s. of Sir John Pauncefoot† (1368-aft. 1446), of Hasfield and Crickhowell castle by his w. Alice. The Commons 1386-1421, iv. 25-27. This biography of Sir John Pauncefoot suggests that the knight died c.1445, but he was still alive in Nov. 1446: CPR, 1494-1509, pp. 99-102. m. (1) 1429, Margaret, da. of Sir Henry Wogan of Pemb., 1s.; Kyre Park Chs. (Worcs. Historical Soc. 1905), 90; Vis. Glos. (Harl. Soc. xxi), 257-8. Owing to the confusion surrounding the Wogan pedigrees in general, Margaret’s father is a very elusive figure. He may have been Sir Henry Wogan (d.1475) of Wiston, Pemb., or his namesake (perhaps an uncle) who died bef. mid 1434: R.A. Griffiths, Prinicipality of Wales, i. 130, 150-1.
