Robert d’Umfraville was formally granted the barony of Prudhoe by Henry I but it is likely that the Umfravilles had already been granted Prudhoe in the closing years of the11th century.

Robert was also called Robert II fitz Robert de Umfraville, Baron of Prudhoe.

He appears to have been named from Offranville at Dieppe, Seine-Maritime, France.

Robert appeared to have regularly been at the court of King David of Scotland (1124- 1153), which indicates that he held land in Scotland.

He must be the Umfreville who built Harbottle on the river Coquet and Prudhoe castle in 1130.

He was granted, by King Henry I, the barony of Prudhoe at Northumberland.

He appeared in a pipe roll when he was pardoned 40 shillings for Danegeld by brief of the King in 1130.

He was Baron of Prudhoe at Northumberland, England, between 1130 and 1145.

He was alive to sign charters of Henry Percy, Duke of Northumberland, in 1139.
