Isabel de Clare, suo jure Countess of Pembroke and Striguil (1172 – 1220), was a Cambro-Norman-Irish noblewoman and one of the wealthiest heiresses in Wales and Ireland.[1] She was the wife of William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, who served four successive kings as Lord Marshal of England.
Isabel De Clare became heiress to her father’s lands after the untimely death of her brother. She was to inherit the lands in Wales as well as her father’s lands in Leinster. As with most Medieval marriages it was an arranged match but their story was to be a happy one, despite their age difference.
Isabel died in October 1239, and her grandson Gilbert "The Red" inherited her lands as well as the de Clare lands on the death of his father, Richard, in 1262. S ibilla (d ante 1238) married, before 1219, William de Ferrers, earl of Derby, and they had seven daughters.
Isabel de Clare was born in Leinster in 1172 to Aoife Mac Murrough and Richard de Clare (‘Strongbow’), Earl of Pembroke and Striguil. Following her brother Gilbert’s death in 1184, Isabel became sole heir and one of the wealthiest heiresses in the kingdom.
