  • Notes 
    • --- Michael Altschul, *A Baronial Family in Medieval England: The Clares,
      1217-1314*, Baltimore MD (Johns Hopkins Press) 1965. p 39-40:
      The other daughter, Joan, probably born sometime between 1264 and 1271, was married in 1284 to Duncan, earl of Fife, who died in 1288. The marriage of their son Duncan (d. 1353) to Mary, daughter of Joan of Acre and Ralph de Monthermer, has already been mentioned [see note under Joan of Acre]. In 1302 or shortly thereafter, Joan married another Scots baron, Gervase Avenel. They entered the fealty of her kinsman Robert Bruce and were declared rebels by King Edward II. Her estates in England, which her father had given as a marriage portion at the time of her betrothal to the earl of Fife, were forfeited, and later granted to Hugh Despenser, husband of Joan's half sister Eleanor, the eldest daughter of Earl Gilbert the Red and Joan of Acre."
