Biography

Joan was the daughter of Sir Hugh Bigod and Joan de Stuteville.^[1][2] Her birth date is not known: it has been guesstimated as about 1255 on the basis that her son William, who his father's heir, was said to be 40 and more at his father's death in 1323. Her first name is given by a confirmation by her husband of a grant to Bullington Priory, Lincolnshire "for his salvation and that of Joan his wife".^[3]

Joan married Philip de Kyme, son of William de Kyme and Lucy de Roos.^[1][2][3] Philip's wardship and marriage had been granted to her father.^[4][5] They had three children:

• William, 2nd Lord Kyme^[1][2][3][4]
• Lucy, who married Robert de Umfreville^[1][2]
• Agnes, who married someone with the last name Bulmer^[1][2]

Joan's death date is not known.
