In it he bequeaths to his eldest son Edward and youngest son Richard, and for default of issue, to the daughters of his brother Combe. I would assume this means Edward was the only male heir of Sir John Elrington. He also mentioned his brother-in-law Richard Shirley Esq. And thus in the Visitation of Sussex (HSP 53), it lists Beatrix Shirley as marrying Edward Elrington of Hoxton. Did Margaret Echingham marry a 4th time? 46. John Elryngton, the elder, Robert Forster, and Robert Kyllyngham, and Margaret, his wife, widow of Thomas Combes, "gentilman." A messuage and garden in Tryllemylstrete, next Clerkenwell. Warranty against William, abbot of the church of the Blessed Mary and St. Modwenne, of Burton upon Trent. Anno 13.

Warranty against William, abbot of the church of the Blessed Mary and St. Modwenne, of Burton upon Trent. Anno 13. I have only ever found three marriages for Margaret Echingam, firstly to William Blount who died in the Battle of Barnet 1471, secondly Sir John Elrington and thirdly Thomas Combe. The daughters of the Brother Combe are the daughters 'begotten of my sister Anne' (from my reading of the actual will). Anne Elrington was the wife of Edward Combe. I do not know the relationship between Thomas and Edward Combe.
