Who are Previously, I believed that The old version of 1050811Joan's page presents the most essential evidence that I had based my incorrect conclusion on, briefly discusses (in a note at the top of the page) the confounding evidence, and (in the same note) has links to guide you to the profile pages that I'd written for |
1: UK National Archives reference ID CP 40/717 (Court of Common Pleas / Plea Rolls / Chief Justice's roll, 18 Hen VI, Easter term), on an apparently unnumbered page pertaining to a lawsuit involving William Sonde et al. vs. John Ruton et al. I obtained an image of this record from: Anglo-American Legal Tradition, O'Quinn Law Library, University of Houston; <http://aalt.law.uh.edu/AALT1/H6/CP40no717/bCP40no717dorses/IMG_1261.htm>, accessed 29 March 2022. You can see AALT's index entry for this record at <http://aalt.law.uh.edu/Indices/CP40Indices/CP40no717/CP40no717Pl.htm> by searching "1262." As you can see, the original record is in Latin, so refer to the abstract in: George Wrottesley, Pedigrees from the Plea Rolls: Collected from the Pleadings in the Various Courts of Law, A.D. 1200 to 1500, from the Original Rolls in the Public Record Office, page 371.
2: W. Bruce Bannerman, ed., The Visitations of Kent, Taken in the Years 1530-1 and 1574, Part 2 (Publications of the Harleian Society, volume 75, London, 1924), page 34.
3: UK National Archives reference ID CP 25/1/105/174 no. 1373. I obtained an image of this record from: Anglo-American Legal Tradition, O'Quinn Law Library, University of Houston; <http://aalt.law.uh.edu/AALT7/CP25(1)/CP25_1_105_160-175/IMG_0375.htm>, accessed 6 August 2022. As you can see, the original record is in Latin, but an English translation is available.
4: College of Arms, Philipott MS. 26, 27, folio 43b. You can see a partial transcription of the original Latin, or an English translation by Simon Neal. The most important phrases in the document are "Benedictae uxoris ejusdem Stephani Betenham," "Joh'ae de Apulderfeld matris eiusdem Benedicta," and "super divisione maneriorum de Throughly, Bocton Malherbe et Wormesail inter p'fatam Joh'am matrem dictae Benedictae ac Elizabetham et Benedictam sorores ejusdem."
