Bertram de Verdon, eldest son, was Sheriff of Leicester from 16th to 30th of Henry II's reign, inclusive. He subsequently attended King Richard I to the Holy Land and was at the siege of Acon, which place, upon its surrender, was committed to his custody. This Bertram founded the Abbey of Croxden in County Stafford, anno 1776, and was otherwise a liberal benefactor to the church. He married 1st Maud, daughter of Robert Ferrers, Earl of Derby, by whom he had no issue, and 2ndly, Roesia ....., but of what family is unknown. He died at Joppa 4th of Richard I in 1192, having had issue William, died sine prole, in 1199, Thomas, Bertram, Robert, Nicholas and Walter. His son Thomas succeeded him, but died sine prole in 1199, and was succeeded by his brother, Nicholas.
(Kin of Mellcene Thurman Smith, page 419-420)
He lived at time of Henry II. This Bertram built the medieval castle of Alton in 1176 and founded the cistercian abbey of Croxden. Bertram was a deeply religious man accompanying king Henry on his pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostella in North of Spain. After the John's first expedition to Ireland, Bertram held the town of Dundalk and several castles in Louth.
After Henry’s death Bertram remained an influential figure with Richard I and became his castellan. He went on the Third Crusade with Richard, was governor of Saint-John of Acre, and was killed at Jaffa in 1191.
