Name Variation Beatrice de Vaux was also found as Beatrice de Vallibus de Vaux.2 
Birth* circa 1160 Beatrice was born circa 1160 at Gilsland, Irthington, Cumberland, England. The following information was contained in a post-em by Curt Hofemann, curt_hofemann@yahoo.com:

Beatrice de Valle (or Vaux), wife of William Briwerre, was almost certainly the daughter of Hubert de Vaux, baron of Gilsland (see ID 20718?), Cumberland, by his wife, Grace.

The evidence for this is slim but compelling. Beatrice had property in Devonshire as her maritagium. The early history of this property is shrouded.

However, Hubert de Vaux is known to have owned property in Devonshire, and probably lived there during part of his life. Beatrice de Valle had a daughter Grace Briwerre who I presume was named for her mother, Grace de Vaux. Grace was rather rare as a woman's name in that period. I have proven that William Briwerre acquired property from one of Beatrice's Vaux brothers and I have proven that William Briwerre was involved in a suit with the widow of another brother. If nothing else, this proves that the two families knew each other well.2 
AssocWith* before 1174 Beatrice was associated with Reynold FitzRoy though not married.2 
Marriage* circa 1175 Beatrice de Vaux married William de Briwere, son of Henry de Briwere of Stoke and Daughter of Walton, circa 1175. This appears to have been a first marriage for Beatrice tho' she did have a relationship and child before this marriage.

From Curt Hofeman
I should also note that Beatrice de Valle was almost certainly the mother of Henry Fitz Count, bastard son of Reginald, Earl of Cornwall. This is indicated by two successive charters which unfortunately I don't have in hand. In these two charters, Henry Fitz Count makes a gift to some religious house and in the next charter, Beatrice's Briwerre son refers back to his "brother" without naming him, as if the parties understood who he meant. This would only make sense if the two charters were recorded at the same time and if Henry Fitz Count was the "brother" named by Beatrice's Briwerre son. The charters are published in Monasticon Exoniensis.1,2
