♂Ralph de Beaupre

Dates not yet known.

Ralph de Beaupre was a Cornish knight of Trenoweth-with-Trewithgy, in the parish of Probus, Cornwall. He was the twenty-first great-grandfather of Nancy Jane Blanchard (1929–2006), through his daughter Isabel de Beaupre.

Ralph is said to have been the son of Sir Stephen de Beaupre, a knight of Kelynack, in the parish of St. Just, Cornwall, and his wife Isabel FitzWilliam. He married Margaret de Furneaux. Their daughter Isabel de Beaupre married John de Longland, an esquire of Grove, in the parish of South Brent, Somerset, the village now called Brent Knoll. Isabel’s third daughter, Agnes Longland, was born at Axbridge, in Somerset, about 1370.

Notes

Sources

Ralph’s knighthood, his seat, his parents, his marriage and his daughter are from Douglas Richardson, Plantagenet Ancestry, 2nd edition (2011), vol. 1, pp. 173–174, a compiled genealogy, in the descent chart that opens its account of Agnes Longland. Ralph and Margaret appear there by name only, without an entry of their own; Richardson gives the Longland family in full under Fitz Ives in vol. 2.

Dates

No date is given for Ralph’s birth, marriage or death. The nearest date in the family is his granddaughter Agnes’s birth about 1370, from her age of ten in 1380.
