AUBRY [I] [Payen] de Mello (-[after 1106]). "Albericus…vocabatur Paganus de Marlo" donated milling revenue “de Hescerens, que de feodo comitis Domni martini erat” to Saint-Leu d’Esserent, with the consent of "uxore sua Adalaide" whose dowry it was, by charter dated to before 1107[1202]. Depoin states that “la parenté directe d’Aubri avec le chef de la maison de Mello ressort clairement du fait qu’au nombre de ses témoins il prit Gaubert curé de Boran, paroisse dont la seigneurie était en partie détenue, quelques années plus tard, par Gilbert II de Mello”[1203]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln, Aubry was the son of Gilbert [I] de Mello and that he predeceased his father[1204]. There appears no basis for affirming this affiliation, although the reference to “de Marlo” does appear to confirm that Aubry [I] was a member of the Mello family. Depoin states that “Aubri Payen peut être regardé comme un fils de Gilbert I qui mourut avant son père”[1205]. It is unclear how he concludes that Aubry must have predeceased his father, but whatever the reason in any case it cannot be concluded with certainty that Aubry was the son of Gilbert. m ADELA, daughter of ---. "Albericus…vocabatur Paganus de Marlo" donated milling revenue “de Hescerens, que de feodo comitis Domni martini erat” to Saint-Leu d’Esserent, with the consent of "uxore sua Adalaide" whose dowry it was, by charter dated to before 1107[1206]. "Uxor illius Adalaidis" donated the remaining part of the milling revenue, kept by "Albericus…Paganus de Marlo" during his lifetime, by undated charter[1207]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[1208], she was Adelade Dammartin Dame de Bulles, daughter of Hugues [I] Comte de Dammartin & his wife Roharde de Bulles, who married secondly Lancelin [II] de Beauvais. Presumably this hypothesis is based on the charter dated to before 1107 quoted above. However, that document could indicate that Adela belonged to a family which had been enfeoffed with the property in question by the comte de Dammartin. It appears that the hypothesis is unlikely to be correct as Agnes, wife of Lancelin, did not name her son Aubry de Mello in her foundation of the priory of Wariville which names her children by her supposed second husband. Aubry [II] & his wife had one child:]
