Disputed origins

Medlands places this Anne Percy as the daughter of Henry Percy and Eleanor Neville, so, the sister of the Henry Percy who married Eleanor Poynings, rather than his daughter.

The remaining question is where Anne was born. Collins's Peerage (vol. 2, p.291, 1812 edn) says that she "was born at Dugnanis [note: so it seems written in Cavell's Roll, but is thought to mean Dunganess in Scotland]."

SEE - http://www.medievalgenealogy.org.uk/cp/hungerford.shtml
I can't find anywhere called Dunganess in Scotland. There's a Dungeness in Kent, but it doesn't seem a likely place for the birth of the daughter of an earl of Northumberland.

More probably, the place referred to is in fact Dagenham, in Essex, where the 2nd earl held a manor known as "Dagenhams and Cockerels". A Google search shows that this was quite often spelt "Dagnams". So I should think that Collins's got to "Dugnanis" by misreading the first "a" as a "u", and the "m" as "ni" (in many 15th-century documents "m" and "ni" would be completely interchangeable readings).

If that's the correct solution, I'm not sure whether it helps with the chronology. The Complete Peerage says that in 1443 the earl bound himself (briefly) to withdraw no more than 7 miles from London, "save to his manor of Dagenham, Essex", which perhaps implies that was his usual residence near London.

Sir Thomas Hungerford of Rowden (died 1469), the eldest son of Robert Hungerford, 3rd Baron Hungerford, lived chiefly at Rowden, near Chippenham. After giving some support to Edward IV and the Yorkists he joined in Warwick's conspiracy to restore Henry VI in 1469, was attainted, and was executed at Salisbury. He was buried in the chapel of Farleigh Castle.[1]

Sir Thomas married Anne, daughter of Henry Percy, 3rd Earl of Northumberland, who married two husbands after his death—Sir Lawrence Raynesford and Sir Hugh Vaughan—and, dying on 5 July 1522, was buried in St. Margaret's Church, Westminster.[1]

Sir Thomas left by Anne an only child, Mary, 4th Baroness Hungerford, who became the ward of William, Lord Hastings, and in 1480 married Sir Edward (afterwards Lord) Hastings, her guardian's son. The attainders on her father and grandfather were reversed in her favour in 1485, and her husband was summoned to Parliament as Lord Hungerford. George Hastings, 1st Earl of Huntingdon, was her son.

Sir Hugh Vaughan (? – 28 August 1536)[1] was born in Wales as a commoner to unknown parents, who later became Governor of Jersey (or Captain).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_Vaughan_(Governor_of_Jersey)_

His first, or possibly second, wife was Anne Percy the daughter of Henry Percy, 3rd Earl of Northumberland, and the widow of both Sir Thomas Hungerford of Rowden and Sir Laurence Raynesford.[1] Anne died on 5 July 1522, and sometime after that he married his second, or possibly third, wife who was named Blanche, the daughter of John Castell.[3]

He had at least nine children. One son named Rowland, and three daughters whose mother was probably Anne,[3] and three sons, and four daughters whose mother was Blanche.

Vaughan died on 28 August 1536, and was buried with Anne Percy in the chapel of St Michael in Westminster Abbey.[1] His widow Blanche died on 8 December 1553, and was buried at the church of St Mary Magdalene in Littleton, in Middlesex (now Surrey).
