Biography

Alice Plumpton of Plumpton, Spofforth, Yorkshire, England was born about 1335.^[1] She was the daughter of Sir William de Plumpton and Christiana Mowbray.^{[2][3][4][5][6]}

Marriage & Children

A contract for the marriage of Alice Plumpton and Sir Richard de Sherburne was signed in 1351.^[2] They had one son and two daughters^[4][7]:

• Richard^[2],
• Joan^[2][6],
• Margaret, wife of Richard de Bailey^[2][6].

Alice Plumpton married, secondly, Sir John Boteler, Baron Warrington, Sheriff of Lancashire, Constable of Liverpool Castle, son of Sir William le Boteler and Elizabeth de Havering, about 1364^[3][4][7]. They had two sons and three daughters^[3][4][7]:

• Sir William^[2],
• John^[2],
• Margaret^[2],
• Alice, wife of John Gerard, Esq^[2]
• Elizabeth, wife of Richard Boteler^[2].

Alice Plumpton died after 6 November 1408. She obtained a license for a private oratory on that date.^[2][4]

Research Notes

Daughters

The History of Parliament Online entry for her second husband, John le Boteler, attributes two sons and only two daughters to their marriage.^[8] It does not name the daughters.

Magna Carta Surety Ancestry

Through her father, she descends from the Magna Carta Surety Robert de Ros.^[2] Some believe that her mother descends from five Sureties: Richard and Gilbert de Clare, John de Lacy, Saher de Quincy, and William de Mowbray. The evidence is purely circumstantial, however, and the line is not supported by Douglas Richardson.^[9] Douglas Richardson states that there is insufficient evidence to determine, with any confidence, which branch of the Mowbray family Christiana was a member.^[3]
