This source is obviously wrong, as it has it has the heiress of Stockhay marrying the heiress of Crauthorn. Could it be the source that Maud's mother was a Stockhay.?

He (John Beaumont) "married Joan the heiress of Robert Stockhay, who had married the heiress of Robert Crauthorn."
So, who do we believe? Was Maud's mother Joan Crawthorn or Joan Stockheye?
