Comment

To Whom It May Concern"

The siblings of Edward III and Alive Perrers do NOT include Jane and Joan Plantagenet.

THANK YOU FOR WIKIPEDIA!

This is listed under Alive Perrers - I have cut and pasted the last three paragraphs. The siblings are listed in the last paragraph.

WIKIPEDIA - Alice Perrers

I moved the above here... it had been entered IN the article. I've been meaning to work on this article anyway. Soon. Leesonma 05:12, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Siblings" are sisters and brothers. We don't know the siblings of Alice (but I think the word you wanted was "children.") Jane and Joan are probably identical, as these are just various English versions of the feminine of John. The number of her children by the king is disputed.Dearagon 04:59, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Historians have speculated on Alice's parentage for centuries. We do not know if Perrers was her father's surname and if it was, which possible male Perrers may have been her father. I therefore deleted the declarative statement of her father's identity.Dearagon 17:20, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Opening Statement

"....a 14th-century royal mistress who challenged established class and social distinctions[citation needed] via her scandalous adulterous relationship with King Edward III of England and her acquisition of significant land holdings": This reads too much like a twenty-first century revisionist take on Perrers. I will reword it so the tone is more encyclopedic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Miss Tabitha (talk • contribs) 00:12, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Children

So I was just reading the article on Edward and it says that unlike his predecessors he did not father any illegitimate children. Yet here it says that he fathered a bastard with Alice Perrers. Could somebody do something about that? I don't like changing articles because I'm not very good at doing the whole links thing properly. Thanks. Lenachka25 (talk) 07:36, 10 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sir John de Southeray and Matilda Percy?

Where exactly is the information coming from that Edward III and Alice had a son named John? I can't find anything on it other then on amateur sites. Also, that he married Matilda Percy? Hotspur and Elizabeth Mortimer had two children; Henry and Elizabeth. Even though it is incorrect and is being taken out, on Hotspurs page it said that Matilda died young, so how could she have married John and had two children?! Wikipedia ancestry is so off it's unbelievable! I'm rather disgusted seeing all these errors which leads people who are researching ancestry to believe that they are descended from these people. I've even had run ins with people who insist that they are a descendant of so and so and have ended up adding that person on here (Wikipedia) to make it seem legit when people have NO clue that Wikipedia can be altered by ANYONE! When is there going to be a disclaimer at the top of this site which states that?? Plantagenet Ancestry -- Lady Meg (talk) 06:34, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hopefully someone will add the requested citations. And let us send up a prayer that the citation is not a self-published genealogy site.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 17:46, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wheel of Fortune

Don't know if you've read Susan Howatch's novel which extends from Edward III through Henry V. I think Milly Straker was based on Alice. 71.163.114.49 (talk) 15:41, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
