Sometime ago, Chris Phillips expressed a wish to have some contemporary
evidence for the parentage of Alice Beauchamp, wife of Thomas le
Boteler, Lord Sudeley, "rather than having to rely on the much later
visitation pedigrees."

Evidence suppporting the visitation pedigrees is afforded us by Alice
Beauchamp's own seal which shows Boteler of Sudeley impaling Beauchamp
of Powick. Alice Beauchamp's seal is attached to a contemporary record
dated 1410, an abstract of which I've copied below. At the date of
this record, Alice Beauchamp was the widow of Sir John Dallingridge and
earlier of Sir Thomas le Boteler, Lord Sudeley.

Thanks for posting this information. At least it gives us some firm
contemporary evidence of Alice's family, even if it doesn't confirm exactly
where she fits in.
