General Notes:
Weis' Ancestral Roots of Certain American Colonists Who Came to America before 1700, 8th Edition, 28:34-35 & Magna Charta Sureties, 1215, Weis, 35:8, gives Alice's parents as Edmund Fitz Alan and Sibyl Montagu, daughter of William Montagu. Most other sources, Burke and Collins including, also call Alice the daughter of Sir Edmund Fitz Alan. Cokayne's Complete Peerage, 2nd Edition, Vol. I, on the other hand makes her the daughter of Richard Fitz Alan and Isabel Despenser and the sister of Edmund.
