Notes
Although traditionally presented to be a common tradesman (a Tanner), Fuhlburt appears to have been a minor son of Guy I de Tonnerre and employed as the Duke's Chamberlain at the castle of Falaise. Thus the story Duke William's bastardy by the daughter of a common "Tanner" was in actuality not as common as represented in modern romantic literature. Although his mother is yet unidentified, the name Fulbert is Frankish in origin and he likely had a Sahlien mother. His sister's mother is identified as Adele de Sahlien.
The Roman Catholic Duke of Normandy would hardly have been in a position to have his Union with Harelette, half Frankish/Arian and half Scottish/Celtic Catholic blessed by the Church in France. The shame of William the Conquerer's parentage had less to do with his mother's social status than it did with the fact that the Pope refused to recognize his parents' "Common Law Marriage." The label William the Bastard came not from the nobles of France, but directly from the Pope and had nothing to do with his mother's "low birth".
The Scottish clan histories of MacEth and MacBeth indicate Fulbert Tanner's widow (Doda) returned to Scotland from Normandy following her husband's death and that Doada subsequently married the Mormaer of Moray. This would indicate that that Tonnerre's daughter Arlette (a noble name) was likely the half sister of Macbeth.
The Nickname Tanner
Like Henry the Fowler, it is possible that Fuhlbert may have been the butt of a long running joke involving a play on word with this surname "Tonnerre" being rendered "Tanner" by the tongue of the Norman nobles.
