[large-G675.FTW]
There is conflict between the sources as to whom she actually married.
- Michael Altschul, *A Baronial Family in Medieval England: The Clares, 1217-1314*, Baltimore MD (The Johns Hopkins Press) 1965, concerning the partition of the de CLARE estates after the death of the last Gilbert, p 170-171: Rogery Damory and Elizabeth took the bulk of the honor of Clare in East Anglia, including the castle and manor of Clare and the pleas of the honor court, as well as Cranbourne and the other Dorset manors and boroughs. In addition, each heir acquired two-ninths of the liberty of Kilkenny in Ireland, although there is no evidence that any of them every visited it. (P) The death of the countess in the summer of 1320 completed the division of the estates among th heirs. Maud probably died on July 2, and the properties she held in dower must have been partitioned shortly thereafter. Each received an equal portion of her third of Kilkenny. The partition of the Clare estates has been
described as "the most important territorial upheaval of the reign."
