Research Notes:
coheir of her brother Sir John CHANDOS K.G. [Ref: HoP 1386-1421 v2p38, Rosie Bevan SGM 8/27/2001-010236]

inheried from her brother the manors of Headington and Bucknall, together with other land in Oxfordshire farmed from the Crown, and the barony of St Sauveur on the French island of Constantin [Ref: HoP 1386-1421 v2p39]

being deceased on the death of her brother, her daughter Isabella and Isabella's husband, Sir John Annesley, inherited the castle of Saint Sauveur, in the Coutantin, France [Ref: Ronny Bodine SGM 8/20/2001-081310]

Cox claims that the name of Margaret's husband, Robert de Ireland was found in the Lichfield Episcopal Registers. HoP assumes that Dammory was Margaret's husband's name because Sir Richard Dammory was granted the manor of Headington for life by Sir John Chandos, with remainder to his own right heirs, who are stated to be Chandos's sisters as mentioned. (Source IPM 49 Edw IV Sir Richard Dammory)
However, after the death of Isabel Annesley, it is said (by Dugdale) that her share of the Chandos inheritance (a share of the manor of Headington, the whole of the manor of Bucknell and a claim to a share in the barony of St Sauveur-le-Vicomte in Normandy which Edward III had formerly granted Sir John de Chandos [Calendar of Fine Rolls, 1369-77, p.349] ) [ HoP, v.2, p 39]
reverted to the Poles, but there is no evidence of this happening. The Annesleys continued their claim on the Headington property which consisted of "M de Hedington cum pertin' et hund' de Bolyndon et Northgate cum pertin' in co. Oxon." (H&G v.3 p. 282) after it had reverted to the Crown, for in 1399 the King (Richard II) granted to "Wm Willicotes the manor of Headington and the said hundreds in fee farm for 20 l yearly rent, which premises were formerly [held by] Sir John Chandos, and now forfeited to the king for defect of payment of the reserved rent" and in 1415 3 Hen V "Thomas Wilcotes, son and heir of William Wilcotes, who holds the manor of Hedingdon, &c accounts to the king in Michaelmas term for the reliefs of Eliz Chaundos, Roger Colyng and Alianore his wife, John Annesley and Eliz his wife, for the manor and hundreds aforesaid, due upon the kings pardon to them" [H & G, v.3 p.282]. Reading between the lines it appears that the Chandos descendants had lost favour under Richard II and as supporters of Henry Bolingbroke regained it again. Unfortunately the St Sauveur property had been lost when the French retook it. All in all, the tracking of Isabel's inheritance has been obscured by other events.
However the descent of Radbourne Manor very definitely stops with the Poles. Also Thomas Annesley does appear as son of John Annesley, according to Thoroton's pedigree of the Chaworth family in Thoroton's Nottinghamshire v.1 p.198. A pedigree from the Chaworth Musters papers in Nottingham University by the College of Arms also shows the same descent.
The Annesley family assumed the quarterings of Chandos - Or a pile gules, and continued to assert their descent from the Chandos family. [Ref: Rosie Bevan SGM 8/20/2001-203956]
