In the will of John Throckmorton made in London on April 12,1445, only 6 children are mentioned.  I doubt that Jane existed, although she is listed several places.  I do think Eleanor was a daughter, although not listed in the will.  Maybe she was well-to-do on her own and didn't need any inheritance from her father?

What are your thoughts on the matter?

Thank you for your help.  Then the daughters in order of their birth should be Elizabeth, Agnes, Margaret, Jane, Matilda or Maud, and Eleanor.

The Peerage only lists 4 children -3 with Eleanor de Spineto (married 1409) namely Sir Thomas (d 1471), Eleanor (no dates) and John (no dates) and another child but no named mother - Matilda b 1425.

No sign of Jane in that record.
