Elizabeth de Vere (died 14 or 16 August 1375) was the daughter of John de Vere, 7th Earl of Oxford and Maud de Badlesmere,[1] and the wife of Sir Hugh Courtenay (died c. 1348), then John de Mowbray, 3rd Baron Mowbray, and then Sir William de Cossington.
Before 3 September 1341 she married Sir Hugh Courtenay (died c. 1348), the eldest son of Hugh Courtenay, 10th Earl of Devon (12 July 1303 – 2 May 1377), and Margaret de Bohun (d. 16 December 1391), daughter of Humphrey Bohun, Earl of Hereford and Essex (c.1276 – 16 March 1322), by Elizabeth (d. 5 May 1316), the daughter of King Edward I.[2][3]
They had one son, Sir Hugh Courtenay, who died without issue on 20 February 1374.[2][1]
Sir Hugh Courtenay died shortly after Easter term 1348,[1] and was buried at Ford Abbey, Somerset.[2][1] While on progress through Dorset, Queen Philippa is said to have 'placed a piece of cloth of gold as an oblation on his tomb' on 2 September 1349.[1]
Elizabeth de Vere married, secondly, before 4 May 1351, the marriage later being validated by papal dispensation of that date, John de Mowbray, 3rd Baron Mowbray (d. 4 October 1361).[1][4]
She married thirdly, before 18 January 1369, Sir William de Cossington,[1] son and heir of Stephen de Cossington of Cossington in Aylesford, Kent. Not long after the marriage she and her new husband surrendered themselves to the Fleet prison for debt.[5][4] According to Archer, the cause may have been her stepson, John de Mowbray, 4th Baron Mowbray's, prosecution of her for waste of his estates; he had been awarded damages against her of almost £1000.[6]
She died 14 or 16 August 1375.[1][4][7]
