Wouldn't Aubrey be the 10th Earl of Oxford, having succeeded his brothers in that title about 1348?

Yes, but the numbering of titles is frequently omitted. It can, for some earldoms etc, be a messy business, with different people doing the numbering in different ways.

Richardson says Margaret and John Barrett had no children: MCA vol II p.13, Culpepper 10

thought I had a lead for a Gateway... on Norris-512 is a comment that " daughter Margaret married Barrett-524". Barrett-524 is badged. BUT. Descendants are not by Margaret.

c1340 birth appears to be from DNB (see copy here). Wikipedia article has b1338 (citing the DNB article that has "1340?"). Richardson RA V:261 says he was

"born about 1338-1340".

There's a problem in the Magna Carta Project section: Richard Palgrave is not a lineal descendant, so he cannot be the Gateway anchor for this trail.

For de_Vere & Quincy, Gateways include Batte-33 (trail's badged) & Codd-38 (trail's ready for review).

For de Lacy, see Lacy-213#Magna Carta Project.

For the de Clares, the great-grandfather of Aubrey de Vere (grandfather of Aubrey's mother, Badlesmere-22) is their descendant.

De Vere-297 and De Vere-233 appear to represent the same person because: Seem to be the same person, except that the earlier birth date cannot be correct.

Hi Michael! Still 40 years off between this profile & De_Vere-233, but with no other information... OK to change the birth year to 1340 & re-propose the merge?
posted by Liz (Noland) Shifflett
De Vere-297 and De Vere-233 are not ready to be merged because: Not sufficient data given to make reliable comparison. Large difference in birth dates, indicating they may have been of different generations.
posted by Tim Perry
De Vere-297 and De Vere-233 appear to represent the same person because: Obviously intended to be same even though one has wrong dates if you compare to family members
posted by Andrew Lancaster
De Vere-302 and De Vere-233 appear to represent the same person because: Same approx birth, same spouse, same death
