Biography
Joan de Quincy was daughter of Robert de Quincy and Ellen, daughter of Llewelyn ap Iorwerth.[1][2] She was born in about 1245: she was 19 at the time of her marriage[1] and when writs for the IPMs of her uncle Roger de Quincy were issued in 1264.[3]
Before 7 October 1264 she married, as his second wife, Humphrey de Bohun. They had no children.[1][4]
After her husband's death in 1265 she made alterations at Ware Priory to make her accommodation there more comfortable.[1]
On 9 November 1269 she exchanged her dower of the manor of Kimbolton for an annuity of £40 from the manor of Walton.[2]
In 1274 she and her sister Hawise were joint holders of the manor of Suckley in Worcestershire.[1]
She died on 25 November 1283. Her heir was her sister Hawise.[1][5]

IT IS ERRONEOUS TO RECORD THAT THERE WERE NO CHILDREN FROM THE MARRIAGE OF HUMPHREY VI BOHUN AND HIS SECOND WIFE. The second Patent Roll entry dated 12 November 1265 records:- DURING THE MINORITY OF THE DAUGHTERS OF THE SAID HUMPHREY AND HEIRS OF JOAN LATE THE WIFE OF THE SAID HUMPHREY. No further record can be found for these daughters, and as they were not heirs of their mother when she died in 1283, one can only conclude that they died as sometime between 1265 and 1283, without heirs. The three manors that had been granted to Humphrey VI and Joan and the heirs of their bodies, had all reverted back to the Bohuns.
[CPR HIII] 12 November 1265 Westminster. Grant to Humphrey de Bohun, earl of Hereford, and his heirs, of the manors of Sudham and Withurst and 100s of land in Haresfeud, county Gloucester, the manor of Kanelauton, county Huntingdon, and the manors of Waleden and Depeden, county Essex, which the earl, by fine made in the king's court, had granted to Humphrey de Bohun his first born son, to hold after his death, to him and his heirs by Joan daughter of Robert de Quency his wife, which belong to the king by reason of the trespass and forfeiture which the said Humphrey made against the king and his son Edward in adhering to Simon de Monte Forti, some earl of Leicester, and his partisans, the king's enemies.
[Calendar Patent Rolls HIII] 12 November 1265 Westminster. Whereas William de Valencia, the king's brother, during the late disturbance in the realm, in the parts of Pembroke, besieged the castle of Haverford late of Humphrey de Bohun the younger then the king's enemy, and captured it from him; the king has granted to the said William the said castle to hold to him and his heirs DURING THE MINORITY OF THE DAUGHTERS OF THE SAID HUMPHREY AND HEIRS OF JOAN LATE THE WIFE OF THE SAID HUMPHREY.
[Calendar Fine Rolls EI] 24 December 1283 Rhuddlan. Order to the escheator on this side Trent to take into the king's hand the lands late of Joan de Boun, deceased, tenant in chief.
[Calendar Inquisitions Post Mortem EI V2] No 534 Joan, late the wife of Humphrey de Bohun. Writ 15 December 12EI. She died on Thursday the feast of St Katherine, 12EI [25 November 1283]. Hawise her sister, late the wife of Baldwin Wake, aged 32, is her next heir. Huntingdon – The manor of Kynebauton including the advowson of the church, held in dower of the said Humphrey.
Robert de Quincy's wife was Elen the Elder (according to his profile). OK if I switch the mother from Helen the Younger?
