Damerel / de Forz/ Courtenay[edit]

I have removed the following text from the article, pending clarification:

"In 1293 the 2nd Earl's father had been declared heir to the Earl of Albemarle, following the death of the Countess of Albemarle, and he thereby acquired the estates of the Damerels, including Milton Damerel.^[1] etc.

This seems a bit confused, or else needs to be explained in more detail. The correct relationship alluded to is (see article Earl of Devon): Baldwin de Redvers, 6th Earl of Devon was succeeded by his son Baldwin de Redvers, 7th Earl of Devon (d.1262), who died without progeny. His sister, Isabella de Forz, widow of William de Forz, 4th Earl of Albemarle, became Countess of Devon suo jure. Her children predeceased her and she had no grandchildren.

This de Forz family is apparently not the same as the family called Damerel. If the two were related, needs to be explained in article. See Feudal barony of Plympton for background. Pole does not mention such relationship.(Lobsterthermidor (talk) 15:16, 26 March 2016 (UTC))[reply]
