Biography

Elizabeth was the daughter of Robert de Scales and Katherine de Ufford.^[1][2][3][4] Her birth date is uncertain. Her parents married by 1335,^[5][6] so 1340 might be a reasonable estimate.

Elizabeth married Roger de Felbrigg.^[1][2][3][4] They had at least one child:

• Simon^[1][2][3][4]

Simon was born before 1366^[1][2] so Elizabeth and Roger may have married around 1360. There may have been two other children:

• John, a priest^[1][2]
• a daughter who married Constantine de Mortimer of Attleborough, Norfolk^[1][2]

Elizabeth's death date is not known.

Research Notes

Previously Shown Children

Two daughters have previously been shown on WikiTree, both with unsourced profiles:

• Alana Bigod
• Jean Bigod/LeBigod

There is no clear evidence for Elizabeth Scales and Roger de Felbrigg having daughters of these names, so they were detached. Alana may well be a confusion with Elizabeth's granddaughter Alana Felbrigg: the Felbrigg family had Bigod ancestry and Alana Bigod was originally given the same birth year as Alana Felbrigg.

Magna Carta Project

This profile was developed for the Magna Carta Project by Michael Cayley on 5 May 2021 and approved by Thiessen-117.

Elizabeth (Scales) de Felbrigge is listed in Magna Carta Ancestry in a Richardson-documented trail between Gateway Ancestor Margaret Tyndal and Magna Carta Surety Baron Robert de Vere (vol. IV, pages 239-242 TYNDALL). The Magna Carta Project also identified this profile in a trail to Surety Saher de Quincy. Both trails were badged by the Project on 11 May 2021. See the Magna Carta Trails on John Tyndall's profile for a list of profiles in these trails and the development status of each profile.

See Base Camp for more information about identified Magna Carta trails and their status. See the project's glossary for project-specific terms, such as a "badged trail".
