Richard of Normandy, Duke of Bernay, Duke of Bernay, was born circa 1054 in Normandy to William I of England (1027-1087) and Matilda of Flanders (c1031-1083) and died circa 1081 New Forest, Hampshire of unspecified causes.

Heir to the throne of England, Richard of Normandy was the second son of William the Conqueror, King of England, and Matilda of Flanders.

Between 1069 and 1075, Richard died in a hunting accident in the New Forest.[1][2] He was buried at Winchester Cathedral. In a twist of fate, his younger brother, King William Rufus, and a nephew, also named Richard, were also killed in the New Forest twenty-five years later.
