Agnes Doddiscombe

Notes

https://groups.google.com/g/soc.genealogy.medieval/c/lk1oZmzTEBw/m/...

Agnes was married two (perhaps three) times. By her husband Adam Branscombe she had a daughter Ibote, who had a son Robert who had daughters Elizabeth and Margaret. Margaret was age 26 in 1427. In other words, Agnes (Doddiscombe, Branscombe) Champernoun was a great-grandmother by 1401. It appears Elizabeth and Margaret were actually the heirs of Otes Chambernoun of his mother’s property while the Champernoun property went to the heirs of his father’s sisters. If Agnes was born by and possibly well before 1340, presumably so was her husband Richard Champernoun. The generational differences between Otes Champernoun and his heirs no longer seem so significant.
