Page "Joan of Acre" Paragraph 26

Less than four months after her death, Joan ’ s father, Edward I died.

Joan's widower, Ralph de Monthermer, lost the title of Earl of Gloucester soon after the deaths of his wife and father-in-law.

The earldom of Gloucester was given to Joan ’ s son from her first marriage, Gilbert, who was its rightful holder.

Monthermer continued to hold a nominal earldom in Scotland, which had been conferred on him by Edward I, until his death.
