Agnes seems to have been attached to the wrong parents. Far more likely, if her father is indeed a Robert, that it is Harcourt-11 who married Margaret Byron.

See, for example, http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/HARCOURT.htm#Agnes%20HARCOURT1

Yes. The error seems to have originated with Arthur Meredyth Burke's "Prominent Families of the United States of America," https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Prominent_Families_of_the_United_Sta/uxEwAAAAYAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=%20%22Anthony%20Cope%22 The Robert currently identified as her father seems to have been born in 1466 (so he was nineteen, not thirteen, at Bosworth) and could not possibly be Agnes's father. Please see Robert Hiller, "John Harcourt," The Ricardian online, http://www.thericardian.online/downloads/Ricardian/4-54/03.pdf. Someone with a pre-1500 certification should change Agnes's parentage. I would if I could.

Her birth in 1472 conflicts with the births of her parents in the 1470's.
