Biography

Alianora was born about 1270. Alianora Unknown was the widow of Robert de Brus, 6th Lord Annandale and Earl of Carrick who died in 1304.
After Robert's death, Eleanor married Sir Richard Waleys. It is unclear if she was the mother of any of his children. Given that her previous husband did not die until 1304, and Stephen le Waleys was a knight by 1294, [1]he could not have been the son of Eleanor. Likewise, his sister Alice, if she was the mother of Edmund Peverel, born by 1310, could not have been the daughter of Eleanor. It is likely that all three of Richard's known children were the children of an earlier and unknown first wife.
Alice is likely the Alice who married Sir Robert Peverel given that her son Edmund inherited the manor of Offord Daneys, which had been part of Eleanor's dower from Robert de Brus[2] as well as having been held by Alice's brother-in-law, Walter Langton, bishop of Coventry. [3][4]
The manor of Offord Daneys had come to the grandmother of Robert le Brus ca 1237.[5]
Alianora passed away about 1331.
