In the charter for Sées Cathedral in February 1130–31 Henry I refers to Richard de Lucy and his mother, Aveline.
In 1153–4 De Lucy was granted Chipping Ongar, Essex by William, son of King Stephen and his wife, Maud of Boulogne.
Roger became a royal judge and later donated land to Lesnes Abbey in Kent, which had been founded by De Lucy.
[9] He resigned his office between September 1178 and Easter of 1179,[8] and retired to Lesnes Abbey, where, three months later on 14 July 1179, he died and was buried.
[5] This led to protracted litigation over his estate between Richard and Geoffrey's daughters that lasted until the reign of Henry III (r. 1216–1272).
