Geoffrey I de Clinton's father was likely William de Semilly who held
Glympton at the DD survey which was named "Glintona" at the time of DD
Survey. Geoffrey de Clinton I, is shown in a Caens Scripta Charter as
using the exact name of Glintona. The church of Glympton was donated to
the foundation of Kenilworth,founded by Geoffrey de Clinton.

His grandfather went by Corbo / Corbon / and Corvi in Charters.

Corbo de Semilly married the sister of Neel de Brevand

Corbo donated land of his wifes dower at d'Asnieres

Rauol d'Asnieres was a son of Corbo who confirmed his gift.

Neel de Brevand names a brother as Gilbert d'Asnieres.

https://thesauri.unicaen.fr/autorites/personnes/doc/pddn_p.202108021010490170200.html

Neel de Brevand and Asceline had a son Roger( I suspect he is Roger de
Virey)

This Raoul d'Asnieres was the likely heir of Gilbert d'Asnieres.

William de Semilly sold land at d'Asnieres to Raoul d'Asnieres. This
transfer needed the consent of William Collumbries.

It's thought that William Collumbries is a nephew of Adeliza Rumilly who
had brothers Robert and Geoffrey de Rummily.

William Collombeies is named "William Collumbries son of Gosfridi son of Ranfredi". He likely took his mothers name of Collumbries.

Adeliza de Rummily held and gifted land at d'Asnieres.

The overlord of Corbo de Semilly for some of his lands was William de
Brucourt.

William de Brucourt had brother named Gilbert de Brucourt who married an Adeliza.

Corbon is a place that is just south of Brucourt.

Geoffrey de Clinton II was a a vassal of Hamelin de Brecey and held land
at Brecia (wrongly Spelled as Brencia).

Virey was ceded by Ralph de Fougeres to Ranulf de Virey , Hamelin de
Brecy is a nephew of Ranulf de Virey

I have links to the charters if requested to post.

Followup on Corbo , he also went by "Corb"
as seen in this charter below.

« Acte 6093 », dans SCRIPTA. Base des actes normands médiévaux, dir.
Pierre Bauduin, Caen, CRAHAM-MRSH, 2010-2024. En ligne : https://mrsh.unicaen.fr/scripta/doc/sc_6093.html [consulté le 16/07/2025].

Notice summarizing donations made by Corb and his son Raoul in favor of Saint-Pierre de Préaux:Corb gave in alms, with the agreement of his son
Raoul and Guillaume de Brucourt, from whom he held this land, seven
acres that he owned at Taille, in order to become a monk and share in
the benefits of the place. On the death of his father, Raoul confirmed,
in the presence of Guillaume de Brucourt, the gift made by Corb ; Abbot Geoffroy receives him, his wife and his sons into the abbey society.

Inter hec, imperante eodem principe Willelmo, quidam homo, nomine Corb,
dedit Sancto Petro Rotoville perpetuo et monachis de Pratellis VII agros
terre quos habebat in Taillia jure elemosine, ut esset frater et
particeps beneficiorum monachorum. Fecit autem hoc, concedente Willelmo Bruicurta, de quo tenebat illam terram, et filio suo Radulfo. Testes
ejus : Guntardus, vinitor ; Osmundus de Ham ; Gislebertus Capetus.
Deinde Corb mortuo, Radulfus, filius ejus, confirmans donationem sui
patris, venit Rotovillam et posuit super altare sancti Petri donationem predicte terre, astantibus jamdicto Willelmo et concedente domino suo et Goisfredo abbate. Recepitque eum idem abbas G(oisfredus) in societatem
loci et uxorem et filios ejus. Testes ejus : Gislebertus Bruicurtis ; Isembardus ; Bertinus ; Rogerius Canutus. Testes abbatis : Ligerius ;
Herluinus de Glatinio ; Robertus, prepositus ; Willelmus, filius Normanni. Signum (crux) Willelmi Bruicurtis. Signum (crux) Corb.

This charter indicates that Corb had at least two sons:

I have identified only two so far, Raul d'Asnieres and William de Semilly.

re: Corbo de Similleyo

Le jour de la dédicace, le 8 décembre 1056, le duc a donné en outre la moitié de la pêche dans la Sienne ; le même jour, il a concédé une charruée de terre à Guernesey, et ajouté aux prébendes de la ville de Coutances, une charruée à Saint-Sauveur l’Endelin et un aître de huit perches autour de l’église ; la terre de Brévands, que Corbo de Semilly avait trouvée dans la dot de sa femme ; la terre de l’Oiselière à Lingreville ; Loucelles, Putot et Sainte-Croix[-Grand-Tonne] que
possédait Herbert d’Aigneaux en Bessin ; la terre de Crapault que l’évêque Geoffroy [de Montbray] acquit pour la cathédrale et celle d’Unceyo qu’il lui attribua de la même manière.

On the day of the dedication, December 8, 1056, the Duke also gave half
of the fishing in Sienne; on the same day, he granted a plough of land
in Guernsey, and added to the prebends of the town of Coutances, a
plough in Saint-Sauveur l'Endelin and an eight-perch aître around the
church; the land of Brévands, which Corbo of Similleyo had found in his
wife's dowry; the land of l'Oiselière in Lingreville; Loucelles, Putot
and Sainte-Croix[-Grand-Tonne] which Herbert d'Aigneaux in Bessin
possessed; the land of Crapault which Bishop Geoffroy [de Montbray]
acquired for the cathedral and that of Unceyo which he attributed to him
in the same way.
