RPA correction: Alice, wife of Maurice de Caunton

Legg inn av Gjest » 25 mai 2007 22:02:21

In his work, Plantagenet Ancestry, Douglas Richardson states that
Alice, daughter of William and Ida de Odingseles, married "Maurice or
Thomas Caunton".

As the following contemporaneous Plea Roll entries from the helpful
British History online site show, Alice's husband was named Maurice,
not Thomas, de Caunton:

(1)

Banco Roll, Michaelmas, 27 E. I.

Warwickshire: Ela formerly wife of William de Oddingeseles sued Ralph
de Whyteleye of Solihul for a third of a messuage and twenty-five
acres of land in Solyhull as her dower; and Ralph called to warranty
John de Clynton and Ida his wife, Peter de Bermyngham and Alice his
wife, Morice de Kaunton and Ela his wife, and John de Gray and
Margaret his wife, because the said women were the daughters and heirs
of William de Oddingseles; and John de Clynton and Ida appeared and
stated that the said Peter had no wife named Alice, nor had Morice a
wife named Ela, but that Peter had Ela to wife and Morice had Alice.
Ralph denied this, and appealed to a jury, which is to be summoned for
the Quindene of Hillary

[Begin mockery]
Apparently the author of that work, knowing that this Plea Roll existed, deliberately suppressed that knowledge. I cannot imagine why but it's clearly a major gaff. Thank you for bringing this excellent piece to our attention. Your efforts will surely earn you a place in Genealogy Heaven and the accolades of all creatures everywhere.
