Alianor de Moleyns, Lady of Hungerford

My geneology shows alice as being born in 1445 and her father robert erd lord Hungerford being born in 1420 which would have made him 25 when she was born. Also have noticed weird discrepancies in some of the geneology websites.

Also, don't - as lots of people DO - get her mixed up with her aunt Eleanor (Alianor) who married John White of Swanbourne (and then Sir Henry Fitz-Lewis).

.

It is also possible that robert hungerford 2nd baron is alice hungerfords father, and her brother is robert hungerford 3rd.

Possible, but not likely, and rather pointless. The "Alice" in that generation was Alianor alias Eleanor. That's pretty well documented now.
