There seems to be two sets of children under the first marriage. Perhaps is this a spacing error?

And in my scant family records, I have Margaret Percy married to William Gascoigne IX, and I have Margarets death as 04 Mar 1486. I just thought I ought to mention this in case there was a previous marriage to a sister, before Maud.

Can we mark at least her father as confident? I don't see any sources for her mother.
You are right, there was no source for the mother and there was no reliable source for the father but rather a reference to Wikipedia. That said, there were some citations to Richardsons works and I was able to use one of them for the father and the other for the mother (actually, that one was good for both parents) and marked them both confident.

The profile was a bit of a mess so I did some housecleaning and added a notables sticker. If you know of some other sources, please do not be shy.

Margret had a daughter and there is some controversy about her given name. Some say, Anne, some Agnes. Regardless, she married Sir Thomas Fairfax. They had a set of twins, Nicholas and William. William died young so they reused the name William for the next boy. This William was a direct ancestor to HRH Catherine, Princess of Wales.

Nicholas had several children. His daughter Margaret was the direct ancestress of Albert, 7th Earl Spencer. A son named William was a direct ancestor to Cynthia, daughter of the 3rd Duke of Abercorn. Albert and Cynthia married and were great-grandparents of HRH Prince William, Prince of Wales. Depending on which lineage you follow, Kate & Will are 14th cousins, once removed. Will is now Prince of Wales and future King.

Anthony Adolph wrote an article about the time of the birth of Prince George of Cambridge. While I can't be sure, I think he wrote it to show that while Kate was not born Royal, she certainly had Royal Bloodlines. See this article at URL

There should be an admission that Kate was not a Princess nor would she have a Princess before her name. She is now the Princess of Wales, but that is not the same as the way her daughter is already. HRH Princess Charlotte of Wales. When Will succeeds to the throne, Charlotte should become Princess Royal, after the passing of Princess Anne. This all depends on the expected timelines.

Margaret Percy, married William Gascoigne, Knt., of Gawthorpe, Yorkshire.

Thank you!

Brydges thought she had a 2nd husband

Collins's Peerage, Vol. 2, p. 297.

But it seems like this could equally be about a Margaret Douglas who married some Percy.

Thx Andrew. Maybe post to G2G for Magna Carta since they list Ralph.

Dubious second marriage. Richardson mentions a Maud Percy, not a Margaret, and does not explain who her parents were. See http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/GEN-MEDIEVAL/2006-08/1155280035
