    • Biography
      Alice, daughter of Sir Thomas de Berkeley (b. c 1170, d. 29 Nov 1243) and Joane de Somery (b. c 1196, d. 22 May 1276), married Sir Ralph Stourton (d. a 1291), son of John Stourton, Esq. and Grace Hungerford. They had at least two children:[1]

      Edward (Eudo) de Stourton (d. b 1291)
      Sir William de Stourton (d. c 1350)
      Birth
      1234 (guess, see discussion), in either Gloucestershire or Wiltshire, England
      Berkeley, Gloucestershire, England (with 1219, 1258, and 183 birth years)[2][3][4]
      Berkeley Castle, Gloucestershire, England (with 1258 and 1268 birth years)[5]
      Stourton, Wiltshire, England[6]
      Married
      Married about 1287 and had at least two children.[7]
      Death
      1290,[6][3] Stourton, Wiltshire, England[5]
      Birth Year Discussion
      NOTE: Birth year is a guess.
      This profile had her birth as 1258, which is after her father's death in 1243. Thomas and Joan (Somery) Berkeley's family group sheet shows the other children to be born every two years, beginning a year after their marriage (in 1217). Following that pattern, with Alice being last born, her birth year would be 1234.
      Another, now merged, profile had birth year of 1219, which is possible (her brothers being born 1218 and 1220). Noland-165 21:00, 16 April 2015 (EDT)
      DOB edited to 1234 on April 17, 2015, as Alice is the youngest it seems unlikely her birthday would be 1219.
      Following are the dates that were in the text of this profile as of June 13, 2015:
      1219[2]
      1258[6][3]
      1268[5]
      about 1283, Berkeley, GLS, England (1283 birth year)[4]
