 William Aldeburgh, 1st Baron Aldeburgh 1) 2)Died 1388 1) Notes: William de Aldeburgh, 1st Baron Aldeburgh was a 14th-century English nobleman and the builder of Harewood Castle. Of Aldeburgh and Harewood. Co-heiress of William, 2nd Lord Aldeburgh, her brother. Married/ Related to:  Elizabeth Unknown 3)Notes: William is traditionally said to have married Elizabeth, daughter of John de L'Isle. While there are various property transactions which suggest this could have been the case - e.g. transfer of Harewood castle - it should be noted that these were all purchases, therefore are of very limited weight. The theory can, however, be discounted (or at least made very unlikely) based on her seal, which survives and depicts her arms - these are very distinct to the de L'Isle arms. John Mowbray and Margaret Percy, have been suggested by Libby Richardson as alternative parents - https://groups.google.com/g/soc.genealogy.medieval/c/SIIRO5QqROQ/m/umGXKOSkZukJ - but again, the evidence is weak: the seal seeming to have the Mowbray arms, and other property transactions. Child: 1. Elizabeth Aldeburgh 1)Born 1364 1) 2) Died 21 Dec 1417, 52 or 53 years 1) Notes: Elizabeth, and her sister Sibyl were heiresses to their brother William Aldeburgh, 2nd Baron Aldeburgh, when he died without issue.
