William de Chesney (sheriff)
William de Chesney (sometimes William of Norwich or William fitzRobert;〔 died 1174) was a medieval Anglo-Norman nobleman and sheriff. Son of landholder in Norfolk, William inherited after the death of his two elder brothers. He was the founder of Sibton Abbey, as well as a benefactor of other monasteries in England.

==Early life==
Chesney was the son of Robert fitzWalter and Sybil de Chesney, and a younger brother of John de Chesney.〔Keats-Rohan ''Domesday Descendants'' p. 370〕 Sybil was the daughter of Ralph de Chesney.〔Keats-Rohan ''Domesday Descendants'' p. 369〕 Robert fitzWalter was lord of Horsford in Norfolk,〔 which was originally held by Walter de Caen, Robert's father. The barony was assessed at 10 knight's fees.〔Brown "Introduction" ''Sibton Abbey Cartularies'' p. 7〕
Roger was the eldest brother of William, but died childless during their father's lifetime.〔Round "Early Sheriffs" ''English Historical Review'' p. 483–484〕 The next son, John, inherited the family lands, but died around 1149〔 without children.〔 William then inherited the lands.〔 John and William had a sister called Margaret, who was the wife of Haimo de St Clair.〔 Their father married a second time, and had a son named Simon by that marriage. William took his surname from his mother's family, as did his half-brother Simon, who was not related to the Chesney family except by marriage.〔Brown "Introduction" ''Sibton Abbey Cartularies'' p. 13〕 Two further children of Robert's, Elias and Peter, are known, but whether they were the children of the first marriage or the second is unclear.〔 Chesney should be distinguished from another William de Chesney,〔 who controlled the town of Oxford and its castle as well as the town of Deddington and its castle in the same time period.〔Crouch ''Reign of King Stephen'' p. 205〕
