From Prince's "Worthies of Devon", p 748:
"In the mother of Nicholas Wadham, the last of this name, who lies buried there (Branscombe Church, Devon); which may administer to us a probable ground to suppose, that he also was born in that parish. There is a noble monument erected to her memory with this inscription, which time hath rendered something imperfect:
Here Lieth intomb'd the Body of a virtuous and antient Gentlewoman, descended of the antient House of the Plantagenets, sometime of Cornwall, namely Joan one of the Daughters and Heirs unto John Tregarthin in the County of Cornwall, Esq; She was first married unto John Kelleway, Esq; who had by her much issue; After his Death she was married to John Wadham of Meryfeild in the County of Somerset, Esq; and by him had - - - Children. She lived a virtuous and godly Life, and died in an honourable Age, Sept. - - - in the Year of Christ 1581."
Her IPM is lengthy and full of property rights and dispositions. She was the widow of John Kelloway of Columpton. Her tomb shows Joan's two husbands Sir John Kelloway, backed by five boys and nine girls and John WADHAM and his issue Nicholas and three dau. She is descended from Richard Earl of Cornwall.
