Abstract by FMG - 09 Apr 2004
A correction to the well established concept that Margaret, wife of Sir Hamon Lestrange of Hunstanton (d.bef.Nov.1317) was of the Cheshire family of Vernon. Margaret Vernon (sister and heir of Sir Ralph de Vernon of Cheshire) was married to a different Sir Hamon Lestrange who did not die until between 1346 and 1355. The latter was the knight of Cheswardine and Betton, and a second cousin of Sir Hamon of Hunstanton. The latter's wife Margaret was probably of Norfolk origin.
