Commentary
Cawley: "Two contradictory sources record Matilda’s parentage. The earlier document indicates that she was the daughter of Rohese, daughter of Nicholas de Verdun: “Roes de Verdun” paid the king to avoid demands for money from the executors of the will of “Johis fil Alani”, relating to money owed to “Johi fil pfati Johis qui duxit in ux fil pfate Roes”, dated 10 Oct 1242. If this first document is correct, she was Matilda de Verdun, daughter of Theobald Butler [Le Botiller] & his second wife Rohese de Verdun ([1226/30]-[1243] or 27 Nov 1283. Secondly, a later document names Clementia, wife of Nicholas, as her mother: an undated inquisition (other related inquisitions are dated Feb 1273) after the death of "Robert Waleraund" which records that the deceased held "Stupellaunton [Steeple Lavington, otherwise Market Lavington, Wiltshire]...of the gift of Lady Maud de Albo Monasterio [=“Oswaldestre, which is called Blancmostre”, as recorded in the inquisitions of her son John, see below] sometime the wife of Sir John son of Alan, who had the land in free marriage from Lady Clemence de Verdun her mother". The original conveyance is recorded in an abstract of the 1269 fine by “Maud Whitechurch” to “Robert Walrond”. If that second document is correct, she was Matilda de Verdun, daughter of Nicholas de Verdun & his wife Clementia le Botiler ([1220/25?]-27 Nov 1283). No document has been found which clarifies which of these two documents is correct, although no primary source has been identified which excludes the possibility of two different persons named Matilda de Verdun, whom John FitzAlan married successively. In that case, the requirement for a Papal dispensation for affinity for the second marriage could have been waived if the earlier commitment was a betrothal which was terminated by death before the marriage was completed"
