castle. In 1264, de Ros was summoned to the parliament, which was called by the barons in the king's name. He died in 1285, and was buried at Kirkham Priory.
