From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hugh d'Aubigny (died 7 May 1243) was the 5th Earl of Arundel and the last in the Aubigny male line to hold the Arundel Castle. He was the son of William d'Aubigny, 3rd Earl of Arundel.

He married Isabel de Warenne (c. 1228 - 1282), daughter of William de Warenne, 6th Earl of Surrey and Maud Marshal (1192-1248). They had no children.

In 1242 he was one of the seven Earls who accompanied the King Henry in his expedition to Aquitaine.

On his death his large estates were divided amongst his four sisters and their issue. His title of Earl of Arundel was inherited by his nephew John FitzAlan, 6th Earl of Arundel, son of his sister Isabel d'Aubigny.

Hugh was buried at Wymondham Abbey. His widow Isabel was buried at Convent Church in Marham.
