Mareschal or Marshall: "In England after the Conquest the marshalship was
hereditary in the family which derived its surname from the office." "The
marshall, as a military leader, was originally a subordinate officer...but
in the 12th century...the marshal has come to the forefront as commander
of the royal forces and a great officer of State." - Encyclopaedia's
Britannica, 1956 Ed., 7:829. Gilbert was Marshall in the court of King
Henry II and owned land in Wiltshire. For Gilbert and his son John and
family, see "William Marshal" [sic], Sidney Painter (Balt.: Johns Hopkins
Press, 1933), pp. 3-13.
