Notes: She married William Cheney (eb1538-a will proves that William died in 1608) William was a descendant of the Cheney's of Shurland located at Fenn Ditton. This branch of the family descended from Henry Cheney (eb 1320) who is believed to have been a son of Sir William De Cheney(eb 1270). This marriage rejoined the two branches of the family for the second time-the first being the 1268 marriage of Sir Alexander Cheney (eb1255) and Agnes De Saye (eb1250) in 1268. Both branches of the family had lost extensive wealth and property shortly before the marriage of Frances and William Cheney. AFT this the family lived in less exalted social circles. Frances and William founded a branch of the Cheney family which has lived for centuries in Lincolnshire where their descendants have prospered as merchants, apothecaries and saddlers.
