So shall it be with my father: he shall be called a prince over his posterity, holding the keys of the patriarchal priesthood over the kingdom of God on earth, even the Church of the Latter Day Saints, and he shall sit in the general assembly of patriarchs, even in council with the Ancient of Days when he shall sit and all the patriarchs with him and shall enjoy his right and authority under the direction of the Ancient of Days. |

RICHARD FITZ ALAN (or DE ARUNDEL), Knt., 8th Earl of Arundel, of the Castle and honor of Arundel, Sussex, of Clun and Oswestry, Shropshire, son and heir, born 3 Feb. 1266/7. He married about Nov. 1281/2 (date of correspondence regarding this marriage) ALICE (or ALASIA) DE SALUZZO, daughter of Tommaso I, Marchese di Saluzzo, by Aluisia, daughter of Giorgio, Marchese di Ceva. She was near kinswoman to Eleanor of Provence, wife of Henry III, King of England, who helped arrange this marriage. Richard and Alice had three sons, Edmund, Knt. [2nd Earl of Arundel], Richard, Knt., and John (clerk) (Canon of Chichester, Lichfield, Lincoln, Yark, & St. Paul's, London, papal chaplain, Warden of Tickhill Chapel, Yorkshire), and three daughters, Eleanor, Alice, and Margaret. In 1287 he was directed to raise foot soldiers to march against Rhys ap Meridith. He was created Earl of Arundel in 1289. His wife, Alice, died 25 Sept. 1292. In 1294 he was commander of the forces sent to relieve Bere Castle. He was summoned to Parliament 24 June 1295 by writ directed Ricardo filio Comiti ArundelI'. He fought in Gascony in 1295-1297, and in the Scottish wars, 1299 and 1300-1301. He fought at the Battle of Falkirk' 22 July 1298. He was present at the siege of Caerlaverock Castle in 1300. He signed Barons' letter to Pope Boniface in 1301 as Com' Arundel/. SIR RICHARD FITZ ALAN, 8th Earl of Arundel, died testate 9 March 1301/2. He and his wife, Alice, were buried at Haughmond Abbey, Shropshire. [Note: Earl Richard above, his father and grandfather all employed the surname FitzAlan. In the 1270's, Earl Richard's father was styled John "Fitz Alan de Arundel" in several records (see CPR 1272-1281 (1901): 11,96,161,331). In 1291 Earl Richard received a grant addressed to him as "Richard de Arundel, Earl of Arundel" (see CP. 1 (1910): 241). In the same period, 1291-1302, Earl Richard's brother, John, was likewise styled John de Arundel (see U. Rees Cartulary ofHaughmond Abbey (1985): 227). Following Earl Richard's death in 1302, the family dropped the surname FitzAlan in favor of de Arundel (or simply Arundel). The last use of the name FitzAlan by any member of this family dates c.1312-3, when Earl Richard's son, Edmund, brought a writ as "Edmund Fitz Alan" (see Year Books of Edward 11112 (Rolls Ser. 31b) (1905): 518-521; reference courtesy of P.M. Stewart). Thereafter, all further references to this family employ the surname Arundel to the complete exclusion of the surname Fitz Alan. Specifically, Earl Richard's son Edmund (died 1326), both of his brothers, two of his sons and all four of his grandsons all employed the Arundel surname. Edmund's sister Alice is likewise styled "de Arundel" in an ancient Segrave family pedigree. VCH Surrey 1 (1902): 348, footnote 1 observes that Richard's son and heir, Edmund, is "commonly called Fitz Alan but the real designation of the family was then de Arundel." N.H. Nicolas, a well known antiquarian, states: "This family presents a singular instance of adopting the name of their title as the surname of the family, for after the marriage of John Fitz-Alan, Lord of Clun, with Isabel, the sister and Co-heir of Hugh D' Albini, Earl of Arundel, all the descendants called themslves Arundel instead of Fitz-Alan" (see N.H. Nicolas Testamenta Vetusta 1 (1826): 105). For a contemporary instance of Earl Edmund (died 1326) being called de Arundel, see H.R. Luard Annales Monastici 4 (Rolls Series 36) (1869): 558-559. For an example of Edmund's brother, John, using the Arundel surname, see Cal. Inqs. Misc. 2 (1916): 334.

Arundel XI. 1272, 1289, or 1291. Richard Fitz Alan, fuedal Lord of Clun and Oswestry, and (according to the admission of 1433) Earl of Arundel, son and heir. He was born 3 Feb 1266/67, and was consequently only five years old at his father's death. He had seizin of his lands, 8 Dec. 1287. According to Glover (a most careful and learned genealogist...) he was created Earl of Sussex in 1289; when (being just of age) he was knighted and "received the sword of the county of Sussex" from Edward I "ut vocatur Comes;" but it seems more probable that this creation was as Earl of Arundel. At all events no more is head of the former title (Sussex) as connected with this family, but only of the title of Arundel. On 12 Feb 1290/1 there is a grant to him as Richard de Arundel, Earl of Arundel. In Oct. 1292 he was summoned by a writ directed to the Earl of Arundel, and was summoned to Parliament 24 June 1295, by a writ directed Ricardo filio Alani Comiti Arundell, ranking him as junior to all the other Earls. He fought in the Welsh wars 1288, in Gascony 1295-97, and in the Scottish wars 1298- 1300, being present at the siege of Carlaverock in 1300.
He signed the Barons' letter to the Pope, 12 Feb 1300/1. He married before 1285, (when he was by 18) Alasia, daughter of Tommaso I, Marquis of Saluzzo in Piedmont (1244-1299), by Luisa, daughter of Giorgio, Marquis of Ceva. She died 25 Sep 1292, and was buried at Todingham Priory. He died 9 Mar 1301/2, in his 36th year, and was buried with his ancestors.
