Dear Newsgroup ~
Complete Peerage 1 (1910): 196–197 (sub Argentine) includes an account of the baronial Argentine family, which account was evidently prepared by the noted scholar, G.W. Watson.
On page 197, the history of Sir John d'Argentine, Knt., of Melbourn, Cambridgeshire, who died in 1382 is discussed. Regarding his marriage and children, the following information is provided:
"He married Margaret, daughter and heiress of Robert Darcy afsd., of Great Sturton, Lincoln, by Joan his wife. She died 1 Sep. 1383. He died s.p.m. legit. 18 or 26 Nov. 1382, leaving 3 daughters, or their issue, his coheirs. (1) Joan, wife of Sir Bartholomew Naunton ... (2) Elizabeth, wife of Sir Baldwin St. George ... (3) Maud, wife of Sir Ives FitzWarin. Among their representatives any hereditary barony, that may be held to have existed, is in abeyance." END OF QUOTE.
As it turns out, the third daughter, Maud Argentine, actually had three marriages, not one. Research indicates that Maud was born about 1353–59 (aged 24 or 30 in 1383). She married (1st) at an early age (as his 2nd wife) Sir John de Ferrers, Knt., of Bere Ferrers and Newton Ferrers, Devon, who was born c.1314 and who was living 15 July 1364. Following his death, Maud married (2nd) Sir Richard de Merton, Knt., of Great Torrington, Merton, and Sutcombe, Devonshire, who died 25 Sept. 1370. They had one daughter, Agnes, born posthumously in 1371. Dower was assigned to his widow, Maud, 30 October 1371 and 21 Dec. 1371. Maud married (3rd) about 20 Jan. 1372 (date of license to marry) Sir Yon (or Yonn, Yonne, Ioun) Fitz Warin, Knt., of Caundle Haddon, Lidlinch, Lydlinch Baret, Up Cerne, and Winterbourne Houghton, Dorset, etc. They had two daughters, Eleanor (wife of John Chidiock, Knt. and Ralph Bush, Esq.) and Alice (wife of Richard Whittington, Knt.). Sir Yon Fitz Warin died 5 (or 7) Sept. 1414, and was buried at Wantage, Berkshire. He left a will dated 6 Nov. 1412, proved 5 Feb. 1414/5.
The evidence which proves Maud's three marriages is as follows:
(1) In 1405 Ivo Fitz Waryn and Maud his wife sued Alexander Chambernoun and Joan his wife, John Flemmyng [Fleming], and Joan Ponynges [Poynings] in the Court of Common Pleas that they render to them reasonable dower of the said Maud of the free tenement held by John Ferrers, her late husband, in Shillingham (in Saltash), Cornwall.

(2) In 1405 Alexander Champernoun and Joan [Ferrers] his wife, Joan, Joan Ponynges [Poynings] daughter and heir of Elizabeth Ferrers, and John Flemmying [Fleming] son and heir of Leva Ferrers [which Joan, Elizabeth, and Leva were daughters and co-heirs of Martin Ferrers] sued Ivo Fitz Warin and Maud his wife in the Court of Common Pleas regarding the manors of Bere Ferrers and Newton Ferrers, Devon; five knights’ fees in Poselynde Puslinch (in Newton Ferrers) and other places, Devon, and five knights’ fees in Trehan (in St. Stephens by Saltash), Penpol (in Quethiock),Trehanna, Penpole, and other places in Cornwall.

Complete Peerage 1 (1910): 196–197 (sub Argentine) includes an account of the baronial Argentine family, which account was evidently prepared by the noted scholar, G.W. Watson.
On page 197, the history of Sir John d'Argentine, Knt., of Melbourn, Cambridgeshire, who died in 1382 is discussed. Regarding his marriage and children, the following information is provided:
"He married Margaret, daughter and heiress of Robert Darcy afsd., of Great Sturton, Lincoln, by Joan his wife. She died 1 Sep. 1383. He died s.p.m. legit. 18 or 26 Nov. 1382, leaving 3 daughters, or their issue, his coheirs. (1) Joan, wife of Sir Bartholomew Naunton ... (2) Elizabeth, wife of Sir Baldwin St. George ... (3) Maud, wife of Sir Ives FitzWarin. Among their representatives any hereditary barony, that may be held to have existed, is in abeyance." END OF QUOTE.
As it turns out, the third daughter, Maud Argentine, actually had three marriages, not one. Research indicates that Maud was born about 1353–59 (aged 24 or 30 in 1383). She married (1st) at an early age (as his 2nd wife) Sir John de Ferrers, Knt., of Bere Ferrers and Newton Ferrers, Devon, who was born c.1314 and who was living 15 July 1364. Following his death, Maud married (2nd) Sir Richard de Merton, Knt., of Great Torrington, Merton, and Sutcombe, Devonshire, who died 25 Sept. 1370. They had one daughter, Agnes, born posthumously in 1371. Dower was assigned to his widow, Maud, 30 October 1371 and 21 Dec. 1371. Maud married (3rd) about 20 Jan. 1372 (date of license to marry) Sir Yon (or Yonn, Yonne, Ioun) Fitz Warin, Knt., of Caundle Haddon, Lidlinch, Lydlinch Baret, Up Cerne, and Winterbourne Houghton, Dorset, etc. They had two daughters, Eleanor (wife of John Chidiock, Knt. and Ralph Bush, Esq.) and Alice (wife of Richard Whittington, Knt.). Sir Yon Fitz Warin died 5 (or 7) Sept. 1414, and was buried at Wantage, Berkshire. He left a will dated 6 Nov. 1412, proved 5 Feb. 1414/5.
The evidence which proves Maud's three marriages is as follows:
(1) In 1405 Ivo Fitz Waryn and Maud his wife sued Alexander Chambernoun and Joan his wife, John Flemmyng [Fleming], and Joan Ponynges [Poynings] in the Court of Common Pleas that they render to them reasonable dower of the said Maud of the free tenement held by John Ferrers, her late husband, in Shillingham (in Saltash), Cornwall.

(2) In 1405 Alexander Champernoun and Joan [Ferrers] his wife, Joan, Joan Ponynges [Poynings] daughter and heir of Elizabeth Ferrers, and John Flemmying [Fleming] son and heir of Leva Ferrers [which Joan, Elizabeth, and Leva were daughters and co-heirs of Martin Ferrers] sued Ivo Fitz Warin and Maud his wife in the Court of Common Pleas regarding the manors of Bere Ferrers and Newton Ferrers, Devon; five knights’ fees in Poselynde Puslinch (in Newton Ferrers) and other places, Devon, and five knights’ fees in Trehan (in St. Stephens by Saltash), Penpol (in Quethiock),Trehanna, Penpole, and other places in Cornwall.

Dear Newsgroup ~
Below is a lawsuit dated 1350 involving Maud Argentine's 1st husband, Sir John de Ferrers, Knt.
In 1350 John de Ferrers, Knt., sued Robert le Noble, of the City of Exeter, Devon, in the Court of Common Pleas in a Devon plea regarding damages against the said John which occurred at Exeter, Devon.

I don't currently have a death date for Maud Argentine. However, I've determined that she was living in Hilary and Easter terms 1406, as indicated by the following two Common Pleas lawsuits:
