Abstract:Compatriots of king's foreign wives often benefited from the queen's access to patronage and expatriate communities developed, but it is rare to be able to trace these networks in the central Middle Ages. An early example is the group that gathered around the second wife of King Henry I (1100-35), Adeliza of Louvain, who settled in Sussex after the king's death. Clerics from Adeliza's household became successful in the English church and the women who accompanied her married into the Anglo-Norman nobility. Adeliza was herself the ancestress of the earls of Arundel through her second marriage to William d'Aubigny, while her half-brother, Joscelin, was the founder of the Percy family.
