<< In reference to the post by Mr Cummings, I would like to state that
Alice
Batisford was the first wife of William Echyngham and he married 2n
Joan
Fitzalan Arundel before 1400. She the widow of Wm de Brienne(Brien) who
died 1395.
Thomas Echyngham son of William and Joan Fitzalan calls Elizabeth
Echyngham
Hoo Lewknor his sister in his will. >>

This is suggestive but not confirmatory, imho.
"Sister" for "Half-sister" I believe was a common alteration.
If this is the only indication that Joan and Elizabeth were daughters
of Joan
instead of Alice, it's not sufficient in my opinion to make that
conclusion.

Evidently this "sister" was used to mean half sister. We have a court case in which Joan Echyngham Rykill and Elizabeth Echyngham Hoo Lewknor are involved with their cousin Richard Fiennes over Batisford land in Buckholt. It is stated in the case that they are the daughters of alice, sister of elizabeth(Isabell) Batisford who married Wm fiennes. They say that Richard is the grandson of elizbeth Batisford. Strong evidence of the relationship and that they were indeed daughters of Alice Batisford Echyngham.
