Her paternal grandparents were Henry III Plantagenet and Eleanor; her maternal grandparents were Ferdinand III King of Castile & León and Johanna de Dammartin. She had two sisters named Elizabeth and Eleanor. She had three half-brothers named Edward II, John de Botetourt and Edmund of. She died at the age of 35 on April 23rd, 1307 in Clare, Suffolk, England.1 General Notes
[SUSANNA KEENE.FTW]
Sole mistress of estates of her son Gilbert during his
minority.
She controlled them with marked ability.
She introduced important modifications to the administration
of the estate.
One of greatest examples in 13th century England of ability of
women to govern.
Interred at the Priory Church of the Austin Friars in Clare.
She stands as a leading example in 13th century English history
of the ability of a widow to run the estates and otherwise
manage the complex affairs of a great comital house.
Joan of Acre died in April, 1307, but during her tenure of the
inheritance of Gloucester important modifications were
introduced in its administrative structure. After Isabella de
Fortibus, dowager countess of Devon and Aumale (1262-93),
Countess Joan stands as perhaps the best example in thirteenth
century English history of the ability of a widow to run the
estates and otherwise manage the complex affairs of a great
comital house."
