Greetings,
I’m researching the Doughty family of Hanworth, Norfolk and the Chambre family of Thurgarton, Norfolk. According to ‘A Genealogical and Heraldic Dictionary of the Landed Gentry of Great Britain & Ireland’, Vol. 2 – M to Z, p. 855,
“The family of Doughty derives from THOMAS DOUGHTY, of Hanworth, co. Norfolk, living temp. HENRY IV., son of SIMON DOUGHTY, of Hanworth, living temp. EDWARD III. This Thomas m. Margaret, daughter and sole heir of John Chambre, of Thurgerton”.
(https://books.google.ca/books?id=0NEKAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA855&lpg=PA855&dq=The+family+of+Doughty+derives+from+THOMAS+DOUGHTY,+of+Hanworth,+co.+&source=bl&ots=a8QZoNdzql&sig=ACfU3U0dtIeYJvFIHxPSlX153LQkAv7mKA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwil8N7Ph8bmAhWaGs0KHVnQDHYQ6AEwAHoECAgQAQ#v=onepage&q=The%20family%20of%20Doughty%20derives%20from%20THOMAS%20DOUGHTY%2C%20of%20Hanworth%2C%20co.&f=false).
I’ve identified the following information about John Chambre (b c 1385):
[1] “Chambre (JOHN CHAMBRE, of Thurgaton [sic], Sheriff of Norfolk, 1435). Az. a key in pale betw. two mullets of six points fesswise or.”
(source: ‘The General Armory of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales’, (1884) - http://books.google.ca/books?id=WmpmAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA182&lpg=PA182&dq=%22chambre,+john%22+%22the+general+armory+of+england%22&source=bl&ots=LsdVbgOKGy&sig=S8S_K2_kaPVe9tmRxa_Cexw2pxQ&hl=en&ei=PY7ATtLeGIqU0QGhz9y6BA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CBoQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q&f=false)
[2] “Chambre, John, of Thurgarton, Sheriff 1435. Dashwood ascribes: Az., a key in pale between 3 mullets of 6 points or.”

[3] “Chambre, 1435, John, of Thurgaton. Azure, a key in pale, between two mullets of six points fesswise or. Visit. Norf. Harl. M.S S. ... —CHAMBRE, for Thurgaton read Thurgarton—”

However, I cannot identify any further information about this John Chambre such as, for example, his family background and parentage and whether he, or a Thomas Chambre, was actually the Sheriff of Norfolk in 1435. In the same volume of ‘Vicecomites Norfolciae’, a “Thomas Chambre” is stated to have been the Sheriff of Norfolk in 1435. (see - https://books.google.ca/books?id=7eoHAAAAQAAJ&pg=PT18&lpg=PT18&dq=%22thomas+chambre%22+%22sheriffs+of+norfolk%22&source=bl&ots=J0WQfmBJik&sig=ACfU3U2xAsn9MzOwqdCpRbKDwLOL8OmuFg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiT6dm8jMbmAhXJPM0KHRlyB5wQ6AEwAXoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=%22thomas%20chambre%22%20%22sheriffs%20of%20norfolk%22&f=false)
I would very much appreciate any assistance in helping me identify further information about John Chambre (b c 1385) (purported father of Margaret Chambre wife of Thomas Doughty of Hanworth, Norfolk) and the Chambre family from which he descends. Thank you!
Cheers,
Pete

Just a brief follow-up. I see there is the following reference in ‘Index to Four Series of Norfolk Inquisitions’, Volume II, (1892), edited by Walter Rye, p. 31:
“Chambre, de la or del – John de la Chambre; Tower, 26 Hen. VI., No. 6 (4, p. 234b).”
(source: https://archive.org/details/norfolkrecords12norf/page/30)
Does anyone have access to the volume referenced in this entry, or know the source to which it refers? I’d like to review a copy of the above entry. Many thanks!

The Princes also have two Doughty lines of descent. Richard K. Evans' "The Ancestry of Diana, Princess of Wales," cuts off after [4768] Robert Doughty,
m. [4769] Sarah Bransby and [4776] William Doughty m. [4777] Frances Kemp
Some of their descendants leading to the late Princess of Wales and her sons from Leo van de Pas' outstanding Genealogics database.
https://www.genealogics.org/descendtext.php?personID=I00431413&tree=LEO&display=block&generations=8
https://www.genealogics.org/descendtext.php?personID=I00431398&tree=LEO&display=block&generations=8
Leo listed Thomas Doughty and Maragaret Chambre's fathers in his database, nothing above and beyond that.
I hope everyone has a great holiday season and best wishes for 2020!

We should be a bit careful about attributing all the data in Genealogics to Leo now. In this case, the earlier Doughty data was based on information provided to Ian Fettes after Leo died.
