   1564 Visitation of Devon, ed. Colby (1881), pp. 170-1, at p. 171; Visitations of Cornwall, ed. Vivian (1887), p. 372. Note that he is not there called a knight, and is not mentioned in Shaw’s The Knights of England. A possible Carolingian descent for her was hinted at some time ago by Gary Boyd Roberts in “The Mowbray Connection,” pt. 2, The Connecticut Nutmegger 10(2) (September 1977): 187-198, at p. 194, and written out in detail in Pedigrees of some of the Emperor Charlemagne’s Descendants 2:191, 71-3. Chronological difficulties with the line were pointed out in AR7, line 217, which tried to improve the chronology with the insertion of two generations, but the line even in this revised form was rejected by Farmerie in TAG 76:46-49.
