p113: [1100] "...There is some evidence that, after the burial of William [II Rufus] further discussion took place among the barons who were present, as to whether they would support Henry or not, and that this was decided in his favour largely by the influence of Henry of Beaumont, Earl of Warwick, son of his father's [William I Conqueror] friend and counsellor, the Count of Meulan..."
p128: [1101] "...His faithful friends, Robert, Count of Meulan, and his brother Henry, Earl of Warwick, were among the few whom he could trust. But his most important support he found, as his brother William had found it in similar circumstances, in the mass of the nation which would now be even more ready to take the side of the king against the Norman party."
p204: [1136] "...The powerful house of Beaumont, the earls of Warwick and Leicester, who held almost a kingdom in middle of England, promised to be as faithful to the new sovereign [Stephen] as it had been to earlier ones..."
