      JOAN DEVEREUX, sister and heir, aged 17 and more at her brother's death. She married, 1stly, Sir Walter FITZWAUTER, 5th Lord FITZWAUTER, of Woodham Walter, Essex. They had livery of her inheritance, viz., the manor of Dinton, 2 August 1397, his fealty therefor being ordered to be taken by the escheator in co. Bucks. He, who was born In September 1368, at Henham, Essex, died 16 May 1406 aged 37. Will, directing his burial to be in the Church of Henham. On 1 July 1407 she had royal licence to marry whom she would, for a fine ot ?40. She married, 2ndly, before 29 January 1407/8, when her dower (of her 1st husband's lands) was ordered to be assigned, as 3rd wife, Sir Hugh BURNELL, of Holgate, Salop, Weoly, co. Worcester, &c. [LORD BURNELL], who died 27 November 1420, and whose will, dated at Weoly, 2 October 1417, was proved in the Palace of the Archbishop of Canterbury, 6 February 1420/1. She, for whom Robes of the Order of the Garter were ordered to be provided in 1399 and 1409, died 10 or 11 May 1409, and was buried in Dunmow Priory.

      Her heir was her 1st s., Humphrey FitzWauter, who was born 18 October 1398, at Penshurst, Kent, and died s.p. 1 September 1415, being succeeded by his next brother, Walter FitzWauter, who was born 22 June 1401, at Woodham Walter. Any hereditary Barony of Devereux, that may be supposed to have been created by the writ of 1384, was thus united to that of FitzWauter. [CP 4:301-2, 14:258]
