Note: The CP Corrections website provides a little more information and indicates that Thomas had a previously unknown 1st wife, Eleanor (d. bef. 1480), daughter of Henry Percy (d. 1461). She may have died very early, without having resided with Thomas (arranged marriages were often contracted at an early age), since she wasn't mentioned in Thomas' will, as his deceased 2nd wife & surviving 3rd wife were. The only record of Eleanor Percy is a pedigree of the Percy family compiled in the 1480s which showed a daughter of Henry married to a Lord de la Warr.

Thomas married Eleanor PERCY in 1st Wife. Eleanor was born about 1460 in Alnwick Castle, Alnwick, Northumberland, England; died before 1480 in Offington, Sussex, England (Dsp). [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Thomas married Elizabeth MORTIMER about 1480 in 2ND Wife. Elizabeth (daughter of Hugh MORTIMER, Of Mortimer's Hall, Sir and Eleanor CORNWALL) was born about 1457 in Mortimer's Hall, Stratfield Mortimer, Berkshire, England; died on 29 Jun 1502. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
