After finding an entry on the Corrections to K S B Keats- Rohan Domesday Series mg.ac/Projects/Domesday/ made by Rosie Bevan some years ago, I discovered a link between a daughter of William de Boulogne and the Jocelin family, a link Ms. Bevan herself recognized at the time she made the entry. The unnamed daughter of William de Boulogne married Hugh de Boseville and they had two sons, William and Robert, both named in a charter of Faramus to the abbey of Bec (Dugdale, Monasticon Anglicanum Vol 4). Hugh's son William de Beseville was the father of Beatrice de Beseville who married Ralph Jocelin. I collaborated with Richard Joscelyne (president of Josselin Society), on a paper he wrote entitled the Jocelins and the Besevilles that presents this information. The paper was published by the Josselin Society (www.josselin.org.uk/)and is available there. A copy is also available in the library of the Society of Genealogists in London. Richard's previous research indicated a close family connection between the Jocelin/Beseville families and the Boulogne family. In combination with newly acquired information, documentation is provided for each link in the lineage below:
