Plantagenet-1229 and Lancaster-459 do not represent the same person because: Not close match.

Elizabeth [Of] Lancaster, divorced wife of John de Hastings, and widow of John Holand, 1st Duke of Exeter, Earl of Huntingdon, and daughter of John of Gaunt, by his wife, Blanche, daughter of Henry of Lancaster. They had one son, John, and one daughter, Constance (wife of John Arundel). By an unknown mistress (or mistresses), he also had two illegitimate sons, John, and Thomas.

Thank you!

Richardson lists three sons, including a Richard. Ann I think we should merge with Alice (Richardson lists two daughters, Constance & Alice).

Question: Should Elizabeth Of Lancaster's maiden name be changed to Plantagenet?

Thank you for your help! :-)

John Holland married 24 June 1386 Elizabeth Of Lancaster. They had three sons, Richard, John, Knt. [Duke of Exeter], and Edward, Knt. [Count of Mortain], and two daughters, Constance and Alice (wife of Richard Vere, K.G, 11th Earl of Oxford).

Thank you!

Plantagenet-1729 and Lancaster-459 appear to represent the same person because: these were set in a rejected match. Please look again, as the profiles seem to be intended for the same person despite the discrepancies (they both have same parents & were wife to John Holland who died 1400). Thanks!

Plantagenet-1729 and Lancaster-459 do not represent the same person because: Actually, they are the same person, but it's not clear which birth place to retain. Of greater importance, John of Gaunt,her father, was in the Plantagenet group. Why would the daughter have a "LNAB" of Lancaster rather than Plantagenet? There may well be a perfectly sensible reason for this, but i don't know it. If the reason to change LNAB from Plantegenet to Lancaster is described in the profile text itself, then the next person to help with the merge will be able to see it.
