Research Notes:
shortly after her husband's death, she was forcibly adbucted from her manor of Drakelowe, which had been assigned to her by her eldest son, and carried off to Swinnerton by Sir John de Swinnerton and others. There she was detained for a long time, and it is certainly noticeable that we hear nothing of her for some years after this event. Justice was slow, and not till 1321-4 was Sir John Swinnerton brought to trial, when he produced a pardon from the King dated 25 May 1310. However, before 1320, Johanna must have escaped, for she was then the wife of Sir Walter de Montgomery (a connexion of the Swinnertons) [Ref: Rosie Bevan SGM 11/24/2002-184936]

implicated in the murder of her stepson, William de Montgomery [Ref: Rosie Bevan SGM 11/24/2002-184936]
