    Notes:

    Some have Alice also married to Thomas Leigh, with a son Thomas, b. 1415. There is no way, except for divorce or extra-marrital affair, that Alice could be married and had the children by both husbands. I have three published sources on Alice's marriage to John Gerard and none of them mention a second marriage for Alice, nor a divorce which would have allowed her to marry another before her husband died.

    One source (Denise Plath-Slattery, World Connect), has the Alice who m. Thomas Leigh as a daughter of Thomas Boteler (and Alice Beauchamp). The dates support that pedigree.
