Thomas FitzStephen

Thomas FitzStephen

Thomas FitzStephen (muerto en 1120), era el hijo ilegítimo de Stephen, un Capitán marino al mando de Guillermo el Conquistador durante la invasión de Inglaterra en 1066. FitzStephen era propietario y capitán del Barco Blanco que se hundió en el Canal de la Mancha, en la zona de la costa de Normandía próxima a Barfleur, el 25 de Noviembre de 1120. El Cronista Orderic Vitalis, aseveraba que FitzStephen prefirió ahogarse en el mar antes que afrontar la ira del Rey Enrique I, debido a que el hijo del Rey, Guillermo Adelin falleció en el hundimiento. Solo un carnicero sobrevivió al hundimiento del barco.
