The DNB, under Hawkwood, says "Neither the date nor the fact of Hawkwood's
first marriage has been established. Before his marriage with Bernabo
Visconti's natural daughter, Donnina, Hawkwood had, besides two sons, a
daughter Antiocha or Mary, who resided in 1379 at Milan with her husband, Sir
William de Coggeshall, afterwards of Codham Hall, Essex . . . . Corio . . .
mentions another daughter, Fiorentina, married to a Milanese noble, Lancellotto
del Mayno, and a third daughter, Beatrice appears in Berry's "County
Genealogies, Sussex," p. 62,, as the wife of John Shelley, M.P. for Rye between
1415 and 1423, an ancestor of the poet Shelley. By Donnina Hawkwood had one
son, John, and three daughters, viz., Janet, Catherine, and Anne."

The buriel information was stated in "The History and Antiquities of the
County of Essex by Rev. Philip Morant, Vol II," originally published in
1763-1768 in London.
I am willing to learn anything about this colorful man of his times.

It was me (Adrian) who stated Sir John Hawkwood was buried in The Duomo,
Francisco Antonio Doria was correcting my information.
Yes, Duomo cathedral is dedicated to the Madonna of Florence, Santa Maria
del Fiore (almost Florida!)
Towards the NW corner of the cathedral is an Equestrian memorial to Sir
John Hawkwood (Giovanni Acuto), a fresco giving the illusion of a
sculpture, by Andrea del Castagno (1456)

He also got wiped out from time to time, including the White Company. Hazardous
business he was in. He worked principally for Florence, which thought so highly
of him he was given a state funeral and there is a life-size equestrian painting
of him in the Cathedral. At Richard II's request his body was returned to
England for burial.

Conan-Doyle's The White Company is, of course, a novel (and I thought it a
page-turner when I read it about forty years ago). Costain, while non-fiction,
made no pretense to scholarship. Better sources on Hawkwood are:
F. Gaupp, "The Condottiere John Hawkwood," in History, Vol. 23 (1939) andN.
Ritchie, "Sir John Hawkwood 1320-1394: The first Anglo-Florentine," in History
Today, Vol. 10 (1977).
If anyone knows of others, I would be delighted to hear of them.

Antiocha (also called Mary) is, according to the DNB, a daughter by an unknown
previous wife, not Domnina Visconti.

But she *is* the ancestor of Richmond Terrell (Tyrell), who emigrated to
Virginia, and of the Coggeshalls who emigrated to New England (Rhode Island, if
memory serves).

On p. 207 in _The Royal Descents of 500 Immigrants_ , Gary Boyd Roberts
illustrates the descent from Richard Coote, 1st Earl of Bellomont (1636),
colonial governor of New York to Olivia (Mary) de Havilland, Academy Award
winning actress (and sister of Joan de Havilland Fontaine).
If Burke's Peerage (including Extinct) is to be believed, I also think that this
descent would tie back into this discussion. At generation 13 Roberts shows the
marriage of Elizabeth Blount (this is a typo as it should be Elizabeth St. John
married to Sir Richard St. George. This is the same Richard St. George who was
Clarenceux King-of-Arms whose name is familiar in various Visitations (his son
and grandsons were also various King-of Arms, ie. Garter, Blue Mantle, Norroy,
Richmond Herald, etc.)
I will present an incomplete AT for Sir Richard which I believe shows a descent
from Sir John Hawkwood (anyone please advise where faulty so I may correct if
wrong):
01 - Sir Richard St. George (Clarenceux King-of-Arms)
02 - Francis St. George (b. 1518, of Hatley St. George, Camb)
03 - Rose Hutton (?of Drayton, Camb)
04 - Thomas St. George (1473-1540)
05 - Audrey/Ethelreda Heigham (of Giffards, Suffolk)
08 - Richard St. George (1446-1496)
09 - Ann Burgoyne (of Impington, Camb.)
10 - Clement Heigham (d. 20 Mar 1519/20)
11 - Joan Cotton (of Landwade, Camb.)
16 - William St. George (d.1472)
17 - Katherine Manningham (?)
32 - John St. George (d. bef. 1425)
33 - Matilda Coggeshall (of Codham Hall, Essex) co-heir with sister Alice
66 - William de Coggeshall
67 - Mary (Antiocha) Hawkwood
134 - Sir John Hawkwood
Any help in correcting this is appreciated.

One might be through a line involving adoption?
Another, though not even really "descent," might be by descent from a
wife's other husband.
Still another, strictly collateral, might be if William was the
ancestor's brother. No telling how far some might reach to say
they're related to a famous historical figure. If you generalize to
blood-lines, a good argument can be made that the brother-sister
relation is closer than the parent-child one.

It's not confined to Late Victorians. See Wurts, Magna Charta (1945),
wherein regular supplements were published showing (presumably
would-be noble) subscribers who had traced, through the genealogies of
the sureties, their supposed ancestries back to this or that old king,
all by connecting-the-dots.
Really, by the time one traces back through a dozen generations of
humdrum ancestors and their dull siblings, it's kinda fun to stumble
over a William the Conqueror, or a Ptolemy or two; and the temptation
certainly exists to go looking for them. Until she died I used to
get a kick out of calling my sister de vez a vez, to tell her that she
was a 32d great-grand-daughter (or whatever) of Lady Godiva, and
where's the horse she came in on? or that she was a cousin of Aaron
Burr, and so on.
As far as Visconti-Sforza I have an improved (not 100% complete) GEDCOM file
with some biographical notes and pictures, if of any interest. Would be glad
to share for additions and amendments.

John Hawkwood was leader of the "White Company." That was one of the
bands of brigands who plundered France in lulls in the hundred years'
war. Hawkwood went to Italy with his army and hired out to Barnabo
Visconti, who had ambitions to rule all of Lombardy. He switched
sides from time to time. Conan Doyle's book _The White Company_ might
be of interest to you. And see Costain, Thomas, _The Three Edwards_
pp. 414-418 (paperback edition). Costain, by the way names his wife:
Domnina. I believe his daughter's name is mistyped in this thread,
should be Antiocha not Anticha. Antiocha was an ancestor of Dorothy
Bell, wife of Henry Hobart; they were *NOT* (as some sources say) the
parents of the Edmund Hobart who emigrated from Hingham, Norfolk to
Bare Cove, Mass.

aspirando alla signoria del Logudoro, in Sardegna, invitò il suocero e
lo fece uccidere durante il pranzo. L'assassinio è del 1275, perciò

Yes. Only Michele Zanche is Miguel Sanchez. He was a Catalan, I think.
