- Reginald de Dunstanville, 1st Earl of Cornwall
Reginald de Dunstanville (Reginald FitzRoy), 1st Earl of Cornwall (c. 1110, Dunstanville, Kent, England – 1 July 1175, Chertsey, Surrey, England), Sheriff of Devon, Earl of Cornwall, was an illegitimate son of Henry I of England and Lady Sybilla Corbet.
Reginald had been invested with the Earldom of Cornwall by King Stephen of England, but having afterwards taken up the cause of the Empress Matilda, his sister, he forfeited his lands and honours. Around 1173 he granted a charter to his "free bugesses of Triueru", and he addressed his meetings at Truro to "All men both Cornish and English" suggesting a continuing differentiation.
