Rohese of Monmouth (Rohese de Monemue in Anglo-Norman; born about 1135/1140; died in or near 1180) was the daughter of Baderon fitzWilliam, lord of Monmouth, and of his wife Rohese de Clare. About the year 1155 Rohese married Hugh de Lacy, Lord of Meath. They had eight children
Rohese is notable for the gift that she made, jointly with her husband and her son Robert, to Monmouth Priory. The Priory had benefited for more than half a century from her family's generosity, and it was clearly at her persuasion that this donation took place. Three shillings were to be given to the priory each year on St Michael's Day from the revenues of the town of Lydney in Gloucestershire. Rohese's brother Gilbert, otherwise known as a patron of literature, was among the witnesses to this donation.
Rohese married Hugh DE LACY , Lord of Meath, 4th Baron Lacy, son of Gilbert DE LACY , Knight templar and Agnes OWRAM OF GAUNT, before 1155. (Hugh DE LACY , Lord of Meath, 4th Baron Lacy was born in 1120 in Herefordshire, England and died on 25 Jul 1186 in Durrow, Offaly, Ireland.)
