I have two lines from this famous couple - son Sir Robert de Beaumont, 2nd Earl of Leicester and daughter Elisabeth (Isabella) de Beaumont, who at a very young age, and prior to her marriage, was a mistress of King Henry I. King Henry 'gave her away' at her wedding. Her husband was the historically famous Gilbert Strongbow Fitz Gilbert de Clare.
I also have ancestors from Elizabeth de Vermandois' 2nd marriage to William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey, with whom she committed adultry while still married to Robert de Beaumont. A famous case much written about. I have two ancestors from her marriage to William de Warenne - son William de Warenne, 3rd Earl of Surrey, and daughter Ada de Warenne, who maried Henry of Scotland, 3rd Earl of Huntingdon and younger son of King David I of Scotland.
