Here we have the wife of John II Le Strange as a daughter of Ralph de Albini Brito. But no source is given. Medlands gives no parentage for the Amice who married John, nor does it list an Amicia under Ralph de Albini. Does anyone have any source material for making this connection??

The VCH Leicestershire, vol 5, in the article about the Manor of Shangton, names the wife of John Lestrange II as Amice la Fusche). It also states that she granted her land in Shangton to a son William, who must have been born shortly before his father died.[2] (The records it cites are in the Leicester City Muniments Room, reference 31 D. 56/37.)

Thanks Rachal Bhnay Davis.

According to the Wiki acct: "Neither Amice/Amicia's family name, nor a son William are named in either Eyton's Shropshire, vol 10, p 270 or LeStrange Records, p. 98 but as the VCH Leicestershire is a later publication (1964) then it may represent more recent research. Unfortunately the sources it cites don't appear to be available online anywhere."

Cawley and Stirnet would surely have considered that information if it was valid.

Anne Brannen and Erica Howton , do either of you have any info in this area?
