Hales, could make the payments himself if preferred. The Prior and Convent were to keep the anniversary obits of Sir Thomas and Dame Joan Felton and their son Thomas Felton. Joan lived until at least March 1408. Family Around 1357 Felton married Joan de Walkefare, and their three daughters and coheiresses were born soon afterwards. There was also a son, Thomas. Most secondary sources follow Blomefield's guess, in making Joan a daughter of Sir Richard de Walkefare of Great Ryburgh, Ingoldisthorpe, Isleham, etc. (died 1371). However Walkfare's only daughter and heiress named as such in primary sources is Alianore, wife of John Le Strange, who was born c. 1357 and betrothed in childhood. Although closely connected with them, Joan's life-dates and land transactions suggest that Joan may have been rather a sister of Sir Richard, and daughter of Sir Robert de Walkefare (died 1334), patron of Binham Priory and Lancastrian rebel. An account of the Walkfare descent is traced for the manors of Isleham, and a pedigree is attempted by Walter Rye. The arms and crest of Sir Thomas de Felton are illustrated in colour on the dustjacket cover of Joan Corder's Dictionary of Suffolk Crests. The children of Sir Thomas de Felton and Joan de Walkfare were: Mary Felton (born c. 1357), was betrothed in infancy, c. 1362 and married first to (1) Edmund Hemgrave, of Hengrave, Suffolk, who died overseas in 1374. She is then said to have married (2) Sir Thomas de Breton in 1374 (in the chapel of Sir Thomas de Felton's mansion house in Candlewick Street, London), and after him (3) Sir Geoffrey de Workeseley (Worsley), around 1376 at Leamington, "for his advancement", whose manors of Worsley and Hulton were settled upon the marriage. However these were seized in 1376 by the sheriff in respect of a debt of 6000 marks. It was later found that Mary's former husband had not died until November or December 1380, in Aquitaine, and the marriage to Sir Geoffrey was declared null. Sir Thomas Felton died in 1381. Sir Geoffrey, who had been in the Spanish war and had been a prisoner of war, claimed that the divorce was urged on her by his servant Thomas Pulle, who, being charged to protect Mary during Geoffrey's absence abroad, had dishonoured her (and, as he asserted, had married her). Returning, Geoffrey (who was re-enfeoffed in his manor of Worsley) had attacked
