  • Notes 
    • Countess of Ulster.

      The earliest surviving record in which Geoffrey Chaucer is named is a 1357 entry in the account book of her household, in which Chaucer is the recipient of clothing and a small gift "for neccessaries at Christmas." He appears to have been one of her retainers, possibly a page, and was connected with her household until at least 1360. When Prince Lionel came of age in 1359, her household and his merged and Chaucer became one of his retainers.
