- Biography
Joan le Despenser, was born about 1264 in Southampton, LIN, England.[1] She was the daughter of Sir Hugh le Despenser (b. c 1223, d. 4 Aug 1265) by Aliva (Aline) Basset (b. 1245, d. c 11 Apr 1281).[2]
Joan married Sir Thomas de Furnival (b. c 1260, d. 3 Feb 1332), 1st Lord Furnivall[2] in Loughborough, Leicestershire, England.[3] A settlement for the marriage was made on 13 January 1273[2]:
"Thomas de Furnyvall came into chancery and acknowledged that he owed to Joan, daughter of Hugh le Despenser, 1,000 marks, on condition that if Thomas de Furnyvall, son and heir of the said Thomas, now a minor, married to Joan with his father's will, shall presume to do anything against that marriage when he shall come of age, Thomas his father shall pay to Joan the said 1,000 marks within the first year after Thomas the son shall have protested (reclamaverit) against the marriage. which sum shall be levied in default of payment of his lands and chattels in co. York."[4]
They had [two sons[5]] and four daughters:[2]
Sir Thomas, 2nd Lord Furnival (c 1292-14 Oct 1339)
Gilbert (1290-1322)
Maud (c 1284-after 30 Nov 1348), wife of Sir John Marmion, 2nd Lord Marmion, & of Sir Roger la Zouche
Katherine/Catherine (c 1294-1349), wife of Willilam de Thwenge, 2nd Lord Thwenge
Eleanor (c 1286-1335), wife of Peter de Mauley, 4th Lord Mauley
Aline (born c 1282)
While it was previously believed that Joan (Despenser) de Furnival died before 8 June 1322[2] in Worksop, Sheffield, Nottinghamshire, England,[3], a newly discovered document indicates that she died in 1314 or earlier: "In Hilary term 1314 Stephen de Stanham sued Thomas de Furnivall, Adam de Brom, and John, parson of the church of Whistan, Yorkshire, executors of the will of Joan late the wife of Thomas de Furnivall, in the Court of Common Pleas regarding a debt of 100s."[6]
