There also seems to be a Humphrey de Bohun, 3rd Earl of Hereford, who was this Humphrey's son by a different marriage, according to his page. Adam Bishop 16:32, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Humphrey (VI), 3rd Earl of Hereford was actually the grandson of Humphrey (IV), 2nd Earl of Hereford. Between the second and third Earls was Humphrey (V) who never acceded to the earldom because his father (IV) outlived him.

There were at least 9 Humphrey de Bohuns in the lineage and with some widely varying birth and death dates, it can be a challenge to keep track. I have tried to indicate each individual in the dynasty with a Roman Numeral, but I don't know how to alter the title of an article. To be consistent with others in the series, this should be "Humphrey (IV) de Bohun, 2nd Earl of Hereford".Catenary (talk) 18:46, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The same woman (Maud Lusignan) is listed as the man's mother and as his wife ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.173.187.203 (talk) 03:14, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Consistency with other articles and to help keep track of all the Humphrey de Bohuns Catenary (talk) 18:55, 30 April 2011 (UTC) Catenary (talk) 18:55, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose without further info justifying the move. "Consistency" with what articles? I can't find any other articles using parenthetical roman numerals. The current title seems quite clearly disambiguated from the other Humphrey de Bohuns. Also cf. the entries in Category:Earls of Warwick (1088) et al. —  AjaxSmack  17:57, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose May be unnecessairily complicating matters, and it is actually the present title which is consistent with the others. PatGallacher (talk) 10:53, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
