She was a child bride of Ralph Fitzbernard, married to him in 1222 in Kingsdown, Kent, England.  She died 1228 in Kingsdown, Kent, England. --  Bradley Family, /freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hwbradley/aqwg2456.htm#52445  Here are Eleanor de Curcelles' parents: Wandril de CURCELLES was born 1180 in Frome, Somerset, England.

Ralph married Joan AGUILLON on 1229 in Kingsdown, Kent, England. --  Bradley Family, http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hwbradley/aqwg1805.htm  Note that most sources I have seen report Ralph as born in 1205-1214.  This date of 1198 is the earliest birth date I have seen for him.  This Bradley sources provides excellent details, but unfortunately provides no sourcing or documentation by which to evaluate or compare.
