I n June 1119, Henry I restored to him all his father's lands in Normandy. He resigned Ponthieu to his son Guy, in or after 1126, but before 17 October 1129, but retained the title of Count of Ponthieu. In 1135 Henry I, confiscated his Norman lands, whereupon William joined Geoffrey Plantagenet, with whom he invaded Normandy after the death of Henry I.
William married Ela, daughter of Eudes Borel, Duke of Burgundy, by Maud, sister of William Testard, Count of Burgundy. He died 30 June 1171.
