  Joan Beaufort
Along with her three brothers, Joan was privately declared legitimate by their cousin Richard II of England in 1390, but for some reason their father secured another such declaration from Parliament in January 1397.
Joan died on 13 November 1440 and was entombed next to her mother in the sanctuary of Lincoln Cathedral.
Joan's is the smaller of the two tombs; both were decorated with brass plates -- full-length representations of them on the tops, and small shields bearing coats of arms around the sides -- but those were damaged or destroyed in 1644 during the English Civil War.

 James II
James II, King of Scotland, the only surviving son of James I and his wife Jane, daughter of John Beaufort, Earl of Somerset, was born on the 16th of October 1430.
When about 1439 Queen Jane was married to Sir James Stewart, the knight of Lorne, Livingstone obtained the custody of the young king, whose minority was marked by fierce hostility between the Douglases and the Crichtons, with Livinstone first on one side and then on the other.
His reign is a period of some importance in the legislative history of Scotland, as measures were passed with regard to the tenure of land, the reformation of the coinage, and the protection of the poor, while the organization for the administration of justice was greatly improved.

Margaret Beaufort (born May 31 1443 at the Kingston Lacy estate in Dorset – June 29 1509) was the daughter of John Beaufort, 1st Duke of Somerset and Margaret Beauchamp of Bletso.

She was Lady Joan Beaufort, a close relative of the English king, Henry VI.
It was probably through Joan Beaufort's influence that the Treaty of London was agreed in December 1423, releasing James for a ransom of £40,000.
The result was that on 20 February 1437, at about midnight, he was assassinated and his queen badly injured in the Dominican Friary in Perth by his own uncle, Walter, Earl of Atholl (a son of Robert II's second marriage) and a group of resentful fellow conspirators.

After her husband, James IV of Scotland, was killed, she became regent for her infant son, James V, but her marriage in 1514 to Archibald Douglas, 6th earl of Angus, led to the loss of the regency to John Stuart, duke of Albany, who soon obtained custody of the king, and Margaret fled to England.
