| m1. Amicia (or Joan) de Alfreton (sister/coheir of Thomas son of Robert de Alfreton of Alfreton) | |||||||||||||||
| CTG shows Amicia as Robert's only wife and mother of his children. VCH reports that Joan/Amicia probably dsp as the manors she had inherited did not pass into the Lathom family and suggests that Joan de Milliom was mother of his children. However, BHO (Magna Brittania, vol 5, Derbyshire, Parishes: Alfreton) suggests that a moiety (interest) in Alfreton did pass into this family but was purchased by Amicia's nephew, Thomas de Chaworth. Accordingly, we show Amicia as mother of ... | |||||||||||||||
