The Middleham fee and descendants of Ribald of Middleham and are
authoritatively covered in Charles Clay (ed.), Early Yorkshire
Charters, vol. 5 (Yorkshire Archaeological Society, 1936) pp.298-315.

Ribald's four sons appear in a charter of gift to St Mary's York dated
between 1121 and 1130, which was made with the concession of his son
and heir, Ralph Taillebois, and witnessed by his sons Hervi, Rainald
and William [Clay, p.306]. Only Ralph is referred to as 'Taillebois'
in the charter.

Cheers

Rosie
