Hey Adam, do you have a list anywhere of baillis of the kingdom? This post , when it existed at least, was generally seen as the highest officer of the Kingdom, above the Constable. john k 04:47, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Hi. I think there is an error somewhere in the list. Balian of Ibelin is listed as being chamberlain 1183-85, but constable 1268-77 and Co-bailiff 1228-1240. My guess is, that the first is correct - his entry lists him as living 1134-1193, and the Battle of Jerusalem 1187. However, I am no historian, and cannot give a conclusive answer.
The current list denotes Raymond II of Tripoli as a Bailiff from 1173-1177, but this is not possible as he died in 1152. Is this possibly his son, Raymond III of Tripoli? Also, Guy of Lusignan is listed as being a Bailiff in 1177, but Kings of Jerusalem says he was regent in 1183-1184. Was the office of Bailiff only occupied when there was a regency? I'm not sure of the precendents here, so I don't want to make a mistake, but these seem like major errors.--Eric 22:06, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
You add : Frederick, Archbishop of Tyre (c. 1150) as chancellor but it seems that the Frederick named in the charter RRH262 is not the chancellor, but just a chaplain (his title is in abbreviated form). Hans Eberhard Mayer, in article "Studies in the History of Queen Melisende of Jerusalem", Dumbarton Oaks Papers, vol. 26 (1972), p.139, thinks that he is just a chaplain of the queen, as there was probably no chancellot at this moment for many reasons he argues for in previous pages of the same article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:41D0:FE75:FB00:290:F5FF:FE8B:4EBF (talk) 08:54, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
