Aylesbury’s death on 9 Sept. 1418 was followed in 1422 by that of his son John, still a minor, and, just a year later, by that of John’s infant son Hugh — an untoward sequence of events which left as the heirs to the Aylesbury estates Sir Thomas’s daughters, Isabel Chaworth and Eleanor, afterwards wife of Sir Humphrey Stafford† of Grafton. The two women were not, however, destined to inherit the Pavenham and Engaine lands belonging to their mother: when she died in 1436, these passed to Laurence Cheyne, her son by her first husband.
