b. a; d; bap. Kempston, 20 Oct. 1395, CIPM, xxi. 558. There is some doubt over the date of Daubeney’s birth. His proof of age suggests that he was born in 1393, but this dating is at variance with the evidence of his elder brother’s probable date of birth. The year has been corrected on the assumption that he would have sought to prove his age at the earliest opportunity. 2nd s. of Sir Giles Daubeney† (d.1403) of Kempston and South Petherton by Margaret (d. 30 June 1420), poss. da. of Sir John Beauchamp; h. of his bro.
