Joan de Verdun , Heiress of Alton 
Joan de was born in Wootton, Stanton Lacy, Shropshire, England. Joan de's father was Theobald 2nd Baron de Verdun , MP, Sir and her mother was Maud de Mortimer. Her paternal grandparents were Theobald 1st Baron de Verdun , Sir and Margery (Margaret) de Bohun , Heiress of Bisley. She had two sisters named Elizabeth de and Margery de. She had a half-sister named Isabel de. She died on October 2nd, 1334.General Notes
Joan (born 9 or 11 Aug 1303; m. 1st 28 April 1317 John de Montagu (dsp & vp by 14 Aug 1317), eldest son of 2nd Lord (Baron) Montagu of the 1299 creation; d. 2 Oct 1334), eldest daughter and coheir of Theobald de Verdun, 1st/2nd Lord (Baron) Verdun, who brought him Alton Castle and other estates in Staffs. [Burke's Peerage]
Note: Despite the placement of the ")" above, I am pretty sure "2 Oct 1334" is Joan's death date. The 2nd Lord Montagu died well before 1334, because his widow, Elizabeth de Montfort, married Thomas Furnival's father in 1322.
