The Lady de Veer. Elizabeth, widow of Sir Andrew Lut- trell.(*) She had robes again 1387 to 1390 The Lady de Poynings. Blanche, widow of Thomas, Lord Poynings. She had robes again 1388, 1389, 1390, 1399, 1408, 1409 1386. The Countess of Oxford. Maud, widow of Thomas (de Veer), Earl of Oxford. She had robes again 1388 to 1390, 1399 that she was Elizabeth, da. of John of Gant, 1st wife of John (Hastings), Earl of Pembroke, the younger. It should be observed that in 1378 and 1379 "the two daughters [i.e. Philippe and Elizabeth] of the Duke of Lancaster " had robes. In 1 38 1 "The Countess of Pembroke" [i.e. Elizabeth, m. the previous year to John Hastings, the younger] and "Philippe, da. of the Duke of Lancaster." In 1382 and 1383 only the Queen and the Duchess of Lancaster are named as receiving robes, and the daughters of the Duke of Lancaster are probably among the " divers ladies" of the Wardrobe account. In 1384, 1385, and 1386, "The Countess of Pembroke" and "Philippe and Katherine daughters of the Duke of Lancaster" appear again on the accounts, and in the next year, and thereafter, they are not mentioned. The presumption is that Elizabeth was still known as Countess of Pembroke although she was divorced from John Hastings in 1383 and re-married next year. The retention of the title of her ist husband by a divorced woman or a widow was not unusual in earlier times, and is not impossible at this date. See the case of Lady de Veer, below. (^) Beltz says of her, " First the wife of Sir Andrew Luttrell of Dunster Castle, Somerset; andly of Sir John de Vere," being misled, apparently, by her designation as Lady de Vere. The fact is that Sir John de Veer was dead in 1350, and his widow married Sir Andrew Luttrell in 1359. She died in 1395, having survived her 2nd husband about 15 years. 76
