[292.2] Our authority is very particular as to the time, and gives not only the day but the hour: ‘Inter horam post nonam et horam ante horam secundam, viz., fere dimidiam horam ante horam secundam, luna curren., et erat clara dies.’

[292.3] Mother of the Lady Margaret Beaufort, Countess of Richmond, who was the mother of King Henry VII.

[292.4] So according to Sandford’s Genealogy of the Paston family in Mr. Worship’s communication to the Norfolk Archæology. But who was Anne, Countess of Beaumont? I find no Earl Beaumont in the peerage, but there was a William, Viscount Beaumont, who succeeded his father in that title in 1459. According to Dugdale, he had two wives, the first of whom was named Elizabeth, and the second Joan. His mother, who may have been living at this time, was also named Elizabeth, but I can find no Anne.
