BEAUMONT. Roger de Belmont appears in Domesd. as a chief tenant in cos. Dorset and Gloucester. According to Sir H. Ellis, he was a near kinsman of the Conqueror, being a lineal descendant of that king's great grandfather. Some trace the noble English families from the Viscounts Beaumont of Normandj-, and others from the blood-royal of France. The Itin. de la Normandie gives five places in that province called Beaumont, i. e., ' the fair or beautiful hill,' and there are English parishes, &c., so called in cos. Cumberland, Essex, and Leicester. In charters the name is -(vritten De Bello Monte.
