      • According to Cahiers de Saint Louis page 917 they had a daughter Margaret who married Sir William Eure.
        No dates.

        Now I find the same Robert and Agnes had a daughter Margaret who about 1482 married Sir Ralph Bigod, of Settrington, 1457-1515.

        This Sir Ralph Bigod married (2) Alice and (3) Agnes Constable. I do not know who the parents are for this Agnes Constable but as a widow in 1516 she married Sir Ralph Eure, son of Sir William Eure and Margaret Constable, aforementioned.

        Somehow I wonder what is going on, does Cahiers de Saint Louis have it wrong? Did Sir Robert Constable and Agnes Wentworth have two daughters called Margaret?

        Leo:

        I think the confusion arises because Sir Robert Constable of
        Flamborough and his wife Agnes Wentworth appear to have had daughters
        named Margaret and Margery (at least per Clay's edition of Dugdale's
        1664-5 visitation of Yorkshire), and the names of the two seem to
        often be confused. According to Dugdale Margaret m. Sir William Eure
        and Margery m. Sir Ralph Bigod.

        Sir Ralph Bigod's last wife seems to be usually called Agnes Constable of Dromonby. I don't know her parents are, although one recent compilation says her father's name was Robert. I've seen a pedigree in a different visitation of Yorkshire which says that the family of Constable of Dromonby descended from a son of a 2nd marriage of the Sir Robert Constable who mar. Agnes Wentworth, but the Dromonby pedigree doesn't show an Agnes, and Clay's edition of Dugdale doesn't show the supposed 2nd marrriage - or any family of Dromonby. All very confusing....
