  • Notes 
    • That his wife's name was Margaret is certain; that she was Lady Margaret de Brewse is not. It is rather more likely that she was the daughter of one Roger or William de Rising or Woodrising, of merely local importance.

      St. Mary's church includes (or included) many armorial bearings and impalements, but that of de Brewse is not to be found. If his wife were a de Brewse, surely her family's blazon would have been prominently featured?
      BUT

      Margaret Braose who married William Witchingham, to whom John de Brewes bequeathed a silver cup.[5]
      Notes
      "Sir John de Brewes by his will [Reg. Haydon fol. 11] dated in May 1370 he requires to be buried in the chancel, gives to Sir John de Brews, one of his best horses, to the lady Eve his wife, 5 marks and a silver cup with a cover, to Sir John de Brews, junior 40s. to Giles his brother 40s. the lady Margaret, wife of Sir William de Wychingham, a silver cup with a cover; he was chancellor to the bistiop of Norwich."[6]
