Biography
Joan de Everingham, was a daughter of Adam de Everingham.[1] Adam was of Laxton, Nottinghamshire.[2][3] It is presumed her mother was Joan, daughter of Sir John Deiville.[3]
Her year of birth is unknown. She had been married or betrothed to her first husband Richard Baskerville in 1348.[1] Based on the evidence described below she was the mother of Richard Baskerville who was born 1369/1370, suggesting she was probably a minor when betrothed and hence may have been born c 1340-1345.
Marriage to Richard Baskerville
Joan Everingham married first Richard Baskerville of Eardisley, Herefordshire.[1]
While she has been most commonly noted in Baskerville pedigrees as the wife of the Richard Baskerville who died 1394 or 1395, and as the mother of John Baskerville [4][5][6][7][8][9][10], the evidence available indicates that she was the wife of the Richard Baskerville of the prior generation i.e. Sir Richard Baskerville who died on 20 Mar 1373/1374.[11]
Norr[12] placed her as a first wife of the Sir Richard Baskerville, knight, who died on 20 March 1373/1374. However, she appears to have been the only wife of Sir Richard Baskerville.
In 1348 Richard Baskerville, knight, granted the manor of Stretton by Sugwas to his son Richard and Joan, daughter of Adam de Everingham:[1] Two weeks from St Hilary, 22 Edward III [27 January 1348]. And afterwards one week from Holy Trinity in the same year [22 June 1348]. Parties: Richard de Baskeruill', knight, querent, and John Boter, deforciant. Property: The manor of Stretton' by Sugwas. Action: Plea of covenant. Agreement: Richard has acknowledged the manor to be the right of John, as that which John has of his gift. For this: John has granted to Richard the manor and has rendered it to him in the court, to hold to Richard, of the chief lords for the life of Richard. And after the decease of Richard the manor shall remain to Richard, son of the same Richard, and Joan, daughter of Adam de Eueryngham, and the heirs of their bodies, to hold of the chief lords for ever. In default of such heirs, remainder to the right heirs of the aforesaid Richard de Baskeruill'.
By a Fine dated the quinzaine of Hilary 1348/9 Sir Richard Baskerville settled the manor of Combe Baskerville on a Richard Baskerville and his wife, the said Joan, and the heirs of their bodies, at an annual rent of a rose at the Nativity of St John Baptist, with remainder to Sir Richard and his heirs, in return for 100 marks of silver. A John de Stretton was named as the guardian of the querents.[13]
In 1348 Sir Richard Baskerville conveyed the manor of Combe Baskerville [Gloucestershire] to his son, also Richard, from whom it passed to his son Richard in 1392[14] [presumably as the third Richard came of age in 1392].
After the death of Sir Richard Baskerville in c 1365 his widow Isabella married John de Nowers, Knight, as in 1367 John de Nowers, Knt., and Isabel his wife sued Richard de Baskerville, Knt., and Joan his wife in the Court of Common Pleas regarding the manor of Combe Baskerville , Gloucestershire, which the said Isabel claimed as dower of the dotation of Richard de Baskerville, Knt., her late husband; Joan, wife of the said Richard, is stated in the lawsuit to be the daughter of Adam de Everingham, of Laxton.[15]
