Notes
- Ankaret Le Strange remained the Baroness of Blackmere during her firstmarriage to Richard Lord Talbot of Goodrich (spelled Goderich in thattime) Lord Talbot. Lord Talbot was the custodian of the Le StrangeCastle of Blackmere as well as his Goderich Castle. At her death shepassed the Blackmere title to her second husband Thomas 6th LordFurnival Neville. At her death Thomas Neville became Lord Strange ofBlackmere. Thus the Blackmere title and lands passed from the LeStrange family into the Neville family.
The date of marriage is a bit uncertain. Two sources, connected withthe Le Strange family line, report the marriage to Richard Talbot wason or before 23 August 1383. A source in the World Family Tree(anonymous compilation of Genealogy.com) has only the general date of1375, which is 8 years before the exact date 23 August 1383 in theother sources.
I would normally prefer a source that gives an exact date. Theseother sources, Tudorplace and Worldroots, have seemed credible andcareful. However, with a birth date for Ankaret of about 1350, themarriage date in 1383 would mean that Ankaret did not marry until shewas 33. This is very unusual for that period.
The date of 1383, However, is also attractive because it is one yearbefore the birth of the Talbots' first child John. This also seemsexpected.
