Eligible Ladies of Salisbury
Many women live in the county, but these are the ones who are available and have the largest holdings — or other reasons to be worthy of marriage to you.
Lady Adwen (Glory 740; APP 18): The beautiful young (but marriageable) daughter of Sir Bles, who was killed in battle.
Her holding would make her husband a banneret and a rich knight. Holdings: 2 demesne manors, 4 enfeoffed manors.
Lady Elaine Of Durnford Lady Elaine (Glory 1,258; APP 18): Elaine is a beautiful woman whose first husband was killed by her base-born lover a
few years ago; the lover was subsequently hanged for killing a knight. She is rich, but considered an unfaithful hussy by every
another woman in the county.
Holdings: 4 demesne manors.
Lady Gwiona of Netheravon (Glory 856; APP 16): Gwiona is the second handmaiden of Countess Ellen.
She is the heiress of two manors. Her last four suitors all were killed in war shortly after proposing to her, but the priest says she is not really unlucky. Holdings: 2 demesne manors. SET TO BE MARRIED IN SPRING OF 491 TO Sir Godfree
Lady Indeg of Southcott (Glory 4,140, APP 8): This 40-year-old woman is the richest heiress of the county. She holds 2 manors (each with a loyal knight), and 3 until her death. She has been widowed twice and so can choose her own husband this time. However, she is lonely and might like a dashing young knight to keep her company.
Holdings: 2 enfoeffed manors, plus £2 extra income/year; 14 Glory/year. Widow’s Gifts: 3 enfoeffed manors; 18 Glory/year.
