  ... widow of John Comyn, of Badenoch, Scotland, Prince's Harwell (in Harwell), Berkshire, etc. (killed at the Battle of Bannockburn 24 Jun 1314), and daughter of John Wake, Knt., 1st Lord Wake, of Liddell Strength, Cumberland, Bourne, Lincolnshire, etc., by Joan, daughter of Guillaume (or William) de Fiennes, Knt.
  
  In Aug 1314 the king granted Margaret, late the wife of John Comyn, for her sustenance and that of her son, Aymer Comyn, the manors of Prince's Harwell (in Harwell), Berkshire, Geddington, Northamptonshire, and Mansfield, Nottinghamshire (with its soke), together with the farm of Linby, and the mills of Carburton, Nottinghamshire. In Dec 1316, however, she was ordered to deliver the manor of Prince's Harwell (in Harwell), Berkshire to the king's niece, Margaret, widow of Peter de Gavaston, Earl of Cornwall.
  
  His (Edward of Woodstock) widow, Margaret, presented to the church of Ufford, Northamptonshire in 1332. In 1340 she sued in the Exchequer for herself and for the king a garnishment against Abbot of Ramsey in respect of L50 per annum. The same year Thomas de Braynford, of London, fishmonger brought a write of debt against her. Margaret, Countess of Kent, was heiress in 1349 to her brother, Thomas Wake, 2nd Lord Wake, by which she became according to modern doctrine suo jure Lady Wake.

  MARGARET Wake, widow of JOHN Comyn of Badenoch, daughter of JOHN Wake of Liddel, Cumberland, Lord Wake & his wife Joan --- ([1299/1300]-from the Black death 29 Sep 1349). The Chronicle of Meaux, in Yorkshire, names "Thomam, Johannem et Margaretam" as the children of "Johannem", son of "Baldewinum de Wake", adding that Margaret married "Edmundus comes Cantiæ, filius regis Edwardi primi". She succeeded her brother in 1349 as Baroness Wake.

  Wiki (April 2015):
  Margaret Wake, suo jure 3rd Baroness Wake of Liddell and Countess of Kent (c. 1297 - 29 September 1349) was the wife of Edmund of Woodstock, 1st Earl of Kent, the youngest surviving son of Edward I of England and Margaret of France.
  
  She was the daughter of John Wake, 1st Baron Wake of Liddell, (son of Baldwin Wake and Hawise de Quincy) and Joan de Fiennes. By her father, she was descended from Llywelyn the Great, Prince of Gwynedd and Joan, Lady of Wales, the illegitimate daughter of John I of England. Her mother, Joan de Fiennes, was a daughter of William de Fiennes and Blanche (Lady of Loupeland) de Brienne. She was a sister of Margaret de Fiennes, making Wake a cousin of Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March. Joan de Fiennes also descended from Emperor Jean de Brienne and Berengaria of León, herself the granddaughter of Eleanor of England, Queen of Castile.
  
  Margaret married John Comyn (c. 1294-1314) around 1312, son of the John Comyn who was murdered by Robert the Bruce in 1306. Her husband John died at the Battle of Bannockburn, and their only child, Aymer Comyn (1314-1316) died as a toddler. She married for a second time, to Edmund of Woodstock, 1st Earl of Kent. They received a dispensation in October 1325, and the wedding probably took place at Christmas.
  
  Through her marriage to Edmund of Woodstock (who was executed for treason in 1330), she was the mother of two short-lived Earls of Kent, of Margaret and Joan of Kent (wife of Edward, the Black Prince). The pregnant Margaret and her children were confined to Salisbury Castle, and her brother Thomas Wake, 2nd Baron Wake of Liddell was accused of treason but later pardoned. When King Edward III of England reached his majority and overthrew the regents, he took in Margaret and her children and treated them as his own family. She succeeded briefly as Baroness Wake of Liddell in 1349, but died during an outbreak of the plague that autumn.
  
  Margaret and Edmund's descendants include King Henry VII and queen consorts Anne Neville, Elizabeth of York, and Catherine Parr.
