--- (de Balliol)

~ (name not recorded) First wife of Eustace de Balliol, married before 1194, mother of his sons Hugh, Ingram, Bernard and Henry (Liber Vitae of Durham). Her existence is inferred: Hugh was adult by c.1200 and his son John married in 1233, too early for a son of Eustace's 1194 marriage to Petronilla, widow of Robert FitzPiers.
