Eleanor PLANTAGENET or DE BOHUN?
Jane P Justice
Different volumes of "Pedigrees of Some of the Emperor Charlemagne's
Descendants" differ on her parentage.
Sir Richard Fitzalan, b. abt 1313, d. 24 jan 1375/76, s/of Edmund
Fitzalan and Alice de Warenne
m.
Eleanor b. 11 jan 1371/72
The first volume lists her as daughter of William de Bohun, Earl of
Northampton.
The second volume lists her as daughter of Maud de Chaworth and Henry
Plantagenet. Which is correct?
Hopefully, Robin :)

She was apparently the mother by Henry Beaufort

this line leading to Abigail Adams and FDR.
