Beatrice survived her husband, as by a deed in about 1471 her son Richard granted manors at Kilby, Leicestershire, and Littlehay, Colton, Staffordshire, which she had held in dower.[1]

There is still a problem with dates on this profile. Beatrice was the daughter of Anketil Mallory and Alice Driby, who can only have married after the death of Alice's first husband Ralph Basset (abt.1315-1378). So the original date of birth of c. 1380 must have been correct. Beatrice was the second wife of John Bagot, whose son and heir Richard Bagot was of age in 1409, so born before 1388. Richard named Beatrice (his father's widow) as his mother; but she would have been at most 8 when he was born. I can only think that he used "mother" for "stepmother", and that he was actually the son of John Bagot's first wife Beatrice Villiers.

I think before we make major changes to the dates and relationships within this family we should do some research to find the primary sources that will confirm those details.
This precis of a document in the National Archives of England, between William Snape, tailor, of London and Richard Bagot, in relation to lands in Derbyshire occurred in 1431. https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/bf8419e0-5a2b-4a7e-9a2f-66f7198d093f
And William Snape may only have gained Connesley in 1425 https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/84583b64-176b-46d8-8112-1015edb606df

There is a problem with the dates on this profile - she married at the age of 10?
History of Parliament's source is Nichols' "History and Antiquities of the County of Leicester" (vol 4, part 2, page 761), and I suspect Nichols has confused two different Sir John Bagots. All the other sources say this profile's husband married Beatrice de Villiers; his grandfather Sir John Bagot married the daughter of Sir Anketil Mallory (presumably a generation or two further back). If Nichols has made a mistake, and is the only source for this person, she may not have existed.

I'm inclined to think Beatrice might be a Mallory and not a Villiers, as I'm not sure how prominent the Villiers family were in this time period? However I'll wait to see if I can find any definite proof before making any further changes.
