There's no question Cecily belongs in the bio if the following extract is true regarding her son's uncle

"Cecily De Ufford married before 1348 John 3d Lord Willoughby d'Eresby, who died 29th March 1372, having survived his wife. Their son Robert 4th Lord Willoughby was born in 1349, and was one of the coheirs of his uncle William Earl of Suffolk in 1381. "
