Family Search records one Robert who similarly died 1274 but was born 1212
and a Robert who was almost-similarly born 1251 and who died before 18 Jul 1316 and was married to Beatrice. He also had a sister Beatrice born 1259.
Note that Robert II (1175-1258) was married to a Beatrice. When there are five Robert's in a sequence, it gets confusing! However, the evidence that this Robert was 8 years old when his father died means I have stayed with Robin Young's info and added the Beatrice's to both Robert II and Robert III., ,
