I show Beatrice de Beauchamp as great-grandmother of Alan of

possible de Vere relationship between Alan of Galloway and the Lacy
constable(s).
Yes, you're quite right. In my excitement I carelessly omitted a generation
of Morvilles. So Beatrice was Alan's great grandmother, not his grandmother.
And looking at the chronology, the relationship I found on the Internet -
claiming Beatrice as a daughter of Payn de Beauchamp by Rohese de Vere - is
clearly quite impossible chronologically. Oh well - at least I was right to
be cautious about that!
One problem with this consanguinity clue is that - according to Nat Taylor's
online reference (http://www.rootsweb.com/~medieval/consang.htm) - up until
1215 marriage was theoretically prohibited up to the 7th degree (not the 4th
as was the case later on). I don't know how many of Alan's marriages took
place before 1215, but evidently the one we're discussing did. So the
relationship could be a very distant one indeed.
