Notes for Eve Clavering Baroness Clavering
m. (2) Robt de Ufford, (3) Robert of Benhale, Lord Benhale.
Betw. 2 and 3, lived with James Audley and had 2 children.

In the Ufford article (CP Vol XII/2 pp.154-155 and notes) CP concedes that, by modern theory, she was 3rd Baroness Clavering, though without any of the estates, and by which her son John was the 4th baron Clavering.

CP also says in note (f) of p.156 that she was descended from Robert FitzWalter and his wife Sybil, dau of Ralph de Chesney, founders of the priory of St Faith, Norfolk, and from their son William de Chesney, founder of the abbey of Sibton,  Suffolk, giving various references:

(iii) Round, Essex Arch Soc, Trans, NS, vol viii, pp. 192-8
