William Willoughby, 5th Baron Willoughby de Eresby KG (c.1370 – 4 December 1409) was an English baron.
Origins
William Willoughby was the son of Robert Willoughby, 4th Baron Willoughby de Eresby, by his first wife, Alice de Skipwith, daughter of Sir William de Skipwith, Chief Baron of the Exchequer.[2] He had four half-brothers by his father's second wife, Margery la Zouche: Robert, Thomas, John and Brian.[3]
After the death of Margery la Zouche (d. 18 October 1391), his father married thirdly Elizabeth le Latimer (d. 5 November 1395), suo jure 5th Baroness Latimer, daughter of William Latimer, 4th Baron Latimer, and widow of John Neville, 3rd Baron Neville de Raby. By this marriage, William had a half-sister, Margaret Willoughby, who died unmarried. By her first marriage Elizabeth Latimer had a son, John Neville, 6th Baron Latimer (c.1382 – 10 December 1430), and a daughter, Elizabeth Neville, who married her step-brother, Sir Thomas Willoughby (died c. 20 August 1417).[4]
etc.
Marriages and issue
Willoughby married twice:
Firstly, soon after 3 January 1383, Lucy le Strange, daughter of Roger le Strange, 5th Baron Strange of Knockin, by Aline, daughter of Edmund FitzAlan, 9th Earl of Arundel, by whom he had two sons and three daughters:[13]

  • Robert Willoughby, 6th Baron Willoughby de Eresby, who married firstly, Elizabeth Montagu, and, secondly, Maud Stanhope.
  • Sir Thomas Willoughby, who married Joan Arundel, daughter and co-heiress of Sir Richard Arundel by his wife, Alice. Their descendants, who include Catherine Willoughby, Duchess of Suffolk, inherited the barony. Catherine became the 12th baroness and the title descended through her children by her second husband, Richard Bertie.
  • Elizabeth Willoughby, who married Henry Beaumont, 5th Baron Beaumont (d.1413).
  • Margery Willoughby, who married William FitzHugh, 4th Baron FitzHugh. Their son, the 5th Baron, would marry Lady Alice Neville, sister of Warwick the Kingmaker. Alice was a grandniece of Willoughby's second wife, Lady Joan Holland. The 5th baron and his wife Alice were great-grandparents to queen consort Catherine Parr.
  • Margaret Willoughby, who married Sir Thomas Skipwith.
