Jane Basset 
Jane was born about 1368 in Glastonbury, Wells, Somerset, England. Jane's father was Of Sapcote, Sir Ralph 1St Baron Basset Of Sapcote, Sir and her mother was Alice De Driby. Her paternal grandparents were Ralph Basset and Sibyl Astley; her maternal grandparents were John De Driby and Amy De Gaveston. She had a sister named Elizabeth. She was the older of the two children. She had a half-brother named William.General Notes
Many people have Jane as daughter of Ralph of Drayton by Joan de Beauchamp, but he dvp, as indicated by his will. Also indicated by his heirs is that Ralph had only one sister (Isabel); and there is some question about her legitimacy; so Jane is also not a daughter of the prior generation (Ralph of Drayton & Alice Audley).
I see by the soc.genealogy.medieval that at least one person (Sid Telford) has Jane as daughter of Ralph Basset of Sapcote by Alice Driby. The dates would support such a pedigree; although the Complete Peerage mentions no daughter named Jane for Ralph of Sapcote, who died without male heir.
I have found no written source for Jane, although I find a hint that "Magna Charta Barons" might have indicated Jane was daughter of Ralph of Drayton & Joan de Beauchamp (which may be the source of the numerous people who have the pedigree that way). The hint is from Dave Utzinger, which has "MCB" as the source for Jane being daughter of Ralph & Joan. Dave sent an e-mail to soc.genalogy.medieval in 1998 indicating Jane was daughter of Ralph & Joan, however he has since removed Jane from that relationship.
Most people give Jane a birth year of 1378, with a son John b. 1384 (at the age of 6). Some have 1368, which seems reasonable. Also John's son might have been born later than 1384, especially when considering his daughter's birth year, which is what I am assuming, estimating his birth year at 1394.
