Notes for Richard "Copped Hat" Fitz ALAN "10th Earl of Arundel"
[3rd COUSIN-24 TIMES REMOVED]+ [A] [K] As of 9 February 1320/21, her married name was FitzAlan. Her marriage to Richard FitzAlan, 10th Earl of Arundel was annulled on 4 December 1344 by Papal mandate, supposedly on the grounds that they were married during their minority, and without their consent. The reality is that the Earl probably wished to be rid of his wife, who had no value to him after her father's attainder and exectution. - [1] [1] - http://www.thepeerage.com/p11649.htm#i116489 [2] -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleanor_de_Clare
