Margaret de Standish (Everingham) - Incorrect parentage?

Margaret is listed as having been born in 1292.

However her "parents" Adam De Everingham (1279) Adam, 1st Baron Everingham and Clarice De La Warre (1280) Clarice de Everingham would have been 13 and 12 at the time.

Her parents also did not marry until 1308.

So it would seem that perhaps these are not the correct parents for Margaret?

She's listed as born circa 1292, which means she could have been born 5 or even 16 years later, which would make her parent's birthdates more realistic, and their marriage date more consistent. I that is so, her children's birth dates would have to be later. I see that they're all circa as well. So I think an uncertainty in dates would be an alternative explaination to wrong parents.
