2ND/4TH EARL OF CHESTER
Ranulph De Meschines IV
  Sex: Male
Birth Date 1100 Castle Gernon or Capelle-les-Grands, Eure, Upper Normandy, France
Death Date  1153 St Werburgh, Chester, Cheshire, England (Supposedly poisoned by his wife and William Peverell, Lord of Nottingham.) 
Father Ranulph III de Gernon le Meschines 1st/4th Earl of CHESTER   Born: 1070 Died: 1153 DEC 16 
Mother Lucy Thoroldsdottir of Lincoln  Born: 1074 Died: 1136 
Ranulph De Meschines
Notes:
Apparently pious early in his life, the loss of lands to the Scots (in 1136) led to revolt against his king and his taking sides with Matilda, who also claimed the throne. There was a short reconciliation with the king in 1145/6 but after this he appeared to favour the Angevin cause. Whether Ranulph was so black a traitor as painted, or whether he was simply concerned with looking after his own house while the country fell apart is still the subject of much debate. Even after his death, Ranulfs ability to apparently "change sides" and stir up trouble seems to have been undiminished.
