Research Notes:
daughter and heir of Isabel Stackpole [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 7/30/1998]

heiress, by mother, to Stacpole [Ref: Shaw Staffordshire p126]

1380: marriage agreement, between Julianne, Madame de Vernon, and Rees ap Gruffyth, agree to the marriage of her son Richard to his daughter Joan [Ref: Todd Farmerie SGM 5/4/1997-174940]

It is not clear which parentage [of the two given in Weis AR7] is preferred for Joan, wife of Richard de Vernon, as the text gives one, while the note the opposite conclusion. The document quoted by Shaw appears definitive, and is supported by a document abstracted in the Historical Manuscript Commission, Rutland iv: 28. This reports a marriage indenture (20 May, 3 Ric I) between Rees ap Griffyth and Juliane de Vernon, agreeing that Richard son of Juliane should marry Johanne, daughter of Rees. This cannot be brought into agreement with the 1411 i.p.m. of Lawrence Berkrolls, which appeared in Topographer and Genealogist, i:533-5. This indicated that Lawrence held Coityf and other properties (which once belonged to Richard Turburville), as coheir along with Isabella de Stackpole, John de la Bere, and William Gamage. Then follows "Et dicunt quod Johanna que fuit uxor Ric'i Vernon chivaler est propinquior heres predicte Isabelle vid'i't. filia predicti Ric'i Stakepole filii predicte Margarete et est etatis xl annorum et amplius." Thus, unless the author and I have both misinterpreted the Latin, it would appear that this original source names Joan as daughter of Richard Stackpole. This must be in error, or else she and Isabelle would have been coheiresses of their Turberville share of Coityf, rather than Isabelle alone representing this branch. I would suggest that the author (or a transcriber) has dropped a generation from Joan's pedigree, and that it should have read ". . . vid'l't. filia predicte Isabelle fillia predicti Ric'i Stakepole . . . ." (Shaw and Nichols both beleived Joan daughter of Isabelle. Bartrum supplies yet another solution, making Isabelle wife of Rhys ap Griffith, Sr. and grandmother of Joan. This is incorrect, however, as proven by a plea showing Ros Griffith (Jr.) was son of Joan de Somerville, (wife of Rhys Sr), (Pedigrees from the Plea Rolls). Were this true, Joan Griffith would not have been heiress of Isabelle, her step-grandmother, to the exclusion of her (half-)brother Thomas Griffith. [Ref: Todd Farmerie SGM 8/1/1995]

Inq p.m. for Laurence Berkrolls, knt, describes his acquisition as son of a sister and coheir of Richard Turburville. One of the other representatives of this claim was Isabelle, daughter of Richard Stackpole, son of Margaret, another sister of Turburville. Later, in describing Laurence's heirs, it names one as Joan, wife of Richard Vernon Knt heiress of Isabelle, daughter of said Richard Stackpole. This has been read to claim Joan was daughter of Richard, but if so, Isabelle would not have been sole heiress of her share when Laurence inherited the claim. Instead, it should be read as Joan is heiress of Isabelle, which Isabelle was daughter of Richard Stackpole. Thus Joan was sole heiress of Isabelle Stackpole. [Ref: Todd Farmerie SGM 5/4/1997-174940]

Joan de Vernon is in one place called daughter of Richard de Stackpole, but this is clearly an error, as it was long after the fact, and found by a jury not closely associated with her [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 7/31/1998]

proof that Joanna (Joan) was daughter of Rhys ap Griffith is given in Shaw's _Hist. & Antiquities of Staffordshire_ I 122, 126, and app. p. 38, which quotes an indenture made by William Marshal & wife Margaret, wid. of Sir Rhys ap Griffith, Knt., together with Margaret's son, Thomas, eldest son & heir of Sir Rhys, for properties of Sir Rhys, showing remainder for the estates, after Thomas, son of Rhys, to his sister Joan, wid. of Sir Richard Vernon. Joan is also called "heir of Stackpole", in _Cartae et Alia Munimenta quaea ad Dominium de Glamorgancia pertnen_, 4 (Cardiff, 1910), pp. 1466-69, calling her "dau. of Richard de Stackpole & heiress of Isabel, dau. of Richard de Stackpole & gr.dau. of Margaret Turberville, sis. of Richard Turberville, lord of Coity." From the dates known of these people and ages of death, it is evident that Joan had to be the granddau., not dau., of Sir Richard de Stackpole. [Ref: Weis AR7 #56A]
