It is doubtful that Lorette (or Lora) le Zouche was the mother of Alice de
Sanford, wife of Robert de Vere. Lorette had a manor in Wiltshire as her
maritagium, which property she settled on a niece. Lorette's action is
typical of other childless women in this period who gave or sold theiir
property as they neared death. I hope this helps. DR
