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.

The name Vaux, by the way, was usually written in Latin as Vallibus but I have seen it on rare occasions as Valle. Beatrice's maiden name is given as Valle in one charter I have seen.

Ada was the daughter of William, son and heir of Ranulph Engaine of Idsell, Cumberland and Ibria Trevers, daughter of Robert de Trevers, Lord of Burgh-by-Sands.
Note that in the above it's "Trivers" not "Estrivers". Not sure but it's possible that the latter is Latin & the former English...
Lazonby was brought into relations with the priory of Lanercost by Ada Engayne and afterwards bestowed by her son Hugh de Morville, and that of Denton by Buethbarn, the lord of the place. Ada Engayne granted an annuity of three marks out of
the revenues of the churches of Burgh-by-Sands and Lazonby for the souls of William Engayne her father and Eustachia her mother, and for the soul of Simon her late husband, to which Christian, Bishop of Withern and Robert, Archdeacon of
Carlisle were parties." [Reg. of Lanercost, MS v. 4-6; ii 15-16; iii 1-2; xii 26] VCH Cumberland, v. 2 p. 153
