biographical and/or anecdotal:

notes or source:

LDS

There is another John Cobham (born 1273) son of another Henry Cobham but he died in 1314 before Joan was born.

All were the sons and the grandsons of *John Cobham (born 1220) and *Maude Fitzbenedict.

Also there are two Joan Beauchamps daughters of John Beauchamps.

The 1308 Joan could not marry in 1308 for a 1316 daughter *Joan Cobham.

therefore the 1280 Joan is used.
