    In 1201 the Barons refused to attend their sovereign into France. King John demanded that their castles should be given up to him as security for their allegiance, beginning with William d'Albini and his Belvoir Castle. William instead gave him his son, William, as a hostage.

    He was distinguished as one of the rebel Barons in the time of King John, and was their general, though he had joined them as late as January 1214/15. He was a Surety. He it was who made so noble a defense as governor of' Rochester Castle in a siege that lasted three months. Later King John had ordered him to be executed, and in 1216, was captured at the Castle of Corfe. William had to pay 6,000 marks for his freedom.

    After King John's death, he submitted himself to King Henry III. He was forced to give his wife and son, Nicholas, as hostages for his allegiance.
