Joan Bampfield - Parents

Thank you for these comments. Disconnected as daughter of Amias Bampfield, MP

I think she was mixed up with her daughter in law, Dorothy Doddridge

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amyas_Bampfylde

By his wife he had six sons and four daughters as follows:

• Dorothy Bampfield (died 1614), wife successively of Edward Hancock (died 1603), MP, lord of the manor of Combe Martin, Devon, and later wife of Sir John Doddridge (1555–1628), of Bremridge, near North Molton, Justice of the King's Bench.

The notes in the profile for Joan, wife of Richard Doddridge, merchant, of Barnstaple are:

Joan Bam(p)field married Bancock but when widowed married Dodderidge/Doddridge.

But so far, I don’t see a name for Richard’s wife:

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Doddridge

… Richard Doddridge, merchant, of Barnstaple. The family took its name from the manor of Dodderidge in the parish of Sandford, near Crediton, Devon. Richard was the son of a wool merchant and was born in South Molton, in which town he married. With his wife and eight children before 1582 he moved to Holland Street, Barnstaple and served as Mayor of Barnstaple in 1589.[25] A certain John Dodderidge, perhaps a relation, is recorded earlier in 1579 as mayor of Barnstaple.[26] In 1585 he bought a house in Cross Street from his fellow burgess Thomas Skinner, which descended in turn to his sons Sir John and to the latter's brother Pentecost Dodderidge (d. circa 1650), MP for Barnstaple in 1621, 1624 and 1625 and mayor of Barnstaple in 1611, 1627 and 1637]

Dorothy Bampfield had a sister Jane / Joan, so perhaps that led to the confusion.

Here she is:
