Biography

Agnes was the daughter of John Canynges and Joan Wotton.

She was named in the 1405 will of her father John.[1]

Her widowed mother married before 1408 Thomas Young. In January 1408, Young, who was then sheriff, appeared before the mayor to acknowledge that he had undertaken the guardianship of Joan’s children by her first husband: Thomas Canynges then aged ten, William then aged five, and their sisters.[2]
