Biography

Joan Warren was the daughter of Sir Laurence Warren and his wife Margaret (or Margery) Bulkeley.^[1][2] Since her husband, Nicholas, was born in 1418 and was only 12 when their marriage was arranged,^[3] it is likely that Joan was born sometime in 1416-1422. Since her father's primary residence was in Poynton, Cheshire, it is reasonably like that Joan was born there.

Joan's marriage to marry Nicholas Longford was arranged in 1430.^[2][1]

Joan and Nicholas had the following children:

• Nicholas,^[2] probably sometime in 1435-1442, m. probably sometime in 1447-1463 Margaret Melton,^[2] d.s.p. 1481^[2]
• Margery,^[2] b. probably sometime in 1435-1440, m. 1st about November 1453 Thomas Foljambe,^[2] m. 2d by July 1468 Thomas Odell^[2]
• Ralph,^[2] b. probably sometime in 1437-1445, m. probably sometime in 1449-1466 Isabel Ferrers,^[2] d. 1513^[2]
• Margaret, b. probably sometime in 1435-1462, m. probably sometime in 1450-1480 Humphrey Bradburne, d. before 1519
• (possibly) Joan/Jane (see Bevan p 348, fn 18),^[2] m. John Dukinfield of Dukinfield, Cheshire^[2]

No reliable evidence establishing Joan's date or place of death has been found. Since her husband's primary residence was in Derbyshire, it is probable that she died there.
