 Philippa Chaucer's Tomb in Hampshire
Philippa's tomb was found buried beneath the floor of the church's chancel but was moved to a modern niche in the wall of the nave, as seen above.
In fact, it was almost exclusively used by Katheryn Swynford or her relatives (Roet wheels are found at the Ewelme tombs of Thomas Chaucer and his daughter Alice, Duchess of Suffolk and on the ceiling of a divinity school attended by Katheryn's son Henry Beaufort).
The idea of a Roet patrimony is further clouded unlikely due to Payne Roet and perhaps a cousin seeking their fortunes outside of Hainault as well as the finding of a son of Payne and brother of Philippa and Katheryn named Walter.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Geoffrey Chaucer
Thomas Chaucer's mother was Philippa Roet, daughter of Sir Paon or Payne de Roet Guienne king at arms.
Roet had another daughter, Catherine, widow of Sir Hugh Swynford, who was for Gaunt's mistress and eventually his third wife.
The grants made to Philippa, his wife ceased in 1387, so that we may suppose she was then dead; during the springs of 1388 Chaucer was obliged to sell two of his pensions; in 1390 he was twice in one day robbed of the king's money, but was excused from repaying it.

 Swynford Navigation
Certainly, this branch of the Roet family is rather obscure and does not appear to be directly related to the landbaron Lords of Roeulx family line, which is assumed to have held a considerable estate in and around the town of Le Rouelx, 8 miles northeast of Mons.
We know Katheryn Roet,, the youngest daughter, eventually became associated with the retinue of Blanche of Lancaster, as she is described as Blanche Swynford, damoiselles a les dites deux filles de Lancastre in a 1369 warderobe account providing mourning clothes for the funeral services for Queen Philippa who died in that year (31:172-3).
On the other hand, her brother Walter and sister Philippa are found in various households of Queen Philippa of Hainault's children by 1355/6, so there is no reason not to assume that Katheryn may well have been placed in a royal household considerably earlier than 1369.

 Geoffrey Chaucer - Books and Biography
There is no certain information of his life from 1361 until c.1366, when he perhaps married Philippa Roet, the sister of John Gaunt's future wife, and one of Queen Philippa's ladies.
Philippa apparently gave him two sons, 'little Lewis', to whom Chaucer addressed A Treatise on the Astrolabe (1391), and Thomas, who was later highly successful in public service.
Philippa died in 1387 and Chaucer enjoyed Gaunt's patronage throughout his life.

Seven years later, on a June 1367, Edward gave him an annuity of 20 marks for life, as to dilectus valettus noster, and he rose to be esquire at the end of the next year.
Meanwhile, at a time earlier than that of his own pension, on 12 September 1366, another of half the amount had been granted to Philippa Chaucer, one of the damsels of the queen’s chamber: and this Philippa, beyond reasonable doubt, must have been the poet’s wife.
If she was born Philippa Roet or Rouet, daughter of Sir Payn Roet, a Hainault knight, and sister of Katharine Rouet or Swynford, third wife of John of Gaunt, Chaucer’s undisputed patronage by “time-honoured Lancaster” would have been a matter of course.

The Tales include a Knight who could have stepped from a twelfth-century chanson de geste; yet they also offer the spectacle of the Knight's caste being aped, almost parodied, and virtually shouted down by a sword-carrying peasant, the Miller.
