 | | Margaret Roos, dowager Lady Botreaux and Lady Burgh, was born circa 1431, the daughter of Thomas, 8th Lord Roos of Belvoir Castle and Eleanor Beauchamp (born 1407 at Wedgenock, Warwickshire, second daughter of Richard Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick). |
 | | Margaret had two brothers from her parent’s first marriage; Thomas Roos, born at Conisborough Castle, South Yorkshire, on the 9th September 1427, who became 9th Lord Roos, and was, to the bitter end, a staunch Lancastrian. |
 | | Margaret was not a rich heiress nor a young girl, had to wait for a husband, and when one came along she was in her late twenties and he, in his fifties. |
