Joan is the only daughter mentioned by BLG1886 & Commoners, albeit she is named Dorothy by Commoners. She is not shown in this generation by Visitation (Oxfordshire) but that does show a Dorothy, m. John Fitzherbrt of Etwall) in the next generation. Note that Visitation (Oxfordshire) does show the following 6 daughters in this generation: Beatrix (m. Ralph Poole of Wakebridge), Anna (m. James Rolleston of Lee), Cecilia (m. Thomas Selmon), Margaret (m. Edmund Pilkington of Stanton), Elizabeth (m. Ralph Frances of Ferneewarke) & Isabella (m. John Rossell of Ratflyce-super-Trent). HOWEVER, that appears to be confusion with the daughters of Sir John Babington of Dethick & Kingston and Isabel Bradburne - see here.
