Isabel is said to be the daughter of Humpfrey Stafford kt., in the Braase pedigree from the visitation of Worcestershire in 1531 (College of Arms Ms. H.20/69) and daughter of Sir Humphrey Stafford of Grafton in the 1569 Visitation of Worcester. BHO. Parishes: Doverdale states ' [The manor of Doverdale, Worcestershire] seems, however, to have been settled upon JOHN BRACE, son of John Brace by his second wife, the settlement having probably been made about 1434, when SIR HUMPFREY STAFFORD OF GRAFTON, father in-law of the younger John, presented with other trustees to the church of Doverdale.' [My caps] https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/worcs/vol3/pp69-71 If this is correct Isabel's father, Sir Humphrey, was alive in 1434, i.e. he was Sir Humphrey, the son of the above. However, she is not included among his issue and the dates would only fit if her marriage settlement was made when she was relatively young. Could she have been a daughter of this Sir Humphrey and possibly it was her brother Humphrey who presented at Doverdale?
