[Complete Peerage XII/2:252, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)] (g) As, however, her issue by her 2nd husband appears to have been disinherited and her lands descended to the issue of her 3rd marriage, it is possible that her representatives may be found among those of Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex (who dsps 1646).
